I'm a little late on this, but the pictures were actually taken when he turned 8mo. He's getting so big! He's rolling all over the place. He keeps getting stuck under the Christmas tree. He's found his voice recently too. He babbles all the time. It's so cute! 
Thomas' 7th birthday was yesterday! It was a really fun day. I volunteered in his class in the morning then stayed to have lunch with him. It's really fun to watch him interact with his friends and see what he does everyday at school. We had most of Mike's family over for pizza and cake. He had a great time playing with his cousins. We got him a DS and he was really surprised! His party is this Saturday. He's so excited and keeps asking how much longer.
7 seems so old to me. He's not a little boy anymore. It really seems like he was just a baby. Time flies so fast! It seems like I just had him but yet he's 7 and the oldest of 4!
Wow, I haven't posted in a month. I just can't seem to find the time. I do have lots of updates so I'll try to get to them soon, but this post is about Max being 7 months old! He had his 6mo appt on Oct 1 and he was 20lbs 10oz and 27 1/2 inches. He got several shots which he wasn't happy about but he usually calms down pretty fast. He is sitting up better, but not for too long at a time. He's rolling a lot more. He has 2 teeth now and I think more are on their way.
I can't believe Max is half way to his 1st birthday! He hit a couple of milestones a few days ago (9/21). He finally rolled over! He rolled onto his stomach then about a minute later rolled back onto his back. He seemed kind of shocked that he could do it. Later that day I noticed his bottom right tooth had broken through. He's also able to sit up briefly on his own. He seems like he wants to sit up and watch what is going on. Whenever he is on the floor he lifts his head like he's trying to sit up. It's so fun watching him figure all of this out. I do hope he takes his time on getting mobile though ;) His 6mo appt is next week so I'll update then. 
Griffin started pre-K last week. Finally! Thomas has already been in school for a month. He goes Tues-Friday in the mornings. Luckily he has several friends from his class last year in his class again. Several went on to kindergarten though so he's a little confused about that. He just missed the cutoff by a few days, but I think it will be good for him to be older. Taking him to school is sort of a pain though. His school is pretty close to our house but they are doing construction on the main road to get there so it takes twice as long now. And this year his class is upstairs so I get to drag Max and Lucas upstairs to sign him in. I've over it already and it's only been 1wk! But he likes his class and is having fun! It is nice having time with just the 2 little boys while he's in school. It's easier to run errands and to have time to focus on just them. Griffin and I get alone time in the afternoons while Max and Lucas are sleeping. His new favorite thing is watching the Food Network. Sometimes we make real things and sometimes he pretends to cook. It's so cute to watch him b/c he's so serious about it. I'll update on the other boys soon.
Thomas started 1st grade on Wednesday. He was kind of hesitant to go at first, but he seems to really like it so far. It's really strange having him gone all day. This summer went too fast! I can't believe I have a 1st grader! Wasn't he just a baby?!?!
I'm a little late on this, but Griffin turned 5 last week. On his birthday we had a party at Monkey Joe's. All of the kids had a great time! And it was really nice not having it at home. Last Sunday we had the family over to celebrate his bday along with Max's baptism.
