Sarah's Adorable Pictures

I love her cute tongue!
Oh my gosh she is so big (that is for the girls at work)!
Mommy and Sarah
Proud Parents
This is Sarah's first official pictures. We went to JcPennies and I think that they did a good job, of course Sarah is just a doll. Can you see that I am a proud mother? Sarah is 4.5 weeks old here! (If you can't tell I am not sure how to crop the pics- but I figure at least you can see how cute she is)

Blister?



This past Friday Sarah was wearing this cute outfit with a bow. She wore the bow all day. That night Daddy was giving Sarah a bath, and he called to me and said that she had a blister. I couldn't believe it. She did wear the bow all day and they were new. I guess she is sensitive. She was a wake all afternoon, which wasn't normal for Sarah but no cries. Poor Sarah- the blister is healing!

Easter

Our family!

Mamma's cute girl! Happy Boy- he liked the jelly beans!

This year we decided to do the Easter bunny with Jonathan, although he really didn't get it. It was still have! The Easter bunny came on Saturday, so that we could remember the real meaning of Easter. Jonathan enjoyed picking the grass out of the basket! He was very excited about his basket though!Later that day we had a Easter hunt at my parents house. Jonathan crawled to an egg and picked it up and threw it. Jonathan then had a piece of candy and was happy! The pictures on top are of Easter day, we enjoyed church and a nice dinner at my parents. We have also started doing a little FHE with Jonathan and we talked about Christ. I think that that Jonathan can say Jesus, in his own jargon its cute!

Spring

Our cute Boy!
Being with Daddy!
Jonathan loves balls!

I just love Spring! It is almost here, today is great and yesterday was great weather also! Jonathan just loves to be outside! This past week Dave was working in the yard outside and Jonathan was outside with him. He just loved it! We have gotten out the wagon and have gone on walks lately and Jonathan loves it also. He just loves being outside, and he loves to wake to people he see!

Happy St Patrick's Day

Brother and Sister! This is another picture I took today! Sarah in her green!
This past week Dave was fixing the computer and Jonathan wanted to help!
I know this is a wried picture to post, but we went to Chili's and at the end Jonathan was plying with the sugar packets, and I guess he snuck a few packets in without me seeing.
So Jonathan isn't standing or walking yet, but he is a smart boy! So Jonathan has figured out how to climb up on his bike then on the white container and get things that are on top of the black container. He thinks that he is pretty cool that he can do this. He loves to climb! We are having PEEP (people from the city came and evaluate him and see if there is anything that they can do to help him out with!) come and work with Jonathan.
Aren't they cute!
Happy St Patrick's Day! I usually make Corn Beef and Cabbage on St Patty's, but we had it yesterday at my parents, so I am going to make it later this week. We only have it once a year! So instead I made split pea soup- I thought that was a good Green dinner!
Grandma and Grandpa came to visit- so I decided to take some pictures. Jonathan wanted to get on Grandpas lap but by the time that I was ready to take the pictures he was done! This post is just random things from this past week!
This is Grandma Harris's first time meeting Sarah, we were happy that she came and saw us! She enjoyed holding Sarah and of course Sarah enjoyed sleeping. Sarah is wearing a cute outfit Grandma Harris gave her. Thanks!
Below is Sarah doing tummy time. She doesn't mind tummy time which is new for me. After about 10-15 minutes she is done. She is very strong. I also think that she looks a lot like Abby here! I m going to do a post pictures of Dave and I when we were little- and see who Sarah looks like the most!
So it really didn't turn out- but this is a picture of what Luke and Lacey decided to do to our new clean car (we never wash it and we decided to a few days before). We were getting ready to go and Luke and Lacey decided to through dirt on are car- they didn't touch theirs. Papa got after them!!!

Each Child is Different!

Well, I was told this a lot growing up, which I know is true. But today I just came to that realization once again. Jonathan and Sarah are so different- in so much size, temperaments, eating patterns, sleep patterns, growing patterns. Well, it hit me today. I was at my Mom's (it is a weekday and she is home- cause of her procedure- everyone was loving it. The Grandkids, Kristi, and I) we were on Mom's bed talking and holding Sarah. Kristi was holding Sarah trying to make her smile. Then I was holding her and she was smiling and looking at me. And then I realized that she knew my voice. She has started to be more interactive each day and I love it. Now remember she is only 1 month old almost 5 weeks this week. This was different with Jonathan. He was slow with everything just cause his size and being born early. So it is so much fun to have Sarah interacting a lot earlier. Another thing is Jonathan is a slower grower as you all now. He is in the same clothes for months on end. He has been in the same gap pants for oh I would say at least 9 months. Now at my baby shower for Jonathan- there was advice given to make sure that you wear an outfit, a lot cause they will grow out of it fast. Well, I didn't really believe that cause Jonathan is wearing out clothes cause he is in them so long. Well, Sarah is so different in this matter. She has worn this one cute outfit once and she is wearing today, and she might have one more time before she is grown out of it. Some of you might not know but I do cloth diapers and I have been having problems with Sarah leaking through them- which is not common for me. Well, I was talking to my Sister and Mom today- and they helped me realize that she is out grown them. I don't want her to grow that fast cause then my baby won't be a baby for long. Such as life! Got to go Sarah is calling!

Smiles

So is adorable!
finger nails and I have tried to clip them- but during her nap she scratched herself! Sad (its gone now)
I had to put one on with her cute bow that Kristi made!
Well, on Tuesday Sarah has started to smile- it is so cute. I love it. So I have been trying to caputre it!

Wax All Over!

The mess!
No more red candles!
This is how close I could get Jonathan to the mess, he knew that he didn't something bad. He got mad when I tried to put him close to the mess! Then I picked him up, and I said uh-oh pointing to the mess, and then he said it. It made me laugh!
I think that it cleaned up pretty good!
So this morning, I did the usual got up changed diapers then feed Sarah- while Jonathan played in the family room. Then Jonathan ate and I was eating. Jonathan was done, and I was cutting my grapefruit. I had already shut all doors so that he couldn't get into anything. Then I hear this drop and thing tricking- like water. I ran into the entry, and we have a candle in the that is on hot plate. Jonathan must have pulled on the plate or pushed the candle. There was wax everywhere- an did I mention that it was red! I gave a big sigh and picked up Jonathan and a picture that was in the wax. I then within a few minutes, Kristi called and asked if she could come and get Jonathan. It was like a heaven sent- thanks Kristi. I was trying to decide how I was going to clean this up with Jonathan around. So I let it dry and then I finally cleaned it up. It took about a half an hour- I wasn't sure how it was going to clean up. But it did great- and now I have the scooba on the floor mopping! Sarah is in the sling, falling asleep! It all turned out!

Life

Jonathan loves to see what we are cooking at dinner and be right there. So we have been putting a chair by the counter and Jonathan is in Heaven. Daddy and Jonathan getting dinner ready!
Sarah at night wants to be held, and doesn't like to be in her crib till late. So that I can get some cleaning done. I put her in this handy-dandy sling. It is so nice!

So I am trying to be a good Mom and put past my feeling about pink and being really girly! Isn't she so cute! This is Sarah two Sundays ago, it was her first time in a dress. I usually put her in a sack! She was so cute- with her bow (thanks Kristi), bracelet (thanks Mom), tights, and a cute dress.
