Now that all the little kiddos can crawl/walk Katie and I have found a new way to get them upstairs after we feed them. We used to have to pick them up one at a time and carry them upstairs but not anymore. Instead, we have taught them to climb up the stairs by themselves. Its a lot of fun for us and for them. I swear there is a little competition coming out of each of them to finish first each time they do it but who knows. Larkin has been finishing first lately but not in this particular race. This video shows a photo finish between Kade and his big sister Maggie. So, who is the big winner today you ask??? Well, you will just have to watch the video to find out now won't ya :)
P.S. The Trio's 1st Bday is only a mere weeks away so be on the lookout for a special invitation from mom to help us celebrate
Bitzy brought over a little tub of bubbles and the kids LOVE them. Katie was blowing them the other day so I decided to grab the camera and start shooting. Kade likes to try to eat the bubbles, Larkin chases the bubbles and Maggie likes to catch them with her face :) Check out the video below
On May 30th I celebrated my 35th Birthday. That Saturday my sweet wife surprised me with a party. It was at my Mom's house and a lot of fun. Katie had Moe's Southwest Cafe cater it with Taco's and Burritos as well as apps that my mom and aunt Becky made. The weather was great, Mom and Wills's new house was awesome and getting all the people I care about in the world together in one place was really really cool. In fact, besides our wedding last year and the birth of the kids this was one of the only times that all grandparents were together at the same time. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR PUTTING IT TOGETHER SWEETIE!!! Oh, and keeping quiet about it. I have no idea how you were able to not say anything. If It were me putting this together I probably would have told you the first day :)

Dang those some good lookin men!!!
35!!! I can only hope its as great at 34 was
So, every night we do a bath time with the kiddos. We used to bath all three of them separately but due to time constraints as well as the fact that the kids can sit and stand on their own Katie has started bathing all three together. It makes for some funny nights and some really great pictures. I have a lot more than below but we decided to try and limit the exposure of the boys little twig and berries and to be honest it seems like 90% of the pictures has one if not both the boys standing up and showing off what the good lord gave them. Here are a few G rated pics.

Father's Day was great. Katie and I took the Kiddo's to Belle Meade to eat lunch/brunch with Bitzy, Doc, Rusty, Dave and MaryBeth. The kids loved it because they got to sit in booster seats (even though their little heads were barely above the table) and eat crackers, waffles and even a little Cinnamon roll till they couldn't eat anymore. Lunch was great, the kids did great and it was fund hanging with the family.
Big Popi , DeDa, and Grandpa Todd - Katie, the trio and I wanted to tell you HAPPY FATHER'S DAY and we will see you soon. We LOVE you guys!
Outside Belle Meade just after Fathers Day Brunch. I swear they each at 2 full size waffles!

Its been about two weeks since Maggie took her first steps. In that two weeks she has taken great strides(Yep, I just did that) in her walking ability. This video was shot this morning. As you can see, she almost makes it across the room. That is until lil bro Kade comes barreling into the pic and interupts her concentration. Oh, and in case you were wondering about the boys. Well, lets just say that as of today they don't seem to care one iota whether or not they walk anytime soon. (Which is fine with us. Lord knows when Larkin starts walking what walls he will break down :)
Oh, and in case you were wondering about the last post and video. As in, where did it go? Well, lets just say there was some dirty laundry aired that Daddy did not see but was brought to our attention by some observant viewers that lead to the post being deleted from the site :) Oh well, I try but can't catch everything
