Here we go again

After being MIA for over a year I realized that I needed to start blogging again.  I made a blog book a few years ago and the boys LOVE being able to read about themselves.  It is by far one of their favorite books.  I don't want to look back and wish I had recorded more of our lives . 

Since I last wrote we were blessed to have welcomed another sweet little spirit into our family.  Lincoln Henry is now almost one year old and has brought so much joy into our home.  I love having a baby in the house again and I love seeing my big boys love their brother so much!

I will include updates on all of the boys because I think that doing them all at once might be a little overwhelming.  Below is a picture of my four favorite boys. 

Day trip and Fireworks!

So excited!

Christmas is...

3 Boys 1 Room

Yes, it's true. Even though we have 5 bedrooms in our house all 3 of our boys share a room. I'm sure as they get older they will want more privacy, but for now I like to think they enjoy all being crammed into one room.
When we first moved the boys into the same room we had two twin beds and one full bed. It felt like it was literally a "bed" room. You could pretty much jump from bed to bed without having to touch the floor. (The boys LOVED this, me... not so much) For Christmas this year they got bunk beds. I love them because they really open the room up and gave the boys TONS more space to play. The boys love them because they have headboards to pile their treasures on.

The boys have recently started making their own beds, and I have to smile every time I walk in their room and see what they have done for the day.

CARSEN

PARKER

GRIFFEN

I am finally getting around to decorating their room and re-finishing their current dressers. It is far from being done, but hopefully will be by summer's end.

I LOVE this next piece that is in the boys room! My in-laws saved it from the garbage truck for me. It was initially two separate pieces and I used it as my desk/workstation in my craft room. I love it as a little bookcase area for my boys! (and I just realized I REALLY need to dust it off)

He makes me smile

Griffen decided to get himself dressed the other morning. He found the clothes that he liked (they belong to Parker), and put them on over his pajamas. I can't get enough of him at this age!

Diaper Free!

(I love that in this picture you can see the path of destruction he left behind. :) )

Ahhhh, it feels so good to type this! After over SIX years straight of having a child in diapers we are now diaper free at the Wight house!! (Well, aside from a pull up at bedtime). Charles and I, along with my wallet, are extremely happy! Griffen was by far our easiest to potty train, and I'm pretty sure it was because he wanted to be like his brothers. Once he decided it was time he was trained within a couple of days. And while we are still putting him in pull ups at night ( I HATE cleaning wet bedding) he has stayed dry through the night for the past month.

Below you will find a few pictures of our little clown. Every time he sees that I have the camera out he starts pulling his face and saying "cheese". I think this is also a result of wanting to be like his brothers.
