Grandma Heath's Visit

We are so happy that Grandma Heath was able to visit our little family before Christmas. It meant so much to us that she was able to see Emeri in all of her cute littleness. We all know how fast our babies grow, so it was nice that Tammy was able to see Emeri when she was still so little. Looking back at these pictures though Tammy looks like she could be her mom! Tammy you look so young and smokin hot in these pictures. I hope I look even half as good as you do when I am your age. You look so good in fact that I put several pictures of you just to prove it. lol Okay not really, I just think all of Emeri's faces are so cute and funny and I couldn't decide which to put on. So I put all of them on.

 The weekend that Grandma Heath was here, we had a big family sleep over with Jared and Sereen! It was fun to be able to spend the whole weekend with them. We need to do that more often before we leave to Texas. Anywho, that Saturday we all took a walk up to Bridal Veil falls to work off the pumpkin pancakes we had that morning and to prepare for some AWESOME ribs made by Jared and Austin. The walk was really nice and once we got to the water fall we noticed that there was a new pond they had constructed where you can feed some fish. The boys of course loved that part.

 The gang before the walk! Sereen.....where did you get that adorable shirt from? It looks so good on you and fits you so well. lol The person who gave you that shirt must have such good taste, even though she never wore it for some silly reason. lol You look great!

 We forgot a blanket for Emeri so Austin had to use our nursing cover to block the sun, he looked attractively silly. What a good dad he is though.

 Grandma was so nice to give Isaac a biggie back ride almost the whole walk to the water fall. 

 Precious Family!

 Here is the new fish pond. We were so frustrated that we left our wallets in the cars because we didn't have any quarters to buy some fish food with.

 Andrew wanted so badly to touch the water, we finally let him.............

......and this is what he did. Laid right down on the wet rocks to touch it for about 2 seconds.

Austin claims this is where I informally proposed to him because I suggested that we take a walk to "Bridal Veil" falls when we were dating. I think he had forgotten that we brought Lanae with us. Yeah Austin, that is exactly what I was aiming for, a proposal with your sister hanging out with us. lol You little cheeky man. I am glad Lanae came though, it was so fun getting to know her and having her around while we were dating.

 Isaac asked me to put him on this fence and he did not like it. This was his face when I told him to say "cheese."

 This is what Andrew does when he says "co" meaning cold. It was so cute and smart. He knew that the water was cold even though he never touched the river water.

 That night we busted out the kinnect. It was great fun seeing Jared and Austin go at it with the boxing game and also Tammy with the bowling game. She killed us all at that game, what a natural. Here is little Andrew trying to copy Uncle Jared at the boxing game. (See video)

Fun Times in September

Here are some random pictures of the kids during the month of September. 

 Andrew kept blinking when the flash when off which made him look like this.

 Oh kisses for baby Emeri.

 A few weeks ago during our usual family trip to Walmart, Austin noticed that the Halloween stuff was already out. To help me with the shopping he took the boys over there to see how they would react. When he came back he said they were really scared at first, but after he told them that Superheros kill scary ghosts they were fine. So after that trip we make it a point to stop by the Halloween section to see all the holiday items. That of course was not good for my shopping habits; after seeing these two swords several times and convincing myself that $1.99 was totally doable I bought them. I figured using pool noodles as swords was getting old and that it was time the boys got some actual swords to play with. THEY LOVE THEM!!!

 Isaac likes to dramatically fall down after he gets "stabbed" and his enemy likes to get down with him for some moral support.

 The wide head bands are a little too big for her still. She looks like she is about to go work out.

 Our three little angels. 

 They look so much alike.

 Superhero Brothers: "To the rescue!"

 The damsel in distress was miraculously saved by two heroic, brave, and strong superheros.

 See, she looks like she is still in distress.

 Okay, so they look alike too.

 I love it when he gives me a genuine smile.

 Yeah, we don't look so much alike. I am totally okay with that.

A few days ago the boys were growling and acting like bears. Here are some pictures of them in mid-growl.

Here are the bears live! Caution: extremely dangerous and fierce. Do not whatsoever attempt to feed the bears, or let them loose. Their speed will shock you right out of your pants. 

Emeri at 2 months

Our little Miss is 2 months old now, 2 months old and still in new born clothes. Emeri's height at her 2 month app was 22 and 1/2 inches, a half an inch taller then the boys were when they were born. lol She is just a precious PETITE pretty princess for sure. She weighs 9 lbs. 3 oz. and sleeps a good 5-7 hours a night for me. She smiles all the time now and can sit in the bumbo chair all by herself. In all of these photos I put her in 0-3 month outfits because I was so bored with the few newborn ones she has. So although she is drowning  in her clothes it was fun for me to see her in something new.

 Her jeans kept riding up so they looked like high waters on her.

 This is Emeri's scared look.

 She still cheats on tummy time, this is her face while she lazily attempts to work out her back muscles.

 Here are the many faces that Emeri can have during a one minute photo shoot.

"Mom, what the heck is holding me up if you are standing in front of me."

 "Oh Oh Oh! Smiling, I know that trick, pick me pick me."

"Como! Say what?"

"Use the force Luke""
