Christian: 7 Months

Christian is seven months now. Time is flying by when we have so much going on at our house. Christian is trying hard to crawl. He will get up on his arms and tippy toes, but still needs to learn to pull in his knees. No rush though! He can sit on his own and now plays by himself for a while as long as he has been "fed and watered". He eats everything as you can see and is a pretty good sleeper.



He sleeps in the bassinet for about 4 hours and then joins us in bed for the rest of the night. This week has been bad because his first tooth is coming in. I have been completely paranoid about the swine flu and everything else and I was nervous when he got a fever. I looked closely and could see that little white spot under the gum and sure enough...
Christian is a happy little guy. Always smiling. If you wants to get our attention he just does a short yell. It is so cute. The boys are good at keeping entertained with balls and cars and the remote. He loves the remote to the tv. This is a rare moment when both Tyler and Christian are sleeping.

Happy Belated 7th Birthday Amy!!!

Amy had a great day on her birthday. She made homemade Oreos with yellow icing on Sunday to take to her class at school. She made yellow icing because yellow is her favorite color. She received a book from her 1st grade class where each person took a page to draw a picture for her and write one thing they liked about her. I know I have personally read it twice and I think she has read it over 20 times.

We love you mAmy Cakes

Frottage: "Leaves in the Wind"


Katelyn enjoys art and she is good at it. She is taking art lessons from a lady in our ward that lives a couple doors down- Sister Colleen Parker. Sis Parker is an amazing artist herself. Most of Katelyn's work is in landscapes. She loves being outside.

This one for Susie Q and Jay Christian!

Happy Halloween!

On Sunday "WE" carved the pumpkins. Brigham's was an airplane(a pathetic looking plane that would never ever fly- I will do better next year). Tyler's was a scary pumpkin, Katelyn's was a silly face and Amy's resembled herself- both are missing a lot of teeth right now.


The elementary school always has a costume parade so I snapped these pics at the parade.
Katelyn the witch!!


Amy the bumble bee!!


Tyler the pirate digging for gold!!!

When I was chuckling at the computer Tyler came to see why. Instantly he began crying when he found out I was laughing at him. He would be so sad now to see this post, but give it a few years and he will have a good laugh too:)
