And then there were five

I love having photos taken of our family. 

Last week I shared photos of us before Sutton was born. 

I hadn't planned on having any done of the 5 of us because it can get a bit pricey

and we just had them taken right before she was born. 

The more I thought about it...

however, the more I realized if we didn't have some taken I'd regret it! 

Since I would feel guilty about spending the money I had my mom's friend take some. 

She's taken many photos for us, including some engagement pictures and wedding ones. 

She definitely got some good shots of our family! 

These are some of my favorites. 

I especially love the ones on our bed. 

I wish we'd been able to capture some of all of the three kids together

Or even more of just the toddlers in general,

But goodness, how in the world do people actually get photos of their toddlers?!?!

They don't sit still and just want to do what they want to do! 

Therefore, we didn't get many of them, which is a bit disappointing, but what can you do? 

At least Sutton was up for a photo shoot. 

I know I need to pull out my camera (not just my phone for instagram) 

and try to capture moments myself. 

That's a goal of mine! 

And that makes 5!

then this post comes as nothing new to you. 

But if not, SURPRISE! We're expecting baby #3!

We found out two days before moving day and were completely surprised! 

We actually burst out laughing because we were in such shock. 

We knew it'd happen, but thought it'd be after Maeva turned one.

This is why I haven't been blogging pretty much at all lately. 

I've wanted to, but just haven't felt up to it. 

I've had horrible morning sickness and have been super exhausted, pretty much all day long. 

I hope that's coming to an end because I'd really like to function like a normal person. 

It's so different being pregnant this time and having two little ones to take care of! 

I'm going to have three little ones 3 and 1/2 and under.

I know it will be crazy, but I know God will give me strength!

I'm kind of feeling like a failure as a mom at the moment just because of how this has been going. 

There's a lot of tv watching and not much else happening. 

I make sure Braden and Maeva are fed, changed, and taken care of. 

It's not how I want it to be, but currently how it is. 

Grace. Grace. Grace. 

This won't last forever! I look forward to having more energy to do more with them and unpack... 

Did I mention we've been in our house over a month and it's still a disaster? 

There's still so much unpacking to do and I wish I had the energy! 

Eventually, that too, will get done! 

For now, I'm taking it real easy and counting down the days until I'm done with the first trimester.
I'll be in my second trimester on August 1st and this baby is due February 5th -- the day before my birthday! =) 

Thank you to everyone for your kind words. We so appreciate them!
