Crazy Lucky

People ask me all the time what it's like having three kids now.  My quick answer is always, "crazy," but there is more too it than that and I think a conversation I had with Leila describes it better.  As we were leaving to have dinner with some friends, I said to Matt, "Man, we are really rollin' deep these days..."  Leila asked what I meant, so I said something like, "oh we just have a lot of kids now so it's kind of crazy when we go anywhere."  And she said, "Oh, so it means we're lucky?"  Yes.  Yes, thank you for reminding me that behind all the craziness, we are just truly lucky people to be the parents of these three wonderful kids.   Of course two minutes later I think Zoe started screaming and Nathan hit Leila and Leila started crying....

So, to catch up on our crazy, lucky life...I've got pictures.

Vegas for kids!  It's Chucky Cheese!

Cheeeeese!

Maybe one of my favorite pictures ever.

St. Paddy's Day was wild around here!

The Bruiser.

Finally a nice day and what do they do?  Find the only patch of snow left and play in it.

And then we left the cold...

First plane ride and she did great!

And these two did great too...

Bubba's first cubs game!

They were more interested in this dumped out ice than the game...

She skipped the game, but still was decked out in her Cubs gear!

Meeting Clark

 So many great memories made in AZ!  Team Vacation 10!  

Randomly we ended up having a FW reunion in AZ!  

It was awesome seeing all our kids running around together.

Zoo day and we were able to feed giraffes!

It was a chilly morning at the zoo and Matt had to borrow my coat.  I couldn't stop laughing.

Bunk beds were a big hit!

Good morning Batman!
