family pics

summer

summer was great, we moved to az, lived with my parents for the summer until we moved into our place. we have a great big yard and we are loving it here. i'll post pics of the house when we are settled in and all boxes are unpacked.
i haven't blogged in so long, to be honest, it isn't my favorite thing to do in my spare time, but i enjoy looking at other's blogs, so i need to work on mine.
here's a little update on the kiddos.
paris is huge and always happy, couldn't ask for a better baby. i knew it was finally my turn to have that easy baby. we all love her and her siblings make her smile and take good care of her. stella still gets into everything but is the most entertaining and clever little girl. she loves letters and numbers like her big bro and she is loud and not shy at all, especially around the boys... kazu knows too much and is always right, he will correct anyone regardless of age, and sure enough, he is always right. it can get really funny. he loves byu like his daddy and enjoys writing and playing with his cars.
the kids became good little swimmers this summer thanks, to the hot weather, swim lessons, and having a pool in the backyard. enjoy the pics.

paris-7 months

disneyland

our first trip! seriously, first family trip ever, although, we are missing paris. she stayed home with tim's mom and my parents went to disneyland, thank you so much!
unfortunately we got the worst weather you could ask for so we got one day and a half to play. we love love disneyland and we are so happy to live so much closer now. i have so many more pictures but my computer is not cooperating with the uploading, so this is it for now.

paris ema hewlett

paris was born on feb 22, she was 7lbs 4oz. she has been such a joy to have at home. i cannot believe that she is here and that pregnancy finally came to an end. kazu and stella have been amazing and they love her so much. the delivery was great, about 6 hrs start to finish and a few minutes of pushing. thank you laura for taking these pictures of our baby girl. it has taken me a while to post pictures of the little one, i still need to download the ones from the hospital, i just keep forgetting, having 3 kids 3 and under can really do that!
