The King Crew

This weekend we had the chance to go see some good friends for a very special day--their babies blessings. Shortly after finding out I was pregnant with Makai I found out my friend was pregnant with not one, not two, but three little boys! Yes, she's a very competitive woman. She caught up with us in one shot!:) She jokes that all that work and she didn't even beat us--Only tied! It was awesome to watch them be blessed. Their blessings were very touching. These three boys have a special bond with one another.Monty is holding Colton. Colton was born at less than 3lbs, but now is a hefty 8lb boy! In the back Betsy was enjoying Makai. Tyler spent the afternoon making airplanes for Cameron and Carolyn. The kids had so much fun flying these bad boys. We've wanted to get a picture of our four boys together. Of course, you can tell which one is Makai, then Connor, Caleb, and Colton.(I was honored to get Caleb ready for church, so we have a special bond which is good because Betsy broke the cardinal rule and woke the poor guy up for this picture.) Brett and Monty catching up while Makai took a little snooze. Church wiped him out. It was hard to have so many old friends owing and ahhhing over him. The beautiful Richards women and Tationa.
After church it was so fun to sit and just talk to Betsy about how she's adjusting to her new life. Her response is simply and I quote, "I LOVE MY LIFE! I LOVE MY BOYS!" Here she is holding Conner. I'm proud of myself because after one afternoon I can tell them apart.

Thanks for letting us be a part of your special day. We are so proud of your guys. Hail to the Kings! Your family is adorable.

I know James would like to catch up to how many kids you have, but I sure don't think I want to try and do it with 3 at one time. I'm glad you had fun.

Oh sweet day!! I like how the baby boys are set up from big to little:) How far apart are they from Makai?

Mammy said...

Looks like a fun time! Makai looks strangely out of place in the picture with the triplets--they just can't measure up in the legs department. But they are sooo cute! What a task this mom and dad have before them. But if they made it this far still smiling, they'll do just great!

I'm finally catching up on your blog. These triplets and twins are keeping us pretty busy. We loved having your family up here. Cameron & Carolyn really look up to your boys. They are so kind and gentle with our children.

Thanks Salanoas for being part of our special day!
