Zane's Bumbo Experience...

We recently got out the Bumbo seat for Zane...and after a few minutes in it, this is how we found him:

Our Big Little Man

Zane had his 2 month check-up today...he weighed in at 11 pounds 7.5 ounces and measured 23 1/4" long! We are praising God for a wonderfully healthy little boy!

Firsts...

I love to keep track of all of thge "firsts" for the girls...and Zane, (Okay, must take a slight side trip here...it's so hard not being able to just say "girls" anymore!) Anyway, Kaesyn had a first yesterday...her first haircut! She did great! Joyce just trimmed it up a little bit...nothing major:) And as I'm posting this, I realize I didn't take an after picture, bummer...

Please Don't Feed Fingers to the Horses...

...Always a good rule, but ESPECIALLY at The Land of Little Horses which is where we went on Sunday since the girls absolutely LOVE anything to do with horses. They had so much fun grooming and feeding the horses! They also got to take a pony ride, which was probably a highlight for each of them. The weather was gorgeous and we had a wonderful day having fun as a family! We must have looked very relaxed and at ease b/c someone even came up to us and told us that we made having four kids look easy! We kind of just chuckled about that later:)

*Notice the cowgirl hats have made yet another comeback...the girls LOVE these things! As soon as we told them where we were going, they immediately went for the hats:)

Zane's first horse ride:) Okay, so he didn't really "ride" but it still counts for something...Okay so Jared will prob kill me for posting this pic...but I just had to, it's so funny! (I'm just glad he didn't get any pics of me trying to lasso those bull horns:)It was way harder than it looks!

All I want for Christmas is my 2 front teeth...

That's what Taegan will be singing this year:) She FINALLY lost those 2 front teeth that hung on all summer!

My Little Man...

Zane is growing up so fast! I don't know, with him being the last, I was hoping time would go by slower so I can really enjoy the baby stage...but it seems to be flying by! We took him to Penney's for a photo session which didn't quite turn out as expected (long story), so I took pics of what I wanted myself.

Check out those baby blues:) Let's hope he keeps them!!Zane is 2 months old now!!!

School Days

Taegan started first grade this year...where has the time gone?!? She was looking forward to the first day of school weeks before it got here! Every year I make a sign for the first day of school...Jared is a little embarassed by it, but I'm thinking I will want that picture for my scrapbooks! He jokingly said that the girls will be seniors and still carrying a sign...and who knows...maybe they will:)

Taegan and her friend, Lindsay, had on the exact same dress and headband for the first day. They got lots of giggles about having the same outfit on:)These are Taegan's best friends: Ella Hixon, Grace Hilsher, Tae, Haley Witmer, and Lindsay Nicklas. We are so thankful Taegan has such wonderful friends!!

Jaelyn started K4 this year, she goes Tuesday and Thursday all day. She was very excited for school as well!

We can't wait to see what Jaelyn will learn this year and who her best friends will be:)

I'm Back!!!

After a brief blogging hiatus, I am back:) We have been crazy busy trying to get in some sort of routine with the start of school and all that comes with that, as well as the start of cheerleading for Taegan.

Since I never finished blogging about the beach...I'll just post some of my favorite pics.

We rented this suri 2 mornings and had an absolute blast! We had so much fun riding on the boardwalk and did lots of laughing as a family! What great memories!!

My 2 men:) Zane looked adorable in his swim trunks...thanks Aunt Tish!

Jaelyn wanted to be a mermaid:)

What a fun time at the beach!!!
