Miles had his 4 month check up about a week ago. He weighs 15 pounds and is 25 inches long. He is such a happy baby as long as you are holding him.....mainly mom though. He still doesn't like bottles, but he does like his paci. A relief for me!
Jailynn will be 3 on Tuesday! I can't believe it. She love going to school now. She picks out her clothes the night before because she is so excited to go be with her friends.
Grant is just growing and loving his siblings. He loves to give kisses and make everyone happy. He gets so upset if he gets in trouble for something. He is such a cutie!
My kids are growing so fast and I love them so much. Their smiles make the bad days not seem all that bad!

It has been a long time since I posted! I have been busy with 3 little angels! I love them so much! Jailynn is almost 3 and we are trying to decide what to do for her birthday. She has told us several times that she wants a party, we just arent sure what to do. Grant is growing each day and trying to extend his vocabulary. Miles is just trying to sit up and loves to stand. It is so fun to watch each of them discover new things!

Well, here is Miles Patrick Olds. He was born April 30, 2010. I will be able to post some more pictures in a couple weeks. It has been a whirlwind of a year so far. Having 3 kids under 3 is not the easiest thing in the world, but we are managing. Grant and Jailynn see to be ok with having another baby in the house. Grant is a little rough, but that is just him. He is very heavy handed. Jailynn wants to hold him, but she won't let you know when she is done. You have to watch her while she is holding him. Gerry found out that he did not make MSgt., so now we have to figure out what to do next. Will he retire next year or test and see if he makes it and stay in 2 more years? Where will we move if he does retire? Will he work? Will I work? What will we do? I guess the answers will come soon enough. As for now, we will stay right where we are and be as happy as we can be. We will soon make a trip to Fort Smith, AR for a family reunion. Right now, that is what I am looking forward to. I love the feeling of having family and loved ones around. When you are having a hard day it is nice to have someone to talk to in person. We just need to do some planning and packing. Thanks to Mark and Karen for watching Rusty! Don't know what we would have done with him otherwise! Looking forward to a wonderful summer full of adventure and the unknown!

This is what my kids do while I try to take a shower.
Not so fun to clean though!!

Where have we been?? Just here, there and everywhere. We recently found out that we will having another boy. He is due June 1st. Jailynn is growing and talking more and more everyday. Grant is walking when he feels like it. He follows me and if I am doing something other than paying attention to him, he will fuss! We still do not know when or where we will move to this summer. Hopefully we will find something out soon. I am not good at playing the waiting game. Gerry is doing well trying to be the best father he can and still work an insane amount of hours. That should be getting better soon though. He finally has some help in the office. I am doing well also. Moving right along with the pregnancy. Just hoping to make it a little longer than I did with Grant. Trying for at least 37 weeks again. The doc seems to think that I may not since Jailynn was right at 37 weeks and Grant was 35. She said that usually a woman will continuely start labor earlier with each pregnancy. We will see though. We like the name Miles, but can't think of a middle name. So, we still don't know if that is what we will stick with. I will post pictures soon!!
