The pictures speak for themselves

Matthew decided he wanted to put make up on like mommy does. So he painted his face with lipstick. He also decided that Jon might look better with some lipstick on as well. Ironically enough, his shirt said that he was on the nice list. Thankfully, Jon wasn't as impressed with wearing mommy's makeup as Matt was.

I've got some catching up to do

What's new this month? Our little porker weighed in at 12 pounds 11 ounces. He turned 2 months on the 13th. We had a baptism party for him this past weekend as well. Both boys were discharged from the NICU clinic the middle of November. We took a trip to Baltimore last week to see a friend of mine. While there, we went to the aquarium in Baltimore.

Matt was pointing at a reptile in the display.

Matt turned around to tell me he saw a fish.

We all loved the dolphin display.

He loved the dolphins!

Updates and good news

I will do this is several posts. Christopher was baptized Saturday the 23rd. This month has been filled with many milestones. Jon has started to keep his clothes on more, as opposed to my last post. Matty is doing more animal impressions. My favorite is the deer.

We were given the go ahead to stop Chris on the apnea monitor! That's the good news.

Christmas Pictures

Hellish...that's the only way I can describe our holiday picture fiasco. Matty cried basically the entire time, tried to run off and refused to get his picture taken. Then when he calmed down, it was Jon's turn to freak out. When Jon finally calmed down it was Chris' turn to freak out. Good times.... just when we were ready to call it off and reschedule their pictures for another day we ended up getting some good shots. Then, Jon and Matty broke the prop. Yup, my kids demolished them. On top of all of that, when I was ordering the pictures, Jon and Matt were fighting with each other. Then when I went to pay, Jon decided it was time to bolt....out of the picture studio right into the middle of Sears. I'm so glad that I brought their harnesses. Anyway, I hope you all enjoy the pictures.

You need a good sense of humor in our house

So, my cousin Ruth gave us coordinating outfits for all 3 of the little boys. I've been waiting for the day when I can put Chris' outfit on him and it would fit. That day was on Tuesday. It started out an ok day. I had gotten all 3 boys a bath the night before so they were nice and clean in the morning. I was on the phone with Wal-Mart trying to find a Wii for Josh. George was with the cable guy since we were basically without working cable since Friday. George put Jon and Matt in their room to get them away from the cable guy. When he went to go check on them somehow they got a package of not yet frozen fruit sorbets and decided that would make a good fingerpainting medium. It was on the floor, the glider and all over them! So, we couldn't get the pictures with all three boys but we did with Chris.

He looked very cute in his outfit!

I bought Chris a sleeper to take to my parent's house for Josh.

BTW, if you are reading this and care to be there, Chris is getting baptized Thanksgiving weekend.

Life is so hard

I tried a photo session with Chris. He wasn't all too happy with me.

But he got in a better mood and I was able to get more photos....

Since transitioning Jon and Matt into toddler beds, we've found them in the strangest places sleeping.

The call him the streak

Jon has this little habit of taking his clothes off. You all know that. So the other day he took his shirt off, started pulling down his jeans, took his diaper off and insisted we go upstairs for a diaper change.

If anyone has a suggestion on how to keep Jon in his clothes let me know. I don't feel like being the mommy to a nudist.
