Sophie Videos

Boy I am on the ball right now!  This makes up for any time that may pass as my life gets a little more hectic here in the next couple of weeks!  ;)  Here are some videos of the first few hours of Sophia's life! Please excuse the poor girl that is evidently on many, many mind altering medications.

Here is evidence to how sweet and happy she is.  She really is very alert and happy almost all the time!  We love her SO much!!

Sophia Marie Wing

We are so happy to welcome our beautiful Sophia Marie!

Sophie was born April 9, 2012 at 9:31am.  She weighed 7lbs 7oz and was 19.5 inches long!  She is an absolutely lovely baby with the most squeezable cheeks ever!!  And check out all the hair!!  Emma still has her beat though!  :)  Sophie is absolutely adored by her brother and sister and her mom and dad are slightly captivated as well.  She is a very sweet baby and loves to be snuggled.  Even now at 11 days old she is a pretty mild mannered baby. She doesn't fuss except to eat and be changed.  Such a blessing for mommy!!

We all love having sweet Sophie in our family!  We are so excited to see what her role will be...how she will shape our family.  Ryan and I are ready for that mellow touch!  (wishful thinking?)

We love you Sophie Sue!  Welcome to our family!!

Easter 2012

Easter this year was very special!  We were able to spend the weekend with my awesome family AND we were anxiously awaiting the arrival of our little Sophie!!  The kids had such a great time playing together and it was so nice to be able to spend my last weekend pregnant with my mom and sister. 

 Our last family picture as a family of 4!!

 Nana and Pappy with the sweet kiddos!

 Gavin totally loved looking for Easter eggs!  Every egg was a new and exciting treasure!  Love that age!!

 Doesn't she look thrilled?  ;)  She really was excited, trying to find the most eggs.

Easter 2012 was a success!  Now on to our next exciting challenge!  Baby Soapie, we want to meet you!!!

Train Exhibition

With Lexi at a friends house and Mommy sleeping after work one Saturday, Gavin and Ryan took off to the Indiana State Fair grounds for the annual Train Exhibition!!  Gavin walked in and kept running around yelling, "Choo-choo! Choo-choo"!!  He was so overwhelmed, he didn't know where to go next!

He got to ride a train and see a ton of train exhibits!

Sheer Joy!  That's what that face is!  I love you my little choo-choo boy!!

Christmas 2011

Christmas this year was AMAZING!!!  Both Ryan and I were off all of Christmas which is the first in the 5 years we have been married!  I could get use to that but with my job I know I shouldn't. :) 

There are TONS of pictures and I won't bore you with all the details but just know, we all had a great time with family and are super blessed to have them all in our lives!
