Our Family

Welcome to my blog!

Every day is a new adventure, and though this blog won't capture it all at least you might get a glimpse of our crazy life...

Quotes


A baby will make love stronger, days shorter, nights longer, bankroll smaller, home happier, clothes shabbier, the past forgotten, and the future worth living for
Unknown



Babies are a link between angels and man.
Unknown



Children are a handful sometimes, A heartfull all the time.
Unknown



Loving a baby is a circular business, a kind of feedback loop. The more you give the more you get and the more you get the more you feel like giving.
Penelope Leach



While we try to teach our children all about life, Our children teach us what life is all about.
Angela Schwindt



Boy, n.: a noise with dirt on it.
Not your average dictionary



Children are the living messages we send to a time we will not see.
John W. Whitehead


You don't really understand human nature unless you know why a child on a merry-go-round will wave at his parents every time around - and why his parents will always wave back.

My Son

For some reason when I pictured having Jax I figured he would be just like Peyton. I was soo wrong. He definately has his own personality. He's a mommy's boy, which I love. He loves to eat. At his 4 month apointment the other day he weighed over 17.5lbs and was in the 90th percentile of babies his age. We just started feeding him gerber vegetables. So far sweet potatoes are his favorite. He's an excellent sleeper and sleeps through the night on most nights. He loves watching his sister play and tries soo hard to get up and go with her. He already shows jealousy when she's playing with his things. He freaks out if he hears us having any kind of fun without him. He's pretty close to sitting up alone and is soo much more mobile than Peyton was at 4 months. He gets soo concerned if anyone is crying. He likes to get a good grip on your hair and yank. You can tell he thinks it's pretty funny. He stops crying everytime I start to sing Twinkle twinkle little star, but no other song has that effect. I swear both my kids think I have this amazing voice when in reality singing is definately not one of my talents. He LOVES taking baths and would probably go all day in nothing but a diaper if I let him. I think it's easier for him to move, but whatever it is he seems to love being without clothes. His voice strains when he gets too excited and he has the cutest little laugh. When he wakes up in the morning he just starts talking then when I go to get him he is all smiles. He loves laying with daddy watching "manly shows" on tv.


He takes just a little while to warm up to people, but once he does it's totally worth it. God has blessed me soo much with the two most beautiful children. I used to tell Derek I didn't care how many children we had as long as we had at least one girl and one boy. I was blessed with that right off the bat. I am very lucky to be at home with them right now, be able to see them grow and be a big part of teaching them. I would do anything for them and I will love them always.
