aMAYzing!!!

When I stop to reflect, it really was an amazing month, and we have much to be thankful for. 

A lot of growing and developing took place for all three!

Finally managed to get all three of them in their (clean) shirts and snap a photo! just in the nick of time before Tad outgrew his!

I feel like this counts as a preschool project. We hosted baby birds on our front door, checked them daily and were so sad (and confused) when they left the nest.

Happy Birthday to our #1 Eliza!

Happy happy boy!

Tulip Time! 

Handler time out! finally a perfect rosette bundt :)

Finished up Embrace for the year!

After nap play time :)

Happy Mother's Day!

Gabe went from a diaper wearing boy to a pretty much potty trained man. 

Day one brought the essentials: favorite beverage, bare buns, and a fun activity to pass the time :)

It's a joy to celebrate with others isnt it?!

Happy Memorial Day weekend! What a great time with friends and family and remembering the sacrifice that so many have made!

And now it's June! 

How time flies when you're livin' life!

A+ April

It's mid May and boy does April seems like a long time ago in a galaxy far away! 

Which it sorta was since we spent half of it in Florida, Michigan's Lower-er Peninsula currently known as the maskless paradise. 

So! Without further political commentary or ado, here are the photos from our wonderful month!

A special visit from Great Grandma, the first time we've seen her in almost a year. (That's too long.)

Playdate with R3!

Happy Birthday grams! Sometimes it pays to be the only one left in town, more cake for me!

A quick trip to the Gardens for the butterflies!

We're all about life skills around here. Clean your brother!

We get by with a little help from our friends :)

Baby Squish

Happy Easter! He is Risen!!!!

Ahhh it's good to be with family

Possibly the best Spring Break of my life; my kids had to be dragged home from the doting neighbors nearly every night!  Big Gabe helping Little Gabe shoot some hoops 🏀😍

Oh hello there bright eyes! Is is any wonder why we're all so smitten?!

No free lunch, had to move my mom's plants to get this one 😆

Fun with our African American friends! 😊 They came a long way for this playdate!

Tad turned 2 months and momma needs a spell checker ;)

And then it was off to Florida! Hello circus act! 

Exhausting doesnt begin to explain it 😂

Not a bad view for reading or a manicure!

He's not Fred! He's Grandpa! 

Hanging out on the balcony

Lunch on the boat!

Christmas Card preview!

Fish on my babes!

Got one! Tricked it with their bait. Now to see if it's a big enough number to keep.

First convertible rides!

Everyone! Just be cool!

Handler time out! I made a divine key lime pie and Peter caught a shark. 

The line for autographs starts in the back of the room....

Day trip to the aquarium!

We got back in town just in time for prime bomfire weather! (Not a typo if you speak Gabe)

Mother's Day photo shoot!? bc...I mean...really! 💖💙💚

Everybody just doing what they do best: Sleep, cake/smile, baby hold 😃😃😃

I feel like I should just go ahead and upload half of May, but I wont! You have to wait! It's worth it! :)
