Our "Thankful" discussion at the Thanksgiving table this year..

Bryce was thankful for a healthy family and that Kadence is loving to read right now, he is thankful that I am tough and have had 3 children because if he had to do it we would have only 1!

Suria was thankful for her family and new healthy baby

Clarisse was thankful for our family

Kadence was thankful for Lila

If you ask Charlie not to smile for a picture you get immediate rebellion! It is super cute that he calls Lila "my girl" and in the hospital was saying "Mommy, sissy won't let me hold my girl, she won't give me my sister"

Baby Lila

Our precious little Lila Beau Nelson was born Friday 11/11/11 at 11:25am.

7lb 12 oz and 20.5inches(same length as Charlie) of total cuteness. She is really a combination of Charlie's coloring and Kadence's features. It is so fun to see them both in her little face!

Best Big Sister Ever!

I have to post this so I never forget....

Kadence found a dandelion last night and made a wish, she wished her sister would "Come out nice and healthy....tomorrow!"

She always says the sweetest things, she is what I like to call a "heart-melter".

3 Years Ago!

Happy Birthday Charlie

It has been 3 years already! Happy birthday to our goofy little man, we love you sooooo much! Tell little sister to stay put so we can party Sunday!

The pumpkin patch

Today we went to the local pumpkin patch and I caught a bit of Charlie's EXTREME obsession with pumpkins. You might be thinking as you watch this, "oh how cute, they must have just gotten there" but in fact he had been running around astounded by the pumpkins for 30 minutes at this point. His enthusiasm never waivered and we spent an entire hour picking out 2 pumpkins. This is Charlie's 4th pumpkin of the year and I am sure there will be a minimum of one more before Halloween due to our warm weather. Thanks to pumpkins Charlie pooped on the potty for me and everything. I am actually considering buying him a little gourd or something everytime he does it. If I can potty train him now I could get a couple weeks of no diapers before the baby arrives. (I am wishing out loud...)
