these three

these three.  my little minions, my shadows, my middle of the night wake up calls, my wrestling partners, my loves.  life with them these days are so busy i don't have time to stop and think about how tired i am.  the boys and i basically live out of our car during the week and now that baseball has started for brooks, we spend most of our free time at the ball fields.  and in between all of that fun we are checking on our house daily.  we're so close to being done that it seems like things are moving in slow motion now.  only a few short weeks left to go and then we will have a house to call home.  all good things! 

i was going through my camera which was collecting dust and cobwebs and found these pictures i took back in july.  trying to get all 3 to cooperate and smile at the same time is near impossible.  even worse is getting shelby to stand still.  that doesn't happen anymore.  but it sure makes for some funny pictures.  and once in a while, a really good one. 

nailed it.  not.

and again.  not.

shelbs thought bringing in a minion would make this photo shoot go better.  meet kevin!  the best part of this picture is carson's face in the background.  he looks at her like this all the time.  like she hung the moon.  melts my heart.

miss shelby cooper is a piece of work.  life with her is awesome.

this face makes me so happy.  i could kiss it all day long.

girlfriend got the eyelashes just like her brothers.  look out, daddy.  

peace out.  she's done.

ever hear of the term, "smile with your whole face?"  well, carson smiles with his whole body.  i've never met anyone who is so happy and positive about life.  he truly is one of a kind.  and he's ours.  lucky us.
