The instagrams and the videos

Holy cruuuuud this is a lot of photos. As in, six months of photos. So, sit back and relax? (and if you follow me on instagram, you've seen all the photos but not all the videos, so scroll down to the recordings)

Still thinking about yesterday's date where...
It was so fun to Escape the Room (with eight strangers). Just like those computer games but even more exciting!

Coming back from Florida without Sean's accompaniment: Three boys, a pregnant mom, and two flights. My fingers were crossed.

Explored Stillwater one day. Still letting go of the apprehension of my kids being so close to so many ledges. And my legs hurt so much from carrying grey up half the killer stairs. Otherwise, it was fun!

Now everyone's a little bit sick. Goal 1: keep me from getting sick because... Baby soon! Goal 2: have everyone better before my mom comes so SHE doesn't get sick when baby comes and she's in charge. Luckily, it seems like everyone's on the mend.

Liam and dash were required to get headphones for school and so they're trying them out, listening to music. Suddenly they're teenagers. I'm trying not to think about how much I'm going to miss them as kindergarten starts tomorrow...

It's begun. They're in the hands of another. Grey is surprisingly okay with it. My eyes are perpetually wet.

|| 2 months old || or is she? When is her month-iversary when she was born on the 31st? Anyway, Wren eats great, sleeps great, poops great, and smiles great. The two nights previous, she's gone twelve (!!!) and nine (!) hours between eating which makes ME smile. What a baby!

Last week, Sean, wren, and I visited a potential employer. It was so strange to have just one baby- never happened. It was all... so... simple.

These guys know how to have fun
The boys were under the care of Mimi and Pompa, I think they had a bit of fun.

Kindergarten school photos! Hee hee!

This house has been on a Star Wars kick.


Splash Pad in Orlando


Teaching dance moves.


Doing their own dances. *Boom*


Back when they were learning the Star Wars songs. I think those tunes will be forever embedded in their souls by now.


Grey trying to make grass music like Daddy.


The usual antics.


They had this run where all three boys built all sorts of Duplo creations together and didn't fight (except sometimes they did a little). It was so fantastic.


Grey talkin fireworks


Dash's interpretive Star Wars dance


She was a'bumpin'

Grey discovered the ability to fake laugh but it usually turns into the real thing.


Melt my heart.


A fun game of hit-the-helicopter-drone-with-fake-lightsabers.


Pajama beautiful. Featuring Grey's fantastic whispering and burping abilities.


Wren had just let out her first laugh while watching Liam spin jump so I started videoing in case she did it again. Meanwhile Grey tries to sneak his first in front of the camera.


A long, sweet, though not terribly dramatic look at Wren listening to Sean.


She laughs! She doesn't do it much which makes this video that much more precious.


Wren Stares, Version 1: staring at the back of the phone.


Wren Stares, Version 2: staring at the phone screen, specifically, her selfie


Dash's talk 2015. All his own thoughts.


Grey's first log ride (with Pompa!). He didn't seem to enjoy it while in the middle of it but he claims otherwise. Such a silly ride.


Timber! Her second time rolling from tummy to back.
