Rebecca is 4 months old!!


The last four months have flown by since Rebecca was born. She has been such a wonderful addition to our family. I must admit that she is a great baby. This may make some jealous but she sleeps 8-9 hours at night in her own room, naps for 2 hours or more at a time several times a day, falls asleep on her own, only cries when she needs a diaper change or is hungry, loves to talk (especially to her lady bug bedding), and smiles all the time.

At her 4 month check up she weighed 13lbs and is 25in long. We have been able to take her completely off of her acid reflux medicine...she spits up from time to time and it will give her an upset tummy but it is so rare that there was no need to keep her on the medicine. She is developmentally excelling! Overall she is a healthy, happy baby!!

She did catch a little cold from Jason(he was sick over Thanksgiving) but it is nothing serious and she is already feeling much better only after 3 days. Here she is at 4 months old!

Who knew you could wear a bikini in 10degree weather?? ;-)

Thanksgiving!


We have so much to be thankful for including; family, friends, good health, our jobs, house, vehicles, food, and the list goes on and on!! We started Thanksgiving with cinnimon rolls and hot chocolate for breakfast. We told the boys a little about Thanksgiving and then we went around the table saying what we are each thankful for the most. Ryan named all of his family members, including extended family, because "he loves all of his family". Dylan said a few family members names and then told us he was most thankful for "his bike because it goes faster and faster and it is lots of fun!!".

We enjoyed Thanksgiving dinner with Jason's family at Aunt June and Uncle Howard's house in Bloomfield. It was a beautiful day so the boys spent most of our time there playing in the back yard. Rebecca got a lot of attention from all of our family there! It was great to spend the day with them all.

After dinner and time with the family we headed home but stopped to each get a movie first. Once home we spent the remainder of the night enjoying a family movie night. With popcorn and each others company while watching movies, it was a wonderful end to a great day!!

A few of Rebecca's Firsts...

Rebecca (or Becca as we like to call her) is growing more and more each day! It is always incredible to watch a baby grow so quickly but it is also a little sad because you want to cherish each moment and keep them small forever. However since you can't keep them a newborn forever I thought I would share some of Rebecca's recent firsts along with a couple adorable pictures of her!

Here is she sleeping in her own room for the first time. She naps in her crib all the time and normally sleeps in the bassinet in our bedroom at night however recently she has begun sleeping for 8 hours at night so I decided it was time to put her in her own room.


She is sitting in her bumbo seat for the first time here! She loves to sit up and watch what is going on so this seat is perfect for her! She looks very serious here because she is watching Jason type on her computer which is another one of her favorite things!!


This is an adorable outfit Rebecca got from her Aunt Natasha and Uncle Larry! I think she looks so darn cute in this outfit so I had to take a few pictures!

Silly Boys!

While eating dinner a couple of nights ago Ryan decided he and Dylan should both eat one end of a noodle, need I say more......

1st Snow! In October?!?

Yep, that's right...we got our first snow in October this year. It was a good snow that gave us almost 6 inches. Didn't cancel school but I think that is because it caught everyone off gaurd. Here are some pictures of the boys playing in the snow. I know they are going to have a blast this winter with the snow!!
