Just a month older and lots of changes have happened!

*** Ledger just loves toys anything he can grab his little hand around! He chews and drools jabbering all the way!

***I just love watching him reach out with his little hand for a toy then grabbing it with his fingers so amazing!!

****He now has two teeth hopefully we are good for now on teething for a month haha!

***His other favorite past time is eating he is so spoiled you go to set him down in his chair and he pouts and cries before you even let go...but if I show him his baby food his eyes light up and he makes a little mmm mmmm sound! So funny that he is that small and already knows that the little container of food is his!!! I love teasing him so he makes that hungry sound!!!

***Brendan and Treyton just love to talk and play with him now! They can't wait for him to say there names!

They get home from school and first thing they say are I want a snack and HI Poo!!! or Where is Poo?!!

***He laughs at the boys when they are wrestling around practicing there wrestling moves! He is so small and already such a boy!

***I took him to another doc for a second opinion on the reflux and we are now going to test him for food allergies oh boy needles and a baby wish me luck!

He is 16lbs 2 oz now soon we will have to buy him a big boy carseat already!!! He is growing up so so fast!

First ToOth!!

****It is funny how things just show up out of the blue!~! I was just saying that it seemed as if forever he has been drooling...chewing....crying literally all day over teething and nothing coming in!

****He was throwing a fit in the car wanting out the car isn't moving get me out! Ihappened to glance in his mouth and there his little tooth was coming to the surface!

***Me, mom and the kids laughed and laughed he had his first tooth finally!

Crazy thing is he got the 2nd one now coming in just 3 days later!

Teeth a pain from beginning to the end!

****I just had to take some pics with his jungle Lion while he was still little enough to sit in front of him and look little!~

****He was so cute in his little Jungle shirt and smiling away he is much happier since them teeth broke there way through!!

****He has loads of smiles for us all the time I am glad he is such a happy little boy!

***His new thing to do is chomp and chomp his fingers on the new teeth in his mouth!

****He has also weened himself of his Binky to something even bigger and better his thumb!

Just like mommy and big brother haha! So funny what babies do and change everyday I can see why people have so many of them!

BE Mine!

Its that time of year again...
Crazy to think but last year on Feb 14th I found out I was going to have another baby! It was so exciting and happened so fast we were shocked....now one year later here you are! Our little Ledger Pooh!

I always love to help out with my kids class party well parties now but usually i sign up for Halloween my absolute favorite and this year I just couldn't do it with having a new baby!

So I signed up for Valentines day and surprisingly it was fun, and a change of pace! I helped with the craft a cute teddy bear with heart ears and nose with the child's pic in there mouth! Kindergartners are so small, smart and just full of interest to learn new people and things! They were so cute to watch and work with!

Leonard and I headed for Utah to our favorite restaurant PF Chang's it is so good it is worth a near 2 hour drive! We had the best desert Banana Spring Rolls with Pineapple coconut ice cream it was heaven going to try making them now!!
We then went out shopping I seen these little shoes and just fell in love Posier had to have them his first Little Pumas!

The boys made out with loads of sugar and spice and lots of love from all there friends! Grandma and Grandpa Larsen gave them chocolates and bags to heat in the microwave to keep there beds warm! They are so great even mom has one haha!

Treyton was cute he just knew his Old grandma Dolores in AZ would send us a big Chocolate heart aka to the previous years I told him maybe she might get something else this year! Well it showed up a few days later and he was so happy she remembered to send us that giant heart!! He ranted with delight over and over I told you mom ....I told you....and of course ate 2 lbs of chocolate each!! It has become and annual favorite for him now!

I always think of my Grandma Larsen who on Feb 14th which I cried about the first year she had past I was out shopping and it hit me that grandma wouldn't be sending out Valentines that year as I passed the idles of the Boxes at the store that she was really gone! She would always send me and my siblings for Valentines day...Cracker Jacks, and a box of Valentines to give to friends! I miss her and remember her today on Valentines day!!!

Brendan is so funny says he has a LOVE at school and loves to sit behind her and just stare! Wow 3rd grade and in LOVE just to funny for words! He is really cute and proud about it. We have joked and teased him and he just grins bright red and takes it all!!

I got them Gumball Machines, heart suckers and cute green stuff Frogs! Ledger Pooh got a doggie that he just loves to drool and chew on till his heart is content!

Leonard of course spoiled me I just love him allot he always takes great care of me and tries hard to get me something! He bought me pink/brown crocs for winter with fleece lining they are heaven!!! Plus a huge bag of my favorite's candy Skittles since I can't eat chocolate due to nursing and Ledgers reflux! I loved it! Dinner, my card and Shopping was icing on the cake~ It was really a great day with loads of LOVE all around~!

***Ledger finally met Cyn's little Princess Mckelle they just stared and stared at each other! It is the cutest thing ever to watch babies communicate melts my heart!
***They are so close together in size it makes it even cuter to watch them where they are so similar in size Mckelle is just a little longer than Ledger Pooh, she if 6 1/2 months and he is a big boy at 4 1/2 months!

***Mckelle is so cute she would tilt her head side ways at me saying hi and just stare she is such a cutie!!!! I was amazed how much personality she already has!! Too Cute for Words!

She is a clone of her mom and really just the cutest EvER!!!

***I got Mckelle this outfit and coat for Christmas this year and she looked like a porcelain doll in it! I literally had to have it for her I Love, love it and the hat Cyn got was perfect on her!!! I'm sure anyone would agree she is a Princess!

He Laughs 4months!

Our little boy just keeps changing everyday even
after raising two boys already it is still such a joy to
watch another one grow and change!
We were hanging out and Brendan was talking to Ledger and out of know where he giggled we were so shocked we wanted him to do it again and again it truly is one of the cutest sounds I will ever hear in my life!!!

***He is a very smiley, busy and strong baby he stands up on his legs, and squirms all over using his legs to move him already so crazy! He just loves to eat and eat!

***He would watch us eat and move his mouth like give me some would you, so funny at 4 months his pediatrician said it was okay to start with more baby food! Yeah he loves it I thought he might be picky and spit it all out like Brendan did but just the opposite he eats everything!

***He is a very big boy every where I go people stop to talk to him and are sure he is around 6 months of age! He isn't shy at all he has big smiles for everyone! He weighed at the beginning of the month at 14lbs 15oz, now he is already on his way to 16! Funny thing is he is in the 50% on all his weight, length and head! I think he is just perfect!
***Ledger has discovered his little hands he holds them tight together and chews on them constantly jabbering away a de and a da da!! So much for ma ma first!

***He is almost rolling all the way over now from his back to the front I am sure any day now he will have it mastered!
***I am a bit worried took him to the doctor for his stuffy nose that just won't go away and learned his reflux is worse and he had another ear infection due to the acid running up his throat also! I felt so bad of all the things he could get from me I would never wanted this my bad bad stomach! So we are going to a ENT doc to see what are options are on his little sensitive tummy I am hoping and praying he grows out of this and don't suffer daily like me!

***He likes his new toy a excersaucer!! His little eyes go crazy for the cow toy in front it is really funny to watch him get so excited and learn!

***He is just the cutest when he is sleeping I just can't get enough pics of him sound asleep it is just heaven on earth!

Vegas,Cali,Az Vacation!

Finally got some sun! We headed out with snow and dark clouds and after just 6 hours made it to sunshine It is crazy how just that far away is warm! We had a great time and did lots of things!


We started are trip to California and stayed there in a neat hotel right next to the ocean! We could here the waves crashing from our porch it was so pretty, relaxing and sure real at the time!
We promised the boys we would go to LegoLand since we had never been there before! I have never seen such neat things built that big out of that many Legos wow it was so neat! The boys had fun running around the park and riding on the Lego created rides!
We started collecting smashed pennies for there albums everywhere we went and they ended up with a neat collection! The day ended with loads of new things from there gift shop I think they made out like bandits! New shirts, hats, stuffed toys, legos n treasure boxes!

The boys wanted to stay at Circus Circus so we went there and got a room and headed up to the amusement park inside the large casino! Wow them rides are really big in there I was shocked we had never been to that particular place before. They screamed and laughed playing laser tag, getting wet on the log ride and got some neat little souviners playing carnival games! We drove through the hoover dam and had loads of fun! They had never been there before and loved all the lights of Vegas at night!
We went and seen Great Grandma Dolores she has been sick and it is so hard to see her cry when we arrive and then again when we leave! She spoils the boys with loads of love they bolth even slept out in the living room with her she loved it, with lots of TV and Ice Cream they were in seventh heaven! Ledger just smiled and talked to her with no problem like he already knew his old grandma!! Thats what Treyton calls her! She is so neat and fun with lots of creative activities for us to do when we get there! One day we went fishing to a little park there with Grandpa Ray and Grandma Lavonne it was a nice peaceful day they had fun Brendan never wanted to leave he is always so determined to get a fish and keep catching more and more!

SO Precious having grandma hold him we don't make it down much and it was so neat to have got to see her with our little Ledger!

I just love the ocean I wish I could live by it and go to it everyday! Treyton and me had so much fun walking the banks looking for big seashells that had made there way out of the ocean! We got lots it was so fun!

I got soaked in a wave was trying to be careful and just get my feet but a big wave came and soaked me up to my waist which made the day even funner for me, surprisingly!!! Brendan and Leonard ran and ran through the water and tried building Sand Castles! The water is so relaxing and calm, beautiful I love it!

Aww the beach was amazing the sun warm and seashells it was like heaven! Ledger was so calm and just watched the waves crash and kicked his legs! I was so worried before we left he was going to cry and cry and be so hard in the truck for that many hours! He was so good we are so lucky! I was so relieved he did so good sleeping,eating, and just going along with whatever we were doing!

Brendan just loves Indian Jones he was so excited when we went to the gift shop and there he was all built out of the littliest legos! I cannot imagine the hours it took to build him and the other things throughout the park it is really amazing place!

We had grannie apple fries for the first time here by the wishing well witch! They were so good I have to get the recipe now and make some they tasted like fries and apple pie so so good!!! I am craving them now! haha! WE had to laugh when we first got there we headed up to the gates and here was a man and his little boys funny funny they were Legos but from far away they looked like real people I again had to laugh they looked like my family so here I am with my Lego Man and Kid! Haha it was a fun laugh to start the day! We also didn't notice the plate was all Legos either until we were right there looking at it! Amazing! The things they have come up with there for kids!
