5 Months....

In 1 hour and 6 minutes Natey will be 5 months old! It's so crazy how quickly (and slowly at the same time) it's gone by. He is getting so big, he's about 17 lbs now, and getting really tall. He is getting pretty good with his hands and grabs everything in reach and puts it straight in his mouth. We really have to watch him or else he gets things he not supposed to get. He and Johnny are really starting to like eachother, Natey smiles at Johnny all the time and laughs at him, and Johnny's started to share toys with Natey and try to calm him down when he's upset. It's so cute, I love when my kids get along. Here are some pics of our cute little guy.......
This pic reminds me of someone.....
He loved this toothbrush and wouldn't let go, this is Emily holding him when she came to visit us.

Family Home Evening...

Ok, I know I post a lot lately, but we've been busy busy and had a lot to share. Yesterday for family home evening we decided to carve the "HUGE" pumpkin. Johnny got so into it, he was a little backwards though and kept trying to put the seeds and everything back into the pumpkin. We asked him what he wanted to carve on it and showed him a bunch of jack-o-lantern pictures, but he said over and over that he wanted to carve a ghost. So, I found a picture online and did my best to copy it and draw it on the pumpkin, the picture looked better though.
We had a hard time getting the top of because the pumpkin was so big.
Johnny wouldn't stand back while Davie got the pumpkin ready.
Finally, he got to use the big spoon and scoop seeds out.
This was the best smile I could get out of him.

4 Months Old!

I forgot to post about Nathan. He had his 4 month check up the other day. It went really well, he is 15 lb 4 oz. 27 inches long, and I can't remember the exact circumference of his head. His measurements put him in a very random percentile overall. His weight is exactly in the 50%, length 95%, and head 3%. Pretty unbalanced, haha. But, he looks normal to me, the doctor says he's not worried about his head though, because that's exactly how Johnny was and how their dad is. Overall he's growing well and very healthy!

Coloring/ Happy 100th!!!

Sorry, lots to catch up on lately. So, Johnny has never been one to color much. He usually draws one line and runs off to do something more interesting. However, in the last couple weeks he's decided that he loves it! I am also loving this, it's something quiet he can do when I need some peace.

Johnny's three favorite things right now are airplanes, the "trash guy", and pumpkins. After playing with his pumpkin yesterday he decided to color these things with chalk, he was so proud when he finished and showed me his pictures and explained what they were.....

This is the airplane...
This is the "trash guy"....
And this is him drawing a pumpkin, I forgot to get a picture when he finished.
I love his cute little imagination and that he's starting to settle down and take time to be creative, it's so cute!

P.S. This is my 100th post! I can't believe I have this many! These balloon pictures are in celebration!

The "HUGE" Pumpkin

This week has been crazy busy, everyday so far. One of the fun things we did was on tuesday. Davie's mom and sister Kaycie came up and visited with us for the day. Johnny had so much fun showing off, he pulled Kaycie all over the place with him and made her play with all his toys, color outside with chalk, and she even got a taste of "Mickey Mouse Clubhouse".

The highlight of the visit, for Johnny, was when GG and Kaycie brought a "HUGE" pumpkin out of the car for him. He has literally been walking around since Tuesday saying "HUGE pumpkin" over and over again, and telling and showing everyone he sees about it. He told our next door neighbor, this young guy on the USU football team, and was just yelling it over and over at him and telling him to "come hold HUGE pumpkin". Poor guy couldn't go inside his house, lol. It had been cute watching him play with the pumpkin and try to pick it up. Here are some fun pictures of him yesterday....

He was talking to our neighbor, again, when I took this picture.


He keeps trying to pick it up, I guess this is his new technique.

I love this picture, sorry to brag, but I think Johnny has the cutest eyes in the world.

Again, trying to pick it up, he won't stop trying.

Telling our neighbor, again, as he's walking to his car.
