To be so lucky...

I must say, God has blessed me with beautiful children. I was taking pictures of the kids the other day and got this one of Nat. I just love they way she looks in this one!

Nat's Harley ride

Ever since the day Natalia was born her papa has talk about the day he would ride with her on his Harley. While this wasn't the "big" ride he would like to take her on one day, this was a ride around the neighborhood. Natalia was born to be on a bike. She wasn't scared at all and just loved every minute of it. I hope you enjoy this little video of Nat and her papa.

Happy 1st Official Birthday Alexander

So like always I have to take pictures of the children on the their "monthaversaries" so here is Alexander on his official 12 month aka Birthday!

PFO Company Picnic

Leave it to John to think it would be a great idea to take all three children to his company picnic at one in the afternoon. Keep in mind the children are typically feed lunch and in bed by 12:30 at the latest. Need less to say, we had a nice lunch with three cranky children. Nat played in the jump house and got a face painting on her arm: she refuses to let them paint on her face. Maddie wanted nothing to do with anything happening at the picnic. But they did all sleep very well for the car ride down to Cottage Grove.

They can never just give us a break...

The three Duncan children are nearly impossible to photograph as one unit. We have been trying for a year now to get a good picture of the three children together. We have ONE time successfully had one OK picture taken of the three of them and one really cute picture of their feet. This is yet another failed attempt at a picture of the Duncan children. My have worked out had my assistant been a little more helpful, JOHN!

Alexander's First Birthday Party!

We decided to have Alexander's party the weekend before his birthday so Madison could be a part of it. so we had his party this last Saturday and while not everyone who we wished could have came, we had a lot of really great people who showed up to take part in celebrating this past year of Alexander's life.
I have spent the last several months making a video of his first year and as soon as I can get you tube to work for me, I will post it for everyone to view.
Its hard for me to think my little baby boy is one already. I did good though and I didn't cry at the party. Its just hard when you know you're never going to get to do a 1st birthday party again. I wish I would have done a few things differently for his party, but when you live in a house with boys, you're plan change a little. All in all, Alexander's party went really well and there were a lot of really good friends and family who came.
Thank you to everyone who has made this last year so much fun. And thank you for all the people who have helped me with Alexander and his challenges, and mine for that matter. His one year check up is on the first of September so I will keep you posted on how he is. But I am guessing he is just perfect, but yes, I am a little bias. What can I say? I am madly in love with that little boy.

Big girl

I just had to share these pictures with everyone because I can't believe how much she is growing right now. She looks like such a little girl now and not so much like a toddler.

Camping in Fort Stevens

Our good fiend Adam is blessed to have his birthday during the best time of the year to go camping. Usually the firs part of August is gorgeous weather, this year it was a little rainy at the coast but we didn't let that stop us from having a great time!

There were lots of us there, 5 campsites, lots of children, good drinks, friends, and food!

This was also the first camping trip Natalia could remember and the first one for Alexander! They had the best time and we are already planning the trip for next year. Us Duncan's are planning another weekend to go camping already too!


The kids were just chillin when we first got there and were setting up.
