Out on the lawn

With Grammy away spending her vacation on an actual vacation this month instead of enjoying the luxury of the Hatch basement I'm trying to do a better job of getting day to day pics of the boys. Lachlan is opening his eyes quite a bit these days and much to my amazement I actually have a blue eyed child, hard to believe. In the grand tradition of mom blogs, Mac has been saying some pretty funny things lately, for example this exchange from today in our backyard while he was pretending to make soup with rocks and leaves and water:
Mac: "I'm blowing fire onto my soup to make a wish"
Me: "oh, what are you wishing for?"
Mac: "my soup"

I caught Lachlan in a very stretchy mood.

Fall on the Farm

Here are some pics from the annual Hatch family fall party and pig racing extravaganza. First up is little Lachlan who was really well behaved and spend most of the party bundled up in his car seat snoozing.

This picture of Hamilton should help explain why there are large blue stains on his face in all the subsequent photos.

Mac enjoys a pony ride with a nice chocolate cupcake smile.

per grammy's request, here are some new pics of the little guys.

Grammy Visits

Here are some pictures of my mom's visit. It was so wonderful to have her and Cameron around to help with the transition to three kids. My recovery has gone so well and I really can't believe how easily things have gone so far taking care of the boys myself. Prior to delivery I think I was mentally preparing myself for some type of apocalyptic chaos so by comparison it's been pretty smooth sailing.

Three Amigos

Lachlan Scott Hatch has arrived!

He was born Wednesday at 1:30, weighing 8lbs 6oz and 21in long.

We are enjoying having him home and so far the big brothers have loved giving him kisses and picking flowers for him so let the fun of having three kids begin!
