Just another day...

Here's a little peek into what goes on in my house on a regular basis.

Chloe came into the living room crying because she couldn't get something out of her hair. I had to take a picture (or 3) of it before I helped her get it out. Who knows how things like this happen???

She wasn't too happy that I wasn't helping her get it out...

So I made her give me a smile, and this is what I got.

Please keep in mind that this was before baths and changing out of pj's

Then there's Elijah, who I literally just got onto while typing this for ripping a page out of a book, who loves to get into the excersaucer, or really anything for that matter...



He got stuck in it the first few times...and I didn't help him out. I guess I figured it was easier to leave him in there and listen to him get mad than to chase him around the house.


He's got it figured out now.

Darn it!

Getting back in.

I got my wish when I wanted a boy after having the 2 girls...and I got the boyest in the land! My mom always says, well, you got that boy you always wanted! I do love him more than life itself, but *sigh* he's so incredibly full of energy, I just can't keep up!



My mom got the boys matching pj's and I love them! They are so cute!


Elijah tickling Isaac's foot...notice Elijah is the one laughing.


And kisses from sissy are the best!



It looks like he's trying to pucker up in this one.



Awww...how sweet!



This is his new face he makes constantly! He couldn't be any sweeter!!

I know, I have no pictures of Laney...she's always at school when the camera is out. I know...excuses. I'll take some of her this weekend. I need to get her hair cut...it grows so fast!

Isaac's collage

Wow, it's been a while since I've posted anything in here, and now at 11:30pm, I have a tired, but quick moment to do it. I started scrapbooking a long time ago and did pretty good keeping up with them before I got pregnant with Isaac. That poor little baby doesn't have one thing started for him...not even a baby book. Trying to keep up with 4 kids' scrapbooks is beyond impossible, so I got a digital scrapbooking program for Valentine's day and I've been putting it to good use. I made this collage with pictures I took of Isaac. He's totally into his feet now, so getting a good shot of just his face was a little tricky if I didn't want his little tootsies in the shot.

Getting Big!!!

Isaac is almost rolling over!! He keeps getting his arm stuck underneath him, and then he'll fall asleep on his side trying. :) He's still sleeping about 10 hours at night without waking up. He's not so laid back when he's awake though. He likes to be held alot...that could have something to do with the fact that I've been holding him alot lately, trying to soak in all his baby-ness since this is my last one.

Elijah had his 2 year check up last Friday, and I've realized that he's really tiny for his age. He's in like the 10th percentile for weight and the 5th for height. I've been concerned with his speech lately...he's not putting 2 words together or anything yet, so I had her check that and she said that he's fine. Boys apparently talk later than girls. I counted up all the words he says, and it comes to about 50. She said that if I'm still concerned about it in 6 months, then I can bring him back and she'll check him again. So we'll see... Oh, she also said that he has fluid in one of his ears and that could be why he's been getting up at night and why he isn't talking so much too. Ever since I started him on the antibiotic she prescribed, he's been sleeping through the night. Yay!

Here's a video of Isaac talking and laughing.

Happy 2nd Birthday Elijah!

My little man is 2!!

I love you sweet boy!!!

Smiley boy

Here's a video I took a while back of Isaac smiling and cooing. He went to the dr. last Friday and weighed in at 13lbs. and 25in. long! He smiles and tries to talk so much now...I love it! :)

Snow and cookies

These are pictures from December when we got the first snow of the season and the girls decorating Christmas cookies.

Christmas

We had a great Christmas! It was so special, because this is the last year that we would have a "baby's first Christmas". Isaac obviously had no idea what was going on, but the other kids had a blast. This was also the first year that Elijah kinda understood what was going on. He loved it!! We spent Christmas morning at home and then went to my mom's for a late breakfast with my sisters and their families. Here's some pics of the kids with their presents. :)
