Staycation

Spencer ended up working every day in May but 6, and we were all feeling a little burned out so we ran away to the Westin, in Princeville. The weather was funny, because that is the rainy part of the island, but it was dry and hot up there, while all yucky and rainy down in Lihue. We didn't mind a bit (although our sun-burnt shoulders might!). We just hung out and played in the pools all day, got shave ice in Hanalei, fed Koi in the ponds ands just enjoyed our time together.  Lucy even slept through the night for the first AND second time. I kept waking up wondering how she was though! We love these little ones so very much and are so thankful to be their parents. 

Mad loved the waterslide!

All tuckered out and only the 1st night!

Even Lucy enjoyed the water a few times

Goosie had fun too!

Goosie in a Bumbo!

Lucy is most often called by Goosie now. First it was Lucy Goosie, now it's evolved into just Goosie. Who knew that would happen? We love it and we love her so much! I saw on my friend's blog pictures of her baby just a few weeks older sitting in a Bumbo so we tried to sit Goosie in one. She's not a fan, yet, but we keep trying! She's just too cute!

Don't mind the drool :)

Aidan's May Day/Praise Day

Aidan's school put on their annual May Day performance. He was so darling in his performance and he was so serious about it. He kept coming home and talking about how the other kids wouldn't pay attention and kept messing up. We love him so much!

Sienna 1st Band Concert

Sienna has taken after Spencer and is very gifted musically. Not only does she play the guitar, piano, and ukulele, she played the tuba in band this year. She has gotten very good at it and really enjoys it. She'll be playing it again next year. We loved getting to see her perform with her band. We only have 2 pictures, and they are not very clear, but we love seeing them anyway. Way to go, Sienna! We are so proud of you!

The Long-Awaited Lucy pictures!

Here they are! There are so many of them, but I just couldn't decide which ones are my favorites! My friend, Heidi, took them for me and we got so many great shots, even with Lucy crying most of the time. I love them, especially since she seems so much bigger already. Thanks Heidi! Love ya more than you know!

We are alive!

I am sorry that I haven't posted in so long. We're kind of boring and not too much going on besides, work, school, homework, and constantly nursing my chunky monkey! Aidan has pneumonia right now, just like last year. Thanks to his previous bout as a baby with RSV he gets it pretty much anytime a cold settles in his chest, poor little man! Lucy weighed 13 lbs. at her 2 month appointment, which is 95th percentile! Her head and length were around the 50th percentile. I've never had such a big baby before! Aidan was always in the 50% range for everything, Mad was always 30% and little Sienna ranged between 15-25 for weight and 25% for length. So Lucy really is a giant compared to the others (I thank the Lord every day that I wasn't pregnant even one more day with her! :) Who knows how big she would have been?) but it is so fun and yet very bittersweet. Because she's my last it's heartbreaking to see her getting so big so fast, but I love watching them grow and change and see her sweet little personality starting to show. I really am going to get the pictures we had taken of Luce and get them on here this week. We haven't had many beach days because it's been rainy when Spence is not on-call. But thanks for still checking up on us! I promise I will try to be better!
