Take 3 on 3 Month Pictures...Happy Harlow 14 weeks

Well 3rd times the charm with Harlow's 3 month pictures. Harlow had what they thought was a sinus infection (they say it's hard to say for sure with a baby) a couple of weeks ago and she lost some of her bright pink Amoxicillin on her white onesie the first time I tried taking her 3 month pictures and on my second attempt, she kept spitting up and on top of it wasn't really in the mood to model for pictures. I knew after I took the first picture this 3rd attempt that my model was ready to work the camera with her gorgeous smile.

Harlow sure is a good baby. She almost always sleeps through the night and is so easy going when we are out about running errands. She is just now starting to really enjoy toys; her favorite being those chubby little hands of hers. She had stopped sucking her thumb the last couple of weeks but the past few days she found it again and has been sucking away on it. Her favorite place to be is in her swing, she loves looking at the toys and often takes a nice long nap while swinging away. I still love cloth diapering and so does Harlow.



First time Harlow checked out Lulu the Lamb, sure she was wondering what it is she is sitting on.

I love love those cheeks!


I have a couple other Blog posts I hope to get up either today or tomorrow. I have some nice pictures of our Thanksgiving as well as our Yo Gabba Gabba! concert yesterday so stay tuned. I need to run some laundry and start decorating the house for Christmas in between my computer time today. If only I had more hours in the day I might be able to get it all done.

Once You Go (i)Mac You Never Go Back

I just had to share my newest love, my new iMac computer. I always talked about how much I would love an Apple computer and Jon decided it was time to get me one, gosh I love him. I still have a lot to learn on how to use it but I am confident I will figure it out in time. It really is easy to use and sure is a beauty to look at.

I also wanted to share with you this link, it's Paige's Nursery Rhyme performance on video on her Mrs. Khan's class Blog.

Also, you may notice this photographer Diana Hall has quite a few pictures in her slideshow/ babies gallery of our very own Harlow. I sure wish I had a money tree so I could have bought more of her amazing pictures; she came to our house a week after Harlow was born for an in-home photo shoot and really did a great job of capturing Harlow as a newborn. Gosh I love a good picture, pictures truly are priceless!

Thankful Thursday

Well we had another fun filled week around here. On Monday, I took Aiden to Build-A-Bear with some friends so he could make an animal for one of the Star Wars costumes they carry. He chose the Camo Bear, dressed it in the Darth Vader costume and named it the obvious choice of Darth Vader.

I figured it would be another furry friend and a decoration for his new Star Wars themed room. He has been sleeping with Vader and pushing him around in the blue stroller since he made him so he has quickly become a favorite toy. Jon is still doing the touch-up work on the painting in his room and we are still waiting on his dresser but after we get it all put together I will share pictures of his new Star Wars themed big boy room.

Giving his bear some love...oh yes, don't mind the PINK Hello Kitty watch, he insisted on wearing it after his sister had worn it for a few days.

Paige had a Thanksgiving performance at school on Tuesday night. She was the sweetest little Pilgrim (she told me today she also made an Indian costume.) I got back her school pictures and was so relieved that they were picture perfect. I will get them in the mail to you all in a few days.

Doesn't she make for the cutest Pilgrim?!

Kidergarten 10/2009


Jon and I found the perfect swingset for the kids' Christmas present. I didn't want to bring a ton of toys into the house and knew it would be the best thing we could spend our money on with 3 kids and an empty backyard. Now we just have to figure out how to make the magic happen (Jon and a friend plan on putting it together as the delivery/set-up cost was over $600+ for them to do it...eek!) and get it up without the kids seeing it for Christmas morning.

I am buying each of the kids a few things though (of course Harlow needs some baby girl toys since she won't be jumping on that playset quite yet) on their wish list, since with winter around the corner it will be a couple of months before they will get to take full advantage of the swingset.

I am really looking forward to next week, Paige is off of school all week for the holiday and I have some really fun events planned for the kids.
