Sneaky progress

On Monday I had to take daegen to the doctors because he had an ear infection . So Brock came home early from work to watch pierce. When I came home my babies hair was cut. But brock promised me it wasn't his "first" hair cut. It was just so it could grow even. But I did go rescue a few hairs to save. .............
Pierce is now officially sitting up. We have been working on it and he has been getting close this last week. So I would now say he officially sits up. He is growing so fast and is still the most giggly happy baby. He just loves getting kissed and tickled. Next month we should have our crawling down.

6 months

This adorable 6 month has officially stole my heart. If I just look at him I get a huge grin and giggle. He is getting better at sleeping . He wakes up about once a night. He is very observant and turns his head at every sound he hears. He will stare into your eyes tell he figures you out . He is very strong and will scoot around on his tummy ( just in a circle) . He will grab everything in sight and stick it in his mouth. He loves his big boy food. We are into carrots and winter squash. He disliked the greens , we will try them again soon. We went to the docs and he has grown like a weed.


His weight is 19pounds .5 oz 75%
Height 27" 60%
Head 46cm 95%

2 gallons of disaster.

I had to document my disaster at the grocery store today.  After the gym I thought I could quickly go get 2 gallons of milk at the store. So we get there and all was well. Then I had to fight daegen on not getting the car carts. Those carts at this particular store are always trashed and soaking wet ...ect.  So we got a normal cart and of course daegen wont get in it, and throws his boots in the cart and insists on walking. So I throw him in the cart which resulted in us getting a lot of attention because, I not only have a 3 year old screaming about a blue car cart but it upsets Pierce so I have a crying baby too. I get my stuff that I need with only a few challenges. Then I go check out. I put every thing on the conveyer belt to then realize my wallet is in the car!!!!! I told the cashier guy and he said ok i'll be here go get it. So I told Daegen k we need to go to our car really fast. But.... He spots the play area. he lost it. he wouldn't move unless it was into the play area. I asked the babysitter lady if I could drop him off so I could run and get my wallet really fast. She said do you have your ID. (well of course not) So I scoop up daegen in a foot ball hold and pierce is on my other arm and I charge to the door with again 2 screaming children. I find the nearest cart throw daegen in it and get to my car like nobody s business. I came back waited another 5 min in line to pay for my groceries and vowed Id never just "run" in to get milk.



But then you come across pictures like this and realize how precious they are.  Even if they make getting 2 gallons of milk challenging. They are worth every challenge.

Christmas tree adventure

Thanksgiving

We had a fun thanksgiving and a delicious feast. We missed beth and her family though. I planed on taking a lot of pics but that didn't happen of course:( we also went downtown on black friday to see Santa. Daegen wouldn't even sit on his lap this year. Daegen took a picture of the picture. here is what I have...

Were really excited around here

Brock had to get a Christmas tree for church , so he brought it back home for the week. Daegen loves this tree. He always keeps the lights on. We will turn them off when he falls asleep , I'll walk by his room in the morning and by then he will had turned them on. He is the only person Brock and I know of who will hug there Christmas tree because there so excited.,

We have a new dog at our house

Daegen the dog. I caught him drinking out of the dog bowl , so I told him if he wanted his own bowl of water I could get him his own. It back fired and he really enjoyed role playing being a dog. We had a dog house , dog food (cereal) doggie naps and doggie bones/cookies. So this has been going on for about 2 weeks now I'm done having 2 dogs.

Blend tec bread

I tried to make bread dough with my blend tec. Brock said the best thing about the bread is that he could see the hand prints that made it:( I guess I'll have to use the kitchen aid.

Happy 4 month birthday

Wow my sweet chuba chub. You bring a smile to my face. I don't know how you do it but every month you get more smiley and giggly. Every time I come into the room you smile and start moving your arms and legs with excitement. How I love you my little scoby do. When ever I need a laugh all I have to do is give you a little squeeze like a tickle me Elmo, and you laugh hysterically. Heres to 4 months my little man.

Happy Birthday/anniversary 2011 Amy

Halloween day

Our Halloween day started out by having a kids Halloween lunch at our house. I didn't want to go to the store so I used what I had Mac and cheese. The kids didn't care they had fun seeing each other in the costumes.

Daegen has gotten really into this holiday so it was really easy to want to go all out. He was so excited to dress up as a robot. He didn't know what to expect but he knew we had to go trick or treating . I think it exceeded all his expectations. He loved it. He would go up to the door , Say , trick or treat and then say thank you. He had it down. Some doors were to scary like uncle matchs and aunt Erins .

When we got home he wanted to lay out all his candy and eat it of course , and Brock let him. So I couldn't be the party pooper so I kept my mouth shut.

Daegen was exhausted and fell right to sleep. But in the morning he ran and got his robot costume and asked to go trick or treating again. I said sorry you'll have to wait till next year.

Happy 3 months

Baby Pierce, you are the specialist little man. You love being entertained especially by big brother. You are extremely ticklish. Every time I get you dressed you giggle because it tickles so much. You will talk to anyone if they make eye contact with you and you melt hearts with your smile. We love you baby pierce. Happy 3 months

Pierce is getting so big
