Check out these updates!

I did a few updates from the past months. If you are interest in the happenings from a while ago, follow these links.

Santa Pictures

I took the kids to see Santa way back in November. Yes I am that far behind in my updating. We did a deal at Sears where we got three pictures with Santa for $10, a much better deal than going to the mall. Weston was so freaked out by the big guy. He didn't want to go near him and clung to my leg. I put him up by Santa and told him just smile for me and then we can leave. It was a pretty fast experience so Weston didn't have to suffer for long.

Eva's 4 Month Pictures

I had Eva's 4 month photos taken on Dec 8 but it has taken me a while to get them posted. She is the cutest little thing you have ever seen. She is such a happy baby girl. I don't know how I ended up with the sweetest baby ever but I am one lucky mommy. At her 4 month well baby check she was super healthy however quite small. She dropped from the 74% for weight at 2 months down to the 5% for 4 months. The doctor put her on cereal and supplementing with formula. It has been a challenge getting her to take a bottle but finally in the last few days she had started to like it. Unfortunately that has ended our time breastfeeding. It is bittersweet. I love breastfeeding but being able to have someone else feed her is nice as well. I am just sad because every moment with her is my last chance. I know that the last time I feed her is the last time I ever get to breastfeed because we are not have any more children. While moving on to the next stage is wonderful, I just didn't want it to happen quite this early. Of course I just want her to be happy and healthy above all else. She sleeps so well and is always happy. She loves to talk and coo and she will play with easy to grasp toys now. I love watching her learn and to watch her siblings entertain her. She is just always so smiley. I makes me happy just to be near her.

Pumpkin Carving

We didn't get our pumpkins carved until Halloween day. For some reason we just kept putting it off and I had given up on them. Chad ended up getting off work early so we could carve them up before we celebrated the holiday. Chad is an amazing pumpkin carver and was able to carve all five of them in a matter of an hour. I was thankful for his mad skills. The kids had a great time this year. They both put their hands in and were willing to touch the goo. It was a fun way to start the night.

Preschool Costume Parade

Weston dressed up as Super Why this year for Halloween. His school had a class party and costume parade that I was able to attend. He was so cute and so excited to walk around the Rec Center and trick or treat. Ms. Deserae had to take his candy bucket from him because he was trying to eat every piece before more was put in. I am so happy that he loves his school and they have so much fun.

Weston Starts Preschool

Weston started preschool on the first Tuesday in September. He was so excited to wear his new clothes and get to go to school like Quinn. He is attending the same preschool Quinn went to for the last two years. We love the program there and I just know he is going to learn so much.
