Compare and contrast

When Levi was first born we thought he looked completely different from the other two boys but we are kind of starting to think he might look similar to Isaiah. Here are the two boys in the same outfit both around three months old. What do you think???






And just for fun, here is a picture of Noah at 3 months!

Oh Boy, Oh Boy, Oh Boy!

On December 23rd, we welcomed our precious third boy to our family! Levi Christopher Heuer was 7 pounds, 20 1/4 inches long born at 12:32 p.m. It was a terribly L.O.N.G. and miserable labor A.L.L. night before he arrived the next afternoon but that all disappeared once he was in my arms!
Of course, with being our third, we were immediately analyzing how he looked and WHO he looked like. He actually has his very own look and doesn't really look like either one of the other boys. He has a TON more hair than the other two and probably favors my family more than Eric's.

Eric and I were both exhausted after not getting a single wink of sleep all night but we were (and still are!) so deliriously happy!
We could not wait to have our other boys meet their new brother! They absolutely loved him and even now a month later, it hasn't really worn off that there is a new baby in the family! They still smother him with kisses and want to love on him all the time!
Since he was born so close to Christmas, and because Levi and I both passed our tests with flying colors, we were released to go home early so we could spend Christmas morning with our family!
Levi is now a month old and we are still settling into a routine but things are going pretty well. It's amazing how little I get done during my days. My older two boys are really needy of my attention so I'm spending a ton of time with them when I'm not feeding, burping, sleep training and sleeping myself! I am also really trying to make sure I nap when the boys nap. So far I have been able to coordinate nap times so that I can rest for a bit while they nap! I am really trying to soak up this precious newborn but I am also looking forward to when I'm getting a little more sleep at night :)

"TWO" good to be true

First of all, YES I DO know the difference between "too" and "two" but bear with me as I was using a play on words! :) And it in fact is not too good to be true that I am posting twice in one week! I have yet to do a post on Isaiah's third birthday so I thought I would put a few pics on here from that!

He started his morning off with some elephant shaped blueberry pancakes! Requested by him :)

Then he went up in this balloon!


And got to play with these controls!
And got to love on these animals

Then he enjoyed tacos for dinner - again, his request :)

And he was very happy about enjoying this beautiful cake!
And licking the icing off his candle!
It was a wonderful day celebrating a wonderful three year old boy! Isaiah, you light up our lives and we feel so blessed that Jesus has given you to us and you have brought us so much joy! We love you to the moon and back infinity times! xoxo

A few things...

Thing #1 - We have a three year old! UNBELIEVABLE!!!!! We had a great animal themed party and someday soon when I am not so tired and worn out, I will do a post devoted to that wild good time! :)

Thing #2 - We also have a joyful and spirited almost 16 month old who is now a walking machine! It took him a while to get going but he is now all over the place!

Thing #3 - Here is a video of some new stuff we've been working on!



Thing #4 - We're having another baby! It came as quite the surprise because we were NOT planning for this at this time but we are very excited that God has blessed us with another little bundle! 2011 will be quite a busy year for us!

Where.Does.Time.Go???

I cannot believe it has been so long since I last updated.....
sorry :( The boys are fantastic. Work for Eric is going really well and I'm still loving my 24 hour a day, 365 days a year job of being a mommy to the sweetest most wonderful boys I know!

Noah is 15 months old and just in the past two weeks has really started to take off with his walking. He gets better and better everyday and is really starting to get brave. He repeats nearly everything we say and has lots of words in his vocabulary. He adores his big brother and I absolutely LOVE watching them interact! He is sleeping really well right now too (knock on wood!) One of our most favorite things he does right now is when Eric walks in the door, he screeches so loud and yells "DAAAAA-DAAAAA!" It is so cute and of course melts Eric's heart :)

Isaiah is amazing and I can't believe we are 10 short days away from him turning THREE??? It's crazy how time flies! He has the cutest personality and makes us laugh all the time. He says some of the most incredible things for a child his age. (We think so anyway! :) He just amazes us with his memory and quick dry wit! He has such a sweet little heart too. Just this afternoon he said, "Mommy, you're the best mommy I know!" Flat out melted my heart!

OK, OK, I know you just want to see pictures so I'll stop talking! Here are a few things we've been up to the past couple months!

Playing in the wagon with cousins!
Swimming in the lake in our undies!
Having a blast at the park with friends....
and cousins!
Playing in the creek with cousins
Loving on daddy for Father's Day!
Loving the splash parks around town!
Getting crazy hair from sunscreen and sweat!
Hanging out with Uncle E
Jumping in the lake with daddy!
Going to the zoo
Feeding Giraffes!

Riding on trains!
And swinging!!!!

We are loving this summer with the boys and trying to spend as much time outside as we can! They LOVE to be outside so we're going to lots of parks and playing a ton! I PROMISE I will try to do better at updating! I know I've said it before but I really mean it. I DO!

Isaiah....reading?

So apparently Isaiah has heard this book before but neither Eric nor I had any idea he was that familiar with this book! Amazing how quickly these little boogers pick up on things :)
