How Time Goes By...

I spent last week up at my parents visiting while the kids were off track. It was really great to see the folks, spend time with my sister and visit old friends.



We had a birthday party for all the March birthdays....of my parents eight grandchildren SIX of them were born in March. We have one on the 5th, two on the 10th, one on the 23rd, 24th, and 26th. Intense huh?! Poor Ali is in February and Eli is October, lucky for him my sister is due with her fourth in October...Eli won't be alone for long!

I was looking through my pics of last week and had to include this one of the three 2007 March birthdays.

Jack, Owen, Gunner

My sister, sister-in-law and I were due in February, March and April of 2007 and ended up all delivering in March! So these three little guys were all born within three weeks of each other...pretty cool. I included a pic of them last year in April. They were only about four weeks old....they've grown and changed soooo much!!

P.S. For those of you who may, or may not, be interested in my blog design. I created it myself using the instruction given on the following website:
SJH Blog Design

I got the really cute paper from this website:
Scrapbook Flair

Perhaps it's because I didn't have someone actually showing me what to do, or maybe I'm just a little slow, but it took me a couple of hours to get it finished...I'm pretty happy with the results though. Also, now that I've gotten all of the links set up in the HTML, I can switch out new paper very easily by just inserting the new link....much easier than creating it in the first place.

(I did try and leave this info on your comment page, Em, but it wouldn't let me leave any comments...I'm not sure why....just FYI!)

Yes, I go through the same thing....I get an itch for sewing or doing projects, and then I put them away and never touch them for a year or so....I just got this sewing machine for Christmas, so I am excted right now, next year will be a different story! It is like scrapbooking, I dont think I have pulled that stuff out for months and months...one day I will!! haha Crazy about all the March Birthdays!

Cute pics. Amazing how fast those little guys have grown. I will see why you're not able to leave comments. Very strange! Thanks for the info on creating the cute background.

Not sure what the deal is....but I wanted to let you know the pics of the boys are so cute. I also had a good laugh over Dane's funny sayings....I would have a very difficult time keeping a straight face when he started adding "additional" things to be checked off....I loved it!!!
