Random Pictures

I had some pictures on my camera and thought I'd post some of them. I've been terrible at taking pictures of Oliver. I was really good at taking pictures of the twins and Riley when they were little.

Oliver is 6 weeks old in these pictures. He's growing like a weed. I'm trying to soak it all in because he will probably be our last.


 Ethan lost his second tooth on the bottom. He's losing them fast! Mia and Riley still haven't lost any teeth.

Ethan came out with these overalls on. I didn't have the heart to tell him that they were backwards. Made me laugh.


I think he is going to have blue eyes. That'll make 3 out of my 4 kids with blonde hair and blue eyes. I never, in a million years, thought I'd have blonde babies.

 He's got the prettiest skin. It's a milky-white color. Poor boy is going to sizzle in the sun though.

Oliver is two months old in these pictures. He's still getting up twice during the night to nurse. It's usually around 1am and 5 am. Mike gets our older kids up for school in the morning, so I can sleep in a little.


I caught him smiling. I love his dimples. They're so cute. The bigger the smile, the deeper they get.

Mini Photo Shoot

 Riley wanted to snap some pictures with me. I usually don't like my picture taken, but how could I resist?






 He's trying to nurse on my face.

Trip to Watertown


 The kids and I went to visit my parents. We had a nice long weekend in Watertown. It's nice having some extra hands to help with the kids. Oliver is two months old now! He's smiling quite a bit and is still a big momma's boy.

 He still is nursing well but will also take a bottle. I go back to work in a month. My mom and Mike's mom are going to take turns watching him for the next month until he can go to daycare. We are going to go to our same daycare provider we've been going to for the last couple of year. She'll take Oliver part-time which is nice. She had a baby, so she wants to take some extra time off.









Ethan likes to get into Uncle Nate's things and try them on. He found one of his old hats and wanted me to take some pictures of him.







Nate gave him some winter boots to try on.

 We went and visited my Grandma. She's 92 years old and still lives by herself. She's doing really well.

 Our dog, Elsa, likes to lick. I'll let her lick Oliver a couple of times to get it out of her system. He usually smiles when she does it.

Christmas Pageant

The kids were in a Christmas pageant a few weeks ago. It was by accident too. Once a month, we go to church and the kids have catechism. Mike and I didn't read that that Wednesday was cancelled and instead, there was a Christmas pageant. We showed up for class and saw the kids dressed like angels, shepherds, and animals. Mike and I were so confused. The organizer of the event came over and asked if the kids wanted to join in. They ended up being sheep. It was so funny and we all laughed!



 Don't they make the cutest sheep?




They sang some Christmas songs, which our kids did not know the words to. Oh well. They just sat there and looked cute.
