Graham 9 Months

Graham is such a sweet easy going little guy. He has 6 teeth and loves to scoot around in a circle. He doesn't propel forward yet, but can manage to roll and twist to get things close by. He sits and plays and is getting quite heavy!!! 
His stats-
Height: 2'4''-43%
Weight: 21lb-72%
Head: 17.6- 42%
He got his first haircut in December since his hair sticks straight out. He is lovingly referred to as, "Fuzzy duck." We get comments on his hair everywhere we go. He is a pretty content baby and loves to observe. He is starting to get more wiggly so you know he will be moving shortly! He is turning into quite the mama's boy, unless daddy is around. Then he tends to be more of a daddy's boy! He loves to play with his siblings and loves to get in their way. He is such a sweet little guy. He sleeps most of the night waking up usually once towards the morning. Sometimes even all the way through! He is starting to hold his bottles on his own too. We love our squishy boy!

1st Snow!

We got our first snow last week. The boys got up and out the door by 7:30 because they wanted to help shovel and play! They are only this excited for the first snow! There was not enough to snowblow so Dan was not as happy, but he was happy we had cleaned out the garage enough that he can park in it! 













Tree Decorating

The kids had fun setting up the kid tree with all the sentimental ornaments on it. I always love going back through all the ornaments the kids have made and given us. 




Tree #2! It didn't feel like Christmas with no tree upstairs. We hardly saw the one downstairs. We didn't last long before picking up a second tree. 




1st part of December Randoms

One of my favorite traditions as a family is to hunt down houses with the best Christmas Lights. We have several that have become ones we go to every year. We just cram in the warm car and drive around with Christmas music blaring. It is so much fun for me! 






 Making paper snowflakes.

 More PJ masks
 These little brothers are getting so cute. They were even playing catch today on the floor. So fun to see Nate being a big brother!
 Millie's new way to sleep, under the curtain.
 Hung up our new family pictures finally!
 We tried to win a trip to Disney through Levi's orthodontist office, didn't win, but it was worth a shot!!!
 He got on his first chain! Wahoo!
 This little elf is 9 months and getting so big! His bright blue eyes, snuggly personality, sweet little smile, and fuzzy duck hair just melt my heart!

 With Dan gone at school for Tuesdays and Thursdays, we have had lots of nights to get creative and kill some time till bed to help pass time. This night we made homeade pizza for dinner. They loved it!

 Poor Millie
 Levi had a really rough day. He got kicked in the face playing football at recess and had a HUGE fat lip and a black eye if you look closely. Then not much later on our walk, he fell on his scooter and scrapped up his face really good. He looked so beaten up! It was sad.

 He is staring to spin and scoot. He is tucking his knees under and has started to army crawl. It kills me that he is getting that big!!!!

 Watching the Christmas devotional

 Dan's sister sends an advent calendar for them every year and they love opening up the day to see what it is. They get to decorate tress, snowmen, make snowflakes, watch videos, puzzles, and more. It is always fun for them!

Gingerbread Houses

After the Layton lights, the kids begged to do their Gingerbread houses. We were going to do them Sunday night, but gave in. So we dug in after their ice cream. Let's just say they had way too much sugar that night! 
Love the little photo bomber in this pictures:)
