Worth Blogging for!

I haven't blogged in over a year, but this week events is worth it.  Our dear friend lost her father this week.  In the midst of her loss, she was planning a birthday party for her sweet girls.  So at first she of course thought she would have to cancel, but she knew her dad would want that to be the last thing that she did.  So along with her "fleet" she put on not just a birthday party, but a magical time in space for all who attended.

It wasn't without princesses, ponies, fairy-god mothers, and fairy dust.

Here are a few of the many moments that I got to capture on this most magical day.

Happy Birthday Gracyn and Chandler!!!

Do people still blog?

What is the point?  We have Facebook, twitter, instagram, texting and much more to keep each other in the know of what is happening in our lives.  However there is something to say about a written thought that is longer than 140 characters.

So here I am, my last post was over a year and a half ago and a lot has changed since then.

Franklin Thomas has entered our family.  I am officially a mom of boys.  End of story.

He loves to blow kisses.  Follows a cute girl with his eyes from one end of a room to the other. (Trouble) He pretty much loves everyone he comes in contact with.  My baby boy is a precious soul.

Benny is three and a half.  He's becoming sweeter and sweeter by the day.  I worked for my old company today and when I dropped him off he didn't want me to go.  Then this evening we just hugged and snuggled in the kitchen and he just smiled said what a great day he had.  

B usually looks pretty melancholy but lately he's been a beam of sunshine.

He is my sweet B.

Jackson James is so full of magic.  He has been wanting his new disney infinity game to come out with the character Peter Pan.  So for days he had begged me to take him to a wishing well so he could wish for "them" to make peter pan for his disney infinity game.  So we were at the long beach town center and he saw the water fountain and he asked to make his wish.  He stood there for a few minutes held his little penny and closed his eyes and threw it in.

Man I love this kid.

Finally there's Drew.  He is becoming so much more of a person.   The other night we made him wash his feet…they smell sometimes.  Anyways, I was helping him and look and his growing feet and said to him, "Look at you, you've got hair on your toes."  He said, "Yeah, its how I know Im growing up."  He is starting to see the world as it is.  Knowing that somethings are make believe and some things aren't.  But learning the the world is bigger than it can be.  

I love him to pieces.

So there a little taste of how my kids have grown over the last years.  Maybe, just maybe I can keep this up…OR  see ya in another 18 months.

It's been a while.

Today I feel like blogging.  Maybe it's because it's a cloudy day or maybe because I'm hormonal but for some reason I just felt like typing.

Looking back over my blog it makes me aware of how fast this life goes and how I need to enjoy every moment.  The boys are growing so fast and I find myself not even realizing it.  Benny will be 2 in June, Jackson will be 6 in July and Drew just turned 8.  This December we will welcome one more member to the Hutton family.  And while I absolutely LOVE my boys, it would be fun to see what the drama of another girl in the house would do.  If she's anything like me, we are all in TROUBLE.  But if God has for me to be mom of all boys I am open to that too.  It's what I do best.
The idea of four sounded awesome, but now that reality has hit I have to say, I am freaked out.  I know that it's in God's plans or it wouldn't be, so I am waiting patiently to see how this final one molds me into the person I'm supposed to be.

Life is an adventure and I am along for the ride.

here are some recent photos of my three crazy ones.

15 MONTHS!

This big baby is growing so fast.  He is walking and getting into everything.  He climbs ladders to get into Drew's bunk bed.  He eats anything and everything put in front of him.  He loves to sing.  He LOVES to dance.  (Mostly booty shaking.)  I can't believe how little of the baby is left and how much of a toddler is has become.

Benny Boo Boo, What an amazing year it has been with you as our addition to our family.  You have gone more places and seen more things then most new borns.  You have been on the move since you arrived and you haven't stopped.  We are so thankful for you.  Your brothers, Dad and I are overwhelmed with love for you everyday.

Happy Birthday "big baby."  So excited for all the adventures we'll experience in this next year of life.

We love you.
