5 little ghosts

Don't you just love my 5 little ghosts!?! I got this idea from Caden's preschool teacher and just had to do it. Plus, it makes a perfect 12x12 scrapbook page!! I am a sucker for anything with my kids *prints* on them!

2 months

I can hardly believe my baby is 2 months old. He is already growing up way too fast. He is a big boy! His 2 month stats are:

14 pounds (95%)

24 inches (90%)

Micah has brought us so much joy!! He is the best baby!! Our first 4 were difficult - reflux, fistulas, NICU....so it's been nice to have a relatively easy baby. He is smiling and cooing, which I love!! He has the biggest, brightest eyes and a beautiful smile, not to mention the yummiest cheeks!! You can't help but smile when he smiles at you. The kids adore him and I love watching them *interact* with him. He is such a sweet little guy and we are cherishing every moment with him!!

Yummy cheeks!!

love that face!

So big!!

random pictures

I am trying to get caught up on the blog. Sorry about the million posts today!! :) Here are some random pictures of the kids.

Colton loves to hold and walk around with Micah...and Micah LOVES him!! It is so sweet to watch how gentle and loving Colton is with him.

Sweet boy!

Caden and Micah

Caden loves his baby brother.

Miss Mia - wearing an outfit that Janie got her when it was still warm outside and she has been itching to wear it!! She wore it on our first cold day!!

Grandpa meets Micah

My dad had some time off from work and came down to see us. We were so excited for him to meet Micah!! He was able to stay for a week and a half and we had a great time with him. While he was here, we enoyed movies, eating out, a soccer game, and nightly Bananagrams tournaments!!! As always, the kids loved having Grandpa here....and are looking forward to him coming again.

Too funny!!

I made chocolate chip cookies for the kids. I had them on the cooling rack and when I came back into the kitchen, this is what I found. Apparently, Caden felt like Cookie Monster needed to "guard the cookies".

Soccer

What have we been up to?? Soccer, soccer, and more soccer!!! Between the practices during the week and the weekend game, we have spent a lot of time at the soccer fields. Colton loves it...and we love watching him!! He has played some really exciting games!

Colton's cheering section!!

Mason's birthday

Gosh, I am so far behind on my blogging!!! Here are some pictures from Mason's birthday. He loved his Sesame Street cake! He was so funny....he was happy until we lit the candles on his cake. Then he covered his eyes and cried (silently) the whole time we were singing happy birthday to him. As soon as we were done and he blew out the candles (with my help), he got a taste of the frosting and was instantly happy. Silly boy!!

Happy - before the singing

we started singing and he got sad (we must have sounded really bad!!)

covering his face and crying

yummy frosting! Now he's happy!!

Time for presents!!!!!!!!
