Zoo

We have been wanting to take the kids to the zoo all summer but the weather has been so unbearable. So, this week when we heard it was going to be so nice Aaron took the day off and we went.

Liam was excited to see the dinosaurs!

The bears were giving us quite the show!

Lunch Time!

 Even the girls had fun!

We all had a great time and look forward to taking the kids again soon.



Happy Monday!

Our news of the week is that our little Charlotte is officially on the move!

^{I am reminding myself on this beautiful Monday morning that God is here and I need to stop and listen, because He is speaking to me.}

¹⁸ The Lord is near to all who call on him,
to all who call on him in truth.
¹⁹ He fulfills the desires of those who fear him; he hears their cry and saves them.

Psalm 145:18-19

Rain rain go away...

Wishing it would stop raining.....

One year ago...

Today is the day one year ago God changed our lives forever. We had our ultrasound at 20 weeks and found out for the first time that we were expecting not one baby but two.


¹⁴ For this reason I kneel before the Father, ¹⁵ from whom every family in heaven and on earth derives its name. ¹⁶ I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, ¹⁷ so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, ¹⁸ may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, ¹⁹ and to know this love that surpasses knowledge —that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.
 ²⁰ Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us,
Ephesians 3:14-20


This is the verse that God immediately put in my heart after we found out we were expecting twins. He has blessed us beyond what my human mind could have ever imagined.


With that said God is faithful, as I look back on the past year He has given us favor and provided beyond what I could have ever asked. I am truly blessed beyond measure with three amazingly healthy children, which are  my little blessings from above.


Our first look...

30 week Pregnant with the girls!

Children's Museum

Last week during the unbearable hot stretch we took a family trip to the children's museum to be able to get out of the house and not die of heat. They had a curious George exhibit and we love George at our house so we wanted to take the kids.
If you are not familiar with the children's museum this is their mission statement. 
Minnesota Children's Museum is dedicated to providing children with a fun, hands-on and stimulating environment to explore and discover. The Museum helps to instill a life-long love of learning by nurturing the real-world skills children need to become engaged citizens in the future
Liam had so much fun we are thinking we will purchase a family pass to be able to go back a few more times this year. I am looking forward to taking the kids this winter when it's to cold to be outside.

Liam figuring out how to put it together

The girls had fun too!

My Blankee

Liam loves his blankee, Bullseye and the newest addition Bullseye's friend. They go every where and do every thing together. I am loving this stage with so much pretend play and little boy sweetness.

Show business

I wanted to try out my new chair I found while shopping with my Mom this past week end. So the girls and I had a 5 min photo session this morning. I will post a few more later.

Have a blessed Monday!
