Tired, but not too tired for more pics:)

Not alot of words today:) I'm too tired for many words. But Kyle has taken some cute pics so before I get really behind, I better post them...

Lily just loves Henry's chair, guess she needs one of her own soon.

spring time fun....

I was right! Today was even more beautiful than yesterday:) The high was somewhere in the 80's and sunny. It was actually hot, well to my big pregnant self it was sooo hot. We spent the morning at a park right by my mom's house with my mom and brother. (nonnie and uncle b) The kids played and we had a picnic lunch. It as so fun. Henry had a blast and wore himself out. Which is always good for nap time!! They both still got a little sun even though they were doused with baby sunscreen. But not burns so I suppose that's good.

Henry and his daddy goofing off
Lily loves Henry's chair. She climbs all over it!

Today we had to break out the hats. Her little head just doesn't have much protection yet:)At first she didn't know about keeping it on her head but she learned quickly.






They were all smiles on the way to the park.






When I'm taking pictures of just Lily Henry will sometimes sit there and say "cheese" until I snap a pic of him:)








Precious!



They love to swing, Lily especially






Henry plays hard








We are thrilled about the spring finally being here. The sun and being outside is just what the many small Armour children need! (And their mama too!)

Praise the Lord for the sunshine!!

Today is lovely! And I think it's just going to get lovelier. Ahhhh, the warm weather. How wonderfully renewing it is, even when you lack sleep. It's amazing what it can do for you. Today we went to the park with some dear friends that I don't get to see often enough, it was so nice. Henry played his little heart out and Lily tried, got frustrated, and loved it once she got in the swing:)
The kids are sleeping, thanks to playing in the sun all morning. Things have been busy it seems. The kids were sick and then I kept them at home for about a week and a half just to make sure they were well enough to be around other kids. That was hard because they get sooo board at home all the time. Thanks goodness that is over. :) My body is hating me right now, and as I mentioned above I'm really not getting any restful sleep. This is how is always is the last part of my pregnancies so by the time the baby comes I am ready and don't even mind the not sleeping. I probably get more sleep by the time they are eight weeks than right now. I really can't wait to meet her! She is a busy bee at night. During the day she moves but at night she does aerobics:) I mean really she get soo busy and she is really strong and big. So much so sometimes she actually hurts me. It's amazing. I will be so surprised if I make it to July 1st. Watch, this will be the first baby to actually come on her due date or later.
We are going to Hilton Head the last week in May. I will be 35 weeks. So after that she can come whenever she feels the need. I wonder what she will look like....??? Hair, no hair. If she has hair she will probably have more than her big sister does right now. lol. Sweet Lily. She has a beautiful head.
Lily got a doll for her birthday from my parents. Today Henry named her Mimi. He comes up with the most random things! But he likes the doll and yesterday he brought me into the living room to show me that he had put her in time out. lol. He said that she said no to mama and that's why she was in time out. I was so glad to see that. It was cute, but it also means that he is internalizing what time out is and what gets him in trouble. He has spent some time there lately so it's good to know that he is understanding what gets him there. Lily had her in the car today and was hugging her and patting her back. Those kids are just the cutest!!
Kyle has his last class tonight, and then has a month off. I am sooo excited. I know he is even more excited. He needs a break, we need a break. And the beach won't be bad either:) Well that is about it for now. Nothing abnormal going on but the sunshine is just wonderful!!

The new Armour wheels

So we have been shopping for a van for quite some time. Knowing that having Callie meant three car seats, three of which would not fit in the back of our jeep. And we know that eventually there will, if we are so blessed, be at least a fourth. So a van is what we needed. I guess we could have gone the huge SUV route but who can really afford 15 miles per gallon?? Anyway, God sent us the perfect van for this family last week. We are so grateful and thankful for his provisions for us always. We know everything we have is from Him and we thank the Lord for providing, once again, as he always does.
The kids love it. Henry goes around talking about "the van" all day:) All the room is amazing!!! And it is leather, so much easier to clean up with all those kiddos. Plus, it does have a DVD system in it. Now let me say, no they won't be watching it on a weekly basis. But on the trip to South Carolina next month, or the two trips we take to Alabama each year, yeah it will be MUCH appreciated!!! We love the van, now I just gotta figure out how to use everything in it. :) It's a good problem to have. Now we are ready for Callie officially!! In 10 weeks (or sooner!!)

Happy Easter!

What a wonderful Easter Sunday!! We had the best day yesterday! It all began with a amazing Sunday service at church. How blessed we are to be able to have a church home to go and celebrate Jesus' Resurrection so wonderfully. It was a wonderful service! And then we all went over to my in-laws to have lunch and then a eater egg hunt. We weren't really sure if Henry would get into it this year or not. Last year he was so little he really had no idea. But we weren't sure about this year. Well turns out HE LOVED IT! It was so cute. He really got into finding the eggs. Some of the eggs had candy and some had money. He would shake them when he found them to see what was inside:) He had a blast and we all had a blast watching him. And Lily had her own wonderful time. It was a BEAUTIFUL day and she really enjoyed the baskets and eggs.

This is Lily and her uncle Matt (my youngest brother) Happy girl on Easter!
Me, Lily, and my mom (nonnie)

"Look Mom!!"




Lily HATED being on the grass. But it was so pretty I couldn't resist a few photos before we fixed her problem.











There, now she has a blanket, what a girl!!



Lily and her Easter basket.


It was sooo sunny yesterday. It made for some pretty awful shadows, but they were so cute all the same.








Look at that grin! She loved taking all the basket grass out of the basket and shredding it all over the yard.:)

Henry finding all his eggs.







At the end Henry had a seat and went through all his egg bootie:)


Money! (he put it all in his pocket)






she found some candy! (don't worry she didn't get to eat it)



Lily wanted in on Henry's fun


That tongue!!



Such a silly girl! She is scheming how to get Henry's candy too...


Looking oh so innocent....

I hope everyone had a blessed day. We sure did. Even though Henry ended up eating a bit too much candy and throwing up and dinner lol (memories) And my family had to leave early because my brother had to head back to Murray. (we missed ya'll at dinner!) I was a wonderful day!!! We thank God for all our many blessing!!
