Christmas!!

We went to Colorado Springs for Christmas and got a much needed break. Unfortunately all of us got sick at some point during the trip. Poor Samantha was so sick Christmas morning she fell a sleep before she could unwrap all her presents. We all received and gave some nice presents. Thank to all for the presents. Mike asked his girlfriend, Maritza to marry him and she said yes! We are really excited for them! It was Ammon's first Christmas and he had a great time.

He's on the move!!

Who looks like Who?





When you compare Ammon to Samantha and Luke now, he doesn't look like either of them, but I pulled out baby pictures for all of them around the same age and this is what I see. Luke and Ammon have the same nose and eye color. Sammy and Ammon have the same head shape. They all have the same ears. Ammon's hair is alot dark then the other ones. What do you see?

An eventful week

It's been forever since I posted and the things in this post happened a while ago, but I'm going to try and ketchup, yes I know it's spelt wrong.

The last week of August was a very eventful week for us. We started off the week with Luke's first day of school. He is now in first grade. Where have all the years gone? He has the same teacher he had for kindergarten. We are all so thrilled, including his teacher. 

Ammon turned 4 months on Aug. 29th, which means first taste of food. We started him on rice cereal. He still doesn't really know what to think of it. After 3 and a half months of colic he is doing so much better. I would say a night and day difference. He still gets fussy sometimes, but we are able to calm him down right away. He actually has a bed time. He has finally started to sleep better at night, watch I say that now and he is going to stop sleeping well. He is usually down by 8:30.

Alan turned 32 on Aug. 30th. I made him a nice meal and we had his favorite desert, cheesecake. I can't believe that he is so old. Just joking, I love him so much, he is such a blessing to have in our lives. Saturday night I was giving the kids a bath and found gum in Sammy's hair and had no choice but to chop it. It looks pretty good, but she wasn't to happy about it. I'm it's short because she never would let me fix it so at least it is out of the way.
