When I woke up today the HUGE collection of baby stuff((play pens, bumbo seats, clothes, bouncy chairs)) was gone. And although I had helped pack it all up last night, it still seemed odd. Felt off.
I have spent the better part of the last 5 years bringing babies into this world. And I am unbelievably blessed to have 4 perfect, healthy, beautiful little girls. And even though I turned in my child bearing card awhile ago. It hit me, square in the face. This is it. No more babies. I have to say it made me a little sad. I LOVED being pregnant. and now that part of my life is over.
But the sadness passed, probably from the euphoria of reducing a MAJOR amount of clutter. i hate clutter.But also because There is something comforting about knowing that my family is complete. That the scenery may change, my girls are gonna grow, Daddy and I will age, but it will be the six of us against the world. and that makes me happy.

We have an annoucement...
and NO, we arent having another baby!
Daddy, Mommy and the Fultz 4 are future Texas residents.
Daddy's job is relocating us so that "the team" is all together. We are excited (and anxious and scared and optimistic and planning and obsessing and overthinking) for our new adventure.
I always thought I would make a great Southern Belle, and although it may be a little late for me... I am hoping the girls get cute southern accents!! So we are going to enjoy the spring here in Whatcom county and will be saying our farewell sometime in June in hopes that we can get settled and adjusted in time for Cailin to start kindergarten and Reegan preschool.
Right now its all just starting to sink in, I have so much research to do ((Did you know there arent ANY Trader Joe's in the entire state of Texas????? the horror)) so many lists and plans to make. But I will say this... I am excited, ecstaic, ALMOST giddy to be moving somewhere with a REAL mall!!!

Complete Overhaul...
I have decided.
Its time for a new look, a new approach.
Every day I say I am going to update about this or that and then, well its a looong list. Life gets busy around here and it gets put off until tomorrow, again and again.
I tried to update the big things, BUT the real beauty is in the little everyday things. The things that bring me to tears of joy, pull out my hair in frustration, laugh so hard I wet myself (REALLY my bladder is not so good these days). My life... My life with girls. 4 beautiful, silly birds who make my life, well my life. A life I never dreamed of. The things I want to remember, Cailin singing my favorite Lit song, or Reegan telling me I am her best friend. or how Kieryn will let nothing keep her from crawling into mhy lap anytime its free or how Adysen gazes at me and I cant remember what life was like without her. So my new approach is going to be that...daily (well almost daily) updates of the lil things...good...bad...and sometimes ugly.
So just to catch you up.
The highlight reel...
Adysen is 3 months old...and still so easy going. sleeping thru the night and some days into the early afternoon
Kieryn is 15 months old and still refusing to walk. She loves the summer and patty cake."Roooooolllll it"
Reegan is, well, Reegan. Counting to ten, singing her ABC's and doing everything she can to keep up with her BIG sister and best friend, Cailin
Cailin is Big sister extraordinaire. So helpful(too helpful at times). Loves the slip and slide and CANNOT wait for kindergarten, even though she hasn't even started PreK 4 yet :):)
Daddy and Mommy are enjoying the summer, no school for daddy so we have more time for family. We have decided our family may not be completely complete. So we have selected a date and if we are blessed with another pregnancy by then, well we are going to have another baby obviously, and if we aren't we are going to take a permanent step to stay Daddy, Mommy and 4 lil ladies.

Checkin In...
Feels like its been awhile.... Probably because i am all consumed with my sweet lil girls and darling babies. Adysen is a wonderful addition to our lil tribe... sleeping well, eating well. Like all her sisters before her just an all around GREAT baby. We are so blessed, just ask us... well any of us EXCEPT Kieryn... She is not as fond of Adysen as the rest of us are. (Mommy is feeling a little guilty about that, poor lil thing didnt get to be the baby for an entire year)
That said, our Kieryn Kingsleigh celebrated her 1st birthday surrounded by family, friends and tons of LOVE. Great Grandma and Grandpa Fultz came to visit. She has NO interest in walking, but we shoulda seen that coming since she seems t
o be follwowing in Cailins footsteps and Cailin refused to walk until she was nearly 15 months old!!!
Mommy is tired, tired, tired! There are never enough hours in the day...but i am not sure there ever were. I have high hopes we will find our rhtymn shortly. But I am ever greatful for Daddys never ending help. Even after work and school he finds time to help around here. I am one lucky lady...
I am hoping to find some free time in the next few days to post some pictures of the girls and everything that has been going on around here. And to work on Adysen's birth story...so many funny things to share about our hospital stay.
Oh and in case you were wondering.... maybe just maybe Team Fultz will expand again.... you do need 5 people for a starting Basketball Line Up....:):)

Super Bowl Sunday...
We here at Team Fultz have never been big on Super Bowl parties, probably because we like to watch the game in our sweats. Every sunday of the season we celebrate Football Sundays, we hang out together, eat in and enjoy the time together. Super Bowl Sunday isnt much different. We had Daddy's awesome bacon avocado cheeseburgers and made cupcakes. Great Day. My favorite kind of day.
and... It was Kier's 1st SuperBowl!!!
YUMMMMMMMMMM.....
and even more yuuuummmmmmmmmmm......

Baby Update...
Friday the WHOLE team went to visit Dr Madsen. The girls got to hear their baby sister's heartbeat for the first time. Our lil girl is still growing quickly... she is measuring 2 weeks ahead of schedule, which I guess is better than 4, but still BIG!!!
With only 10 weeks (hopefully less) we are starting to get prepared for her arrival. We got her crib, for a steal (75 bucks!!! Thank you Target clearance!!). I have sorted all the baby clothes out by size, made a tiny wish list of things she just HAS to HAVE!:) Can I say the best part of being on baby #4 is that I can focus on details like cute clippies and bibs and burp clothes instead of huge, costly necessities!!! and although i love being pregnant i will be glad when this is all over!! i have big plans to reclaim my once slim, cute body before my 30th birthday!!
Very very soon we will reveal to you our final princess' name.... in true Team Fultz fashion we have changed our minds from our original choice...but have settled on a name we both love! So all's well that ends well!
