1 Month!

Can you believe this little lady is already a month old?

She is such a dolly, doll! I can't imagine my life without my Roman Noodles.

She is not sleeping through the night. Which by this point both Kenedy and Lincoln were ( I know that is not usual, but we got used to it). She does sleep for at least three hours and for as long as six hours (We love those nights).

She weighs 6 lbs. 6 ounces! She has grown almost two pounds!

She is eating 3 ounces every three hours. She loves to be held and her bouncy chair. She recognizes her mommies voice, which makes me so happy!

She is starting to smile. Could she be any cuter?

Romnee at 2 weeks

Romnee is such a good baby! At two weeks I took her into the doctor and her stats are:

Weight: 4 lbs 15 oz.

Height: 18.5 inches

Everyone keeps asking me if I am going crazy with three kids. I feel busier, but she is so good that I don't feel crazy. I am sure the craziness will set in when she wakes up more often. I will pray that it doesn't! We love having her in our home. The kids love having a sister! I feel so blessed to be the mom of three. Thanks to all my birthmoms that have made this possible!

Snow Much Fun!

My Favorite Thing About Christmas: FAMILY

On Christmas morning we got up and opened presents at home. Lincoln loved his car and Kenedy loved her vanity. We had to give some of Lincoln's presents to him in the car to unwrap because he did not want to get out. After the kids opened presents home we headed to the Webb's for breakfast and more presents. The rest of the day we just hung out at the Webb's and played with toys and played Rock Band. Mike's parents spent Christmas in California with Mike's brother. We missed them alot, but it was nice to have a low key day after getting up with a baby.

This Christmas I was reflecting on the blessings in my life. It brings me to tears when I think that four years ago at this time Mike and I were wishing and praying to start a family. Four years ago Kathleen told us that we were going to be parents. Four years ago it was just Mike and I. WE ARE SO BLESSED! I can't stop crying.

December Happenings

Eventhough this December was a little crazy due to the fact the we added another precious member to the family, we still managed to squeeze a few of our favorite Christmas traditions in.

Not a tradition, but fun with Grandma and Papa. While Mike and I were in the hospital holding sweet Romnee. This is what Grandma and Papa were doing with the Kids at the Condo. Thanks Mom and Dad for coming with us to St. George so our kids could be with us. We love and appreciate you so much!

Kenedy has loved going to preschool with her friends! The ladies that I teach with are amazing! It was my turn to teach in December. As soon as I heard about sweet Romnee they all got together and rearranged things so I would not have to worry about preschool. They even planned and carried out the Christmas program and party that I was in charge of! Thanks so much. That relieved so much Stress!

Kenedy started dance again back in September. She loves to Dance and she loves to perform! She had a short Christmas recital in December. She did a good job. However, Mike and I started wondering if we had picked the wrong hobby for her when all she wanted to do was stand and pose for the camera rather than dance with the other girls. It was pretty funny to watch! We love this little lady!

My mom was in charge of the Moss Family Christmas party this year. She did a fabulous job! the theme was: The Polar Express. We wore PJ's (well some people did), had Chocolate Chip Pancakes, hot cocoa, built chocolate trains, watched the Polar Express, and visited with family that we do not see enough. Good job mom, the party was a success! That same weekend my mom had the grandkids over for a sleepover that was also Polar Express themed. They built candy trains, and cardboard trains, watched the Polar Express in their Cardboard trains, and had chocolate chip pancakes and hot cocoa for breakfast. The kids were in heaven and can't wait for next year. Either can Mom and Dad (ha ha)!

We did a few more things this Christmas that I forgot to take pictures of:

Went to see Christmas Lights

Had a Red and Green Dinner

Forgotten Carols

Eclipse Concert

Weber State Concert

Wrote Letters to Santa

Made Christmas Crafts

Neighborhood Christmas Party

We love Christmas time and all the fun family activities that come with it!

October and November

Did anyone one notice I just skipped right over October and November? Well I have a good reason, our November and December pictures somehow got erased. Isn't that the saddest? So the three pictures below are the only pics I have of Halloween. We did celebrate the Holiday and I did take pictures. Really cute pictures, but they are all gone. So if anyone took pictures of my cute kids, would you please email them to me? PLEEEEEEEEEEEEASE?

Thanks Jen for taking a picture of my little Man.
Lincoln was the best Spider Man. He would throw his let webs and make a "whosh" sound. He has a sound for everything. It is hilarious!

This Little Man Turned 18 months in October and now goes to nursery. He did really well the first day and struggled the next few weeks. He has now figured out that Mom and Dad will eventually come back and is doing lots better. He has a little cry when we drop him off and then calms down and has fun.

I can't believe how fast he has grown. I feel Like he just entered our family and now he is walking and talking. He has such a calm personality. He is not a performer for anyone but Mom and Dad. He hates to get in trouble and is very good at obeying. He is so loving and kind. He will come up and give me kisses and hugs. We can't get enough of this little guy.
