4 months

Our little Noah turned 4 months yesterday. He is still such a good baby and chill.
-he weighs 17 lbs
-he loves his hands
- he is trying really hard to roll from back to front
-he still hates his tummy(my only child that hasn't liked that)
-half of his head is blonde and the other half is brown
-He still loves to be swaddled. The only drawback to this is the minute he finds his way out he cries because he doesn't like being free
-he is getting his bottom 2 teeth
-he still LOVES his brother Nicky. He thinks he is the coolest thing ever. I love the way he smiles at him.
-he still LOVES Sammy. Sammy is like his 2nd mom.
-he is still terrified of Parker, and he has every right to be. We are working on Parker being nicer to him.
And of course some pictures. Notice in 3 out of 4 pictures his mouth is open and it's probably because his bottom lip is so big. Takes after his Daddy and Grandpa Lund. Oh and also I love his little ears and how the tops of them come out....so stinking cute!

Love this picture!

As I was looking through pictures I realized I have hardly any with my kids. I am always the one behind the camera. So I made Luke take some pictures this weekend of me and some of the kids. Alright now I need to go cuddle with my sick baby, sick babies are no fun!

My Girl!

Oh how I love this girl! Attitude and all. Sammy has a mind of her own(gee I wonder where she gets that from) which is sometimes good and sometimes not so good. She loves anything girly but she also loves to play baseball with her brothers and dad. I can't wait for her and I to spend a whole day shopping and getting our toes done. The plus side of her being the only girl. She is such a good big sister to Noah. Sometimes when I see her brothers playing something together and having their brother time I get sad that she won't have a sister. Honestly if I knew that we would have a girl next I would totally do it so she could have that sister bond, but it's not a sure thing and I'm not sure I could handle more boys. It's just her and me. I'm okay with that.
Love her smile:

Mommy and daughter:

Don't mind her mullet hair. I had it all cute and the minute we get home she takes it all out. Hey at least I try.

Being silly:

All 4

Wherever Noah and I go the other 3 follow. Story of my life. This just happened to be a day when I didn't care if they were right behind me 24/7. Noah has just started sitting in his Bumbo seat and he pretty much loves it! It makes getting dinner ready a little bit easier. When the older kids saw that Noah was allowed to sit on the counter they thought it meant them too.

Now here is their real personality. Crazy, silly, weird, but most of all cuties.

Kindergarten Play

Tonight Nicholas had his kindergarten play. It was all about BUGZ and it was the cutest thing ever. His part was an army ant and he took it very serious. You hardly ever saw him smiling because he was told army ants are serious and get down to business. Nicholas sometimes comes across as a shy guy but he loves to be in the spotlight. He had to memorize his part and he did great. His part said " Well now that we know how to act, it must be time to go. Gather round every buggy we'll travel in a row." The teachers did such a great job with it.

Nicholas is on the very right

doing their army dance

The only "smile" i could get from him. Apparently the teachers told them not to leave the stage and I made him get off to take a picture. He was very nervous he would get in trouble.

Me and my army ant!!

3 months

Noah turned 3 months on the 27Th. 3 months? Since he is our last one(people still don't believe me) I find myself getting a little sad. I wish I did this blogging thing when Nicholas was born because I love being able to document things as my kids get older and reach certain milestones. Yes I know that's what keeping a journal is for. Believe me I tried it but it lasted the first 6 months of Nicholas's life. I am so much better at this blogging thing.

Back to Noah:
-He is a pretty good baby
-He is sleeping much better at night
-His hands are huge, so big that i can barely fit them through some shirts
-He is almost out of 3-6 month clothes
-Due to him being sick he hasn't had his 2 month check up yet so I don't know all his stats but I do know he weighed 15 lbs 3 oz about 2 weeks ago.
-He has gone through diaper sizes like crazy. He is already in a 3
-His smile is the cutest thing ever. He gets this twinkle in his eye when he smiles
-He has yet to roll over
-He's a strong boy but hates being on his tummy because that means he has to lift his head up. He doesn't like doing that.
-His ears stick on on top, it's pretty cute.
-He loves to pretend punch his brothers and sister
-He is laughing more and more
-He doesn't like his car seat much(this is a hard one to adjust to)

The kids can't get enough of him. They are getting a little too comfortable with him. Sometimes I find Parker on top of him in the bouncy seat, or kissing him so hard that he starts screaming, or digging his fingernails into his head. No big deal right? Sammy now thinks she is big enough to carry him around the house. About 10 minutes ago she was carrying him and dropped him. Luckily it was on carpet. Hey it's the joys of having 3 older siblings.
Some pics for your enjoyment:

This is Noah's cousin Owen. Owen was born about 5 months before him. They are pretty much the same size in height and weight. Noah might be a little bigger. They love to stare each other down. I can't wait to see the trouble these kids get into.

Also Luke's brothers wife just had a baby boy a couple days ago so now Noah has another boy cousin to hangout with. Boys are everywhere!
