Carly Elizabeth is 3 years old!

In the midst of all the chaos of the holidays and having a new baby at our house another one of our little babies turned 3 on Christmas Day! It's hard to believe that Carly is already 3 years old.

She loves to play with Ella. She loves Play-Doh. She loves stories and singing karaoke ('the wheels on the bus go round and round'). She is even picking up some new tunes while listening to her siblings play Rock Band. She holds her own in our crazy house and knows what it takes to be heard.

She has recently taken to using whatever shirt she has on for a napkin. Stain sticks are our friends! She loves to have 'ponies' in her hair (see attached pic---can you say Coolio??). She loves to sit in her big girl desk and color (we hope on paper--that doesn't always happen either).






We have not broken the news to her yet that her 'Birthday Lights' will be coming down soon! :(






Happy Birthday, Carly Elizabeth! We love you!

Graysen --1 week old today!



Curious little sister wants to check out her new baby brother!




Right after Graysen William was born! He has great lungs!









Here is Graysen being weighed! (6 lbs 6 oz.) He was right in the middle (weight-wise) compared to his other siblings.


Proud daddy!









Do you like my hat? Our great nurse Jessica picked out this Christmas hat for Graysen!










Sleepy baby!

Graysen has arrived

Graysen William Sankey was born on December 23rd at 4:03pm. He weighed 6 lbs 6oz and was 18 1/4 inches long.

He is adorable (I may be just a little bit biased)! At this point, I even think he is still adorable when he is up all night! He was always very active in my tummy in the middle of the night and has held true to that schedule now that he is here.

I have lots of details to share, but not much free time these days! I need to upload some pics and get those on here as well. I will hopefully get them up this next week.

We hope that everyone had a blessed Christmas!

Off to feed the baby!
