Big Girl Bed!

While Zach was off work for Christmas break, he turned Ansley's crib into a big girl bed! She was so excited and spent most of the day jumping off of it! A few days later we took her to Wichita on a mommy and daddy date, where she spent her Toys R Us gift card buying Princess bedding! O, how she loves Princess'! She was in heaven and for about the first week sleeping in her bed went great! But now, its a nightmare! She will typically go to bed fine, but around midnight she finds her way into our bed! O, its horrible! Most mornings we wake up with all four of us in our small queen size bed and a dog at our feet! I'm hoping this ends soon! Here are a few pics of her new bed and bedding!! She is growing up way too fast!



Christmas 2011!

I'm going to have to back date this, since its already January! I have great intentions of making a blog book for the past 3 years, and after we get our new computer this week, I'll have no excuses!  Christmas 2011, I of course had to work so most of our Christmas' were done before Christmas! We celebrated with my parents and Zach's parents on Christmas eve and with everyone else the following weeks! Ansley loved opening presents this year! Karson of course could have cared less, but all in all our kids are spoiled! My mom ordered matching jammies for the kids! Loved them!! I can't remember a whole lot from Christmas, so here are some pics! :)

Dentist: 101

Lets just start with that two is not the age to take Ansley to the dentist. I of course missed her first time to the dentist, due to my lovely job, but Zach and Grandma Teresa took her! She was terrified! Would not open her mouth for anything! So, that appointment was short and sweet with nothing to report except a Dora toothbrush and toothpaste! Ansley loves to brush her teeth and most nights we brush her teeth with no problems, so the dentist wasn't too concerned about not seeing her pearly whites! I did notice last week that she is getting her 2 year mollers in on the bottom! Only two more to go and we are done with teeth! :) Here are a few pics from her experience!

Notice the look of you are crazy lady, I'm not opening my mouth

Maybe next year, she will like it better! :)

There's a new pony in town!

My dad called me a couple of weeks ago, saying that he bought the kids a miniture pony and he would be at our house in 10minutes to show them! I was feaking out and told him several times that he better be joking and thankfully he was! Here is our new pony from uncle Wes and papa Mike! Ansley was terrified of this thing at first, cried when Zach put her on it, but now she loves it and goes for a ride everyday!




Karson: 4 months

I'm a couple of weeks late on Karson's 4 month stat's! What a suprise huh?? :) The week of Karson being 4 months old, we had an appointment to get his shots, but both kids came down with coughs and runny noses! Teresa took the kids to the doctor and sure enough both had ear infections! So no shots for Karson, but we did get a weight on his chubby butt! 18lbs 10oz!! He is one big boy! I call him my chubber lubbers! :)

  • Started rolling over from his back to his tummy the day after Christmas and no we can't keep this boy on his back! Loves to rollover, but only lasts a few minutes before he gets mad
  • wearing size 3 diapers
  • Wearing 6-9 month clothes, more 9 months these days
  • Moved him to his crib last week, thinking he might sleep better, but no such luck. He was sleeping soooo good from 10-4 from the time we brought him home from the hospital, but now its every 2-3hours! Its killing me! I can't sleep at home or at work!!
  • Started cereal last week, but he hates it a gags on it!
  • loves to be held and to cuddle, most nights he sleeps on me just so I can get a few hours of sleep in :(
  • loves the bumbo and exersaucer.
  • smiles and laughs all the time! The out loud laughs, melt my heart.
  • pukes all the time, we go through about 3 outfits a day
  • eating about 5-6oz, when he has a bottle. Only has a bottle when I'm at work.
  • graps objects in his hands and brings them to his mouth.
  • Loves to suck on his hands!

Karson: 4 months almost 19lbs!

Ansley at 4 months! I looked in her baby book she was a little over 14lbs!!

They look so similar to me! :)
