Chub-EEEEEEE

I just love how squishy this little guy is! My scale is horrible, so i'm not quite sure how much he weighs, but i'm guessing about 15 pounds. Not bad for a 2 month old that started out at 7lb 15oz and lost weight at 2 weeks while he was sick in the hospital. You know that song that goes, "My milkshakes bring all the boys to the yard...".. Yeah, my friends say that's my theme song when I nurse. I just wish him gaining more weight, meant me losing it... Oh well...I LOVE me some baby chubs!

Have you missed the TuTu's?

They've pretty much been collecting dust this past year so I thought I pull one out and make bella wear it for a little photo date. The funky outfit definately fits her spunky personality.



okay - this next pic is totally out-of-focus, but I had to show you the building we found that matched her outfit PERFECTLY! She wanted nothing to do with this. She said that she could see what it looked like in her mind, and it looked DUMB! Well... it wouldn't have looked dumb if she would have stood still for more that 2 seconds. :)

just for GIGGLES...

which is exactly what i did when i saw this pull up on my lcd screen. :)

2 months...

...goes by way too fast with a newborn.

Our Photo Date...

I just got my book back from BLURB where I had them "slurp" my blog. My kids love having my blog in their little hands so they can look at it for hours. However, one of the first comments I got from "H" was... "There's hardly any pictures of me in here."
Oops... She was sooo right. It seems like I always have my camera out while she's at school or just not in the mood. So.. Friday we headed out on a special photo-date together. We had so much fun and she did so great posing for the camera.
Don't you think she's so Beautiful!?!







I have lots more, but I guess I'll leave you with these. :)

Sweet Hearts!

Yesterday Jack came to show me his valentine's day sweet hearts that his big sister had shared with him. I asked him what his hearts said. His response.....
"Ummm..... They don't talk."
It made me giggle. :)



What do your hearts say?

Happy Valentine's Day!

no kisses, just a whole lot a SASS!

SUPERMAN!

I LOVE when little "J" wears these jammies. I just think they fit his personality so well. He's just such a little stud in them. Don't ya think?

showing me his muscles! What a strong little dude!


I only wish he was wearing them yesterday at the park when I took this picture...

Taking my BLog back :)

The WRAPS....

Okay, so this is gonna be A LOT of photos so let me start by explaining. The week before Carson was born I found a link to a photog's site who was selling wraps to take pics of newborns in. They were gorgeous and I so badly wanted one, but she had gotten sooo many orders that she had discontinued taken any more until after the first of the year. I knew this would be too late because by then my baby would be over 2 weeks old and just too big by the time I would get it. So... I forwarded the link to my knitting mom and asked if she could whip/knit one up before Carson was born and bring it out with her. Well... she came out with 5 wraps! So the photo shoots began... I didn't get great pics of him in all of them before our trip to the hospital, but here are a few...







and then since she was going to be here for 2 weeks and I was supposed to be taking it ease, I asked to to try and teach me how to knit. So, we headed to walmart to pick out some yarn. This cool ribbon yarn was on clearance and LOOK what I did with it?!?!?!?!!!!!!

I'm a little proud of myself, not to mention that that is my new favorite photo
a few more...




How's that? 2 posts in 1 day??? I must be bored...or lonely...or who knows?

Snow Day!

Yeah -that's right and it's sunday! We got soooo much snow this week and even more last night that they cancelled church. The road conditions were just too bad. Crazy! So the kids went outside with Cliff to help him shovel and started building themselves a little igloo. I swear this is more snow than we've seen the whole time we've lived in Idaho. It just won't quit! At least the kids are enjoying themselves! :)

and H inside of it ready to lob a snowball at me and my pretty camera...

6 weeks already!

and I can't believe it! He's getting huge! But he's still just the sweetest little dude ever!




Love him!
