Little Boy Overalls

I have always loved little boys in overalls, so I couldn't wait to get Michael in a pair. He sure is growing fast, way to fast.

Morgan loves finally having a little brother. Here they are today on his blessing day.

Boyers Restaurant

Boyer's Restaurant is now open for dinner.
Several months ago we bought some pizza dough with intentions of letting the girls make their own pizza (A staple at the Boyer's house). We finally did it tonight and the girls had a blast making their own pizza's and a even greater time eating them. It was very nice not having whining because they didn't like what I cooked, because they made it and knew they would like it. Maybe they should cook dinner every night!!! They loved throwing their pizza's in the air just like they see on TV. What great chef's they are.


Alex decided that she didn't want any sauce or cheese on her pizza. What a tasty dough and olive pizza. She did eat it along with helping the rest of us eat ours.

Michael's Blessing Day

What a blessing he has been in our lives. It is great to have a new baby and the spirit they bring with them. We love watching the girls as they adore their baby brother. Alex is loving getting to be a big sister like her big sisters. They were all very excited for Michael to be blessed today. What a special day for our family to bless Michael Luke. We love our little family!!!!

Thank Heaven for Little Boys

It is hard to believe that Michael Luke is already 6 weeks old. He is growing so fast and starting to smile and recognize people!! At his 6 week checkup (we kind of skipped the 4 week because we were in California, so we got him in as soon as we got back) and he already weighed 10lb 3 oz. and is 23 inches long. That is a total of 2 lbs and 3 inches since he was born. He is being kind to his mom and already sleeping from 10:00 p.m. to 5:00 a.m. which I am loving!!! I hope that it does not change now the I have said it. Everyone better knock on wood for me. I headed back to work last week working about 2-3 days a week which has been going good. I sure miss this little boy, but I am a lot nicer to my kids when I get out a little. These are a few photos of our little man. 5 1/2 weeks

6 1/2 weeks. Love the outfit (so they do have some cute boy clothes. I was going through withdrawal of not having bows, dressed etc. but we are sure enjoying the blue/brown/airplanes/dogs etc for boys). He has dark blue eyes, just like Alex and a great head of hair.

the Nut Tree for the little kids

While visiting California we went to a great place called the Nut Tree. It was an amusement park for little kids which was great. All rides that they could ride. We went with Loralee, Barbie and their families and Grandpa Boyer and our little family. It was quite cold and humid, but the kids didn't care much because they were able to go on roller coasters, bumper cars, trains and more. Mazzy, Gavin and Hailey in the back of the rescue vehicle.
Alex and Sam riding their bike. You can tell that Alex was freezing, but not wanting to quit.

Alex and Chris, her best buddy, on the airplanes. It looks like Chris was having a better time than Alex. He was just a great sport to go on all the kid rides with them. What a great dad.

Chris and Sam in a head on collision with Morgain in the bumper cars.

Morgan is just like her mom. Can't go anywhere without the phone to talk to friends. She has made sure she stays in contact with her BFF Lexi Torbit. Lexi just happened to call while we were waiting to go on the bumper cars.

Grandpa Boyer and Alex on the roller coaster. This was on the way up. Her face was not quite as chipper on the way down and around the corners. She did love it and thought she was a big girl because she could go on the roller coaster just like her bigger sisters. Thanks grandpa for hanging out with us so that both girls could go on rides.

What cute little creatures. All the grand kids, but the 2 babies (Michael and Carter). This is a true picture. It sure is a circus with all the grand kids together. CRAZY!!!!!!!!!!!

Alex, Stefan, Sam and baby Michael on the train. Michael was probably the warmest out of all of us. I did enjoy the extra heater, that was the bonus of carrying the baby.

Gavin, Morgan and Alex on the Carousal. What kid doesn't like this.

Old Father Time

My family has a tradition of Old Father time. We put our shoes under the tree (or by the fire place this year) and Old Father Time comes and brings you some candy and a little gift to celebrate last year and the new year. This year we spent New Years in California with Chris's family who do not have this tradition. We decided that we would still continue the tradition with our kids this year. I kind of forgot all about it until mid afternoon Morgan saw a small 1 foot stuffed Christmas tree and asked Grandma if that was the only tree that she had and then continued, "So I guess we have to put our shoes under this tree". All of a sudden I realized what was suppose to happen that night and had to make a quick trip to target. Things were all ready for my family when we got home and then Morgan ran to get Grandma and Grandpa's shoe's to which I wasn't prepared. Thankfully grandma and grandpa had things around the house that we could grab and they were instructed to act surprised and play along. Thanks to everyone involved, Old Father time was a success this year, even away from home.

Ron, Margo and all our families shoes in front of the fireplace after Old Father Time had visited. The girls all got matching Sweat shirts which are coming in handy in this chilly weather. I got new Pajamas since I only packed one pair and Dad got new sunglasses since his just broke and they are truly a necessity traveling.
