Mother's Day

My first Mother's Day as a Mom to THREE boys.  It's hard to believe I now have 3 kiddos.  Life was busy before Lucas, so it's certainly much busier with Lucas here.  He's now almost 4 months old and growing fast.  He is such a easy going baby for the most part.  He really fits in with the family and the boys love him to death.  Sometimes Isaac loves him a little "too much". 

We went to church as a family and then we went out to eat with Grandma and Grandpa Kooiker to Shari's Kitchen.  The boys love eating there.  Lucas was experiencing an upset tummy while we were there and cried quite a bit.  I hate when he goes through those pain spells and there is not much you can do to help him.  I know it's because of the acid reflux and I know it's getting better, but it's still so hard to watch when he's in pain.  Grandma tried to calm him down while I ate but he just cried and cried.  When I finished eating I took him and held him and he immediately calmed down.  It's as if he just needed me to comfort him.

After eating we walked across the street to the Courthouse and took some pictures.  The older boys even cooperated for the most part.  All in all it was a nice afternoon. I love my family!!!
