Coming to and End.

 

I can't believe days like this are coming to an end.  Makes me sad to think we will be cooped up inside the house for the next 6 months.  Gosh...thats like spring, summer AND fall combined!!  The boys are going to be crazy wild by Jan....I can't wait.

 

this kid LOVES to dig.  He would dig up the entire yard if I would let him.  Nick will take him to work and let him drive the backhoe.  He is obsessed with big boy toys!

 

That's a learning to walk ouchie.  Did a face plant on the chair leg!

 

Look at the rosy cheeks on those two!

 

Kisses.

 

My sweet little thumb sucker!

 

check out his curls!!

 

Love that sweet face!

New Things and a Giveaway!!

This little guy had lots of milestones this last week!  He got 2 teeth within 2 days {you can see them in the picture below}, he had food, real food, sweet potatoes to be exact for the first time today.  So far, so good.  I think he would have eaten the entire jar...had I let him...

 Sam is serving up some yummy food, a scoop of mashed potatoes,

a sliced tomato and a lego!  Yum! ;)

 ....and he found his toes!!

 This little guy is FINALLY feeling better!!  After about 5 weeks of being sick off and on.  I took him in to the Dr. and he says Ethan had influenza. {ick}  Thank goodness the other boys DID NOT get it.  I Lysol-ed everything everyday!!  I think it helped! :)

Now~ to ENTER the $40 shop GIVEAWAY...

head over to See Kate Sew.  Good Luck!!

5 Months Old!!

I know, it's been a while since I posted some pictures!!!  So enjoy these!! :)

All the boys have been pretty sick for the last week and a half or so.  Finally took them all to the Dr. only to find out they all have sinus infections and ear infections.  Only Sam and Griffin got antibiotics...the Dr. thought Ethan was old enough to fight it off on his own.  He ended up missing ALL WEEK of school!  Poor guy felt so sick he even took naps. {SO unlike Ethan} 

They are doing better now.  Griff got a really sore bum from the amoxicillian {gave him the runs} so now he is taking a probiotic to help with that too.  3 meds a day....when he likes taking none.  Fun times! ;)

Well we found out Griffin's weight when we took him in .... 19 lbs 10oz!!!!  He gained 2lbs. over the last MONTH.  We haven't started solids yet either.  Gave him rice cereal a couple times, only for him to end up throwing it up.  I think we might end up skipping cereal all together and go straight to food.  We'll see.

{don't you just love fat little hands!?}

{He really gets up there, lifts his belly way up!}

{I put the boys's footprints in picture frames...turned out so cute}

{This is the morning Sam woke up with a rash on his chest and face and a fever!  Thought he had roseola!}

{Ethan likes the bumbo more than G does...and he fit's better than G does!}

Rollin Around.

Well, Griffin did it.  He finally rolled over a few days ago.  I thought he was too big to roll over, but he proved me wrong!! :)  My little sweetie is growing up!

{talking to Mama}

{helping make crepes on Valentines Day!}

{Playing Mario Cart} - This is extremely rare.  The boys playing.  NICELY.

Just the 3 of us!

I love it when me and my 2 littlest get quality time in the afternoons whole Ethan attends pre-school.  Good cuddle time!!

 Checking out Mr. Ele

 My sleepy boy. :)

 Picking the stickers off all the apples!

So sleepy after shots!

G is by far our hugest baby yet!  We got the green light from our new Dr. to start rice cereal.  Its definitely not a priority since he is already so big, but I think it might help his reflux, since it's getting bad again.  For the past week or so, G has been SUPER DUPER fussy.  He refuses to nurse to sleep anymore, making me feel like I have no idea how to console him.  I feel useless when he is fussy.  Super Dad/Husband actually does a better job than I do! :(  Nick has had to rock him to sleep the last 5 nights, as Griffin just screams and screams when it's me.  I feel like I am at a total loss.  Nothing seems to work to calm him down.  He basically just has to cry it out.  And if you know me, I hate that, I could never do that to my child!!

I know he is teething, I can feel the teeth bumps in hid gums...I hope those suckers pop through soon!!  He is such a good baby in the morning and once evening comes...he's out of control!! :(  I feel so bad for him!! 

I have learned NOT to hold onto any clothes because I think they might be "too big".  Several outfits I thought for sure were too big for him, are actually too small.  I could barely get his arms into one of them because his forearms are so chubby!  I don't think he was comfy in it at all.  Never wore it, and I already have to retire it!
