Joah is 4!!

Our little goat herder - he actually got one in a head lock one day! I'm waiting for them to figure out what's going on and turn on him, but so far that hasn't happened. He insists that they are his goats, oh, and so are the cows :P (The goats are his cousin's, the cows his great gpa's). We do have chickens though so I guess we're starting up a pretty good farm if you ask him!


Lillian is SO in love with him (and the feelings are mutual). He is the one person that can almost always make her smile. He was dancing with her here...


And they were having a conversation here. He would talk to her, and she would coo back. It was too sweet! I actually did get a video of it...


Our first official day of pre-k (homeschool)


Lillian's baptism


Blowing out the candles on his birthday cake! A chocolate dinosaur cake with M&M's - just like he asked for (Kevin's mom made it).


Our little tacos! haha


Papa came down to pick up a washer and brought their new puppy with. Joah absolutely loved her. She ended up asleep in his lap for a little while... he didn't want to put her down!


Oh, and Joah painted my toe nails for me. Can you tell?


Trying out his new bat and helmet that he got for his birthday... first thing Saturday morning (literally).


Joah and Lillian had their checkups yesterday. Lillian is 25" long and 16lbs 13 oz - 75% for length, 95% for weight. She's a BIG girl... the doc said she was obviously thriving :P

Joah was 39 1/2" tall and 33lbs - around the 30% range. He's a little guy, but he's at least on the charts now and going upward. He is going to have to see a pediatric ophthalmologist (sp?) b/c his pupils aren't dilating at the same rate sometimes, so hopefully that will go OK. He also got a shot and declared that it didn't hurt - he didn't even flinch! The nurse was shocked! She said she's never seen that happen with a 4 year old before (the same boy who had a blood draw last year and said "ow" - that's it!)

The other good news is the doc took a quick peek at Morgan's tonsils and they have gone down considerably so hopefully no surgery for her any time soon! She's even stopped snoring for the time being so hopefully that means the apnea is gone, too.

This picture just makes me laugh...

I forgot to mention that Morgan is now potty trained! Well, "trained" is not the right term since she did it all by herself, but you know what I mean...
