We did a sailing theme, which seemed fitting since we had just recently came back from a wonderful sailing adventure. Daddy made the fun sailboat cake in the picture. In april came my 30th birthday, which we decided to hold off on a party until after baby, because he was due to come any day. And he decided to come may 4th, 2 days late!!!!! My babies have never been late, so I knew he was gonna be different. He came fast and furious on May 4th, with labor starting at 1230am and he was born at 415am weighing a whopping 8.13 pounds!!! my biggest baby to date!!! A whole pound bigger.
8.13 pounds of snuggley goodness. he has got the cutest little baby cheeks you have ever seen. and they just keep on growing, hahaha. so he continued to be a different baby then my other 2 by being very gassy from the start, forcing me to give up dairy all together. I started slowly, leaving just a teaspoon of cream for my morning coffee, even that would upset his tummy! so out with the cream, but black coffee is just not the same, and hard to get down. Good thing my dad reminded me a few weeks later that the international delight creamer didn't have dairy. How genius, of course its doesn't have dairy, how else could it last in your fridge forever without going bad. So needless to say, this momma was back on coffee in no time :) and this baby was starting to sleep better at night. Every body wins. June came which ment party time. I was getting nervous, cause I was still "fat" and didnt think I could find a costume that fit. Yes I said costume, Micheal planned a wonderful Great Gatsby themed party, complete with everyone having to wear costumes. In my head I was going to be thiner and rocking something great!! haha not sure why I thought that, must have been really sleep deprived or something. everyone knows that for 40 weeks you are gaining weight, so obviously its gonna take some time to shrink back down. And this time around lets just say I gain A lot more. hahaha number isn't important. needless to say, my mom found a perfect dress for me a swanky thrift store in white rock for me, that did the trick. just added some fringe to the bottom and added some jewellery and voila! a costume was made.
Micheal and I were so impressed that every one dressed up. they all looked fabulous. I couldn't have asked for a better way to celebrate the start of my 30's.

no party is complete without and awesome candy bar :)
the venu was done up perfectly. Thanks to my sis Amanda for hosting :)
So once the party was over, it was time for summer to start. The weather started getting warmer which means many trips to the beach, friends pools, and camping in our trailer up at green lake. I was a little skeptical going with 3 little kids, but they are such good travellers, not sure what I was worried about. they all slept really good at night, and Mason slept all day too! must have been the altitude :) So I think that brings us up to date for now. I promise I will try and post more often, to prevent the long posts lol. I will leave you with some picture of some cuties :) have a great weekend. xoxo
If anyone knows Hudson, then you know that he is typically nervous of water and swimming was out of the question. He hates water in his eyes and face. but since the swimming season has started he has not been fearful at all. He has overcome his aversion to water and is always the last one out of the water. It's a miracle :)
back yard fun, these boys love their brother.
Mr. chubs
such a content little baby
