One year older...

My sweet little boy turned 7 yesterday. I can't believe have fast it really has gone by. I hear it all the time but it really does go by fast. In fact I told Will to leave Jordan alone cause he is only 5. He corrected me and told me he was 7. I almost started to cry. He is my baby!!!! And I want him to be my baby forever. I can remember finding out that I was going to be a mommy and being so excited I was to tell the world. I remember bringing him home and feeling at a total loss at what to do. I had watched other peoples babies and cared for them but this was MY baby and a whole new ball game. In fact I held him all the time. Afraid that if I let go something bad might happen. I would sit in the chair to feed him and then let him nap on me and I would nap in the chair I hardly ever put him down. Will's mom came to help and I cried when she took him from my arms and told me to take a nap. I took his baby blanket with me and cried myself to sleep. (I love this kid!!!) Will and I wanted him to have everything he needed so for a good month we slept in the living room just in case he need the swing or bouncer or whatever in the middle of the night. We were crazy for that baby!! We still are. He is amazing.

I wish I could hold him all day still and keep him safe from the world (his brothers and sister too) but I can not. I must teach him and prayer with and for him that he will make right chooses and grow up to be just like his Daddy! Here are some pictures to enjoy! Me and my 7 year old One of my favorites of them. Jordan is 2 and Kenzie is 7 months My favorite picture of me and Jordan. He is 9 months He reminded me of Bob in this picture. He is about Bob's age here. In fact Bob wore that shirt yesterday LOVE his sweet face. This reminds me that he loves to help and is willing to help others.

I am so glad I am his mommy and only hope I can give him all he needs to return to our Heavenly Father. I want him to be able to say I know this cause my Mother taught me. To be able to know right from wrong cause I taught him. And when face with a choice to choose the right because I will pop in his head and he wouldn't wanted to disappoint me. I love him more then words can say. I love you doesn't even begin to say it. He has part of my heart a part that will always be his no matter what! When his sister came 19 months later I didn't know that I could love a baby as much as I do him but I do! All the kids have a part of my heart and it grows every time a new baby comes and my ability to love expanses it's amazing!

In my free time...

Thanks to FB (that would be facebook for all you non-facebookers) I connected with a friend I hadn't talked to in years. It was nice to reconnect. We meet 15 years ago and lost touch some how. Anyways I was asked what I do in my free time. And I laughed thinking I don't have much with 4 kids running around but I answered "scrapbook, take pictures and plan vacations." But now thanks to Bob you can add have mild heart attacks, got to ER or urgent care, clean blood (LOTS of blood) and clam older brother down who thinks Bob is going to go into a coma (not sure why he thinks that)


So Bob did it again he cut his head open remember this. That was only 3 months ago I wasn't ready to do that again. He stayed awake this time and thought the blood was funny. He would look in the mirror in say "oh red lots of red blood"
He tripped over Jordan's leg and hit the couch. It bleed a lot and took him in to nextcare. They super glued it and sent us home. I hope I don't have to do this again but if I do I hope he gives me a little more time to breath like maybe a year or more....

Before we went in. I kind of cleaned it up
The cut cleaned and super glued
With the band aid.

This boy of mine is CRAZY!! I can't believe that the couch did that and not the million other things he climbs and jumbs off of.

Party!!

6 months

Today the baby turns 6 months. Time as really gone too fast! He is growing up too fast and I need to find some way to slow time! I love him so much he is just so fun. He smiles all the time and rolls all over the place. He will roll from one side of the room to the other.
He also LOVES his big brother Bob they play and laugh at each other. Bob will laugh then Henry I love it! He still has crazy monkey hair and it's still dark. His eyes are blue or green depending on what he is wearing. He also loves to play with his feet and sticks he tongue out.

Here are just a few pictures for you! Me finally getting to hold him (about 40 minutes after he was born and kissing him for the 1st time) I got super sick right after this and had to wait about an hour or so to hold him again. Looking at this picture made me cry and relive that whole day all over again. It was very scary and not to mention painful without drugs but I would do it over and over again to have this sweet boy in my family!
My purple baby. This too makes my heart hurt to think he wasn't getting any air. But it reminds of Heavenly Fathers love for us as well. I felt his love for me that day!
Love his smile!!
I love that he puts his feet up to relax with taking a bath
My big 6 month old!! I like his expression here!
