Mothers Day and Baby Dedications!

Ok I know this is way late but better late then never! I had a great Mothers Day! I love being a mommy! I am blessed that my husband works so hard so I am able to stay home and care for our sons. I love to watch them learn, grow and have fun!

On Mothers Day the boys were dedicated at church. It was nice that a lot of our family was able to go see the boys be dedicated. All 4 of us went on stage and Hughey introduced us and read a scripture we chose for the boys. The scripture was Mark 12:30 "And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength." We chose this scripture because this is something we want the boys to live by. If you love the Lord then everything else will fall into place and you will obey him.

I was really nervous about bring the boys on stage I wasnt sure how they would handle it. It wasnt as bad as I thought it would be, Caiden kept saying down and saying Papa (which is my dad) and Landon was good as long as I kept the binky in his mouth.

I love you so much Caiden and Landon! You bring so much joy to my life!


We are finding very difficult to get family pics at the moment. The boys are never very into it but at least we are all looking at the camera. Its funny because Landon does not look happy, HA!

On stage listening to other families being introduced

I had no idea he was smiling! Apparently he liked being the center of attention!



Landon is 6 months!

Landon is now 6 month s old, we cant believe it! We had his 6 month appt and here are the stats: Weight 19.13 lbs (86%), height 27 inches (72%), and head 45.6cm (92%). It is amazing how much he has grown considering how tiny he was when he was born. He has already tripled his birth weight! :) Landon is such a wonderful addition to our family. Caiden absolutely loves him and thinks its fun to make Landon smile. Landon of course loves Caiden and watches everything he does. Landon is sitting up now and is quite the little roller. I put him down some where and leave the room, when I come back he is on the other side of the room. He started solids a few weeks ago and is doing pretty good now. It took him a while to adjust to solids. He is not a fan of rice cereal he prefers oatmeal. There really hasn't been anything that he has completely rejected but he makes it clear that he doesn't like certain foods, but will eat it any ways! :)

Other things that Landon loves:
-swinging at the park
-being outside
-Mommy (he is a mommies boy and I love it!)
-Caiden
-fruit
-he loves being thrown in the air
-he loves jumping
-chewing on EVERYTHING
-being tickled
-Patty Cake
-peek-a-boo

Landon is starting to become a lot more vocal and laughs a lot more. He has a huge smile that brightens everyones day!

I realized that i never did a post for Caiden at 6 months. I thought it would be fun to add Caidens stats to Landons so we could compare them.

Caidens stats 6 months:
weight 21.9lbs (96%)
Height 29 inches (99%)
Head 45.5cm (90%)

I remember at 6 months Caiden was sitting up and started crawling at about 7 and a half months old. Landon has so far shown no interest in crawling. It will be interesting to see when he starts.

Caiden was a whole 2 inches taller then Landon and weighed about a pound and a half more. its funny that Caiden was bigger but his head was a little smaller then Landons!
