When Ansley gets bored

At least once a week I find numerous pictures on my phone of Ansley making all kinds of faces!!


















The pictures aren't the best quality because my phone is cracked! But you get the gist! She is too funny!! Love her!

The run down

What have we been doing the last two weeks?? Chasing Henry everywhere, answering all 500 of James' why questions, getting Ansley better from walking Pneumonia, and so much more.
James:
He is still loving preschool. He Is such a happy kid. He loves playing outside. And can't wait until Ansley's gets off the bus. His newest saying is "it will take for hours!"


Henry has learned how much fun it is to play with James' toys. James does a great job sharing however I do find him behind the table playing with the firetruck
where Henry can't find him.


My cute boy!


Ansley
She is growing up so fast. Last week she had walking pneumonia. Scary! Once she had
Antibiotics, musinex, and Tylenol she got her color back!
We had her parent teacher conference last week. She is exceeding in all areas! We couldn't be more proud.
This is how I found her asleep! She keeps all her chapter books under her pillow. There are at least 6 under her head!


Big sister always a little mommy! Sometimes I wonder if I should run things by her:)


Henry
He is a talker! He loves his voice. He can say baba, dada, momma, and then can scream really loud just for fun or in demand of more food! He favors his daddy over me. Bob walks through the door and Henry can't handle it. He squeals and would run if he could! He is infatuated with vehicles. He will squirm to see a car passing the driveway and watch it until it is completely gone! He has learned to climb stairs. Mostly the basement ones. He is a determined kid!



His pose of the week... "oh no!"


His favorite thing to do when I am doing the laundry!





Hanging with James in the newly carpeted basement while Ansley is at school.


I foresee the teenage years!!

9 months old

Henry is nine months!! He is on the move and not looking back. He is able to get anywhere fast! He can pull up and transfer from furniture to furniture. This past week he practiced standing up and sitting back down. It was super cute to watch. He still worships his siblings and hates to be home alone with me while the other two are at school. He is becoming more intrigued with James and his cool toys. James is very patient but not so sure about this!
Henry is a very determined boy. His favorite thing to do is pull up on the toilet seat, unplug the cable box, and the ultimate is to dump the dogs water bowl over. He was very proud of himself when he climbed up one step tonight!this morning at breakfast the older two taught him to scream, which he likes to use in public! He can say mama and dada. He has the cute baby talk down. He will be playing by himself and just start chatting away! He has three teeth and the fourth one on its way! He is still my champ at teething. When he teethes he seems to just sleep more. No complaints here.
His stats from his check up are:
Weight: 22.1 (75th)
Height: 29 1/4 (90)
Head: 18 1/4 (80)
James at 9 months:
Weight: 21.12
Height: 30 1/4
Head: 18 3/4
Ansley at 9 months
Weight: 18.9
Height: 27 inch
Head: 18 inch
The one thing all three of them have in common is there head circumference! So proud! Henry is still staying strong with James' stats.
He found the doggy door!


This is the angle we see a lot these days.






I foresee our future in this picture.


Playing with brother in the basement!


There's that sweet baby!

So big!

Guess who learned how to do so big today (no Bob already knows:))



Thanks to big sister he is able to do so big even with graham cracker soaked hands! Did I mention he is getting his top teeth in! So the massive amount of saliva he is losing is unreal! He still amazes me on how well he handles the pain of teething. These teeth seem to be painful to him. He cries when he eats so right now he is preferring graham crackers and milk. One has popped through so hopefully he will be better soon. Otherwise he does want to be cuddled more than normal which I really don't mind!
I am currently on a mission to finish decorating the boys bathroom. I am almost there!




Mirrors are roped and towels are done (thanks Kim for making them! Check her out on Facebook Lada-loo!!) I am trying to finish curtains and the other decor! Stay tuned!

Baby pictures!

Finally have all three of my babies ready to hang on the wall! Of course Henry has to be the one to pose different but each of these pictures shows how different each kid is!

It has been a while since I have blogged. Now that school is back in full swing we are busy! I have been doing some part time work with Autistic kids! A great way for me to be at home with my babies and still enjoy what I am passionate about! Enough about me what have my monkeys been up to...
Ansley is loving school. She has made a best friend in her class and is really enjoying riding the bus with the neighborhood kids. She has become our little author! Here is a work sample from school that I have archived in her photo book.




I went to have lunch with she and Frances and had a blast. Her teacher ended up asking me to come back and read to the class. I got a chance to see how wonderful the kids are and how much Henry loves her teacher! While I was in the room the inclusion kids came in so that was a treat. Ansley's school
Has a huge special education department which I love! I can't wait to get involved with that! Ansley has joined a daisy troup with some girls in her grade and has started gymnastics! It is nice to see her so excited about school and friends!
James just started preschool. He is at the same school just the half day program! He is coming home and telling me all about the fun they have in circle time and the playground! He got to take the show and tell bag home this weekend! Of course he was ready to go back to school on Saturday and was very upset that it is a long weekend! Here is a picture of his family that he drew at school. His teacher was very impressed by the detail he used! Henry is the big person and the rest of us only get smaller!




He has suddenly become a side talker. He gets into his pirate mode and talks out of the side of his mouth! His new phrases are "that will take four hours" or "it is taking four hours." He still says "I can't like it." Bob brought me home ice cream tonight and James told him he was a rock star!
Henry is on the move. He is crawling everywhere and always on a mission. Whether he is unplugging the cable box or pulling down books, he is always focused!








He is pulling up and checking out his balance all the time. He has learned to how to fall without too much pain!




(Before you freak out I was right there with him he was not going to be harmed!)
When his siblings aren't entertaining enough he let's them know with an ear piercing scream! Of course they come running! He wants nothing to do with being an only child. He enjoys babbling and trying new foods. He prefers table food but will still eat baby food. He goes for his 9 month check up in a couple weeks!
