OH the Excitment!!
Well we had a good holiday, busy, exhausting and wonderful.
Christmas Eve we got up went for Breakfast at Sara's Kitchen a hold in the wall restaurant(my favorite kind, small family own nothing fancy), than took the boys out to fly the kite which we have been meaning to since Noah got it at Easter(yup we are horrible parents), but we finally got out to fly it. The boys loved it I forgot my camera but we took a video on the phone so we'll have to try to get it up on here. Than we raked the leaves out front and let the boys jump in and I got pictures of that until I broke my camera, pretty sad about that since if it cost a lot to fix I going to be with out a camera for a long time which is pretty upsetting but since we just bought a new house and repairs and Monday the new furnace got put in there are no funds till we get the cards and everything paid down. Times like this I wish we had two incomes in the house, but as i always say things will work out somehow in the end, but right now it feel pretty much when Tom and I got out of university, thankfully our credit limit is higher right :S.
Well besides some cell pictures and i think we have some videos i have to check...but we had a great Christmas. the boys loved their gift, however i really think tom and i had to get them anything because well Santa's were the top gift of all. Noah got buzz light year and sleeps with it and it goes where ever he goes. Jonas loves he's dump trunk and he is always putting toys in it even when he is playing with other toys. We got a kindle for reading books and tom loves it which is great he can read the papers mags and buy books. Tom bought me a mother and child pendant, which he made the comment that it wasn't gum ball jewelery but a step up in the discount bend LOLOL...I don't care i love it. Lucas loves his new chair too, now he not falling to the floor when the few times the chair collapsed. We cooked a chicken for our dinner and it turn out okay. my oven still fluctuates so much that i am learning basically how to cook with it. so it was slightly over cooked but way better than the uncooked bird at thanksgiving, when we didn't know the oven wasn't working.
So I had the boys baby books out making sure they were all up to date, and since everyone is shocked how young Lucas is I wanted to compare the growth of all three boys. See we get more comments that Lucas appears actually older than he really is and than when they find out really that well tomorrow he is only 11wks old they are like he's a big boy but not really meaning rolly polley but as just older. He has a few rolls on his thighs but he doesn't have the doulble chin etc.
Anyhow there is what I found and it looks like all three boys are growing pretty similar it just they keep starting off bigger and bigger. haha
Noah
birth 7 lbs 12oz 20"
2months 11 lbs 5.5oz 24"
Increase of 3 lbs 9.5oz 4"
Jonas
birth 8 lbs 11oz 20''
2 months 12 lbs 8.5 23 3/4"
Increase of 3 lbs 13.5 oz 3 3/4"
Lucas
birth 10 lbs 2.1oz 22"
2 months 14 lbs 25"
Increase of 3 lbs 14oz 3"
So there for not a lot of difference with the grow rate, they are just getting bigger and bigger at birth. Which worries me a little about the next one. I forgot to look in the books to see when Noah and Jonas started rolling over, I remember Noah really not rolling much he was always happy on his tummy and than just crawled. But Lucas is rolling and I really really hope that he doesn't crawl before Jonas did (5months is too early) I don't think I heard of a baby crawling before than, maybe I should google it. I have to remind myself all the time that Lucas is really just a new born (Noah was 14 something lbs at 6 months), so you can see why I have to remind myself that Lucas is still a new born. I love how different all our boys are it really keeps thing interesting and yet they are so similar for many way.
Well Tom has been home with us since 24th and the building where is office is, is doing some work and they had to shut down their computers so he hasn't been able to work till the 27th so it has been wonderful even thought the house looks like a bomb went off in it.

Special Moments.
I love Christmas but I have to say this year it might be do to a little less sleep but I was starting to stress and not really enjoying the season which was also making me a little upset b/c I so love this yr. Well I am back and so not stressed out anymore. Because I stopped thinking of things I need to do and get done. might also be due to the fact that I got out most of my Christmas Cards sorry if I forgot you and you are reading this. Jonas spilled milk on my list and it got thrown out and I couldn't remember if I was missing anyone....Got a few little gifts out.
Anyhow I am not going out to the store anymore if I don't have it we don't need it. I haven't decided if I am going to cook a turkey yet as our oven isn't working that well, which is a little sad if I don't but oh well. Anyhow these are the thing I love about Christmas:
Christmas songs, I added some to my play list like Baby it's Cold outside, Ave Maria(always reminds me of Christmas time) etc.
Our Christmas cookies
Noah with our star
Our almost finished tree
Our family...we miss the rest of our family though.

Christmas
Merry Christmas to Everyone who might read this!
Jonas birthday party was on Sunday and we went to play soccer and my friends mom is the GM at the place so she gave us a bouncey house for free, the all had a blast and us and the kids were completely exhausted afterward. I can't believe he is 2. I really feel like he was just born. I love having children but main do they really make the time fly and the years past by very quickly.
We got the lights finally up last weekend too and our tree is up and half decorated still, not sure if we'll get it completely decorated this yr.
I hope I have all my shopping done for the boys b/c I know I won't get out to do anymore.
I have pictures to get off the camera still but where is the time to do that. I wish I could do what I want with my pictures but than again there is no time for that either. I guess when all the kids are in school I will have time for that stuff that we talk about before Noah was born haha. But for now I am going to enjoy my kids and feel blessed that I get to be with them all the time, as so many mom who want to but can't b/c they need to work! I am truly blessed!
