More Milestones for Baby Jay

Jay is now 9 months and growing at a tremendous rate of speed! He started crawling back a month ago and since then he is going non-stop. He starting pulling up at about 8 1/2 months, so now he cruising the couch, crib, pack-n-play, pretty much anything that he can pull up on.

With all his moving, he is having equal movement in his mouth! He has already had three bottom teeth come in and is currently cutting his 4 top teeth! He is the only one to not cut his top teeth in vampire style.

Growing, growing.... won't be long until we celebrate his 1st birthday!

Klaire is 3!

My how quickly the time passes, but little baby Klaire is now three. She was quite decisive on what she wanted for her birthday. When asked, she quickly said a princess bike and a big pooh book. Wow, could it get any easier! So Kris made it happen. She had a great birthday, starting it off at chick-fil-a for breakfast and to play at the playset (which we don't normally do- germs you know) then a quick trip to publix earned her a balloon- how I love publix! To end the day, she had cupcakes at church with her class. All in all she had a great day and one that was just about her!

Speaking of all about her....

At two she became funnier, friendlier, and more stubborn.
She likes to give hugs, dance around, and annoy her sisters.
Klaire says things like, "love you too", "no way!", and "no I not!!!"
Here favorite things are her bunny (who is cleverly named bunny), blocks, and her sisters toys- especially the ones they are presently playing with.

She is a ton of fun and ball of fire and we thank God for such an amazing child He has entrusted to us.

Big Jay

Well he was on the small side at first, but my has he grown. We call he affectionately the Chucky Monkey, along with Jay Bird, Bub, Bubba, Buddy, JJ and handsome.

Here are a few milestones he has hit at 6 months
- first teeth and now he has two bottom teeth!
- sitting up unsupported
- razzing, which the girls love to join in with
-flirting, boy do they learn it young

He is such a happy baby and really easy. I prayed for God to give me a mellow baby and he is quite mellow. He is very sweet and has such a sweet smile. What a joy he is and so much fun for everyone- especially his sisters! They can't get enough of him!

A few milestones

We will start at the bottom and work up

Jay

Has started to rolling over and over and over till he gets off his play mat. He is laughing and likes being tickled. And he is "sooooo cute!!!!" This is Katy's phrase and now Karoline has joined in the sweet but rather annoying description of their precious brother.

Klaire

Learned "shut up" today. We do not allow that word in the house, so I don't know where she got it from. Unfortunately Klaire is one who thinks it is funny to say something she is not suppose to say. A few other milesstones for Klaire- rolling her eyes, pointing her finger and saying "no", putting her hands on her hips with one foot out as she defends herself. She is going to be a mess. I am afraid what she might say when she gets her language in full swing!

Karoline


Still living up to her name.  She has decided she wants to be a mommy when she grows up and wants a mommy birthday party (in December mind you- that gives me some time). Don't know how I am going to pull that one off.

Katy

My big helper and considers herself to be third in command. She has finished her schoolwork for the year, so now we can do more science! She loves science and math- I assume the lefty coming out in her. She has done very well this year- all A's. She reads everything she gets her hands on, and I must be careful because she got ahold of the homeschool magazine and it says that she could begin learning Latin this year. Needless to say she want to learn Latin. I really wish Kris would have taken languages in seminary.

Rolling on along

 Not only has he started to share his smile, he also started rolling over today, in the nursery at church to be exact!
