Jack is 5 Months Old...

Handsome Jack is 5 months old.  He is still such a sweet boy and just really rolls with whatever cards he is dealt.  Still a really good sleeper & eater too!  I think Jack has a stomach like his Daddy because he eats whatever Mommy gives him.  Even sweet peas, without hesitation!  :-)  Both girls would have NOTHING to do with the sweet peas.  I think he has his Daddy's metabolism too.  This boy can EAT!  We have moved up to the 2nd stage of food - the bigger jar of baby food - he eats TWO of them for lunch & dinner and one jar with some cereal for breakfast, plus he is still nursing every 2 1/2 - 3 hours!  Look at his long skinny legs - so cute.  Jack has rolled over from tummy to back & back to tummy.  He is reaching out for things he wants - like Mommy when he is hungry.  Just melts your heart.  His sisters still make his laugh & laugh.  They had him giggling to hard the other day, I had to tell them to stop for a minute so he could catch his breath.  Every day we thank God for blessing us with three beautiful sweet children.  I always say God put in overtime when he created our children.  :-)

Morgaine's 3 year Birthday

Ms. Merry Morgaine is 3 years old!!!  We did not have a party this year for Morgaine.  Never could decide on what to do, so this year Mommy, Daddy & Jack are going to the zoo in place of a party. 

Morgaine had an awesome birthday.  She played & played & played all day long with the kids in the neighborhood.  The older kids had a half day of school, so they were home shortly before lunch.  They went outside & played until almost 7pm!  No nap for Morgaine on her birthday.  By the time she came inside for the night - she was beat!  But had a lot of fun!  She is getting so good riding her "big wheel", she really gets to moving pretty fast on it.  Morgaine has not figured out how to use the brakes or stop it yet, so she just runs into the curb to stop - it is so cute.  We have to get video of her riding her big wheel. 

Of course Morgaine had to have a Princess cake.  It was so huge that we shared with some of the other Princesses in the neighborhood.  All in all I would say Morgaine had a great birthday.

Morgaine & Ryann Updates

Here are some pictures of the girls we had taken the beginning of March.  Ryann is doing so well at school, maintaining straight A's.  She is also having so much fun playing softball again.  Ryann has also obtained her orange belt in Tae Kwon Do.  Morgaine is really coming into her own, she is going to be the one that gives us a run for our money.  She is such a sweet girl, but very awry.  Morgaine's school had a Rodeo day the end of February.  They brought in pony's for the children to ride and had a few other animals for them to pet.  We thought for sure that Morgaine would love riding a horse, because that is all she talks about - how she is going to ride a horse one day.  Well when the time came, she got a lot scared.  :-)  She did it, but with a death grip on me. A few weeks later we took a trip to KC for a visit & to have Jack baptized.  It was good to see everyone, time always goes by so fast. 

Jack is 4 Months Old...

Well this is the month Jack starts solids.  He LOVES the rice cereal and has graduated to the fruits and vegetables.  Jack doesn't seem to be much of a picky eater; he may be like his Daddy and eat whatever Mommy gives him.  Can't say that for his sisters.  Jack has found his voice and it is LOUD.  I guess he figures that with all of the screaming going on from his sisters that his voice has to be loud to be heard, he is probably right.  He loves to talk and talk.  It is pretty cute.  Jack is such a good baby boy, only cries when he is hungry or tired.  He really just goes with the flow.  Dan and I are so blessed to have to wonderful children!  Jack was baptized on March 13th with his cousins Brooklynn and Will.  It was such a special day.
