I can't believe that my last baby is already 6 months old! Time just goes way too fast especially when you are trying to make every second count! So, he weighs 16lbs. 3oz. and is in the 30th percentile for weight. He is 25 1/4 inches tall and in the 5th percentile for height. His head circumference is in the 20th percentile. He is growing and learning all the time. He is finally rolling over and is starting to sit up. He laughs so cute and loves to laugh and giggle at his big brothers and sisters. It is so darling. He loves to be held and snuggled so he does cry more than necessary. :) (That was a nice way of saying he can be quite fussy.) But I don't mind most of the time because I love snuggling him! And he's my last! I have to snuggle as much as I can! We call him our little owl because when he talks he says, "whoooo, whoooo" in a low voice. It is so cute. Here's a picture of him doing it. We have also tried giving him rice cereal: He doesn't like it. :) We love this little baby. He is the BEST surprise we have ever and will ever have!
Here are some pictures from this year! Finally! There's only 2 months left in 2011!

First Day of 2nd Grade for the Triplets! (We almost missed it because I thought school started on Wednesday and not Monday. It's a good thing we go to church and I found out the day before!)
ASPEN: In the car ride home from vacation, I turned around and scared Aspen with a "Roar". She screamed, laughed, then said, "Momma, roar me again!" *****We called Grandma around 9:00pm to tell her Happy Birthday. Aspen said it really quietly. We told her to say it louder, but instead she said, "I just really want to go to bed." *****We were shopping for clothes for Uncle Cam's wedding and Aspen picked up a cute outfit. She ran up to Dave, showed it to him, and then said, "Love it!" *****She calls freckles, "pickles." It's so cute. I can't correct her.
CONNOR: We were in a bathroom in California and I jokingly asked Connor if he needed a diaper change. (He is potty trained!) He looks at me seriously and says, "I don't know. Let me check." And proceeds to pull down his pants. *****One night we were out late shopping. On our way home Connor fell asleep. I tried to wake him up to ask him what he wanted for dinner at MCDonald's and because bed time was only an hour away. He groggily responded, "But the sky is down!" ***** Playdough for Connor is pronounced, "potato." Again, can't correct it.
BROOKE: We were watching a video of Panda sneezing and she thought it was so funny. She said to me, "Connor and Aspen have to see this! They will crap up!" *****At the grocery store, the kids always fight over who gets to ride in the "car" part (only room for two). So yesterday I asked who would volunteer to sit in the basket part. Aspen willingly volunteered so I let her choose a treat. I was telling Dave about it before family prayer and Brooke said, "Next time you do that, I'll Bolunteer!" *****Brooke calls eyelashes, "eyeflashes." Too sweet.
