Kate, Kate, Kate

So I wish I'd waited to do the earlier Stark Babies Post til I had this pic of Katie bug, she's in the same pose as the two I posted of Will and Jonny and she is such a Stark baby! :)
Katie is now 9 weeks old and this girl loves her baths! She lays in there on her back just enjoying the peace and quiet away from her brothers (I think it reminds her of being in my belly) and is never quite ready to get out. She has been so smiley too! Will watches her for me and every few minutes he'll say, "Mommy, that's 4 smiley faces she's made at me!" He gets very excited!

Jonny wasted no time at the Dunn's Easter Egg Hunt, he was double fisting eggs in the rain.

Stark Babies

So I've been super nostalgic lately . . . having Katie, getting ready to move--packing things up, looking through old pictures, etc. . . . and I found myself looking at pics of my babes when they were all babies and finding similarities-they all have Derrik's nose. :)  I am amazed at how fast they have grown up, how much love they have to give, and how blessed I am to be their mommy. Here are our babies when they were still babies (well, Katie is going to be in the baby phase for a while longer . . . thank goodness. :) )

Jonny's 2nd Birthday Party

Birthday Boy! We had Jonny's party at Pump It Up. It was a great party . . . Jonny had a ball, thank you everyone for making it so much fun for our little man! 
Chanel and I sparring . . . I hate to admit it, but I got taken out about 3 times before I snuck up on her for a win. ;)
Will and Mark going to town . . . they loved hitting each other with these things, good thing they had helmets on. 
The party crew!
He wasn't too thrilled about sitting in his throne while we sang to him. :)

Derrik's Birthday

We celebrated Derrik's 28th the day after he got back from Vietnam. He spent most of his birthday jet lagged recovering from a 20 hour flight. But when he was feeling chipper again we went to Chili's with our best friends, the Nielsens. Then we randomly decided to go entertain ourselves at the nearby Kohls and then we went home for cake. Happy Birthday honey!

Happy Birthday D! We all love you so much! Thank you for all you do for us.
