Ryan is a month old

Can you believe it! One month has already gone by? At Ryan's one month doctors appointment, he was already 9.13 lbs and 21 1/4 inches!! Crazy as he started out at 6.15 lbs and 18 1/2 inches! He is HUGE! He is a very good baby! He might have a bit of reflux but other than that is just a happy baby! We are having fun! I know his eyes will probably change colors but they are such a pretty blue now! And he still has his cool mohawk!

Oh, my kids...

First of all, Benjamin has figured out how to have some fun at home - CLIMBING THE WALLS!!! He thinks he's Spider Man!





And, every time I get the camera out, he makes funny faces! My guess, he's trying to get the attention from you-know-who ... Baby Ryan!

Having said that, he is totally in love with Ryan though. He dotes on him and is sooo proud that HE named him!

He also is proud to call himself the baby police - telling everyone that they have to wash their hands before the hold Ryan and if they are sick "get away"!

My sweet girl Elizabeth has her new "cheeeeeeeeeeze" face when the camera comes out. It's too cute though!

And Ryan has become more alert and holds his head up super well for only 3 weeks old! He is really a great baby. Eats, sleeps and poops! Oh and check out his mohawk! He was born with it and it is still there! He has a seriously cute mohawk!

Jordan wouldn't hold him yet! He says he's too little! He said next weekend he will!

Oh, my life is so good! These kiddos and my awesome husband ROCK!

Please say a prayer for our friends Rick and Mary who lost their son in a car accident this past weekend. It is very sad and I thank God every day for my family but these past few days have really made me make sure that I truely pay attention to the little things that make me smile. You just never know...

Blessings to all.

Sleep deprived

Yes, I really am still here! I am a bit sleep deprived and need to download pictures. Ryan is a great baby really! Ellie got a cold and is not happy right now. So she is up on the off hours of the night that Ryan is not. Which means I am getting about 45 minutes at a time of shut eye! Yikes! And no, my kids don't take naps! Which is AWFUL!

SO I will be back later to try to get some new pics here!!

Pictures!

Ok, here are a few pics of the new Little Man!!

And some of Benjamin on his 1st day of school!
