6 MONTHS

Miss Molly is 6 months old already! She weighs 15 lbs 7 oz (36%) and is 25 inches long ( 22%). And of course her head is at the bottom of the charts in the 5th percentile. She is so cute! She likes to play with her tongue. It is the cutest little tongue. She pulls it in and out of her mouth over and over. I just love to watch her and smile at her which makes her do it more. And of course makes her slobber more. She is a pro at rolling over now and turning around in circles. Because of this new found skill she will sometimes play on the floor by herself for over an hour just going from one toy to the next. Super nice for mom. Molly is a superb sleeper! Most days she will take two, two hour naps (sometimes longer) and still go to bed about 8:30 and sleep through the night until 8 or later the next morning. She has a bit of a cold right now so she doesn't go to sleep quite as easily but hopefully that will be gone soon. Molly loves to eat. So far she eats whatever we give her. She eats cereal mixed with a container of fruit in the morning, two containers of food for lunch, and cereal mixed with veggies for dinner. She also nurses before each nap and before bedtime. She loves her brothers and sister. And she gets excited when she sees Daddy walk into the room. We have so much fun with her. I love to snuggle with her. One of my favorite things is when she falls asleep when I am holding her. It doesn't happen often so when it does I hate to lay her down. We love her so much. I love her smile and her laugh. She is perfect for our family!

KID PICS

My attempt to get a picture of all six children. With everyone looking and no funny faces. Not an easy task my friends. Enjoy!






Finally on the very last shot I got everyone looking at me. Just imagine a smile on Lucas's face and we have a perfect picture.

Happy Birthday Lucas!

Lucas had a birthday on March 16th and entered into the terrible two's. He is such a cute little boy but he has definatly learned how to throw a tantrum. If he doesn't get what he wants he drops to the floor and crys. When he is happy he loves to play with his brothers and sisters. He loves to give kisses. And he loves to read books. He was super excited about this dinosaur that my mom gave him. He also got a remote control car and a Sit and Spin. Rachel got on this first and started spinning. When Lucas got on and couldn't figured it out he just got mad and started crying. Once he got it figured out he had a good time with it.
I must be the lamest Mom ever. I didn't even have any eggs to make a birthday cake so he got rice crispy treats instead. He didn't mind too much. All he ever eats anyway is the ice cream. I think he weighs 22 lbs which is hardly on the chart but that's kind of how my kids are. He can be such a sweet little guy and we love him so much. Happy Birthday Lukey Bug!!
