If You Were Wondering...

Kai does wear regular clothes sometimes!

My Chunky Monkey

My beautiful baby girl is 4 months old!!! Time seems to just keep flying! She is 15lbs 13oz and she is a whopping 26 inches! Already three points off the chart for height - holy cow!

Things she has done so far:
*Rolled from her belly to her back
*Rolled from her back to her belly
*Grabs toys (and put them in her mouth)
*Talks (goos & ahhhs)
*Smiles all the time
*Giggled (although she really makes you work for it)
*Sleeps 7-9 hours at night (WOOO-HOOOO!!)
*Scoots around
*Turns her body in circles on the floor
*Eats baby cereal
*Survived Kai trying to teach her how to wrestle

We just love our little Reeses Pieces and feel so blessed to have her as part of our family. She is so much fun and such a happy little girl!!

A Famous Guest

We've had a very famous guest in our house over the last few weeks. He has done so many things with our family, like...

He plays on our computers, literally!

He gets down on the floor and plays with Reese!
He really likes playing with Kai's toys, while sitting in one of the toy cubes.

And he is really good about cleaning the toys after he plays with them!

He takes naps in Kai's bed with some of Kai's "treasures". (Yes, Adele, that is a picture of Anna)

And he is so sweet to pick up clothes - we don't always get them put away...but picked up and put somewhere else. :)

When night time rolls around, he fights "bedtime". He prefers to crash in Reese's bouncer - good thing he is still under the weight limit!

I sure do love having "Spiderman" around...but I can't wait to get Kai back!!!!!!!!

Easter 2009

Our Easter this year was beautiful! The sun was out (yeah!!), the kids were happy, and we got to be with family.

Kai woke up and Troy gave a small lesson on Our Savior and the Resurrection. Then we told him that the Easter Bunny had left him a special gift, but he needed to find it. He bolted out of the bedroom to find it! As soon as he saw it had candy in it, he dug in right away!
Reese was also very excited!!

I love my kids - they are so stinkin' cute!! Kai got an Easter basket, Reese got an Easter basket and Troy got an Easter pot - the Bunny forgot me...although my sweet husband pointed out that Reese can't eat her candies...thanks Troy! :)

I love this picture - can you tell that Troy forgot to comb his hair? :)

My Little Man

And my beautiful baby girl!

Does She Look Like Me?

Lazy Man Rosies...

Anna & Kai singing, "Ring Around the Rosies". Instead of actually walking in a circle, they spin!

A Special Visit

Adele, Anna & Piper came to visit us! Kai was so excited to have "Banana" stay with us for a whole week!! The kids had a blast together and it was so nice to have Adele here, too. Piper and Reese were funny to watch together...I'm excited to see them grow up together (in different states). :)

Jill came into town and brought her two boys, Rhett & Caden. Rhett assisted me in baking some cookies - although I think he could have done it on his own. All the kids had fun together and it was a great visit!

The two monkeys in the popular rocking chair - they shared most of the time.
Piper on her last day with us was begging her mom not to leave the party!

Thanks for coming to visit us! We miss you already and love you so much!!!!
