Happenings in our Home

WOW!!!  Life has been like a crazy whirlwind these last few weeks.  I feel like it was just Halloween and now we are knocking on the door of Christmas.  Both of our poor boys have been sick since before Thanksgiving.  They have this sinus junk that they can't shake.  So they are currently on breathing treatments, Matthew 3 times a day and Landon twice a day.  There is an hour and half of my day right there, snuggling those sweet boys and doing treatments. 

McKenzie was in her first Christmas program at school.  She and one other girl from her class had speaking parts.  She got to talk into a microphone and was so excited about it.  When she was telling me about rehearsal one day on the way home from school she said, "Mom I get to talk into a real life microphone.  It's like my dream come true!"  It was so precious!  She did a great job with her one line!  I can't believe that this week will finish up her first half of her kindergarten year.  Time is flying by and seems to be picking up speed everyday.  McKenzie is a great help with Matthew.  She feeds him and plays with him.  She is just like a second mother, even mixes bottles for me!  She is growing up so fast too.  The end of November she lost her 1st tooth! 

Landon, when he is not attached to the breathing machine, loves to help me in the kitchen!  He is the best little helper in there.  He stirs and dumps stuff in, shakes, and mixes!  And, of course, he always gets to sample and taste!  He is so sweet and funny.  He loves Matthew but sometimes is a little too rough with him!  He has really taken an interest in trains lately and loves everything about them.

Matthew continues to hold his own as he continues to grow!  He is now 3 months and about to be in 9 month clothes.  Today, he wore Landon's Christmas outfit because it will not fit him next week.  It was a stretch today, literally!  He is such a good baby.  He only cries when he is really hungry!  He has been sleeping through the night very well.  I'm looking forward to starting him on cereal in a few weeks.  I can't wait to see how he likes it!

 


I love this picture!  Landon is playing right by Matthew and the blanket that Matthew is wearing Landon covered him with.  So sweet!
