Look who's smiling

Here we go...life is going to get even busier! Max is starting to smile and develop his own little personality. He is doing a little better at nights, he sleeps anywhere from 6 to 8 hours. I have tried not to get my hopes up when he sleeps for 8 hours but I am hopeful soon it will happen consistently.



We blessed Max Sunday at church, we really appreciate all of you who came to support us, we truly have been blessed with great friends and family. Poor Noah was sick and didn't make it through sacrament meeting, so far it doesn't seem that anyone else has come down with what he had, (knock on wood).


I have a nine year old! I can't believe how fast time really goes by...Lyndsey had an ice skating party last weekend for her birthday and it was a blast. (she really is my daughter, do you see the Dr. Pepper in the corner?) I was a little nervous when we started because there were about 4 of the kids that had never skated before, thankfully one of the parents stayed to help their two daughters and the other two caught on really quick. Mitchell, Noah's friend was so funny, he had never skated before and went out there with such determination...he would skate as hard as he could and when he fell he would jump right back up and keep going.

Jacob's many adventures

Happy Holidays, thought I would share some fun pictures of our never stopping, always moving Jacob!

I wanted to get out of the house the other day when Dave got home so we decided to go walk around the mall....(this was before Thanksgiving so we didn't have to worry about crowds). Santa was already there so we decided to get that tradition out of the way and have the kids tell Santa what they wanted for Christmas. As Lyndsey, Noah and I were walking up to Santa, Dave decided to send Jacob, but he wasn't sure about the funny guy in the red suit. Santa tried several times to talk to him and hold out his hand and all Jacob would do is say "No" and hit his hand, he even tried giving him a coloring book and crayons but Jacob wasn't going to fall for that, he knew to stay away from the big guy!



I know every child is different and I am learning that more and more each day, but I never thought that this would include how they wear pj's. For Lyndsey and Noah I loved the zipper sleepers because I didn't worry about them getting cold at night, however with Jacob he wears them a little more shall we say revealing than the others....Some mornings I am afraid to open the door because I am not sure what I will encounter!!!



As with every kid, Jacob loves to play in the tupperware drawer, lately he has a favorite bowl and he wears it wherever he goes.




Well that is all from this house....we have a busy weekend coming up with Lyndsey's b-day party and Max's blessing so be expecting more updates.
