Love those boys...

Was trying to get a pic of a funny face that Preston makes, but everytime I put the camera in front of him he would just grin and grin.. So cute..


Love this pic with him pointing trying to grab the camera.. He just cracks me up..


Love that face.. He just makes me happy.

My dad gave Camden this hat, and now he wont take it off and he wont let me make it smaller either.. Too funny.


Tried to get a cute shot of Carter.. He was enjoying his Jam sandwich..

Preston Crawling...

HE DID IT....

Yeah... My little guy finally lifted his fat body off the ground and did some crawling today.. It was so cute and fun to watch. He has been doing the army crawl and he will get up on all 4 and rock back and forth but as he goes to crawl he always goes to his stomach. Well today at the tree house he was acted like he was gonna crawl and he did.. It was so cute. He only went maybe 3 feet (that was where the toy was at) and I've yet to get him to do it again today.. But I'm sure by the end of the weekend he will be all over the place. (even though he already is) .. Wish I had a pic to go along but hubby as the camera with him. So it will just have to wait.. But man we are excited to see him doing some crawling....

9 month checkup

Preston had his 9 mo check up today.. Glad to say he is a very healthy big boy..

Here are his stats...
:Weight: 23.25 lbs. *83%
:Length: 30 in *91%
:Head: 18 in *92%

Our little guy is not so little anymore.. We love him just the way he his.. We love those fat check and the rest of his fatness.. He is such a happy baby.. He has 7 teeth in and does really good with teething.. He is working on crawling.. He can finally lift his body off the ground and is doing the rocking motion.. I'm thinking in a week or so he'll be all over the place.. He already rolls anywhere he needs to go. It's also nice that he can go from laying to sitting.. We are very lucky to have such a wonderful little (big) guy..


Just a cute shot I tried to get of the boys. We were headed to a baby blessing and of course Preston had to check other things out.. But thought it turned out pretty cute..

Feeling Green...

Do you ever realize you've done something without thinking about it.. Well today as I'm getting myself and the kids ready.. I realize we are all wearing green. Thought it was funny that we would all end up in green.

So what does feeling green mean:

Green, one of most-often cited favorite colors. It represents nature, environment, health, good luck, renewal, youth, vigor, spring, generosity, fertility, jealousy, inexperience, envy, misfortune.
"Its cool quality soothes, calms, and has great healing powers." It is often worn in operating rooms by surgeons.
In China, green hats mean a man's wife is cheating on him; it is not a good color for packaging.
In France studies have indicated green is not a good color choice for packaging either.
In India green is the color of Islam.
In Ireland green has religious significance (Catholic).
In some tropical countries green is associated with danger.












They also had this in another section..
GreenCurrently the most popular decorating color, green symbolizes nature. It is the easiest color on the eye and can improve vision. It is a calming, refreshing color. People waiting to appear on TV sit in "green rooms" to relax. Hospitals often use green because it relaxes patients. Brides in the Middle Ages wore green to symbolize fertility. Dark green is masculine, conservative, and implies wealth. However, seamstresses often refuse to use green thread on the eve of a fashion show for fear it will bring bad luck.

Treehouse

Took the kids to the Tree house on Wed.. The kids had a blast. I was able to leave Preston home with Bunna (my mother) so it was nice not to carry him around. Carter is asking to go back again today, but not sure it's in the cards.


I think the red hat looks good on him.



Having fun in the fire engine.. Carter liked this one much better then the one that was at our last last Sat night.. (Different story)


They built this new climbing thing that takes you up to the middle of the tree, the kids love climbing up and down it.

Another new item is the sword in the stone.. Carter was rather sad he couldn't pull the sword out of the stone.


Camden trying with all his might to get the sword out.


The back of the fire truck.


Camden in full cowboy gear.. Doing his best to rock the horse back and forth.

Stuff...

Just some fun pics I needed to post..


Had a play date with a friend and my niece last friday. Me and Carter baked cupcakes early that morn after shoveling the snow.. Being the nice mom that I am.. I let him lick the beater at 8:20 a.m. I think he even got some in his mouth.
While putting this post up Carter came and saw the pic and said "Look at my face I want to do that again."


Alex, Anyston and Preston
The little babies.. As you can see they weren't too happy to have there picture taken.. Alex is 6 weeks younger then P and 6 weeks older the Anyston. I'm still afraid Preston could eat them both..


Put the kids goggles on Preston and he thought they were fun for 2 sec, then he started pulling on them. I thought they looked cute on his fat face.



Camden and friends playing outside.. They had a little follow the leader thing going on.



Not sure what they were doing, although I did see them eating big balls of snow. But heck they were being good and having fun in the white stuff.
This is Carter after his day of eating cupcakes, playing with friends, being in the snow and running around with me.. Love those times when I walk into a room and he is sound asleep even if he is still somewhat standing..
