I know I’ve mentioned by college roomie, Kristin, before. She has two boys the exact same age as Maxwell and Spencer. She lives in Atlanta but her in-laws are in Birmingham so I get to see her every now and then. Here’s the last time they were here – can’t believe how little the boys look! – and here’s another visit when our babies were about one – and here’s one more time when the babies first got to meet!

She stopped by on Friday of last week for a while and we let all the boys play while she got to meet Samantha…

The boys were a hoot together. Maxwell and Lucas are 10 days apart and Spencer and Hayes are 17 days apart….

cuties all of them!

Then on Saturday afternoon, we had quick visit from my aunt, Jeanette. We’re so glad she was able to stop on her way to see Laura so she could meet Miss Samantha!

We love visitors!

Around here lately…

We’ve had visitors…

Aunt Messy!

Nate and Johannes!

We’ve gone to birthday parties…

That’s Teenage Mutant Ninja Maxwell with his classmate, Princess Hannah.

We’ve taken mirror selfies…

As you can see in the background, baby girl’s room is still a work in progress!

We’ve gotten boo-boos at school…

ouch!

We’ve had a 70 degree afternoon…

Followed by a day of freezing rain and cancelled school! Can winter please be over now??

Overall, we’ve been doing great…

Hope you have been too! Have a wonderful weekend!

Oh Monday…it seems the sun is shining a little brighter, the birds are singing a little louder, and all is right in the world! Or maybe it’s just me and the high I’m still on from this sweet baby girl!  🙂

I have a bunch of photos to go through from the hospital but haven’t had time to do that yet so here’s a few from the weekend…

The boys (and I love that I can now say “the boys” and “the girls” when referring to our family! Samantha and I will happily be a girl team of 2!) went to a birthday party for John at the airplane museum on Saturday morning. Fun!

They especially loved the aviators that came in the party favor bags!

While they were gone, I ventured out to Target with Samantha. Her first of many Target trips for sure!

It was a beautiful, warm afternoon so we enjoyed a little fresh air…

until my awesome friend Lyndsay arrived from Nashville!! yay!

We had so much fun catching up and, because Robert’s the best, I even managed to sneak away for a quick dinner with her!  I love this picture Lynds took – check out Spencer in the background sans shirt after a messy dinner!  ha!

Lynds came armed with sweet gifts to get my little girl looking like a little girl! Bring on the pink!!

Have I mentioned yet that Samantha might be a genius? No? Well, check this out…

4 days old and holding up her own paci. Genius.

It was a great weekend with all of us just loving having baby sister at home!!

See you tomorrow!
