You don't know cold...

Unless you live in Wisconsin and it is -25 (with wind chill) and your mailbox freezes shut.  We will be going to Arizona and I asked my mom if it is cold there.  She said, "Yes.  It's gotten down to like 45 degrees."  Yikes!  I bet they are having snow days there just so the children who don't own jackets in Arizona don't have to go out in the cold.  

Photo shoot - Picture overload

I published this and then realized how rude I sound.  It was not meant to be rude, just a warning that there are tons of pics.
If you don't want to see pictures of the kids, don't look at our blog.  There are way too many, but I can't help it.  Whitney wanted to dress up, so I gave her a reason.  I wish Brooke were here and I would have taken them all together.  

This is why I am glad I went

I am so glad I was able to go to Grammy's funeral.  It was so nice to say good-bye and get to see most of my aunts & uncles and cousins on my mom's side and even some from my dad's.  But, one my favorite things was watching my Poppa interact with Liam.   My mom and Liam enjoyed each other so much too!

My cousin Patti's Nia had a Bumbo, so she let Liam try it out.  I think he likes it!  Patti was constantly giving us things and letting us borrow EVERYthing.  She is so sweet and made the stay much easier.


It was great to see my parents again and of course they helped with Liam non-stop.  Poor Liam had a cold and I was worried about him breathing the whole time, but it was nice to have them helping!!
Isn't my dad's smile so cute?!  Liam looks a lot like my dad normally does in this picture!

Adam was a prophet

Yesterday on the way to the doctor, Whitney was singing:

Daddy was a prophet,

First one that we know,

In the land of Readin' (Eden),

He helped things to grow.

Liam had his well-check yesterday.  He has gotten so big.  He is 24" and 13 lb. 1 oz.  He went from 50th percentile the last time he was weighed and now is up to the 80th.  He probably started around the 80th and then dropped down because of the colitis, but has made up for it.  

Just two more inches and he will have grown out of his infant car seat.  His head in the 91st percentile.  Why do my kids always have monstrous heads?
