Happy 1/2 Birthday to you!

Happy 1/2 Birthday, dear Leo,

Happy 1/2 Birthday to you!

Leo is six months old today! We celebrated by having his pictures taken by his favorite photographer, Melia, making 1/2 a cake, "L" shaped cookies, and having a little "party." At the doctor yesterday he weighed 16 lbs. 2 oz. & was 27 3/4" long. He's getting to be quite the chunky monkey. :)

Baby Chatter

Can you understand the mystery of baby chatter? I sure can't, but these three had no troubles communicating with each other! Adri always knocks Katelynn in the face, but Katelynn doesn't seem to mind. Leo was willing to chew on anything put in front of him ~ including Adri's hand...

Christmas Jammies

Here are the "Triplets" in their matching jammies. Leo, Adri & Katelynn. The second picture Gavin is holding Adri. She looks scared to death! It was pretty cute watching him be the big brother to all three babies.

The "Triplets" All Dolled Up

The Triplets are all dressed up for Christmas Eve! They looked sooo cute! I can't believe they are all approaching 6 months. Crazy! Where does the time go?!

Opening Presents at Home

I got Leo this set of stacking-rings for Christmas in August! I've been waiting and waiting to give it to him. I love the colors, textures and way it spins. He seems to love it as much as I do!

All Dressed Up

Here we are all ready for Christmas Eve Services at our church. Don't we just look stunning? ;) I LOVE Leo's outfit. I don't think we can take enough pictures of him in it! He was such a good sport to keep his hat on for us. He's such a sweet little guy!

Santa Claus

I was finally able to have Leo awake when Santa was around. I was surprised that Santa would feed babies...Wait...doesn't Santa make you think of someone you might know? Maybe Grandpa Randy? That's it! It is Grandpa! He dressed up for us ~ so I could have Leo's picture with Santa. As my sister always says, "Grandpa Randy is WAY better than Santa!"

Oh the weather outside...

Sunday was a beautiful day outside! It was so foggy, but it made all of the trees, fences, and everything else look like a winter wonderland. Melia called and asked if she could take a few snapshots of us in the frost. Who am I to turn down pictures?!? :) The one of Leo & I is pretty cute, but I had to go and wreck the one of the three of us. Leo was getting cold, and those of you who know National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation ~ "His eyes have frozen over..." Don't worry Mom ~ it wasn't that bad! :)

Santa Babies

Aren't we lucky to have the four cutest Santa Babies ever? They are from left to right: Gavin, Katelynn, Leo & Adri. How fun will Christmas be? :)

Oh Christmas Tree...

Well, Leo slept the entire time we could go and see Santa. So no pictures this Christmas, bummer. We put him in front of the Christmas tree at our house and let him play with one of his presents. He thought the loud paper was great! Wishing you and yours a very Merry Christmas!

Hi Uncle Eric!

Merry Christmas Uncle Eric! I can't wait until you come home and play with me! I love you!

Too Big!

Justin thought it would be cool to have Leo try to stand up. Yikes! He can do it by the couch without any help. He is getting way too big! The other picture is of him and his "girlfriend" Sabrina.

Team Becky

Our dear friend, Becky, is once again battling the horrid "C" word. To give her some much needed smiles, her daughter ordered shirts and created a book with pictures of her friends wearing the shirts. The front of the shirt says "Believe" and the back says "Team Becky, faith, strength, hope." Please keep Becky and her family in your prayers.

Leo 5 Months

Here are a few pictures of Leo in his 5th month. It's amazing to see how much he's grown! He's grown 6 1/2 inches and nearly gained 10 lbs! He is a chunky monkey! :)

Roll Over!

Leo has given up on rolling from his tummy to his back ~ that's old hat... He now rolls from his back to his tummy. In this video he has a hard time getting his arm out, but now does it like a pro! Soon we will have to baby proof! (But hey, he's more fun every day!)
