Thank you James!

Yesterday, when I went to go get the mail, I saw that here was a letter addressed to Oliver. When we opened it, we saw that it was from his cousin James. He had sent a little Valentine to Oliver. I thought this was the cutest little gesture. Thank you James! Oliver is lucky to have you for a cousin and he can't wait until he can play with you.

Trying to take a picture of Oliver and his valentine card before he pokes himself in the eye.

And here is the Valentine. Personally addressed and signed by James... And may I add that those valentine cards were a great choice.

Game night

Tonight after our Bi-weekly Baker dinner, We were able to stay up a little later then usual (since the kids don't have school tomorrow) and we played one of our family favorites...PICTIONARY!

The gang. It was boys vs. girls with the girls having Tate to even things out.


The Drawings...

The Jello took a us while to guess. Actually I think it was Green Jello. The pig took the boys team only a few seconds to get. I guess even without drawing the curly pig tail they were still able to get it.

I love that in this picture, Spencer (on the right) drew a purse first so that we knew it was a woman.

This was our favorite drawing of the night. When Spencer first drew this card he started to laugh and so did Tate, so of course we thought it was going to be something gross. We were guessing FAR worse then what it really was. Who knew it would have been Skinny all along. Thanks for throwing us off Spence!

Pictionary with Children is the best thing ever. It's much more entertaining then just playing with a bunch of grown-ups. And the winners were....THE BOYS!!!

"We are all a little weird and life's a little weird, and when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love."

To all those who believe that love is real, we wish you a Happy Valentines day!

I can't believe that Oliver is 5 months today! These past months have gone by faster then any others.

We are happy to announce that Oliver has hit the 20 pound mark!!! He is our potato bug, humpty-dumpty, baby bear, Rollie-pollie-ollie, our tank, chunk, fatty, chubs, and anything else you can think of that describes all 20 lovable and squeezable pounds of him.

Not so sure about this...

I thought today would be a good day to introduce Oliver to some rice cereal. He didn't think it was such a great idea. All he wanted was a full belly and fast. First, when I put him in his Bumbo, he didn't care for that much. Then, when he felt a spoon in his mouth that wasn't producing a steady flow of milk, he got really mad. I think it may take a while before he actually gets what's really going on.
