Trunk or Treat

Yesterday, 10-26, was Central's Trunk or Treat and the kids had a great time! All the trunks looked amazing, including my parents who did Plinko! The kids enjoyed playing games, eating cotton candy and getting their face painted! Loved my two 50's girls, pirate boy and pumpkin baby!

Maddie's Artwork

Maddie carries around a spiral notebook that you can often find her drawing in! Here are a few of her recent entries:

Tinkerbell

A tomato and a duck

A bear, our family(ages included!) and Jesus on the cross

Packers

Green Bay played the other night, so daddy threw on his jersey, and threw the older two girls in some attire too! :)

Haylee Grace-4 months

Yesterday was Haylee's 4 month well-check and she continues to get great reports! Daddy and I are beyond pleased with her sweet girl's progress. Only a few short months ago, she was extremely sick. Now, she's rockin' and rollin' like any healthy 4 month old! 

At 4 months, you:

-weigh 15lbs 5oz (60%) and 25 inches (60%) with a small head (10%)

-wear a range of clothes due to your length. Most 3 month things don't fit unless its a dress. Typically, you wear 6 month outfits but a 9 month item has floated in from time-to-time.

-you nurse every 2-3 hours during the day with one cereal feeding now. At night, you are sleeping great....what I would consider, "all night"! Occasionally, you wake up...but nothing compared to our earlier months! 😊

-smiling all the time and we now get giggles and coos since you've discovered your voice!

-rolled twice from tummy to back but still working on the other way. For now, you lift up your legs and rock to your side, so I think we are almost there!

-reflux has gotten much better! You still spit up but it doesn't seem to hurt you as much and it no longer comes out your nose!

-we are about to have your hearing re-checked since you had a fail after the NICU. We will also get your eyes checked too but Dr. Smith doesn't anticipate anything bad.

Haylee Grace, you are such a special girl. Almost losing you, was the scariest moment of our lives. We praise Him for His healing powers and are forever grateful to have you here with us! Slow down now, baby girl! You are our last baby and we want to enjoy every moment of this "baby time" with you!

Church Softball

A few weeks ago, Haylee and I went out to watch daddy play church softball for Central. Papaw and Uncle Alan play too, so it was a lot of fun. A babysitter came to stay with the older three kids since it was past their bedtime!

Yesterland Farms

This past Sunday, we headed over to Yesterland Farms with our Sunday school class. It was our first time to go as a family and the kids were so excited! We all had a great time!
