A New Hiding Spot...

My boys love their pacifiers. Dawson has always needed to have at least 2 preferably 3. Grayson just started needing 2 and he is very specific on which paci. He likes the blue ones. This morning when I changed Grayson, he had 3 pacis and a little car at the foot of his footie pjs. New hiding spot maybe?

I also have to laugh at Noah. He really likes to watch all his DVDs in Spanish. He thinks it's hilarious and tries to talk in Spanish, too. Barney and Bob the Builder are especially funny in Spanish. Who knows! Maybe he'll pick up some real Spanish!

Here is a pic of my intense Grayson....


And my sweet, funny Noah...

Swingy-Dingy with Grandaddy

It's the letter W! No...it's the letter M!

Yesterday morning when the twins were taking a shower they were playing with all their foam letters. They LOVE the foam letters! Dawson was lining them all up in a row and saying their names and the sounds they make. He got to the letter W and said W (which is actually "double" according to Dawson). Then Grayson stepped in and said M and flipped the letter around. Dawson flipped it again and said W....Grayson flipped it again and said M! They continued to do this until they were getting frustrated with each other and I had to intervene. It was too cute! My little mirror image twins!

Today is picture day for Noah. We've been practicing our "pretty" smile. He usually likes to give a really teethy, big eyed smile that is so Noah. He also likes to give a very serious Batman face. We'll see what we get!

I am now 14 weeks into the pregnancy and officially in my second trimester! Yea! I've been feeling the baby kick A LOT for about a week now and it is wonderful!! What a miracle! We can't wait until we find out if the baby is a girl or a boy. Noah says it might be a girl or a boy. I sure hope so!

Blessings!

Quotes by Noah

Ok, so I haven't been the best blogger so far but I'm going to really try to be better. I'm going to start by sharing some of the precious things Noah (5) has said. Jenn, Lexie, Katie...help me remember!

Noah calls his daddy his best friend. He never says "Daddy"...it's always best friend. So when you hear him talk about his best friend, he is talking about his daddy.

We are expecting #4 and Noah is convinced it is a boy because in the sono picture the baby didn't have on a bow. And all girls wear bows....even in the womb. Makes sense.

Noah talks a lot about his future wife (even though he is only 5). He assures me that I can come visit him when he is married. He asked me the other day if God was making him a wife to marry. This was after I told him he couldn't marry his cousin Katie or his babysitter Meredith.

I told Noah one day that I loved him every second of the day. He told me he loves me every third. Need to work on understanding the clock and the concept of time.

Also, according to Grayson (2), cows say "Boo!" Must be scary cows!

I'll add more later and some recent pictures!

The Chapman Family Tragedy

My heart is broken for this family. Please keep the Chapman family in your constant thoughts and prayers as they make their way through this unbelievably difficult time. May God rest His hands upon them and give them peace.

Maria Sue Chapman, adopted and youngest daughter to Mary Beth and Steven Curtis Chapman, was killed Wednesday night in a tragic accident in the family driveway on Wednesday evening. She was LifeFlighted to Vanderbilt Children's Hospital but for only reasons God can explain she went home to Him... not to Franklin as we all so desperately wanted.

Your prayers are needed for all in the Chapman family. This is a family who has so generously loved and given to so many. Just hours before this close knit family was celebrating the engagement of the oldest daughter Emily Chapman, and were just hours away from a graduation party marking Caleb Chapman's completion of high school. Now, they are preparing to bury a child who blew out 5 candles on a birthday cake less than 10 days ago. These words are unthinkable to type. - Jim Houser (Manager)

The Beach Family

I'm so excited about my new blog!!!! Thanks Jenn for making it so pretty! You know I'm going to be bugging you until I figure out how all this works!!

So I thought I'd introduce myself and my family. I am the wife of the most amazing man. He is my dream guy and the one I've prayed for since I was 16. He is so good to me. We've been married for 71/2 wonderful years. This is a pic of us parasailing last year on vacation in the Turks and Caicos islands.



We have 3 beautiful boys. This picture was before the twins 1st haircuts.



Noah who is 41/2 and a little fireball. He is such a joy and always keeps us hopping! He loves everyone, and his daddy is his best friend.




Our identical twin boys are almost 2. They were so little when they were born!!

Grayson is a little ham. His little wheels are always turning. He likes things "just so" and is not happy if it doesn't go his way.


Dawson is our happy guy. He is smiling and laughing most of the time although he is proving me wrong right now!

The hat wasn't cooperating with Grayson! Ha! Love it!


They are all such a joy! Thank you, Lord, for these precious blessings!! Life is good!
