Father and Sons...

Two weeks ago, Turtle took on a major feat. When I say major, I mean M*A*J*O*R!
He decided to take the boys camping with the Elder's Quorum. He did this last year as well, but here is the kicker, it was raining cats and dogs! It had been raining all week long, and he knew that the weather would stay the same through the weekend. He braved the storm, and the boys and off they went!
Anyone who knows my hubby, knows he is great at improvising, and making due with what he has. Lots of rain and a rather nice tent probably wouldn't go over too well... the whole clean up scenario would be less than enjoyable, so he decided he and the boys would sleep in the Pilot. It worked BEAUTIFULLY! They stayed snug, warm, and DRY!
My boys had so much fun! They thought it was so cool to sleep in the car! They loved playing with the other boys in the neighborhood, and most of all having their dad all to themselves! I was pretty proud of the boys, and very happy that Turtle took them out! What an amazing daddy!




Turtle got some fun pics on the way home. They took the scenic route and were able to see a moose, and some pretty nifty waterfalls, and of course play in the mud and snow!




Check out my handsome boys!




Growing on up!



Miss Courtney is four months old! Four months of solid fun! We are loving this little girl like crazy! What an amazing little spirit she has! Here are some facts about her...
She LOVES her binky. She won't take just any binky, it has to be the Soothie binky...you know the big rubber one that they give you in the hospital? Yeah, that's it, that is all she will take! I did find it in pink...she seems to be okay with that!
She is a good little eater, she eats about every three hours, sometimes 2 sometimes four hours, but usually every 3.
She is very easy going.
She loves to swing still! It's here favorite place to nap!
She loves to be held!
Her brothers make her smile at least a dozen times a day!
Each night she will sleep about 8 hours, then wake up, eat, and back to sleep for 2-3 hours.
She is now wearing 3-6 mos. clothes. I was quite sad to put the 0-3 size in a bin!
Her daddy is her favorite.
She has rolled over about 6 times in the past month. She doesn't do it everytime, but she is getting there.
She still let's me put bows, headbands, hats and bracelets on her!
She loves kisses from her daddy and her brothers.
She loves to be outside!
