Precious Moments

I never want to forget how sweet these two are.  At the young age of 7 McKenzie knows just what to do to calm down Aaron and help him fall asleep.

Brothers

Aaron is getting so big, pretty soon he will be able to hold Mason:

McKenzie is 7

This sweet girl turned 7 today:

 To celebrate, she requested a cake pop cake and Mexican food for lunch. 

McKenzie loves babies (real and toy), bunnies and eating anything chocolate.

She loves holding Aaron, changing his diaper, and giving him his binky when he is crying.

She gets straight A's in school.

She is a perfectionist.

 Her perfectionism is good and bad.  Good because her side of the bedroom is immaculate, she does every chore without being asked, and always takes out the garbage or cleans up a spill if she notices it needs to be done.  

Her perfectionism gets her into trouble because if she spells a word wrong, she will cry and be upset with herself.  If she could, she would live the Mosaic law: "an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth" is how this girl rolls.  If you wrong her, you better watch your back.

Sweet Aaron

This kid sure has added a lot of stress to my life, but I wouldn't change him for anything.

Mason

One of the best things about being a stay at home mom, is getting to be with this kid all day long.  I love his comments/questions and especially his outfits:

This is why we live in Florida...

70 degrees outside, and the kids got out of school early.  How could we not go to the beach today?

 The girls couldn't have been happier:

 The boys were lovn' life:

Aaron 3 Months

Could you be any more adorable?  Aaron, you are like a new baby.  You are happy and smile all the time.  You used to always be in pain with your reflux and lactose intolerance, so you were a screamer.  With your medicine and your moms lactose free diet you have showed us your happy sweet side.  You love to be held.  You can focus on objects.  You have a 6th sense.  You can tell when I enter the room.  If you are crying and I walk in the room you stop crying, and do something that is hard to describe, it is obvious you know the help you were seeking is coming.  You are partial to your binky, you much prefer to suck on your hands.  Your dark hair is slowly starting to fall out, it breaks my heart.  I love that you had your dad's dark brown hair when you were born.  He is a good man and I enjoyed being reminded of him every time I held you.  You like me mostly for my milk, you are a much better baby when anyone besides me holds you.  You now sleep in a pack'n'play in the laundry room.  You love your swing and being wrapped up super tight in your blanket to sleep.
