Update...

Spring Break starts tomorrow. I almost don't want it to start because I don't want it to end...So much is going on here. Macy is almost 6 months old. She is getting so big. She rolls both ways now. She started right about at 5 months. She rolls much faster from tummy to back. She isn't a big fan of being on her tummy. We started trying foods. We started with rice cereal, then moved to oatmeal and then tried carrots. She doesn't really like to eat much of anything. Whenever we try she just clenches those lips. I guess I will just nurse her until she is 6. We gave her a little hair cut. She was sporting the look of someone that was going through chemo ( no offense anyone). She had three different spots where her hair was 5 inches long and then other spots where it is just a quarter of an inch...She looks so much better now. Colton is well, Colton. He is a riot. He is the epitome of a naughty little boy and I love it. He is starting to master the technique of telling me (in Coltonspeak of course) to look at something and then he turns around and does something naughty. He still LOVES tools and everything that has to do with them. If it has a switch, button, knob,etc...he is obsessed. The tool bench we got him for Christmas was maybe the best toy for value ever spent. He still doesn't have the language skills that we would hope. I know everyone says that "he is a boy" but it still makes us worry a bit. When I say worry, I guess worst case he may need some help with speech therapy or something. We will ask his pediatrician. Some of my favorite mispronounced words by "the buddy"
Oompa Doo (What he says when he wants to watch Willy Wonka
Ben -bread
Eecy - Macy
Aegan - Raegan
Tooahs - tools
And then there is Ragaen. She is registering for Kindergarten on Monday. Wow, this is so exciting, yet so depressing. I can't believe my first "baby" is going off to school next year. I also can't believe that in the last five years I have had 3 babies, and lived in two houses and gotten married been to Mexico, Punta Cana, Oh Vey, what will the next five years bring? She is growing up to be such a nice little girl. I never thought nice would be used to describe Raegan. Don't get me wrong. She still has her Raeganisms. She can't be VERY standoffish...She doesn't talk when SHE doesn't want to. In fact, she doesn't do anything when she doesn't want to. Last night she had two of her favorite friends over and they got along so well. There were no little squabbles or anything. I can't wait to see how she grows up, just not too fast:(

Milestones


Macy started giggling today. It is so adorable. She is such a smiley little girl. She is by far the happiest of the three. I think she is very close to getting her first tooth also. Tonight we put her to bed without swaddling her for the first time. She went right to sleep. It kind of makes me sad. She is growing up too fast.

Ding and Dong are so full of attitude right now. Raegan is sassy and then Colton copies her. So neat. They sure do love each other though. I think they need a weekend at Grandmas. Let me know when you want them!! I think this picture of Raegan "shows off" her sassy side!

Night Time


It's 10:15, everyone is in bed. It is quiet. Someday I will want the chaos......but right now the peace is SO nice.
