When did they get so BIG??? I have no more little babies in my house.

    I've been asking myself that every day this summer…how did my boys get so big and they're only 3 & 1. What awesome prizes! Thanks for hosting!

  3. Galit Breen says

    July 11, 2011 at 12:04 am

    July 11, 2011 at 12:04 am

    Been waiting for this! Can't wait to see all the blogs that link up! Great prizes btw =)

    Oh yes, every time I tell people BG1 is 6, she quickly corrects me and says "I'm 6 and a half!"…."excuse me!"

    It's crazi how quickly they grow isn't it?!?! Your boys are adorable =)

  5. Mommy Needs a Vacation says

    July 11, 2011 at 12:20 am

    Swoon! Love this idea, Shell! And yes, I'm going to participate (probably Wed?)

    Beautiful boys…they grow up so fast don't they?

  7. Mom of 12 says

    July 11, 2011 at 12:21 am

    Your babies are soo cute! You should have had a dozen too. I love the chance to show mine off. Thanks for doing this.

    Beautiful babies!

    I had to laugh at your comment in Rockin' the Bump about not wanting to stay with babyhood again now that your youngest is 3 and out of diapers. Um, so is mine (he's my only) and I still want another. Does that make me insane?!

    Off to visit other babies and make the baby fever worse…

  9. mama marchand says

    July 11, 2011 at 12:29 am

    You have gorgeous kids, Shell! πŸ™‚

  10. Alissa says

    July 11, 2011 at 12:31 am

    Love all the photos, but the last one is my favorite. Love how the blue brings out his eyes. Thanks for hosting the linky again this month. It's so fun to see everyone with their kiddos.

  11. From Tracie says

    July 11, 2011 at 1:14 am

    Sweet sweet photos.

    There aren't any babies at my house, either.

    You are making me feel very sad about that.

    (if a whole lot of bloggers end up giving birth in about 9 months, I am totally going to say it was your fault because they caught the baby fever from your cute link-ups!)

  12. Stephanie says

    July 11, 2011 at 1:18 am

    So adorable! They do grow so fast. Captain B goes to Kindergarten in September and I'm all "He can't go to school, he's still just a little guy!"

    Love that I actually have pictures to link up for this one πŸ™‚

  13. Alison@Mama Wants This says

    July 11, 2011 at 1:30 am

    You sure make beautiful babies, Shell πŸ™‚

    Love this linky, will hook up soon!!

  14. Jessica says

    July 11, 2011 at 1:36 am

    They are all so adorable.

  15. Jayme says

  16. mom2kiddos says

    July 11, 2011 at 2:08 am

    The kids grow up too fast don't they? Your kids are beautiful.

  17. The Blue Zoo says

    July 11, 2011 at 3:17 am

    Aw, your boys are so cute! =)

    And look at you all fancy with prizes!!

    We need to talk more, I feel like we havent really talked since Blissdom. Unless its because you thought I was a nut job… Which is totally possible. lol

  18. Anastasia says

    July 11, 2011 at 3:23 am

    So adorable! This link up is going to give me serious baby fever, I can just see it now.

  19. Kim @ Mamas Monologues says

    July 11, 2011 at 3:35 am

    They're all adorable! And really, HOW do they get so big?!

    Thanks for this link up! My baby fever is in full force now! πŸ˜‰

  20. Mommy's Paradise says

    July 11, 2011 at 4:03 am

    First of all, your babies were sooooo cute, soooo cuddable and kissable. And second, great idea with the link up.:-)

  21. Putting the FUN in DysFUNctional says

    July 11, 2011 at 5:21 am

    Your babies were adorable! What a fun link up.

  22. JDaniel4's Mom says

    July 11, 2011 at 6:26 am

    They sure are cute!

  23. Heather says

    July 11, 2011 at 6:33 am

    They do grow up fast don't they? My oldest is 10yo now and she's quite the young lady. The twin boys are 2 and they are losing the "babyness". Every now and then when they are tired I catch a glipse of it when they melt into my arms half asleep.

  24. Jessica says

    July 11, 2011 at 6:59 am

    Gorgeous boys and another great link up, can't believe how fast the links are filling up already!

  25. Marcia (123 blog) says

    July 11, 2011 at 7:03 am

    OH MY WORD, Shell, your babies are GORGEOUS!!!!!

    I will do this tonight as I'm at work now and my pics are on the pc at home.

  26. Minivan Mama says

    July 11, 2011 at 7:50 am

    No wonder you had 3! They are so sweet! If I were you, I'd just keep having them! ; )

  27. Lisa @ Two Bears Farm says

    July 11, 2011 at 7:55 am

    Love these pictures! Especially the first of you snuggling your little baby. So sweet. And now he's 6!

  28. Leighannn says

    July 11, 2011 at 8:25 am

    beautiful photos.
    They do grow up fast.. I didn't believe anyone until it started happening to me!

  29. Angie says

    July 11, 2011 at 8:39 am

    What sweet pictures of your boys!!

  30. Dolli-Mama says

    July 11, 2011 at 8:46 am

    Your boys are so cute!
    Thanks for hosting such awesome link-ups!

  31. gin says

    July 11, 2011 at 8:49 am

    Such sweet faces! It is crazy how fast they grow and despite how cuddly a newborn is, I know I am not ready to have another one! This is the best idea for a link up. I loved Rockin' the Bump, so this will be a great extension.

  32. Kmama says

    July 11, 2011 at 8:49 am

    Look at all the links already! I'm planning to link up on Wednesday.

    Your boys were and are so handsome. You're going to have the girls beating your door down.

  33. Natalie says

    July 11, 2011 at 8:53 am

    Oh my word…those boys are too precious!

  34. Evonne says

    July 11, 2011 at 9:01 am

    They are all so precious! And Cub's eyes are to die for!

    Why do they have to grow up?

  35. The Random Blogette says

    July 11, 2011 at 9:03 am

    Those boys do have the most beautiful eyes! There are all so cute. It makes my uterus ache! I wish we could have more but it just isn't in the cards for us. I know we are good though! πŸ˜‰

  36. Carolyn says

    July 11, 2011 at 9:10 am

    I never realized how fast time moved until I had kids.
    My youngest is 9 mos already! Pregnancy never went this fast…

  37. mamamash.com says

    July 11, 2011 at 9:34 am

    I love the snuggles in the first one. They just fold up so conveniently in the beginning. πŸ™‚

  38. Adventures as a Small Town Mom says

    July 11, 2011 at 9:39 am

    I can't believe it is July 11th already! I will get my post up tomorrow πŸ™‚

  39. By Word of Mouth Musings says

    July 11, 2011 at 9:40 am

    LOVE this, and we are out of town til the 25th and not one single photo of any kind is in this little laptop πŸ™
    So I will peruse and be all baby smitten and put the fear of God into my husband that I threaten to have another that at my age would likely have two heads …

  40. Brittney says

    July 11, 2011 at 9:53 am

    awww sweet babies πŸ˜€

  41. Kristin @ What She Said says

    July 11, 2011 at 9:54 am

  42. Barbara says

    July 11, 2011 at 9:56 am

    Your "babies" are adorable!! Such great pics!

  43. Brandi says

    July 11, 2011 at 10:20 am

  44. Kir says

    July 11, 2011 at 10:30 am

    another amazing link from you…

    and those boys of yours, WOW. They are simply beautiful. *sniff, sniff* Love em!

  45. Emmy says

    July 11, 2011 at 10:45 am

    Love that first picture! Such a sweet moment and any time the momma is in the picture is a good thing- ad we are too often behind the camera.

  46. Mama Insomnia says

    July 11, 2011 at 10:50 am

    Great Link up! If I didn't already have a bun in the oven, I would have major baby fever.
    (PS, for some reason the button wasn't working for me, but I do have a few links within the text. I'm not very techy, so I dont know if that counts as a back link)

  47. Adrienne says

    July 11, 2011 at 11:13 am

    Those baby pics are super sweet your little ones are freaking adorable =) I know for me looking at all the baby pics brought a flood of tears I miss my baby bug but I love my big bug and all of our fun.

  54. Kristy says

    July 11, 2011 at 1:04 pm

    Adorable! I do love the first one of both of you. You look so young yourself! And, the black and white is perfect. He looks so cute the way he is laying and his expression.

    Your babies are adorable! I would love to be able to pop back for 15 to 30 minute intervals – preferably when they're being typically teen.

    Just wanted you to know that I did what I said I was going to do – I did a post around your comment – and linked back to you. Thanks for your sweet words last week! I was so blessed!

  65. Missy says

    July 12, 2011 at 11:00 pm

  88. Coffee Lovin' Mom says
