Random September Pictures

Here is our happy little boy back when he was 3 months old.

He does like his jumperoo.

Mitchell gets quite bored some days so I bought his some puzzles to keep him occupied.

As you can see these were done in a matter of a week or so. So it didn't keep him busy for long.

Here are our cute kids. Brigham is 3 months old and Savannah is 3 years old.

Here is Savannah and Liam having breakfast. They love having tables and chairs their size.

Aunt Wendy came for a visit this month too. Here are Savannah and Wendy making zucchini bread.

Savannah's Birthday - September

This is Savannah's first birthday cake for this year. She got to celebrate her birthday twice - once with Kristie's Parents and then again with Mitch's family.

Here is her second cake. Does it look familiar? Well she wanted an Ariel cake again and then a week or two before her birthday she decided she wanted Cinderella. Well there were no more cake pans at the stores nearby so I improvised.

Here she is blowing out her candles. Can I just tell you she loves birthdays. It doesn't matter if it is hers or not.

It was pretty warm on her birthday this year so as you can see I let her get out the pool one last time.

Savannah was really good at opening presents this year. She didn't try to play with each one as she opened them this time, she just ripped into each one and then she was off to the next one.

August

Well we started off the month with Brigham's 2 month checkup. I don't know if he looks like a big boy in this picture, but after his doctor's appointment he is officially a big boy. The doctor told me to start lifting weights now. He weighed in at 16.15 pounds which puts him in the 99.5% for his age and he was 25.25 inches tall which puts him in the 98% for his height. And I thought his sister was big when she was a baby!

We officially got a smile on camera. Isn't he cute? The outfit he is in is 6-9 months. It isn't any too big for him!

I just love those eyes!

Can you tell Savannah loves her brother.

Who new that the best toy in the world was a box. This is a cardboard box from our dishwasher last year. It has been Savannah and Liam's favorite.

Here is Savannah kind of enjoying her pool...

And the pool next door. If you can see here on the right she is drinking from one of the sprinklers on the pool. This is our summer fun each week lately. We have a few great kids next door to play with.

Precious Moments

There is nothing like being so tired wishing you little baby would just go to sleep and then you look and him and he gives you a big smile. You just can't help but smile back and talk to him. Brigham smiled for the first time last Friday night. It is amazing how the little things make such a difference.

We are alive!!!!

So it has been awhile since we have posted anything. We'll just say when I have 5 minutes for myself posting pictures hasn't been at the top of the list. Sorry to those who have been waiting for more pictures. I now have a new calling. Instead of RS Secretary I am now the RS Enrichment Counselor. So now I have more to do and especially more meetings. Yay. It will be fun though. My brain has now finally started functioning again so I think maybe I will be able to get things accomplished. So here are a few pictures from June and July.

Here is Brigham about 3 days old.

You can't see it very well but Savannah is posing with her shiner on her eyebrow.

Savannah tucked her carebear into Brigham's bed and then she fell asleep. So Cute.

4th of July outfits

Brigham chillin with his dad. He is about 10 days old here.

We were on our way to Mitch's parents house for the 4th and Savannah fell asleep with her foot up on her brother's car seat. You would think it was a long trip or something instead of 30 minutes.

Savannah got a new bed over the 4th weekend. She loves it and is sleeping much better.

Cute kid in a cute outfit.

Savannah and Brigham. She loves her little brother. He is about a month old here and already weighs over 13 lbs! So he isn't so little.

He's here!!!

On Tuesday morning at about 1 AM Kristie went into labor and later that morning we had a little boy. Kristie and Brigham were pleased as punch to be done with the whole labor thing by 7 AM and all they had to do for the rest of the day was relax and recuperate. Sleep would have been nice but that just doesn't happen for a new mother.
Brigham was 8 lbs and 13 oz as well as 20 inches long and had a good head of black hair. Mom was really happy about the hair and Dad was just happy.
It took Savannah a little while to warm up to the hospital and wasn't quite sure what to think of Mom in the bed with a tube in her arm. She took her brother pretty quickly and wanted to hold him all by herself for the rest of the next day.
She even sported her newest favorite shirt to let everyone know the good news. And don't mess with her bro because she'll come get you.
We are grateful everyone is doing well and the Lord has blessed our home with a new baby boy.

Still Pregnant

Here I am at 40 weeks. We are 1 day overdue. I have a doctors appointment today and maybe we will find out more. So we are still pregnant:( Hopefully our next post will be of our baby.
