Boys 2008 Pix

Go Flaming Tigers!

Well, the little guy is growing up. Attached find a pix taken last month of Harrison for AYSO.

Twins - Summer 2007

Harrison's Update

Harrison has grown quite a bit since the beginning of the school year. He's now 55#'s & has lost quite a few teeth. He's doing very well in school & is excited about the end of the school year, so he can start travelling.

Noah & Elijah Update

Since I've last updated, the boys have began to walk (1/16/07), have 8 teeth each & are generally overall terrors (they LOVE to climb). Here are a few pix taken last Sunday of them at the park. As you can see, Noah has battlescars from constantly falling; he's angry & rude, but loves hugs & kisses (when he wants them). EJ is a bully towards Noah, but overall a big chicken, is mellow & the biggest goofball since HC. They're addicted to their ba's (pacifiers), eat everything in sight & are 100% boy (loud, rambunctious, etc.).

Off to 2nd Grade

Well, today was Harrison's first day of second grade in Ms. Lovret's class. He was a little nervous, but happy to see all of his old friends, especially Anthony.

Big Brother's Are the Best

Harrison is the best big brother. He's so patient & loving with them both. He will spend hours playing & entertaining them. He's honestly the sweetest, most loving child ever. A lady today told him to make sure he takes care of his brothers & he said, "I will always take care of them!"

Elijah

Noah - Aren't I Cute?

For the love of paper...

Toys. Smoyz. The boys prefer paper above all things. I've found that paper plates are the easiest on the palate.

Look at what we can do!

Elijah & Noah started holding their bottles last week. Yay! They've both grown so much! They are both 16lbs 8oz & are very happy babies. Elijah is now sitting up (with help) & has two teeth.

Boys Christening

Elijah & Noah are now men of God! LOL... The boys were christened today at the Moravian Church by Pastor Hopeton Clennon. Everything went smoothly, Elijah tried to grab the microphone & Noah looked shocked to be doused with water, but otherwise it went off without a hitch.

Here's a RARE picture of Ken (holding Elijah) & I (well, holding Noah).

New Pix of Harrison

Well, Harrison is really enjoying his summer break. He's been on quite a few field trips - Knott's Berry Farm, Zuma Beach, Adventure Playground, California Science Center, Natural History Museum, Petersen Automotive Museum - through his summer enrichment program, Santa Barbara with his dad & Bible Camp for a week thorough my church. He spent his 7th birthday, July 16th, with his bestfriend Anthony at Soak City (I forgot the camera) & had a blast. Here are a few pix of him taken over the summer - him in Santa Barbara with his "friend" Jordan (where he vacationed for a week), him dressed to the nines at his dad's wedding on 7/1/06, & at his t-ball trophy ceremony on 6/17/06.

Are they twins?

Noah

We get this question everytime we go out. Ken's new response is, "No, they're brothers". It's quite annoying & confirms Ken & my opinion that most people are idiots.
Anyway, we took the "twins" for there 4 month check up on May 12, 2006 & boy, have they grown. Elijah is now 13lbs, 4oz & 23-1/2". He's in the 95th percentile for weight & 75th percentile for height of an average 4 month old. He's huge!
Noah on the otherhand is 11lbs, 12oz & 22=3/4" & is right on target for a 2 month old, which technically he is since they were 2 months premature.
They've both started cooing & smiling. Elijah is a big goof-ball & both are chatter boxes. Noah, thank goodness, is no longer as fussy as he was in the first few months. They're both constantly chewing on their hands & can now turn on their sides. They are both on rice cereal due to their huge appetites & are sleeping about 7 to 8 hours at a stretch at night.
