...and we're back

i have been out of commission for quite some time. i have so much blogging to catch up on i don't know where to start. 

i guess i'll start with why i have been out of commission. besides going non-stop with three lively boys, my computer decided at just the right time to never ever work again. oh my, the drama. everything would have been a-okay if i would have diligently backed up any pictures from the time will was born until it died. matthew made the comment that night that at least i had backed up everything except the last three weeks. unfortunately that was when will was just a little over two weeks old!  fortunately my brother-in-law, christopher, was able to recover my hard drive for me. whew. so the pictures are safe and sound. and i am up and running on one awesome new computer that i am loving. lesson learned. i will be purchasing an online back up program for my entire computer from now on.

in other news, this is close to an accurate picture of an every day moment around here.

grey bear is constantly asking to hold his littlest brother. he is also frequently caught picking him up to bring him to me when he is crying. he has been such a fantastic helper and was recently rewarded with a date with mommy for being such a great big brother! as soon as i informed him we would be going on a date he excitedly said, "oh, i'll have to wear my woody costume!" and he had it laying out ready to go for 3 days. i love that little boy. 

tuck man is consistently gentle with will. he shares his blankets {BIG DEAL!} and tries to share his paci. will doesn't like pacis and it really doesn't sit well with tuck. he also consistently eats with a front loader and a horse. they make meal times much more fun. 

i love that little boy too.

i have so much on my mind to document i need to get back to blogging! be back soon...
