Too much fun!

My sweet, sweet Gabriel was resting peacefully he is room, dreaming of snakes, snails, and puppy dog tails...that's what I thought anyways. I went to his room to wake him thinking "Wow, that is quite a long nap my boy is taking!" I opened the door to find this:

Not only did he take the books out, he took the bookshelf apart---we still haven't found all the pieces yet. Little stinker.

The other night the 4 boys made my nice big living room a ROUGH HOUSE. I think Daddy lost this round.

You should have heard the giggles from all 4 of them. It was precious. Now, if I can only get Dad to stop starting this 10 minutes before bedtime all will be good!!!

Need more food!!!

My angel girl went in for her 6 month appointment yesterday. The doctor said she is just perfect. Josie had 6 shots and an oral vaccination (bless her bones) but she stopped crying as soon as I picked her up. She is always such a good baby!!! The only minor issue is that Josie has only gained 7 oz since her last appointment in mid-August. That is not so good. The doc really isn't worried, he said let's wait and see what happens. In a month she'll go back in for a weight check and her second dose of flu vaccine. In the meantime since Josie is 6 months, she can start baby fruits and veggies so hopefully this will help but some weight on her. Here are some pics of Josie eating her rice cereal, yum, yum. Isn't she gorgeous??

A Tiger Trouncing

Awesome! My Missouri Tigers beat Nebraska 41-6 last night on National TV. (thanks to ESPN, I loved watching my Tigers in HD!!!) It was a great game, they looked so good! I am still on a high. I don't know if anyone is going to take us serious yet, we will have to wait and see about that. I'm proud of my boys. MIZZOU-RAH!!! And check out our littlest Mizzou fan:

September leftovers

I had a few pictures to share from September that didn't make it into other posts. They are too cute not to be shown. Kaden and Gabriel being silly at Luke's soccer game:

Luke brought over his teammates to see Josie. Luke said "Look it's a girl-baby!" The other boys were yelling at their parents "There's a girl-baby over here!! Awesome!" It was really cute.I don't really know what Kaden is doing here, but it was funny. An interesting way to watch a soccer game. What a view I had huh?Cute pic Daddy and Luke. Playing at the church park after the game.

Gabriel wanted to go with Daddy and Luke to the bus stop one day before school. It was so adorable with his little backpack on!

Last but not least, some more out-like-a-light photos. (doesn't Kaden look incredibly old in this picture?? I can't stand it!!!) Now I think I'm caught up in blog world. New posts to come soon. :)

6 Months Old!

Can you believe it?! This Momma certainly can't. Where did the time go? Where did my little baby go? From this:
To this:

What can I say to you today angel girl? You have changed my life. I have always wanted a sweet girl, always wanted to have a daughter. I craved some pink in my life after my 3 perfect blues. And now you are here and I can't imagine what it was like without you. You are my ray of sunshine. I have been blessed with 4 gorgeous and wonderful children. I thank God for each of you everyday. Today we celebrate you Josie. We waited for you for a long time and now you seem to be growing up so quickly. But know this, no matter how fast the years go, you will always be my baby girl.

---------------------------------------------------------------

We put Josie in the play saucer for the first time the other night. She loved it! At first she wasn't too sure but then those little feet started-a-kicking:

(Poor girls got her Momma's mouth, huh? And ears for that matter!!!)
This was me around the same 6 months as Josie Claire.

Six Flags: The Rides

Our Saturday continued. Here's Luke planning out our day, that boy LOVES maps. Lots of ride photos to follow:

Sweet baby girl didn't get to ride anything but she still deserve to be in the post! What an angel she was. It was a fun full day and our boys were sacked out! Check out Gabriel and Kaden:

Six Flags: The Characters

We went to Six Flags over Texas last Saturday with some good friends of ours. We had so much fun. Just like at SeaWorld the kids were amazingly good, we're so proud of them. The day at the park went from 10 when it opened until 9 at night! They were great and had the best time too! I'll go ahead and spread out these pics too. This post is for all the character shots, they are super cute!

Batman and Green Lantern were right there as we entered the park. I don't know who was more excited, my little boys or my big boy:

Luke wasn't too sure about this scary guy, he was standing like a statue and was scaring adults when they walked by, as odd as it is to read--he was really great with the kids and tried not to scare them, he talked to them, it was cool. Nice as he was though, he was very creepy looking, Luke barely got in the photo with him. Afterwards any time we walked by him Luke would say "Hey buddy!" and wave like crazy. That kid is so funny.

Here's some old favorites:

(wow--that's lots of little boys!!!) Here's more Superhero stuff:
