January

This girl is so funny.  I was bathing Max and she was watching us with her feet in the water, then she was standing in it, and little by little she kept getting in so when I took him out she tore her clothes off and jumped in. 

this is so mean I know but I just wanted to see if Max looked like any of his sisters... As soon as Ryan saw what I was doing he took it off.

Max is five weeks old in this picture and is still not a very good sleeper.  He still wakes up about every two hours.  He does good at eating and then going back to bed, but it is so hard to get up that many times a night. 

But when I see this precious little face it is all worth it.  How could you not just love this little man.  He is so sweet!

the last time we weighed him he was 10 lbs and he was 23 inches.  He is growing like a weed.  He has started to make a few baby sounds that are so cute, and he has laughed a little for Alexis. 

Adison is always on the go.  She keeps everyone very busy and loves to get into all the girls things.  Elizabeth has had it and doesn't think it is very cute that she will not leave her things alone so now we have to have the girls lock their doors if they are not in their rooms. 

Adison is so full of life and so happy.  She always tells me I look so beautiful, and when she gets dressed she says, "look at me, I am so pretty, I look like a princess!"  I love that she feels that way about herself and pray that she can keep that with her through her life.  I wish that for all my girls.  Because they are all so beautiful and they are princesses because they are daughters of a King, (our Heavenly Father)   Adison also has a obsession with "jackets."   Every day she has to wear some sort of sweater, cardigan or shrug over whatever she is wearing.   It is hard to get her out the door in something I want her to wear most of the time, but it is her style and she loves it.

Little Max LOVES his swing, and so does his mom!  It is so nice to be able to put him down and get a something done when he is being fussy.
