Late Easter Pix

These pix are really late! These are Easter morning pix. I only got a couple taken with my borrowed camera because it was cold outside and the girls ran away from me LOL I didn't get to take any of Michael, Jason or all of us together :(







He's on the move

For the past few weeks Mr. Michael has been doing his army crawl. Rather than getting to the point of actually crawling he has gotten faster at the army crawl. It's really funny!

Today as we are going through our normal morning clean up after breakfast, I had put Michael in the pack-n-play in the kitchen. It fits great in front of the window. I am going about my business while Amber is working on Math when she asks me why I put Michael in the pack-n-play Standing Up. With a confused puzzled look on my face I said "What?".......I look over and that little boy pulled himself up by placing his hands on the mesh walls to eventually standing while holding the the top rail. He decided to talk to us for awhile while he chewed on it lol He has been trying it for awhile but I thought it was going to be awhile before that would actually happen. Now we have got to lower his mattress in the crib. I really wish I had a camera! :(

He is so smart! When he turned 7 months old and I would lay him down in the crib he would move to the side of the crib where I walk out the door and he pull the bumper down to watch me leave! He would do the same thing waiting for some one to come back. He is so alert. He will move doors out of his way to find something and now he crawls over to the window and moves the curtain to the side to try and look out the living room window! He's only turning 8 months! I am impressed because Amber and Alyssa never did that! The window is quite long and sits low to the floor so he will be able to see out if he gets on his knees. I wonder if he is going to walk early? Amber walked on her 1 st yr birthday and Alyssa would not walk until she was 14 months! I practiced everyday with her and never carried her around unless I had to and the child just would not walk......she got heavy man! I think Michael is going to take off sooner rather than later, he does not like to sit still very long. I could make the argument "That's a boy" but then what excuse would I be able to use with Amber when she was little and even now she doesn't like to sit still.........lol

I think I got my work cut out for me this time though lol

His two bottom little teeth are coming in really good now! He loves Mum Mum crackers, carrots and sweet potatoes! He finally ate some cereal with bananas this morning mixed with a little powder formula. He would only eat it before with my breast milk, but I can't seem to pump on demand ;p

I want to mention something before I keep forgetting. we went over to Rebekah's house a week or so ago, she made Alyssa a late birthday cake (OH MY WORD....IT WAS SOOO GOOD!) and while we are there I was holding Azi and Jason was holding Michael. Well....I am talking and reminding them of when we would go walking etc... and Michael offered his pacifier to Azi! It was soooo cute! It would have been yuk if Azi had been old enough to take it though LOL

Children are such a blessing from the Lord! Each one is so different. They make me smile everyday.

Early Trumpet Player

First, here is a random pic of Daddy and Michael!



And here is our little future Trumpet Player!





Princess Alyssa

Alyssa was invited to a Princess Tea Party which was ironic because Alyssa was wanting the exact same party for her birthday! I thought it was a good opportunity for me to get a few ideas as well. But unfortunately we could not throw her a party because of the car situation. But at least she got to go to one and have a lot of fun!..........I am seriously behind on pix and bloggin!
All the pix are in no particular order.....









So now I will bring you to the future with ..... Princess Alyssa's room. My child was so understanding about not being able to have a party she did not shed one tear and her attitude was perfect!! Here is what she did get so it really made her day, plus she got to decorate her own cake and had a blast!
Pix are in no particular order ;)


This is her bed, she sleeps on the top.


The Princess sleeps here.....Do not disturb! LOL


I can't believe my baby is six year old!

Michael video #2

He says dada at the end of this one with a smile!

Michael saying dada

Jason wants the world to know that his son said dada. I am sure I was confusing him along with Amber, and Alyssa trying to get him to say mama and dada lol
By the way....that would be the wash machine you hear in the background =p

Michael's Bumbo

Here are a few pix of Michael, and his Bumbo. I found one at a children's resale shop for only $20, when I showed it to Jason he said "oh they stole my idea". However, he didn't want to buy it! I told him how much they cost at the full price. Well...a couple weeks went by, we were in Burlington, and Amber picked one up to show us. Jason sat Michael in it, and this time he "just had to get it". So, we ended up paying $39 instead of $20...so, Maybe next time he will listen to me =) ?

By the way. We changed the settings for you all who do not have an account. You can now leave comments. Also, click on each picture if you would live a bigger view =)
Love ya's!
