Soooo much has happened since I've posted last. Allison is growing up so fast and soooo smart. Often times I think she is too smart for her own good.
She is the greatest helper to me.Loves to help me cook, clean, feed the babies... She reminds me of myself soooo much. I wanted to be just like my parents growing up. Helping my Dad with anything he'd let me and following my Mom everywhere.A lot of the stuff I do with my kids now. She reminds me DAILY to smile and Thank God for our life. She smiles at me and my whole day gets better. She is amazing and I couldn't have asked God for a better little girl. Every day she gets more and more beautiful, her heart is so compassionate and I am sooooooo thankful that she is MY LITTLE GIRL!!!
The Babies, well they are growing up WAY TOO FAST!!! They are at five months now and each one of them are the sweetest babies EVER!! They are SOOOO HAPPY and on April 16 Dawson let out a huge belly laugh and we caught it on camera and the very next day Brandon did the same!! I am so thankful for technology because as soon as they started laughing Eric and I whipped out the IPhone or IPad and caught it.. Forever captured for them to see and hear their first laughs!!
Lexie LOVES TO talk, I swear she is going to be VERY SMART!! She will talk to you as long as you will listen and if the time in the day didn't go so fast I would listen forever!! The boys are doing the same things cooing. ALL FOUR of my babies said Mama first...not that I didn't work on it allot during the day ;). Lexie when looking at Eric calls him "ah D" and Brandon has been known to slip a "Dad" in everyonce in a while. He has said Hi and Bye.. now if he knew what he was saying would be a whole different ball game. Lexie says I love you but it's all cooing words. BUT if you say I-love-you. She mimics your pattern and really pounces the you.
Life with all four of my children is AMAZING, I am a BLESSED WOMAN. Life is stressful at times because I am alone allot during the day but I can do it. Somedays I am counting down the hours till Eric gets home and others the day flew buy and everything was perfect.
I think God chooses certain people to have multiples because he knows we can handle it. That somehow in the madness and craziness of the day we NEVER ask him "why me" I ALWAYS say THANK YOU FOR CHOOSING ME!!!
Allison,Brandon, Alexis, and Dawson,
Life gets better everyday with you, you have taught me soooo much about life. A few things I've learned this week from you.
Alli you taught me to not worry about the little things and worry about what really matters. (you broke something and were so sad,I was more worried about you that I did care about what you broke)
Brandon and Dawson: you two taught me that sometimes in life a moment can become a lifetime memory. Something we will never forget. (your laughing was amazing, sweet and music to my ears)
Alexis you taught me that sometimes a simple hug, smile or even catching someone's eyes can speak so much to someone's soul. ( I was cooking dinner yesterday and I took you in the kitchen with me. I was talking to you like you understood everything I was telling you :) and I looked down at you and we both looked at each other and at the same time smiled. I put down the spoon, rushed over to you and said " OH LEXIE I LOVE YOU SOOOOOO MUCH" and hugged you, and you cooed it back to me.)
Everyday we have moments like this with our Kids and we often let them slip through our memory. Not keeping them safe for stories when they get older. I am blessed with a VERY GOOD memory so I don't have to worry about not remembering some things but with four little ones these stories can get mixed up. So I started books for the kids so they can look back at and see how their lives were and how they impacted ours just being who they are, perfect in every way!!!
Thanks for following our lives,
The Talbot Family of 6
