Kindergarten Beware.....

Took Colton to his Kindergarten well check yesterday.  He weighs 35.5 lbs and he is 38.5 inches tall.  He is in the 3rd percentile for height and 5th for weight.  He has followed that exact line from birth.  He was blessed with as my dad calls them "the passey stumps"  for legs.  He is built just like my dad.
He was so brave for the brutal shots He received 5!  Ouch! :(  He did really well though.  I can't believe he is going into Kindergarten.

Here are some fun things Kambria is doing....
She learned today how to bat at a toy... So cute when she does it she smiles so big and you know she thinks it is great!
She is blowing bubbles all the time
She loves her mommy and leans toward me if she sees me while someone else is holding her ;)
She loves her brothers and sister and just lights up when she sees them and they talk to her.

Finally!!!!

Preston finally lost his first tooth and soon after that the second fell out.  He was so excited.  The tooth fairy came and left him 1.00 for each tooth.  I told him he is going to make the Tooth Fairy broke if he keeps losing teeth at that rate.

Kambria 2 months










I took Kambria to her 2 month check and she is in the 75th percentile!  Yes you read that right!  I am used to Colton and Karleigh who were in th 3rd and 5th percentiles for their weight and height.  She seems so big to me and growing tooo fast!  It is so sad.
She is the sweetest baby.  She hardly ever cries.  When she does she just needs something and when her needs are met she is content.  She is adored by her brothers and sister and they can't get enough of her.

Ice cream,popsicles and Jello

Karleigh got her tonsils out Feb.1st.  Everything went perfect.  She also had her tubes removed from her ears and a small paper patch put over a hole in her eardrum.  She is doing great now.
We are all getting a little better sleep now that we don't hear Karleigh snoring like a bear and struggling to breath.

Funny Karleigh

Kambria Jane 4 Weeks old....



Kambria is 4 weeks old today!

I can't believe that a month has gone by!  She is the best baby!!!!! I kept holding my breath waiting for the hard times to hit and they just havn't hit.  Well not hard baby times yet.  We definatly had our share of the Rain storm around here!  The old adage that when it rains it pours sure visited us this last month.

I am all better from the kidney infection.  I feel great I feel that I am actually starting to get my routine back and feel that I can take on these four kids!

Chad is healing slowly but steadily it has been a huge blessing to have him home.  To be honest though I am ready for him to go back to work where ever that may be... He is not the type to be home and laid up.  He is a worker and likes to be busy and productive and after a month of not being able to do anything he is a bit stir crazy.  Which in turn rubs off on me and we both just get a bit cranky with each other.  I have loved having him home and to have the extra set of hands. Especially to hold little Kambria so I can take a shower everyday!  Any new mother out there knows how great that one indulgence is!!!!

Preston is loving school!  He is really excelling in his reading!  And is feeling much more confident and it has been so nice to see him shine!

Colton is loving preschool.  For the most part that is.  He is still Colton and tries to get out of going from time to time.  He is so smart.  He has made some friends but there is never enough friends for Colton. He always wants to be playing with someone.  I have to tell him that it is okay to play alone sometimes he does not agree!!!!

Karleigh is going to a music time for kids her age and is loving it!!!! I am loving having her involved in something.  She is just so bored at times at home.  I need to reach out and get her playing with kids around here she always asks for friends.  She loves sunbeams and being a big girl!  She lets me know whenever I tell her that she is my baby that she is NOT a baby she is  a BIG girl!!!  She loves playing hide and seek and duck duck goose. she loves playdough and moon dough. She loves to bake anything and everything as well we love her.

Kambria: is growing WAAAAY  to FAST!  We say we are done but she is growing way to fast and I may just want another.....I did not just say that!!!  Anyway.  She is the best tempered baby and she is just to cute! We all just love her to pieces!!
