Seven Month Photos! Chicken Pox!!!


Wow, I really cannot believe Spencer is already seven months old. It is going by so quickly! 

He has been very busy learning to roll over and sit up. He loves to watch his brothers play, and will sit in their midst for quite a while watching and "talking" to them. They all seem to get along very well. 

Spencer also loves to be held, and of course dislikes being alone - especially waking up after naptime. Maybe it's good he's going to share a room with Logan! 

Anyway, here are some photos of him at seven months: 



In other news, poor Logan ended his birthday with a trip to the pediatrician, and Chicken Pox! We were going for his annual well-child visit anyway so that was lucky. 

Logan is just shy of 3' tall, and 28 lbs. Apart from the Chicken Pox he's doing great. It's funny I didn't know kids still contracted Chicken Pox...now that there is a vaccine for it. It seems that is just my ignorance concerning vaccines. 

The Chicken Pox vaccine is a series of two. Our doctor said the first shot is 90% effective and the second is 95% effective. This makes sense when you consider you can still have the flu after a flu shot - but you should only have a mild case. Logan has only had the first vaccination. So he was in the unlucky 10%! But there are anti-vitals now to give him, and he's only sprouted about 5 pox. Nothing like the misery I went through!!! 

Spencer hasn't had any vaccinations for Chicken Pox yet, but he does share my antibodies and so far he's okay, but we are keeping our eyes peeled for bumps! Jack has had both, so we aren't too worried about him. We just feel for everyone who was at our house for the party! 

Until next time...

Angel or Devil?

Kids. They are too funny. I had to share this one with all of you. We went to Mass today and tried to sit inside for once. Everything was great, until Jack noticed the missal in the pew had these nice orange and yellow squares or something in the illustration on the cover. He was conviced they were dominoes, but that is a word he struggles to say. So, at an especially quiet time in the Mass he looks at me and says, "damn-yous! damn-yous!" We both had a mix of embarassment and laughter. Only out of the mouth of a 2 year old! We went to the back of the church soon after that. :)

Happy Birthday Jack

Here are some photos from Jack's 2nd birthday day, and party. He was so excited he was telling everyone happy birthday! We 'filled' his room with balloons while he was sleeping. He was so excited to wake up to balloons! Jack wanted to pose with his new favorite toy - Buzz! They are still usually only separated at nighttime (too tempting to make noise all night). Oh, and that is his 'camera' smile. He uses it whenever he sees the lens pointed at him. So cheesy! Blowing out the candles on his Spiderman cake. Yes, all the other stuff is Thomas the Train. He likes what he likes. Jack wasn't about to let Emerson go home without a hug. It was a hug, not an attack. Promise!

Easter

Easter has come and gone, but finally I have some photos uploaded! We had a nice time and enjoyed spending time with Grandma and Grandpa C, Antie and Uncle John Tressell , and Uncle Robert, Aunt Natalie, and Emerson. Jack really enjoyed hunting for eggs (for a few days he asked us to hide them again so he could find them), but was a bit disappointed when they no longer had animal cracker in them. Anyway better late than never. I'll put all the photos on Flickr . :) Painting Eggs They actually sat still for three seconds! Family Photo - Easter 2011 Until next time...
