Oh, what a blessing...

Chase had a special blessing day on Sunday. We had so much family come and support and our new little guy! He was an absolute angel the whole day!!!




Chase has been an amazing baby. He is so mellow and calm. I count my blessing every day that he is a part of our family!

Here is Chase only a few days old having his first sponge bath at home. After his bath you can see what his cute little baby hair does when it is wet...

I can't believe Chase is 4 weeks old. He is getting back his chubbiness. I love to snuggle him!
So much has been happening in our lives lately. Every time I turn on the computer to post about it, I end up going through Chase's baby pictures. I will try to update the rest of our lives soon. Until then I better go hug my baby!

School Carnival and a 2 Week Old!

Morgan had her school carnival this week. Abby and I went over to help and have some fun with Morgan. They enjoyed cotton candy, popcorn, popsicles, and drinks.
There were lots of fun games. The girls' favorites were the fishing pond and the ring toss.

I can't believe Morgan is finishing up first grade. My family is growing up too fast.

Speaking of growing up fast, Chase-man turned two weeks old this week. He is such a joy in our lives. None of us can get enough of him!!!

I thought this picture looked like his Grandpa Williams.
Here are my four cute kiddos all ready for church. Chase had his first diaper blow-out shortly after this picture. We were almost late for church. I don't know what it is about Sunday outfits that brings out the magic. Hopefully he will behave better on his blessing day!

Wyatt sure loves having a brother. Chase loves Wyatt too. They are too cute together!

We have a CHUBBY CHASE!

We are so excited to have a chubby little Chase on our hands. He weighed 9 lbs 8 oz, and was twenty inches long. I love how absolutely chubby he is everywhere!





We love you Chase! You have won our hearts over already!!!

The final COUNTDOWN...

Only a few more days to go until we officially welcome baby Chase. Today I asked Wyatt if he was excited to be able to hold his little brother soon. He looked at me strange, grabbed onto my belly and said, "I can't mommy, you are too heavy." I had to laugh because it made me realize he doesn't exactly know what's going on. The rest of us can hardly wait.

Here's a picture of my pregnant belly Morgan took today at the request of a few sister-in-laws. I am definitely looking forward to having a little more space and a cute baby in my arms. Chase will absolutely be the best Mother's Day present I could ask for, even if he is a day late. I can't wait to post new baby pictures soon!

A Sunday Drive...

When church starts at 1:00, sometimes it's nice to load the kids up in the car and let them take a ride to wherever their imaginations lead. There are limitless possibilities.
Abby's off to a beautiful Island getaway.

Wyatt decided to hit the racetrack for a few laps in his car. He even had the sound effect down.
But don't forget, before they can go on their Sunday morning getaway, they need to fix up the car just right.

It's a lot of work, but well worth it!!!
I love watching my kids' imaginations at work. How fun to be young and carefree. We are still anxiously awaiting baby Chase. Two more weeks -- yahoo!

Soccer Rockers!!!

We are two weeks into our soccer season and everyone is having a great time. I am so proud of my girls and the good little soccer players they are!

I challenged Morgan to try and steal the ball at least five times from the other team. She worked so hard. She just kicked the ball away from a boy on the other team in this picture...
Dribbling the ball down for a goal in this picture...


Another steal in this picture. I love that the boy totally tried to kick the ball, but Morgan kicked it away from him before he could connect.
Here she is taking control of the ball and moving in for the kill. Wow, I love to watch her play. I get excited just posting pictures. She is such a coachable player. Anytime you tell her to try something, she works so hard to get better. Way to go Morgan!!!

Wyatt was just chillin' at the soccer fields. He is his sisters' biggest fans -- well besides his mom who is rather noisy on the sidelines!

Abby has been a delight to watch in soccer as well. She is such a girly-girl at home, but when she puts on her shin-guards, she turns into an animal. Abby is going in for a goal in this picture.

She's just chasing that ball down the field. That girl is fast!!!

Abby is battling for control of the ball in this picture. She goes head-to-head with anyone. Notice her tongue is sticking out as she concentrates...

Soccer is so much fun. I don't know what's going on in this picture. Her tongue is out and she is having a great time.
It's such a blast to watch my kids have fun and excel in the activities they participate in. I am still waiting for the day when one of my kids asks me to calm down and be quiet on the sidelines!

Happy Happy Easter!

We had an absolutely wonderful Easter. It's nice that my girls are getting old enough to understand the true meaning of this special holiday. We had a great day at church and at home enjoying the day as a family. Here are my cute kiddos before church in their new Easter duds...

Following along with the Williams family tradition, my kids were excited to wake up to trails of jelly beans and messages on their floor Easter morning. Abby couldn't figure out why the Easter Bunny wrote "Hoppy Easter" instead of "Happy Easter" on their floor.

My girls were amazed that the Easter Bunny knew the name of our new baby already. They said we have to name the baby Chase for sure because the Easter Bunny said so -- What are mom and dad -- chopped liver?


I don't know what the Easter Bunny was thinking, but he left light sabers in Tracy's and Wyatt's baskets. They've had lots of fun with them. If you notice, there isn't a picture the whole day of Wyatt without his light saber. He hasn't put it down for 3 days straight.

Morgan was excited to get a chocolate bunny and the game Animal Crossing for her Nintendo DS. She was spoiled!
Abby couldn't have been happier with her new High School Musical 3 DVD. She was so excited that it was all hers.
What an awesome day we had. We hope you all had a wonderful Easter too!
