Olivia not enjoying being dressed up.  Brooke and I were taking pictures for our business blog and she was not enjoying it at all.  I think it's pretty cute though!  

1 month old

Little Lucy is already 1 month old.  Time goes by so fast.  She is such a sweet little girl.  I can't get enough of her chubby cheeks. 

 

Lucy Addison Edwards

Lucy Addison was born February 19 2009 at 12:53pm.  She weighed 7 lbs and 1 oz and was 19 inches long.  At first I thought she looked like Olivia but as the days go by she has her own look, her coloring is light.  Brett says it's wishful thinking but I think there's a tint of red in her hair.  

Ethan and Lucy.  He's such a good big brother, very soft and gentle.  

Brett and Lucy

Lucy and her first bow!  =)

Grandpa Dave 

My mom, Lucy and Olivia.  I thought Olivia would have a hard time but so far she just loves her baby and is a big help.  

Grandpa Steve and Lucy

Jackson and Lucy..what a cute big brother!  

Lucy and I after she was cleaned up.  She's just so sweet and little.  

Boat racing

We went over to Grandma Jody's house tonight and had boat races.  The kids put their boats together and decorated them and then raced them.  They loved it!  This first one is of Jack racing his Uncle Todd.  

He won and was SO excited!  

Ethan and his cousin Ace racing.  I am a little embarassed to say that I raced Ethan..tried my best and still lost and almost fainted..it was pretty sad!  My neice Liberty came over and told me not to worry about it because I am pregnant and should have had help!  It was pretty funny.  

Cute little Ethan!

BOXING MATCH BETWEEN ETHAN AND JACK

Grandma telling them to keep it clean and above the belt.

For awhile it looked like an even match....

Then maybe like Jack would come out the champ...

The end results are clear in this next picture...KO!  

Frosty, Grandpa and the boys

We had the perfect snowman making afternoon. The snow was soft and it was actually nice outside..for about 2 hours. Then a cold front came through with 50 miles per hour winds and temps below freezing. Luckily we got out when we did, Frosty blew over about an hour after building him. Good ole Iowa winters!

Christmas Eve

Our Christmas Eve started off with some sledding.  It was so much fun because there was a sheet of ice over the snow.  Ethan and Brett went forever and had to make themselves crash so they wouldn't wreck into a gate.  Ethan loved it!

Olivia and Jack don't like the cold at all, so they spent their time in the pick up car.  

Every year we redo the Nativity Story.  Jack is a shepard and the only way his Grandma could convince him to wear his outfit was to tell him that he killed the animal he was wearing.  Liberty, my niece, was playing Mary and when she tried to put baby Jesus in the cradle Olivia freaked out and kept trying to take the baby out.  It was pretty funny.  Ethan is a king and did a fabulous job.
