Our Fun Girl Summer!

First off, this picture captures my favorite moments of this newborn stage! I love that early morning feeding where the baby falls back to sleep on your pillow and you fall back to sleep smelling her sweet baby breath! I'd say this is my favorite part of being a mom, but there are so many other sweet stages I'm enjoying with my "big" girls that I can't say "this one" is my favorite! I love life with THREE!!
My mother-in-law sent her this adorable bathing suit and we had fun taking pictures of her in it at the lake!


Lucy the little life guard!


Liv joined us at the lake... I think she and Aubrey were enamored by Kenzie's "trick" of jumping off the dock. They didn't get the courage up for this until the end!


Aubrey and Liv thinking, "Man, she's so cool jumping off the dock! I wish I could do that, but I'm just not sure these floaties will be able to hold up my big diaper butt!"

Love this picture... can't wait till they are teenagers and we pull this one out!


Sophie and Lucy on Father's Day


The baby dedication at church on Father's Day




Jake built this awesome fort with the girls when I was out one night. He even let them use all the DVD's as a gate to "keep the bears out!" What a fun daddy he is!


We let the "big girls" have a "slumber party" the other night... here they were trying to convince us that they really would go to sleep! Ha! I love Aubrey's face in this picture!


Aubrey's first french braids!


I love when they are both feeling affectionate at the same time... hugs have been known to turn into fights if one person isn't feeling particularly affectionate!


I love this pose... she is getting so big already!


Random pictures I caught on camera the other day... so much love for this little one in our house!










Lucy is doing real smiles now!

And this last picture cracks me up! Kenzie set up a "nursery" where she took care of all the babies. She pulled out her little rocking chair and said she was the "watcher" and she took good care of all of her children.

First Days At Home

So what happens when Daddy needs a break and Mommy is nursing?? Dirt baths, of course!
Poor man sat down for 5 mins in all the time he had off and this is what happened!
















My first day on my own and my best friend and Mom came and helped me! Lucy got her first real bath from Memom... she gave my others their first baths too!


Notice the "helper" peeking over :)


Uncle Andy finally got to meet her on Friday last week! She was one week old!


Poppop and Mommom trekked over to meet her last Friday too! We had an outstanding visit with them! They brought us dinner, presents for the girls, they took the girls out on a wagon ride while I nursed, Mommom played make believe with them for hours, and we enjoyed playing cards with them when we finally got the girls down!






We tried to do a photo shoot with the girls and Sophie on Sunday afternoon... but it was nap time and bad attitudes abounded!



This is the only one that is half way decent!












We tried to get pictures again today... but Aubrey just refuses to cooperate for this!





Oh well... such is life with a two-year-old!

About Me

My photo
I am a sinner saved by grace and I married my best friend, Jake, in May 2005! God has blessed us with three adorable little girls that we get to raise together in a beautiful home in the most charming neighborhood in America! They are a joy to raise and continually make us aware of our need for a Savior! We are thankful the Lord did not leave us in our sin, but sent His Son Jesus to die in our place, bearing the just wrath of God that we deserved, and giving to us Christ's righteousness instead. Through His grace and forgiveness, we now are free to love Him who saved us and to extend the mercy we've been shown to each other. We pray our little ones will come to know Christ and that we will be faithful to proclaim the good news of Jesus to them not only with our words, but with our actions and our interactions with each other. So please enjoy reading about the Moon family, we're so glad you stopped by!
