 Last weekend, I had two of my three babies (well, they're grown, but they're still my babies) together for a day...and three of my four grandkids.  Joshua, Erica, and Thalia weren't there :(  Before my guy and I took off to come home, it was a time for photos. 

Coming home, my guy told me how important he thought it was to take these group shots...I, of course, totally agree!  It can be a hassell to get everyone together and get the camera set...but oh, it's so worth the outcome!  I love, love this picture...
We were trying to get Benjamin to come join this photo...but being nap-less, he wasn't being totally in the mood for photos...
  
I took this one of Gabe, Emerson, and my guy while we were at church...I'm not sure Emerson wanted to be held...he and Benjamin were having a grand time running around...

This was Saturday night.  Lori, was Lindsey's doula.  Lori was also there for Benjamin's birth.  I hadn't had any experience with doulas before Benjamin, and I am certainly an advocate now.  Lori is absolutely wonderful...so calming...so reassuring...so knowledgeable... so.... I know Lindsey wouldn't have made it through the delivery without using some kind of drugs if it hadn't been for Lori.  
 The boys, in the previous video running around outside while church was going on, also stopped awhile on this bridge...
 This made their Mimi happy because it was a great place for pictures!
 
All these pictures are ones I've been playing with in Photoshop..
 See those red cheeks?  When you play "Stop!  Go!" for an hour with your cousin, that's what happens!
 The new little family of four! 

 I got all the guys together!  (Missing Joshua :(  :(   :(  ) 


I wanted to be with my guys...

This was taken when Benjamin was at our house...but I got a new 'effect' for Photoshop, so I just edited it... 
 
Last, but not least... I thought I'd show the similarity between William and his Papa!
