PARTY PARTY PARTY

Our lives are crazy sometimes. I have weddings and sessions on the weekends. Jared’s parents travel. My mom works weekends sporadically. We couldn’t fit in a party until the middle of May – but it actually worked out better – it was a BEAUTIFUL day!

This cake – OH MY WORD. BEAUTIFUL and SO DELICIOUS!

It just so happened that my brother and his family were in town for the party! It was AWESOME having everyone together!

Fitzy and that little guy on his left (our right) are only about a week apart in age! I JUST LOVE THIS PICTURE!

Thank you so much for loving our sweet boy! Thank you for spending the afternoon with us! We love you all!

And an extra special thank you to Liz for taking the party pictures when I couldn’t!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY FITZGERALD!

Samm came to visit my parents at the end of March – with a fat 3 month old Jack!

Seriously – ADORABLE!

HAPPY HAPPY BABY!

Sweet boys!

FITZGERALD TURNS FOUR

Filed under: baby barden,bardenisms,just because,my family — admin at 11:12 am on Friday, June 26, 2015

Fitzy turned 4 in April. FOUR.

This face. I can’t believe that I get to be his momma.

He challenges me every single day to be better. He prays for me when I’m angry. When I’m sad. When I’m just having a bad moment. He tells me I’m the best – especially when I’m not. He loves legos. He loves ninjas. He loves karate. He prays for Enoch and reminds Jesus that Enoch is his little brother. He paints pictures for daddy to hang at work. He paints pictures for Enoch and asks me to write on them. Mom – write – don’t be scared because grandpa loves you. He loves to eat bread and butter. He loves to drink chocolate milk. He loves to make up songs. He loves to make people laugh. He loves Doctor Who and Star Wars. He loves watching Chopped. He wants to be a chef or a lego builder when he grows up.

He’s so silly.

He loves tattoos. He was a pirate for about a week – hence the dreadlocks.

FOUR. He will be starting pre-school in the fall. He’s so excited!

On his birthday – he picked the restaurant and the guest list.

Olive Garden. Aunt Lori & Uncle Bob & Matt. Uncle Bruce & Aunt Marilyn.

Gramma & Grandpa and G & Pa.

Happy 4th Birthday sweet boy. You are so loved. You bring so much light to this world! We love you!

ENOCH – 18 MONTHS

His curls exploded – almost overnight!

His personality too – well – that was already there!

Where’s your nose?

Where’s your mouth? And your eyes?

This guy – I don’t teach him these little things like I did with Fitzy. Colors – puzzles – body parts – I just don’t. And with Fitzy I was all about it.

Oh – the life of a second born.

But he surely isn’t lacking in happiness. And love.

JACK JACK

When Jack was nearly 3 months old – we surprised my sister with a visit. On a ridiculously snowy day.

Fitzy took those shots!

And those!

He ADORES that baby!

It breaks my heart to be far away from that sweet boy.

ENOCH – 17 MONTHS

Filed under: baby barden,bardenisms,just because,my family — admin at 11:54 am on Tuesday, June 23, 2015

This guy. He’s really 19 months old – but I’m two months behind on blogging. Again!

I just can’t put into words how much I love being his momma!

And this guy. Sweet Fitzy. Stay little for me just a little longer.

 

BROTHERS

These were taken right when spring decided to show it’s face!

THAT FACE!

Sweet Fitzy took this one of me!

Crazy guys! I am blessed to spend my days as their momma!!
