They are all growing up so fast - some days it seems so incredible how big they have gotten! Maia is starting to sit, Avery is mastering talking and Lane is getting to be a little man.
These kiddos make me smile.

makes me smile
My boys love being with their sister, are very protective of her and try their hardest to play with her.

biker dude
For Lane's birthday we promised him a bike. A bike with 2 wheels. That he could ride outside. And every time his response was to say that he wanted a bike helmet. It got to the point where we started to wonder if we could get away with just getting him the helmet.
Finally, after WAY too many months of snow, the mountains of snow melted, the water ran away and the sidewalk was clear enough to contemplate letting a 4 year old out with a bike. Off to the store went dad and his big boy. An hour later they came home with this:
A very happy boy.
A happy boy that tells me consistently that he loves his bike. And even kisses the silly thing. And the helmet? Well, lets just say that bike riding is just one of many uses it sees.

| Notice the white thing hanging down from the handle bars? The kid couldn't wait for us to take the warranty/safety info off the bike before he rode it... |

all pieced!
Progress continues to be made on the great birthday quilt of 2012. I have finished piecing the top and have got the back pieced as well. I'm hoping to get it sandwiched together this weekend and then it shouldn't be long after that and we can be using it!
It's a bit of a crazy quilt but I was sent a crazy collection of fabrics! For all the busyness of this quilt, it is fun to sit down and try to find all the blocks of a particular fabric. I can see the kids and I playing an "I Spy" game with this quilt at some point.
As I was snapping a picture of the quilt top yesterday, Avery found a block that featured a soccer print on it and was quite excited...I think this quilt will be an all around hit!
A big thank you to all of you who sent fabric - you have helped create a beautiful memory.
