Happy birthday Wells 💚

Wells has been turning into a person right before our eyes and we love who he’s becoming.

Wells is obsessed with music. He will ask Alexa for songs approximately 10000 times a day, and the crazy thing is that he knows the words and will sing along. He loves playing his drums, playing piano, dancing around to music, and will constantly ask us the name of songs in the car. He has sat through entire dance recitals and performances, utterly mesmerized. His love for music mirrors his dad’s and it makes me so happy.

Wells loves Pokemon, TMNT, spidey, Miraculous, pretty much anything with good guys and bad guys and fighting it out. He loves imagination games but often requests that “no we are all friends” instead of fighting. But in the next breath he will tell us “this is a punchy” and threatens to get us. It’s a constant back and forth here!

Wells is so so smart and loves learning. He will request to do a workbook or our little preschool lessons every day. He picks up things so quick and knows most of his letters, all the sounds, can count so well, and loves tracing letters and doing mazes. He is so impatient to at preschool and asks often when he can do to real school which he has dubbed “spiderman school.” He will sit and look at books for hours and always stops me when I read to say “mom I love how…” and then will proceed to make an observation about the story. It kills me!

Wells wants to be just like Graham and follows his lead on many things, but Wells also has an independence and fearlessness that makes Graham follow his lead too. We love their dynamic so much.

This year Wells has done gymnastics and has loved it, and spends so much time in the yard playing! He loves to throw and catch, run, kick, and swing golf clubs or baseball bats.

Wells is our wild card. He is so curious, unafraid, stubborn, and marches to his own drum. It’s a lethal combo that makes him insanely fun. He has one volume – loud – and can be heard saying “I don’t care about it” and “I have a great idea” followed by him convincing you to do something he wants.

Wells is sweet, empathetic, brave, and fun. We love him so much.

HBD sweet boy 💚

Graham KILLED it at baseball this year! We are so proud of all he did and how much he learned and grew. He did great at hitting the ball, running the bases, and throwing!

We are already having the best summer with pool days with friends, time at the museum, and a trip to Saint George! The boys loved playing with Beth and Gavin and going to the beach.

Clarke is already 2 months old!

He is a good sleeper most of the time.
He gives us giant, open mouth smiles especially when he sees his brothers.
He’s finding his voice and loves to coo at us when we sing or chat.
He’s a true third child and is very chill, but when he needs something he will not be shy to let us know.
He is so strong and tries to hold his head up all the time to look around.
He’s obsessed with the ceiling fan and we call it his master because he will do whatever he can to be looking at it.
He has captured the hearts of everyone around him and we couldn’t be more obsessed.
