Squirt turns 4!

Squirt had a good birthday. We just relaxed all day. I took him to Chick-fil-a for lunch and let him play forever! Then after dinner we had cake/ice cream and PRESENTS!

I'm 4!


Cake!!


Daddy went over board and got him every "How to train your Dragon" toy they had at the store. This weekend we're going to go see the movie!

He also got a swim suit, new shoes and sandals from Grandma and Grandpa Dial.

On Saturday we had a birthday party at the park with Grandma and Papa Mortensen, Aunt Emily and Uncle Dan and Morgan, Brooklyn, Lauren and Logan and Uncle Michael.


He got an I-Spy game from aunt Emily, "How to train your Dragon" books, pajama's and shirt and some other clothes from Grandma and Papa Mortensen and Daddy busted out another gift- a tonka truck!
Here are all the big boys oohing and aahing over the tonka truck. It was pretty funny when we all noticed what was happening. I tried to sneak a picture but my other brother in law stepped out of the picture right as I took it.

Squirt came to me the other day and informed me that he had changed his mind. He wanted a baby brother now, not a sister. So does anyone know of somewhere that will handle this for me? Maybe I can just go and trade Ladybug for a boy model?

How can you not love this little face?

More Smiles

I finally caught more smiles this time!

This is seriously all we do all day (all 4 of us)- we just sit and try and get her to smile, we're oohing and ahhing and making all kinds of un-human sounds and making crazy faces. It's so fun.

Just when we thought we couldn't love her more...

She went and did this:

(that's the tail end of a really big smile, just in case you can't tell!)

and melted our hearts all over again:)

1 month!

Ladybug is already one month old! (Well last week actually, I'm just really behind on things these days!)

She has grown so much. We weighed her on the Wii (we even made her her own little Mii, it's too cute) and she weighed in at exactly 10lbs. (gained 1 1/2 lbs) and she measured 21 1/2 inches long (grew 2 1/2 inches!)

Of course Squirt had to be a part of the photo shoot!

Here she is all dressed up for church (and not real happy about it). People are always making wierd comments about the flowers. Like they are trying to be nice, and they think they are "so cute" but in a really condescending voice. Oh well, I love them and she's mine and I will do what I want with her:)

Unfortunately, that's the only photo's I have of her. I find myself suffering from 3rd child syndrome, as in could care less about the camera. I'll try and do better!
