Four Months

Little M says hi. He pretty much smiles every time you talk to him. Just stand in front of him and say anything and he breaks into a grin. Makes you smile back.

One Day of Spring

So it was spring for about 24 hours and then it started to rain again. ButI had been promising to take them to the park all week and we had to get out there before this dreaded rain reappeared. Sadly Little Miss M missed out because she was a school- I can only do so much!!

Mighty Warrior

This is what happens when your mom stays in bed 15 minutes late and leaves the seven year old to practice his warrior paint skills. I think he is bit too old for that.

The Faux Sit

He can't REALLY sit, it is just the faux sit he has going. But he is so cute!! (He is definitely his mommy's baby!)

Digging Holes

Never pass up the opportunity to play in mud. Digging holes always allows for that. This started out innocent enough. By the end M had no shoes on...??????? Baby E had a wet behind and three quarters of his sleeves and the orchestrator was as dry as a whistle. Dry but muddy. And all this from helping Dad dig holes for a new fence.

Now or never

It is quite possible that if I don't just start writing about life now that I will never blog again. There is no way that I will ever catch up. Life is just to hectic with four under seven. And if I keep putting this off then they will be 16 when I am finally doing this and that seems to be the same problem that I had with scrapbooking. So between November and now we:

had a baby

had M birthday

had Thanksgiving

had E's birthday

had Christmas with everyone

went to Disneyland

started baseball

had more ballet recitals

had the Pinewood Derby

Valentine's day

etc. etc.

So here they are at 7, 4, 2 and almost 4 months...

And baby makes six!

Thursday, November 5, 2009 our little baby boy arrived and made our crazy clan of five a crazy clan of six. Before we headed off to the hospital we took one last family picture before our new little man arrived.

I started to have contractions early that morning and our doctor said to come right in. We got to the hospital around 8:30 and baby M arrived at 2:30 that afternoon. He was perfect. Almost seven pounds and 19 1/2 inches long. A head of dark brown hair and E's coloring. The kids all came to visit us that evening. We brought our little man home the following day at just about 25 hours old. He fit right into our world. And boy was he loved from the first moment on.
