jack anthony,  as bossy as you can get being the biggest brother,  your love for samuel is unreal.  you are samuel’s translator most of the time and half the time you are wrong.   samuel fulton, we could listen to you talk all day even when no one can understand you.  you guys are so much fun to watch together.    you two are competitive and you know how to make us laugh.  you look out for one another and always want to make sure no one is left out.  your favorite things to play together right now are restaurant {“texans cafe” to be exact}, building forts for your stuffed animals,  building legos, blocks and lincoln logs.   your favorite cartoons are peppa pig, paw patrol and most recently mutt and stuff.    your taste buds are as opposite as your looks but you share a mad love for candy.   you also share a mad love for your sister.   some days can be quite the challenge with you guys but i would do each and every rough day all over again because … well,  just look at you guys….

we pray every night that you only grow closer to jesus and stay close with one another.  we love you boys.

sweet samuel you have brought us so much joy these last three years!  you and jack are the best of friends.   it has been so much fun to watch your relationships with your siblings grow.   i see something starting between you and anna kate already.  it is adorable.  i can probably say you love everything.  you really have the biggest heart.  that may be why you are also very sensitive.     you give the best kisses.  you are very funny.   the way you talk  almost always needs a translation by me or jack.   you love building things.  you love your stuffed animals.  you love your costumes.   you love hulk.   being t h r e e  is going to be so much fun for you buddy!  happy birthday samuel fulton!

anna kate,  our little cranky franky… as we sometimes need to say.  you are the sweetest thing!   at three months old, we are finally to a stage where you are pretty smiley.  you love to talk and we love to listen!   you are still our roomy and i’m not really planning a date for you to move out yet.   i’m a little attached ok?  the boys are still head over heals for you and you are for them too!   our favorite thing is to watch you watch them.  you get so excited. you take lots of cat naps during the day still and sometimes surprise us with a long one.  it is never predictable.  ever.  you did very well on you first road trip out of state.  however, since we got back you can barely make it to the store.  i’m just going to pray that passes.   i  can’t believe how much you changed this month.   your personality is growing all the time.  it looks like it’s going to be a fun one 🙂

when we got back to bc from our trip we spent a day to recoup.  however, that evening the boys ran fever.  but that wasn’t the worst.   jack, normally when croup strikes you it happens in the 3 am to 4 am time span.   i knew you didn’t sound good but by 4:30 am you were sleeping rather peacefully.   that quickly changed by 9:30am and before 10:30 am we were out the door…

strider at rest was what they diagnosed you with.  they also said the oh so familiar… “you are too old for this one buddy!”  fortunately, we received great care and headed on back home that very same day.  exhausted but we made it.  and by monday….

IMG_2138

we were still exhausted.   you guys still have some yucky congestion going on but i think the rest we are getting lately is helping us!

the day after the boys birthday party,  bailey was my partner in crime and helped me make the trip up to oklahoma to surprise holly for emily’s first birthday.  unfortunately,  we were surprised ourselves when holly said she couldn’t be around us because she had just been running a fever that afternoon 🙁 .   luckily, all we got were bad allergies and complete exhaustion.  🙂  but the kids had a blast and we had so much fun celebrating this little sweet heart…
