Seven month old Kit

This gem of a baby is 7 months!
Baby sister is on the move. She is constantly on all fours and lunges forward over and over to get to anything she wants. Crawling is so close. She isn’t the strongest table food eater but is liking carrots and peas. She completely empty’s her stomach (violently) after bananas. We’ll try again in another month. She mouths everything and still has a love for her toes!!!! She stays busy on the floor discovering all the things and is pretty quiet during the day and screams/screeches here and there at night. She’s starting to make the G, N and D sounds. She loves bath time and getting all lotioned up. She can’t sleep through the night to save her life but pull her into bed with you and she’ll crash! She loves being sung to, played with and likes eating books.
 
 



We have loved taking the play station outside where she can be with the family and get that sunshine too.

Lane loves cuddling with baby sister.

Our days with the rock-n-play are coming to a close.
booo.
She is starting to sit up in it and it isn't going to be a safe place for her anymore.

Andie was playing "Santa and reindeer" with Kit.
Kit was the reindeer.
Kit is quite the accessory for her big sister.




 Oh, we just love this baby girl.
She is such a honey and pure delight.

Miles turns 9!

January 24, 2021
 
The boy turns NINE!
This is the first year I had to encourage Miles to wear the annual Birthday Crown!
Miles is still our reptile and stretchy toy loving kid.
But also, add reading Dogman and Captain Underpants to the list of LOVES.
He is an absolute gem to his baby sister.
He is so good with babies.
Actually, he is a pretty darn good brother to all of em.
He asks thought provoking questions about church and is really striving to be good.
He loves riding his quad, riding his bike, or going on a hike.
He loves legos, and is down to watch any movie we put on!
He still hasn't outgrown the excitement for all the little things.
(you know, a hand full of m&ms thrown in the popcorn for movie night-those little things) 
Since covid hit, he is willing to try new foods and has learned he loves fish and chicken thighs. 
He loves to go camping and has discovered he LOVES fishing!
Miles remembers to say his prayer and finally doesn't argue me when I suggest he wears jeans on a cold day!


 
 His request was a cake that looked like a cookie!

 
We tried to go up to the mountains for the weekend to celebrate, but everything is still closed with covid.
So we had the Tangs come over for a movie night.
we watched HOOK.
and the boys loved it!

Happy Birthday Miles Boy!
You are a special boy and we love you so much.
