If there is one thing that I LOVE to talk about, its our kids! I know I can totally drive people nuts telling stories about them, but sometimes I can't help myself cause they are to stinking sweet not to talk about!
Our oldest is Brock. He will be 4 on July 25th. He likes to say that he'll be 4, then 5, and then he says he'll be 28! Such a crazy kid! He is such a joy and we love to say that he is one-of-a-kind! He has always had such a special personality, he never meets a stranger and is so polite. Brock has the biggest and sweetest heart! He's my angel! He is such a funny character and is too smart for his own good sometimes! Brian and Brock are best buddies. Brock is his Daddy's shadow, he is loving the summer time since his Daddy his home and they've been able to spend lots of time together working in the yard, fixing the boat, feeding our fish, washing cars, and just hanging out!
When Brock was 1 we started trying to get pregnant again and that we did...
With TRIPLETS!!!
Talk about the shock of our lives! It was the coolest, scariest, most amazing experience of my life to find out I was carrying not 1, not 2, but 3 babies inside of me! But we found out at about 13 weeks that baby C had some health issues and after seeing another specialist in Atlanta found out that it had a limb body wall defect and would either pass away during the pregnancy or would be still born. It was such a test of our faith but we clung to our Savior to get through the next few weeks and months. Baby C went to be with the Lord when I was about 17 or 18 weeks pregnant. We are so thankful that we have wonderful families, friends, and a great church family that just loved on us and helped us through the most difficult time of our lives.
Andi & Cooper continued to thrive throughout my pregnancy and were born via C-section at 35 weeks! Since Andi & Cooper are our last babies, I am trying to soak up every minute and really appreciate them and Brock at every stage! They just turned 2 on April 17th!
Andi Leigh is my little DIVA! She is 2 going on 12 (I used to hate it when people would say that to me when I was younger!) She has such a funny little personality! I know she's my daughter, so I'm a little biased, but she is GORGEOUS!!! She has a mind of her own and is so independent already. Her newest word is 'self', she wants to do everything on her own! I am so proud to have a daughter, because I am SUPER close to my mama and I wanted a little girl so we could have a relationship like my mom and I have. Andi used to be a major mama's girl, but now she goes back and forth between me and Brian!
And last but certainly not least, Cooper David. He is such a special little man. Words can't even explain how sweet he is. He has such a laid back personality and is super calm and observant for the most part. But he has his moments when he goes 'crazy' like we call it and he acts super funny and spastic! He is beginning to shadow Brock and always wanting to be doing what "Bwock" is doing! I'll admit when he was a baby, he was the most difficult because he was colicky, but once he got over it, he's been a wonderful baby! He isn't a clingy baby, but he has gotten mama-itis pretty bad lately. And I LOVE it! It makes me feel so good that I can make him feel comfortable and he'll get calmed down if he's upset once mama comes to the rescue!
If you can't tell, I ADORE my children (and hubby!) more than anything in this world. They are the reason I was created! My dream was always be a wife and mommy~So I am living my dream! (Most days!)
Stay tuned for the many adventures of ABC mama!
