Babies 1st Valentine's

All the firsts for the babies are so bittersweet. On one hand it is so great to experience them and on the other it means that they will never have that again and they are getting older. I wish we could just keep them small forever.

Yesterday we went to church then Brady and Cameron went to Grammie and Grandpa Brann's and Aubrey and Matthew went to Grammie and Grandpa Amadon's so Ben and I could go out for a Valentine's lunch. It was so weird to be sitting there alone without having to change diapers or give bottles. We took advantage of it and got groceries so we only needed one cart. Normally we take either the two double strollers and a cart or three carts to shop so this was so nice to be able to just go and get what we needed and go home.

We tried to get some good Valentine's pics but none of the babies were being very cooperative!

  1. Ahhh, it's nice that you and Ben had a little time alone on Valentine's Day. I know what you mean about all of the firsts being bittersweet. They do grow up so fast! Sweet little Aubrey with her earrings. Precious--and wasn't that daddy holding her while she had them done?

We've been FLOCKED!

Nine years ago this summer there was so much uncertainty, would Ben make it through his treatments?  Would I be able to carry all four babi...
