3 Months

This handsome boy is now 3 Months old:

He can:
laugh
hold his head up, and have good control of it
has started spitting up a lot
Eats in 10 minutes
Loves the super tight burrito wrap to go to sleep.
Loves his binky, when his binky falls out he sticks his middle 3 fingers in his mouth and sucks on them.
The cutiest thing he does is when someone walks up to him. He looks at them and it takes him a couple seconds to focus and make eye contact. As soon as he makes eye contact he flashes the most adorable, toothless, chubby cheek smile then laughs. It is so sweet and genuine it could even melt the grinches heart.
He is the most mellow and happy kid.
He wears size 3-6 month clothes.
Size 2 diapers during day and size 3 at night.

Last Disney World Post

Our last day at Magic Kingdom was the best day of the trip. Not only were we in the most magical place in the U.S, but we got to spend it with 2 of our favorite families from Dental School. Here we were after the parade:

It was so fun to spend the day catching up. Parker and Enzo were too cute, they walked all over the park holding hands. It melted my heart to know that even my kids love and miss the amazing friends we made while Anthony was in dental school:

This trip was perfect. The weather, the crowds, the price, the friends, the food were all perfect. We had a blast and can't wait to go again.

Tough Day

You know those times when your kids do something you didn't know they could do and it makes you feel so proud? Today I had a couple moments with the complete opposite feeling. Although all my kids are great some bad choices were made today.

Bad choice #1 Accidentally dropping Anthony's magazines in the toilet that was full of things that only belong in the toilet. Anthony was not to happy when he reached for a magazine and found wet magazines with brown streaks on them.

Bad choice #2: Going #2 in my backyard. The child who did this will remain nameless.

Parker's new do

Parker walked out of the bathroom with a mohawk, and told me this his how he likes his hair done now. I love that he has his own style. He says he wants to grow it really long.

New Trick

Mason can now laugh, it is adorable:

I wish I could be this cute just lounging around in my p.j.'s:

Breakfast with Pluto

Kenzie's one request while at Disney was to eat breakfast with Pluto. I was a little surprised that of all the princesses and characters at Disney Kenzie choose Pluto, but I promised as long as we don't have to eat dog food we will eat with him.
Breakfast was even better because we got to eat with our good friends from Dental School.
Too bad Kenzie fell of her chair right before Pluto came to the table so she was crying for her picture.

Luckily Mickey came by and made her feel better:The weather for our trip was amazing, we spent one night swimming outside. Did I mention it is Feburary:) We are lovn' Florida.

It was great to have the Gardner's with us not only for the good company, but so we could swap kids and ride on fun rides:

Epcot

The kids favorite part of Epcot was meeting all these characters with only a 10 minute wait:

The other highlights were the Nemo ride, talking to Crush (the funny turtle on Nemo) and the Viking ride in Holland.
With 4 kids and 3 days of walking, our double stroller was no longer good enough. Kenzie & Kaitlynn had spent the whole day fighting over who got to share the double stroller with Mason. So my hightlight of the day was the saint who just handed me this umbrella stroller because they were going home and no longer needed it.

Happy Valentine's Day

Happy Valentine's Day. We love you and miss you.

Mason 2 Months

I figure I better post Mason's 2 months stats before he turns 3 months. Mason at 2 months:
Weight: 13.7 lbs
Height: 23.5 inches
He is full of smiles and loves to coo and babble.
The longest he has slept at night is 6 hours. (I am not complaining, but I now understand the bags under my eyes. For the last 2 months the longest I have ever slept at 1 time is probably 5 hours because I never fall asleep right after he does).
I love his fat rolls, spiking his hair, his wonderful hugs and the way he melts my heart every time he looks at me and smiles. He is a joy.

SeaWorld

We spent last week in Orlando playing hard. SeaWorld was our first stop.

While there Anthony taught the kids a thing or two about playing games:

All the kids loved the rides. Isn't Kaitlynn too cute? She had no fear, and was quite mad about some of the height requirements:

I loved to watch Anthony squeeze onto the train with the kids:

Cute kids, can you find me?

The shows were so good:

My favorite part was feeding the dolphins. For the first time in my life I was able to touch one. I was in heaven:

One day I am going to swim with these amazing animals, but for now feeding them was good enough:
