Just one more

I could not resist posting just one of my favorites of outside with Ruby. We got really lucky one day and it was warm enough to take her outside. I am so glad we did!!!

Worth every penny!!

I finally got the pictures from my photographer and I am so excited to share them with you all. These were taken about a week after Ruby's birth.

Jenny Miller is the talent behind these treasured memories!! All I can say is Thank You a ton!!!

Here are a few of my favorites, I have posted a few of each kid also and would love to hear your comments!!!

I love this pictures, so sweet!

Big Daddy and Mama were here and I was so happy to get a picture of them with all my kids!!

Love this shot!

Ruby

New baby Ruby

There were so many good pictures I had a hard time picking a few to post, she was only 5 days old! She did so good she is definitely going to be a diva!

Coleman

The Big brother of 4 little girls (heaven help him) 10 yrs old

Evelyn

My helpful 6 year old

Leland

Claire

My little 2 year old!!!

All dressed up

We all head off to church

My 5 kids!!!
I love to dress the girls the same, but due to Evelyn's amazing sense of style it is getting harder and harder. I bought these dresses in hopes she would comply and lucky for me she actually liked it.YEA!

Mama Leaves

I really thought 3 weeks was a long time, but honestly time just flew by. My mom is an amazing woman, I am so impressed with her strength and how hard the girl can work. Even my friends were like "man she is on top of it!" And I am so grateful she was , because I needed her help so much. This c-section really threw me for a loop and because of my wonderful Mom and husband(sorry Brian I think my Mom out worked you) I am now ready to be a happy Mom of 5!!! WOW!

While my Mom was here she fell in my kitchen and broke her wrist in 2 places. The amazing thing is she didn't even cry, she was calm and just plainly stated "I think I broke my wrist and need x-rays" I told her if she was trying to get out of work all she had to do is say so, but of course her handicap didn't stop her from her duties of service.

They say you love those you serve, well I am now convinced she loves me the most, sorry Stacie!

Mother you were awesome and I can't say thank you enough!

On the way to the airport Leland said to me "Now that Mama is going home you are going to have to do everything" So I guess that means that the kids noticed that i wasn't good for much more than nursing a new baby, now I am Mom again and it feels really good.

The kids loved that Mama had a cast and couldn't wait to sign it, that's for making things exciting!

WE LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

One Week old and other random pictures.

Our precious Ruby at 1 week old.

We are Family!

Just wanted to post some of my recent favorites. She has only 6 days old but, I can't get enough of her. She is definitely going to be spoiled, spoiled rotten!!

Mama, Leland and Ruby. Check out those cheeks on Ruby, so cute!
I am so happy my dad is here for a week. The kids are thrilled, especially Coleman. He and my dad are going to carve wood this week do other handy projects.

Coleman may have wanted a brother, but he sure is crazy about his new baby sister. He really is nice to have around, he is so good with her and I can already tell he is going to be one of the best helpers I have.

Evelyn got to help me give Ruby her first bath and was so excited to hold her in her towel. While she was holding her Ruby went poop (opps) in the towel and Evelyn said "What was that sound?" and when I told her, her eyes got so big and she happily gave her to me. Evelyn then went into her room to change her shirt "just in case" she said.

My 2 little babies! Claire tells me 100 times a day that she is the baby, and I have to rock her and sing to her. I think she is a little jealous. At least she isn't taking it out on the Ruby.

Claire and Ruby

Today Claire was hanging out with me and Ruby and I couldn't resist taking a cute video of this good big sister. Claire is really obsessed with little Ruby and want to hold her and has to know what she is doing at all times. They are on the road to a lasting friendship.

Our little Angel

Yesterday we were so excited about the birth of our new baby girl. The last few months Tillia has been complaining that this baby was going to be huge. The doctor and I were not so convinced but Tillia was right! 9lbs 10oz, she is huge.

This is Claire and her new baby sister. She is really obsessed, she tells everyone that it is her baby. She says, "My, baby, my baby, me hold!" She has even tried to stand up with her and walk around. We have our hands full with her.

Here are some of our favorite pictures from today. Mama and Ruby, all the kids with Ruby and Evelyn with Ruby. They are so proud to be big brother and big sisters!

She's Arrvied!

Hello everyone this is Tillia's little sister updating her blog for her and posting a picture of there newest member of the family.
She arrived at 12:25 pm and weighed in at a whopping 9 lbs 10 ozs. She measured around 21 1/2 inches long. She is so adorable as you can tell and looks a little like her two older sisters Leland and Claire. After some thought Tillia and Brian decided that she looked like a Ruby so they named her Ruby Leigh Krallis. Hopefully I can post some more pictures soon and just wanted to let everyone know that baby and mommy are doing great!

Long lost video

I got this little digital recorder for my birthday this past Feb and enjoyed taking some videos, the problem came when I went to load them onto my computer, I honestly would search and search and not be able to find where the computer had saved them. So I basically gave up and just forgot about the whole thing. Well yesterday I was looking at my picture file and low and behold I see this little icon that said flip video library and I was like are you serious, they have been right in front of my face this whole time. Yes, there they were. I felt totally stupid, but still so glad that I now know how to use this thing. So I am happy to post a video of Claire and I dancing last feb. Better late then never. ENJOY.

A Little Freaked Out!

Only 2 more days till I have my c-section and I am starting to get really nervous. It is my 5th and I just hope all goes well. I am so excited to hold this sweet little baby. I just can't believe I am having another baby and I am in shock at how fast this pregnancy has gone by. My belly has grown to an enormous size and I am a little fearful as to what damage has been done to my poor stomach, I know she will be worth it, but still I am sure at first it will not be pretty. Please keep me and the baby in your prayers on Tuesday!!!
