Tate

My boys know that if they get something on their clothes like  dirt, food, whatever it is, they have to put it ontop of the washing machine instead of the laundry basket.  I like to know what i need to put stain remover on without having to examine every item of clothing before putting it in the machine. So Tate put his jacket on top the machine cause it had dirt all over it. (I think he may have actually been rolling around in the dirt on the playground) Anyways I picked it up, It was so heavy. I'm like what in the world is in this kids pockets? Well here were the contents of his pockets, along with a whole lot of dirt... 

Tates also really into coloring and drawing. Hes pretty good too. Heres a lovely picture he drew for me on my counter. They are turkey's out of his hand... in case you couldn't tell...

People keep telling me that the middle child seems to be forgotten more and can later act out. Now that Tates the middle child...I really don't know what in the heck they're talking about.  I could never forget my Tater. He wouldn't let me if I tried.

I love this little man, Even when he's being his crazy self.  He really is one of the sweetest little boys ever.

He is a mamas boy and loves his mama, and tells me constantly. I'm not complaining tho. I love it...

  He loves EVERYBODY, and when he meets you, your his instant bestfriend.  

If you try to leave, he WILL come running after you screaming that he needs a hug and kiss. 

We ordered some food the other night, the delivery boy was probably 21ish, as soon as i opened the door Tate ran and hugged his legs.

He loves his brothers so much. Kenden and Tate are so so close. I hope they stay that way always. 

The batteries in Bradys swing went dead. I was doing some hair so I was having Tate push him whenever it stopped. It was so cute.  Even tho Tate was busy coloring, whenever i would ask him to push brady, he'd jump right up and say shore.  Well I guess he got tired of getting up and down cause he started pulling the swing towards the couch where he was sitting. When I asked him what he was doing, he told me he needed to have Brady close so that he could take better care of him.

Hes always willing to stop whatever he's doing, to put Brady's "pinky" in. 

We went on a walk awhile ago and Kenden found this baby inch worm. (aka caterpillar) and gave it to Tate. 

It then became Tates bestfriend. He carried it the whole walk. We kept telling him that he had to put it down before we got back into the truck. He kept saying that the baby inch worm would miss him so much if he left him out here.

He screamed and cried when I finally made him put him down. I felt really bad...

mean mommy!

New Blog

Just wanted to let anyone who reads my blog know, that my sister, cousin, and I started a new blog. Between the 3 of us we have so many craft and sewing projects going on. We wanted a place to put them all. We just started, but theres already a few posted. So heres the blog address http://www.jackandlulugobanana.blogspot.com/. Check it out! 

This has got to be one of the cutest faces I've ever seen!

 Don't let these sweet faces fool you.

                                                  This is the real Tate and Kenden

Oh Tater!

Oh boys

I wasn't sure if I should be hurt,offended, or laugh! I was sitting at the table sewing, while Kenden and Tate were sitting underneathe it playing (a game they named "Sheep and Shepard, and a wolf too") Tate was the sheep and Kenden was the Shepard and they started talking about a wolf. So I started doing my best wolf howl. Kenden says to me "MOM STOP! you don't make a good wolf sound. go make your fabric kind of stuff, that's what your good at!" I mean... When did he get such an attitude!

Then Tate, today when I was talking to him. Just looks at me and says, "I just have no idea what your talking about..."

HALLELUJAH!

We have internet again! I have a ton of things to post about, but we'll see how far we get. First of all BRADY! He is such a sweet boy and we are so blessed to have him in our family. He is a really good baby. Hardly ever cries, and when he does you really have to listen. The boys love him to death. They are also so helpful, they put his bink in, get me diapers or blankets, whatever he needs. They actually fight over who gets to be the most helpful. My labor was really long with Brady. My water broke at in the middle of the night, and contractions completely stopped. I went up to the hospital and they put me on pitocin. My contractions were progressing perfectly, but I wasn't dialating very fast. When my water broke, i lost alot of fluid, like alot. I looked like 2 months smaller. When I was having contractions Brady's heartrate kept dropping. They thought maybe I lost too much fluid, and there wasn't enough cushion in there. So they started flushing fluids back up. It didn't work and i had to repeatedly keep changing positions to see if that would help. Finally when he came out they relized he had the cord wrapped around his neck. So everytime i contracted it tightened around his neck. He cried a little bit, then stopped and just looked around. I got to hold him for just a minute then they rushed him off, cause they were worried. He ended up being just fine, but the fact that he didn't cry very much and his feet and hands were really blue, worried them. He also had a giant bruise on his chest and one on his arm. I'm not sure what caused them. I stayed up in the hospital for an extra day, just to have some more alone time with the lil guy. Because of flu procautions I couldn't have any visitors only Eric. So I had a pretty quiet couple days. I have to say I enjoyed staying in the hospital and would have stayed longer if I could have. I really enjoyed being taken care of and not having to do a single thing, but care for Brady. My mom came up the minute I told her i thought i'd being having him. so she really helped out with the boys. She also brought my niece Chloe and my lil brother Joshua so the boys were fully entertained. I don't think they missed me too much. When I came home I think that i tried to do too much. wasn't resting enough. I got sick and a breast infection, for those who haven't had one. It's absolutely horrible. Body aches over my whole body, chills, migraine, plus my left breast was flaming red and hurt to touch it. They didn't put me on any antibiotics cause I didn't ever run a high fever. I was on bedrest tho. I seemed to get better after a couple days, and was good for about a day. Then all of a sudden it hit me again worse than the first time. They put me on antibiotics this time and i started feeling much better. This was such a hard time cause not only was i feeling like complete crap, my mom had left a day before I got sick, so I had to care for Kenden and Tate too while being on bedrest. Tate also, was extra mischievious during this time! It was NOT fun! I'm just so thankful Brady was such a good boy, and was happiest just laying by himself in his little bassinet. Anyway I'm sure I missed something there, but moving on... Brady started smiling at 6weeks, he rolled over for the first time when he was just over 2 months. He talks alot and is so so close to giggling. I have a bunch of pictures here, there not in any particular order and I'm not even gonna give a caption for each one. theres some of his bedroom, it's changed a lil now since these pics were taken but I love his bedding. Big Thanks to Erics mom Polly for making me the curtains. Theres also one of Brady and my good friend Kristens baby boy Alex, they are only 3 weeks apart, Alex being older. And another of My new niece Eliza Jean, JJ and Mary's new girl. They are exactly 4 weeks apart, Brady being older. I think its so cute cause they are so close and there names are so cute said together. Brady Dean and Eliza Jean!!!
I have a ton more pictures that I want to post, but there on my phone so I will post those soon. If you read this whole post! Wow!!!
