Aiden 7 weeks old

Here are a few pics of my lil guy. He is 7 weeks old, about to be 2 months!!! Where does the time go? Joe has left for deployment and will be back next month. It has been really hard on all of us. Thank goodness Nana is coming next weekend to give all of us some relief!

Sydney's first day of ballet

Sydney loved ballet class! However, while all the other girls were learning first position..my daughter was the one holding a scarf over her face and spinning. Syd marches to the beat of her own drum...just like her mama ;p

Kids first day of school

Joe Mack started 2nd grade and Sydney started pre-k. Where does the time go???? Sometimes I wish they could stay this age forever...

Aiden loves his big sister!!!!

Aiden Michael Van Straten

Well my lil angel was born on 7/28/09. He was 6lb 12oz and just perfect!!!!! He looks so much like me(for right now)and is the sweetest baby. Joe has been off for the past two weeks to help me. It was so nice to spend that time with him and the kids. Joe Mack and Sydney LOVE their lil brother and want to do anything they can to help mama ;p
Here are a few pics, I'll try to blog more when I can. Being a mama of three sure keeps me busy!!!!!!

Aiden is almost here......

Well, here I am at 39 weeks. My scheduled induction is on Tuesday but I am hoping to go into labor naturally before then!!!! It has been a long 9 months and I am ready to be un-pregnant!!!!!
