Every day is a new adventure of motherhood... keeps on going and going.

These are the two that keep mommy up at night. Daddy snores through it! Ari has been getting her teeth.. more and more keep on coming. I keep on worrying that its her ears but so far it hasn't been.

And this is one of those nights.. The one to the right is deceiving. She takes kitty naps..

which are smaller than cat naps. She is doing better at night however.

Cici aka Claire

Sisters.. sisters... There could never be better sisters.

Ari's owies! Don't you love the days. One thing is for sure.. when your kids are really close you visit your doctor more. I was just in yesterday.. I can't believe that it has been 6 weeks since I took Ari in. Mike came with us and I don't think you could put anyone else into one of those little doctor rooms. All of our kids had shots given to them. Isaac and Lillie received a flu shot. Guess who was the worst.. or should I say cried the most... the oldest.

Baby visitors

We have been so happy to have so many visitors to welcome Cici into our home. We have loved getting diapers and wipes from Costco. It is ultimately the best gift.

Lillie, Mike, Martha, Claire, Puppy, Ari, Ron and Grandma Parrish. Isaac was being obstinate and refused to be in the picture. Martha and Ron came up from Santa Cruz, CA. We love seeing them. Hopefully we will go down and visit them soon.

Sundays at our house. Since my parents house is getting remodeled we have been lucky to have all the get togethers at ours. We love visiting with family and our kids love it too. Sundays are our favorite day.
My sisters Marisa and Kalise. Brother in law Brian and of course.. Baby Talmage.
Marisa will be expection her first in August. We are so excited for another Summer baby.


Me, Cici, and Isaac.

Claire meets her family.. Soon after coming home from the hospital. Ari the snake eater, Lillie ballerina, Isaac alias Super gray man.

Ari learing to be gentle with the baby. Notice the tear.. I think daddy accidently hurt her feelings.

Lillie loving her sister.

Claire Cesily Davenport

Sorry it has taken so long to post these pics. of our new little one. I have been trying to cope with having four children...:) many days are pretty crazy. I will try to keep up to date. We are all doing really well. I can't believe it has already been two months ago that we brought our fourth child home from the hospital. She is doing well and the children love their new sibling. She gets kissed, patted, pulled, hugged, more pats and is just all around loved by her brother and sisters.

Welcome to the Davenport Clan! Claire Cesily Davenport. Your father named you.. I will have to tell you the story sometime. I chose your middle name.. after my wonderful sister and friend Cesily. May you grow up to be just like her or atleast be blessed with some of her admiring qualities.

Claire was my smallest baby by far. 6lbs and 12 oz., 17 inches long.. Grandma didn't know that babies came that small.. but they do. Claire has made up for it. She is now 10lbs 1oz. in the 30 percentile rather than the fifteenth that she was born in. Her doctor and I are very happy.
