Happy 3rd Birthday Troy! April 8th

Three years ago we welcomed Troy James Heugly to our family. I can't believe he is 3 already. Troy was my smallest baby....I will never forget the first time I saw him and when the doctor put him on my chest. I remember saying..."he's so little." When Grant was born he weighed 9lbs 8 ounces...so a 7 lb 9 oz baby was nothing! Along with the great smile and scrumptious dimples, Troy brings adventure and excitement to our family. We love him so much! Happy Birthday Troy!

Troy loves tools.

One of my favorite photos of Troy.

Check out the dimples!

Spring Break

Inbetween rain showers, the kids and I went to Byrom Elementary to get out of the house. It was sooo cold! I just love spring break in Oregon...don't you??? What a joke! My kids have been good sports though. It is nice to sleep in and take it easy. Nothing too exciting.... A nightmare trip to Target, including 2 carts and 5 kids, (why do I think I can go there?) a birthday party with Grandpa, and a little bowling. Only a few more days till MONDAY! I will survive...I will survive!

I think she has outgrown the baby swing

Do you see the pure enjoyment on his face as Troy tries to kick me?

"hang in there Troy, next time you'll think twice before trying to kick mommy!"

Josh absolutely LOVED going down the slide...no fear!

A tale of two teeth!

This week Grant lost his first tooth! It has been awhile since the last time we had a toothless mouth. It is so fun to go through the excitement over loosing a first tooth with each kid! I must admit I was a little sad to see him loose his first tooth. It brought back memories of when he was a little baby, and having his first teeth start pushing through. It seems so long ago........

Our little leprechaun

Speaking of teeth.... I was looking through pictures on my camera and Troy said "mom, take my picture." He then stuck his face right in the lens. This cracks me up whenever I see it. It shows his latest battle wound...his front tooth! A few weeks ago Troy jumped from a table (don't ask why) and hit the back of our couch...his tooth took the brunt of the impact. I was so sad to see his tooth go grey. Whenever one of my kids would hit their mouth I would just hold my breath and hope that nothing happened to their teeth. Unlike Grants tooth that I was sad to see go, I look forward to the day Troy looses this tooth! Troy has been our most accident prone kid! If you look closely you can also see his scars on his forehead.

Today I decided I can't stand my hair! I need a new style. What do you think? The glasses are optional...I am undecided about them~
