Tummy Time and other pictures

G2 has a black eye right now (actually it's almost gone). What happened is--G1 knocked her down (not sure if it was on purpose or not) and she hit our bed frame. Poor girl--it looked so bad. She looked like she had dark purple eye shadow on.

This is G3's "CHHHEEEESSSEE" face.


The "big" G's love playing in G4's swing--I'm not sure how to convince G1 that he really is too big though (this is G2 by the way)

This is one of the few times that G4 did not throw fit about having tummy time. I've never had a child throw as big of a fit as she does about being on their tummy. Of course I think it helped that G3 was sitting/laying with her, playing with her.

Yesterday we went down to Mom's (Grammy's). G1 has a new friend--it is the "Chief" that she has on her front porch. G2 (in blue) and G3 (in pink) were a little apprehensive about him though.










G4 yelling at me

G4's favorite thing is her swing. If nothing else (including nursing) will make her happy we know we can put her in her swing and she'll be fine. It's so cute; sometimes she gets so excited, her little feet get kicking so much.



I can't believe how big all the Gs are getting. G1, 2 and 3 have all caught up (mostly) to the size of other kids their age. The are all talking so much. We are starting to understand a lot of what G2 and G3 are saying. When they are getting along they are so much fun. I love that they can all communicate their wants and needs to us so well. G4 is smiling and "talking" so much. She only laughs a little bit; me and the girls are the only ones she's laughed for so far (that I know of). She is wearing mostly 3-6 month clothes and she's not 2 months old yet!! They all love each other so much. It's wonderful.

Oh, a big milestone for me--yesterday before going to Mom's; I took the 4 Gs to the grocery store all by myself (Matt was with Poppy) and other than getting back in the Mountaineer, it went really smoothly. I was so excited to know that I can do it. (Not that I really doubted that I would be able to...)

  1. G4 is so stinkin' cute!!! I can't believe how old she looks, just so "with it," you know? I love the pics of the kids with the Indian, too, that is a cool friend to have.

  2. I love the picture and posts as always but I wanted to write and say thank you for Aiden's goody bag. She loved it and hasn't taken the hat off since we got home from church. She has her bottle of water chilling in the fridge so it is ready when she gets up from her nap. Kids are funny!
