Some pictures!

It was my birthday yesterday and it was really sweet, Jeff and the girls baked me a cake but didn't have time to ice it before the girls had to go to bed on Monday so me and the girls iced it and decorated it with sprinkles. They had so much fun!
I went on Kayla's first field trip yesterday with her! It was at Colasanti's Tropical Gardens and she had so much fun! They did an animal show first and she held a huge snake! I was so proud of her! She wasn't even afraid at all! Then they did pumpkin painting. It was so fun to see her in her element of school and with her friends. I hope to go on their other school trips. Here's some pics!

Kayla holding the snake, there were about 10 kids and she was at the head end!
Another pic!

Zachary's 6 month portraits

Well, here's the cute 6 month pictures we just got done of Zachary. They turned out so good. It was almost too hard to choose the portraits, again! He was such a happy boy for them, the only thing that sucks is that we didn't get a good shot of his teeth.

Whoa, long time no post!

I came on here to look and realized that it's been 3 months since my last post!! Sorry! Life has just been busy!


New things since posting last, Kayla started JK! She loves it! She goes every Monday, Wednesday and every other Friday. We just have her in regular school but are looking into doing Christian school in a few years, too expensive right now. She's having so much fun, and comes home with lots of stories every time she goes. She says she has a Hannah and an Emma in her class and Emma is her best friend! (For those of you who don't know, my sister has an Emma and Hannah!)

Juliana is growing up, it seems like she can say something new everyday! She is starting to show how smart she is too. She'll remember things that I don't even remember, just like Kayla does. But then again, I don't have much of a memory, LOL! She's 2 1/2 and just tiny! Her brother is almost the same weight as her!

Zachary has done lots of new things. He crawls around now and can sit up pretty good. He's got 2 teeth on the bottom and 1 coming in on the top. He's really starting to get his own personality, and it's funny! He likes to sit there and screech all the time! He'll be 7 months old next Saturday! I took him for his 6 month check up and he was 23lbs 7 1/2oz! Juliana is only 26lbs! I'm sure by now he's 24. He's got a cold (and has for about 3 weeks) so he's not sleeping too good right now.

We went away on vacation for a week in August near Peterborough to a cottage. It was a crazy week, with 3 kids! Jeff did get lots of fishing in and the girls had fun in the sand. Next year will be tons easier since Zach will be older.

Jeff and I celebrated our 6th anniversary on the 5th, so we went to Niagara Falls for the weekend. That was wonderful! Although we did too much sightseeing so what was supposed to be a relaxing weekend away from the kids, ended up being exhausting!!!!

Here's some pics. I'll try to upload a bunch more over the next few days so you can see how much my little munchkins are growing! (They aren't going to be in any specific order)

That should be good for now! LOL! We took Zachary for his 6 month portraits a couple of weeks ago so once we get them back I'll post them too. Hope you enjoyed!

Zachary rolled over!

"

Well, it looks like life just got a little bit harder! Zachary is rolling over now (other than the accidental times he did it when he was just a few weeks old). Here's a really cute video of it, and you can hear his sisters cheering him on!



He's getting so big, already almost 19lbs, and he'll be 4 months old next Friday. I take him for his shots and check up next week so I'm curious to see how much he's grown these past 2 months. He's really starting to talk a lot, especially to the baby on the wipes box, lol! I can't wait to start pablum with him! That's always so much fun seeing babies react to the new taste and texture of food!

We went for our first swim of the season and Zachary's first swim on Canada Day. Lots of fun! Here's some pics. Zachary loved the water, he almost fell asleep on my shoulder!



And here's some pics of a hat that daddy bought him at Bass Pro! It says "My First Fishing Hat"

Video of Zachary giggling

I can't believe that my little man is 3 months old today! I really can't believe how fast these past 3 months have gone. It seems like it was just yesterday that I was waiting for the phone call from the hospital. He is such a good baby, always so happy. He smiles and coos at anything and is such a sweet little boy. I took this video of him giggling last night. He gave his first real giggle to Daddy about a week ago but then started some for me last night. Too sweet! And it's really cute cause all of a sudden he notices the camera and is like "hey, what are you doing?"



Sunday was Jeff's first Father's Day with his little boy! It was a nice day, we let him sleep in and then made him bacon and eggs for breakfast. Yum! Here's some pics.

The girls waiting to go wake daddy up!

Zachary had his first bath in the big bath tub the other day! He was just getting way too long for the baby bath tub, he would always kick the water all over the place. He wasn't too sure of it at first but then he realized that he could kick his feet and splash and then he started having fun! I can't wait until I get to put all 3 together! That will be cute!

Shocked by the flash!

Here's some other misc. pics.

First time in his exersaucer!

Kayla's 4 year portraits!

I keep meaning to post these! We got her 4 year portraits back and they turned out awesome! They look a little dark but I scanned them in, they look better in person.
