A record breaker

Seriously. Celia Day Urbanek was born in 8 minutes. That's from the time I was wheeled back into the surgery suite to the time she was actually birthed. Eight minutes. Fortunately, there are no pictures of those 8 minutes. But I have lots of pictures of our new, beautiful, baby girl. We love her which is probably a given. But her sister and brother love her too! She was born June 1, 2012. Of course, don't ask me what she weighed or how long she was. I can't even remember my name right now. We're hoping she is a better baby than the other two.

Daddy and Kaitlyn taking a break from all the Celia love

Big sister and little sister. Shortly after this picture was taken on June 1st, we learned that Kaitlyn had strep. Lovely.

Beautiful

But I'm not ready

Oh yes you are. So, since I'm really pregnant and all, I decided that it'd be a good time to teach Kaitlyn to ride her bike without training wheels. You know, so I'd feel useful and all. Fortunately, she did it. While I sat in a chair and took pictures. Thank goodness. It was hot.

Going to the chapel...

And we're gonna get maaaarrried. Going to the chapel... This picture gets a spot only because I want to remember this brief time when they got along and loved each other. Actually, this is not a picture of that at all. This is a picture of Evan being good natured and agreeing to play with Kaitlyn when he really wanted to be playing with tractors. But I want to remember it anyway.

During the ceremony, you have to stand up real straight and don't laugh.

The happy couple after they said their vows.

A little bit Easter

Okay, so at almost 9 months pregnant, I wasn't really into Easter this year. Little is the key word in the title of this post. I got one picture. It's, of course, Kaitlyn and Evan ready for Easter Sunday, but honestly, we walked into the church, saw how packed it was, and promptly left. So I'm glad I took this picture. Otherwise it'd be like it never happened.

The coolest Mom job in the world

So I had to work the 2012 Commodity Classic in Nashville in early March and decided to take the family with me. It was, after all, at the Opryland Hotel. And although I really did have to work, we made a fantastic mini-vacation out of it. The kids really had fun at the indoor pool, and they now think that Nashville is entirely in the Opryland Hotel, except for the Grand Ole Opry, which is just a shuttle ride away. They love Nashville aka the Opryland Hotel.

Evan in heaven.

Mississippi winter

So, the winter of 2011-2012 involved big puffy coats and dead deer. Seriously. Look below. That's pretty typical of our Mississippi winters. These are just some miscellaneous photos taken between Thanksgiving 2011 and January 2012.
