What is it with Adam feeding this girl ice cream?? Its no wonder she's obsessed with it. Look at her cute toes wiggling. She cracks me up! Scroll down and watch her eating it on Feb. 1st. :)

Long time no see!

Oooops. Its been 3 months!! Lots has been going on here. Kids are growing, school is ending for the summer, hotter weather!

Preston is finishing up 5th grade. I can't believe my oldest is going to go to middle school in August. He is excited and I am nervous!

Maija is finishing 3rd grade. She is only about an inch shorter than Preston. She is definitely taking after me in the height department.

Maren has been attending preschool since March. That girl is in LOVE with preschool! Everyday she begs to go, but she only goes on Tuesdays and Thursdays. She will be going again in the fall.

Paige is 9 months old now. She sits but does not try to crawl yet. She is content just staying where she is (mommy is too!). She now has 2 teeth! She has a huge obsession with her Daddy. If he is in the room, no one else matters, not even Mommy with the food source! Her hair is growing more. I think its going to be the same color as Preston and Maren's hair. She is super happy all the time and loves attention.

Adam and I are doing good. We survived some work on our house (roof, skylights, new front door) and have tons more projects inside and out left to do to keep us busy this summer.

Happy 6 month Birthday Paige!!

Happy 6 months so my sweetest baby doll!!! This girl is so darn cute! She can sit by herself now. She is also quite noisy and her latest is to growl. We get quite a few funny looks in the stores when she is hidden in her carseat growling away. The older kids are all just in love with her and always ask to hold and play with her. My only complaint about this cutie is that she won't sleep in her bed (totally our own fault) but we are working on it. She has her official check up on Monday so I will update with her stats then.










She was wearing Maren's glasses. Cute eh?

Jumper update!

The poor girl jumped herself to sleep!!


The Jumping Fool!

Paige loves to jump! My arms ache from all the jumping. So, just like we did with Maren, we got this jumping fool a Jumperoo! This girl is all smiles and mommy's arms can now take a rest. (she is too short so she was jumping on a phonebook, and then a folded up sheet).




And for fun, here is Maren in her Jumperoo too!

Happy 9th Birthday Maija!!

Maija turned 9 on January 25th. Adam and I also celebrated our 13th wedding anniversary that day. She was our little anniversary present. We had another combined birthday party. We celebrated for Maija, myself, and our cousin Ellie!


Paige is 5 months old!

I can't believe she is so old now!! She is so smiley and loves to giggle. She just learned how to reach out and grab things and now everything goes straight to her mouth.







And just for a fun comparison... here is Preston at almost the same age.





Maren's new haircut

Happy Birthday to Maren!

Maren turned 3 on December 29th! We had a combined party with her cousins Cohen and Annie. Maren and Cohen share a birthday on the 29th and Annie's birthday is on the 31st. Maren is 3, Cohen is 9 and Annie is 13. We all went out to Spaghetti works for dinner and then had cake and presents after we ate.


Christmas 09

Christmas has come and gone already. I am in shock. We had a fun time with family. We had a Christmas Eve party at our house and snow kept falling and falling. Tons of food and games. Then time to open new jammies from Gramma and Grampa! Here's a slide show of some of our holiday.
