The Poole Party Is Expanded

Here are some "night before Andrew is here" pictures....

You can take a guess at what Savannah has smeared all over her face....

The sweet family of three...Melissa is 41 weeks pregnant here....every woman's favorite place to be. :o) I love this beautiful family!

The little muffin, fresh out of the oven!!!!! This is about fifteen minutes after he was born.

Lissie and Vanda (that's what the twins call her).

Hezzy with the two newest babies in the Brinker clan...Callie is a giant baby. There's a lot to love on that little munchkin!!!!


Andrew has been such a wonderful baby. He sounds like a little lamb when he cries, but that never happens when Aunt Jen is holding him. ;o) Mandy is next to have a Brinker boy...she is due in June. I'm hoping he comes on the twins' birthday!!!
The girls and I got to take a walk outside today for the first time in a thousand years. They were so excited, and they sang to Callie as we soaked in the sunshine. I can't wait for spring/summer. I'm thrilled about planting our garden and canning our vegetables. I did a little canning this past year (jellies, marmalades, relishes, preserves), and it has become my new favorite hobby. I envision a sparkling white pantry, with shelves bulging from our garden's produce...maybe a little ambitious, but one day, I hope that's reality.
Have a very merry weekend!!!!!!

Love love love the precious Poole party!! Those pictures are adorable! Andrew doesn't cry when I hold him either. I think he said he was amazed by my beauty?

What a precious post, Jen! I loved the pics of the Poole's expanding party and hearing about your new hobby! I have no idea how to do that but always wanted to lol...you'll have to fill me in once you start canning for the masses... which I have no doubt you could do ;). OH, and at the rate you girls are going.. ya'll might possibly just supercede the human population in 2030 lol haha. Love you all
