Luke Dylan Farage

It's not really official until it hits the blog right?! Well okay that isn't true because it is official and he is here and he will be 2 weeks old tomorrow and I have been a bit preoccupied and haven't had time to get to the blog. So here it is.......Luke's official introduction!!!!
 
Luke Dylan Farage was born May 16 2014 weighing 8lbs 7oz (actually 8lbs 6.8oz), 19 inches long and perfect in every way!
 

Chet named him Luke, we had been at odds with the name, I wanted Logan. It really was like a hallmark moment, Daddy carried him over, I was crying and said "you pick his name" and he says "it's Luke Dylan", I said okay!! He does look more like a Luke than a Logan :) We really liked the way Dylan sounded with Luke and it's an added bonus that we have an awesome nephew named Dylan that is pretty proud to share his name!!!

 
My good friend Debbie came to visit when Luke was a day old and took these first 3 pics of him, she did a great job! I don't like many pics of myself but I love the one she took of me and my beautiful baby boy!
 I am happy to have 6 kids at home and really don't want any more but this is still very bittersweet. I like being pregnant (at least most of it), I like giving birth (sounds crazy, I know) and I love the itty bitty baby stage, love getting to know this new little person and watching their personalities grow! I'm going to cherish every minute and I am going to miss it!
 
 
 
But more than anything I LOVE this sweet baby boy....he is absolute perfection, there isn't a thing that I would change about him! He is our final little masterpiece and the perfect completion to our family! No doubt, like the rest of the kids, he will always and forever be loved and treasured!
5 days new at his newborn photo session

This little diva.....

wanted to put on a fashion show so.....
 
 
she dressed her self up and.....

 
struck a pose until.....

 
a photo bomber made an appearance but.....

 
it didn't damper her show because....

 
the show must always go on!!!!

 
She even posed with 2 of her biggest fans after the show!!!!!!

Quick sidenote for those of you wondering....No Kinley does not use a pacifier and she never has but there are some around here and she will put them in her mouth if she finds them....she is silly like that!!!

Easter Day!

Typically the Easter bunny just brings each kid a little basket of goodies but this year mom and dad added to it with fish tanks....one for the girls' room and one for the boys' room. We have been promising them for a long time now that we would get them some so we finally did. We went ahead and let them have it the night before!
 
Tanks and a basket full of fish goodies!
 
They were super excited!
 
So excited that daddy went ahead and set the tanks up that night (even though he had said they were going to wait until tomorrow)!



Then the next morning they got their little basket of goodies.....


candy for the 4 bigger kids and....

 
and adorable little animals for the 2 littles (yes even something for the baby)!


They were happy kids (Rylie must not have let me take her pic)
 
Then we got dressed up and headed to Nannys!

Kinley can make picture taking difficult especially when she keeps messing with her nose!


 
My pretty girl waving Hi and .....

 
eating her sucker!
 

 
They love the little table and chairs that used to be mama's!
 

 
 
We always have an easter egg hunt in Nanny's backyard....
 
 
Xan man!
 
Kinley could have cared less about putting her eggs in her basket, she just wanted to open them and find the candy!
 
Katelin!
 
Haylie....each kid has their own color of eggs, i'm pretty sure the big kids only participate because they know they have one egg with some money in it!
 
Dylan and Owen....double trouble!


Evan!
 
Rylie!
 
On the hunt!

 
Grammy with her big girls!

 
My beautiful niece and nephews....love them!
 
It's not a family picture without a nose picker (at least it wasn't Chet this time)!


 
Swinging with the big kids!


Checking out the goods!
 
Kinley was sooo tired she finally just sat back and relaxed with sissy.....

 
and it wasn't long and she was sound asleep!



My beautiful girls!
 
And my devilishly handsome boys!
