Dawson Dean Pattee:)

















It is hard to believe that our little family has grown by one more AGAIN:) Dawson Dean arrived via C-section on September 9, 2011 at 11:39 am. weighing in at 7 lbs. 1 oz., 20.5 inches long. He is doing swesome, yesterday at one day shy of 3 weeks old he weighed in at 8 lbs. 6 oz.!!!! That would be why I am sitting at my pump right now writing on my blog, he is sleeping, but I had to wake up and get this milk out of me, 14 oz. just came out because the little man just slept from 8:30-2:20 never waking up!! WHoo HOO:)

ANyways, this little guy is a very happy relaxed little man, while is brother next in line is not. Dalton will kiss Dawson if you ask him to, but other then that he wants nothing to do with him! He will pull and swat before he gives Dawson the time of day:) Dakota is a GREAT BIG brother, he helps me out all the time with running up stairs to grab diapers or even sitting down and feeding him, he loves him so much! Sadi is also a good big sister but she still tends to get into his face and growl a lot:)

I am adapting to 4 children really well, the kids are handling me really well too:)! Now that our house is empty my children have calmed down and our schedules are back in working order. Life goes right? Stay tuned for more updates to come!

Enjoy the picture overload!

It's school time!








It's hard to believe that I have two babies in school right now! Dakota started Kindergarten last week, such a big boy!! It is so hard to believe that 5 years ago he was a 5 month old getting a full mouth of teeth and now he goes to school 5 days a week from 8-4pm! He is really liking it, he did told to listen and pay attention a few times last week but after we made his good boy jar (he gets to add a quarter every night he is good) he has been doing much better!! He brought home his first homework last night too! We have his class picnic the week after Baby D is born so it will be fun to see the rest of the kids in his class.

Sadi also started Preschool this week at Jacob's Ladder. She is in the 3 year old program, Tue. Wed. and Thur. morning. SHE LOVES IT!! I was so worried I was going to get a phone call telling me that she just wasn't going to work out, but she is doing awesome. In fact, they went as far as calling her precious!! Which I felt was stretching it a bit:) But everyday this week when I pick her up she whips out all her papers in the van to show me what she has done:)


And Dalton is just getting ready for his new little brother! I think he may take this a little hard so I am getting a little anxious as to how is going to act:( He really is a mommy's boy!
