Lost another one

Lost our first tooth

You can't tell from the picture, but we have lost our first tooth.  William's bottom two permenant teeth actually came in a few months ago but they came in behind his baby tooth.  A few weeks ago though his baby teeth started wiggling so each night we would try and pull it out.  Tonight though it finally popped out.  Ryan and I almost lost our lunch but kept it together for William's sake :). 

 

 

After we put the kids in bed tonight one of us had to run to the store and buy a pack of gum so that the "tooth fairy" could visit.  Crazy that we didn't have any paper money in the whole house. 

Winter Wonderland

We have now been home for three days due to snow and ice and there is a good chance that we might be home tomorrow too!   Here are a few pics of our winter fun from today. 

Vehicle Parade

William's school has been studying transportation this week so they celebrated Friday with a vehicle parade. Each child was asked to bring a "unique" vehicle made out of a cardboard box.  It was really cool to see all the different vehicles that the kids made. 

There are 130 kindergarteners in Willam's school so I won't put all the pictures on here, but I will share some of the more unique vehicles.

   

  

 Here is Williams vehicle.  It is a recycling truck.  It has all the parts including a door on the back that opens to put the "trash" in. 

Daddy was able to come see the parade too!  We are so blessed that both Ryan and I can both tweek our schedule when need be to be at events like this. 

 





Tea Party

We had a great time today having a tea party! Just had to share some photos.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Fall Fun

 

Spent the afternoon carving pumpkins in the backyard.

 

Caleb didn't carve a pumpkin, but he did hang out and watch.

 

The kids got to pick their face cutouts.  Why yes Adalynn did ask for a sad face.

What a handsome young man!

 

 We also got to get dressed up for "Oak"toberfest at William's school

 

No carnival is complete without a cupcake!

After all the fun we still came home for more.  We got to eat dinner in the living (maybe only the third time ever) and watch the tech game. 

 

It was a great day!

5 Months old

This sweet precious boy is so absolutely amazing.  I am totally in love with him.  I can't believe he is already 5 months old. It makes me sad to see him growing up so quickly.

We are still in cloth diapers and actually it isn't nearly as bad as we had thought.  He sure looks cute in them too!

Here is the picture with his giraffe for comparison when he was born.  This is also the same chair that we used to take pictures for William and Adalynn in so someday when I get a moment to breath (like in ten years) maybe we can get those pictures out of the bottom of the closet and compare. 

Caleb is finally pushing up while on his tummy.  He isn't rolling over or scooting yet, but why would he need to when he has tons to see all around him with two big siblings and someone to bring him anything he wants!   Also mom isn't really too interested in growing up any faster than he has to.  

 Seriously?  Isn't this just precious?
