March 20th, 2009 at 2:52 pm my 3rd little boy came into this world.  Hard to believe he is 4 years old today!!

This past weekend we celebrated his birthday with family here at our house.  He requested that his birthday cake be Bob The Builder!  I knew I was in for challenge when I saw the cake pan.  Needless to say 4 hours later Bob was complete and Liam LOVED it!!

 I made homemade pizza for dinner and the family brought in the fruit, veggies, chips.

 Time for gifts.  Liam was pretty excited and thrilled to have all those gifts to himself.  He does care, because when my brother and his wife walked in the house, Liam ran up and said "did you bring me a gift"?  Guess I have a little teaching to do that we don't ask for gifts(although its tough at this age:))

 Time for cake and ice cream.  Liam was so quick to blow out his candles that noone got a picture so we had to relight them and let him blow them out again.

Happy 4th Birthday Liam Nicholas Waibel!!  We love you so much!!

Snow

So we got a substantial amount of snow.  Can't say I was to excited to see it falling outside, but the kids sure were!!  They didn't even wait for it to stop snowing......they got home from school on Tuesday and got all dressed up.

 Yes, it was snowing that hard that the visibility was pretty poor.  Kids are out making a snow man, because it was PERFECT packing snow.

 After 2 hours Liam came trotting back inside.....he was done:)

 On Wednesday kids were out of school so out they went again.  This time they weren't out nearly as long.  But they still had fun crawling around and eating snow.....eeeewwww!!!

 Elijah's snow man that he made.  Purdue hat and all:)

10 months!!

On February 23rd little miss Ellie turned 10 months old.  Time just keeps ticking!!  She is still not crawling, but I am perfectly fine with that.  At least I know right where she is:)  I had lots of fun with her photo shoot this time.  I think I took 20 picutres...but Im not the greatest photographer so not all turned out.  Here are several to enjoy.  Love the outfit....a gift from some dear friends Philip and Lana from Atlanta!!!

 And then I decided to stand her up and lean her back just a tad bit so she wouldn't fall forwards.  Gotta love the lizard tongue she so nicely sports!!!

Happy Valentines Day

I think the kids thought it was christmas:).....

 

They set up a red blanket on the ground, put their valentines gifts on the blanket after dinner and then proceeded to open up their gifts.  Normally we don't do to much for Vday, but this year I thought it would be fun to get them something.  They also had gifts from G&G Waibel to open as well. We got E and C Apples to Apples Junior game and some candy and Liam got a Mobiego game and candy.

 THEN it was time for Ellie to open her gift from Elijah......................

Tada!!!  Elijah made an adorable knitted hat for ellie and then mom waibel made a scarf to match.  They did this all while staying at Dad and Mom Waibels the few days after I had ear surgery.  Its so cute on Ellie and she wore it proudly the remainder of the night!!

A Tooth!!

At 9 months and 2 weeks old sweet little Ellie got her first tooth!  Don't mind the brown cheerio piece in her mouth:).  Guess I didn't let her swollow before I took a picture.

EEWWWW

 Ear Surgery on Wednesday January 23rd, 2013   This is what you see when gauze is in.

 and this is the amount of stitches and cut the doctor made inside my ear.  No wonder this is painful!!

Of course I can't post without showing something that isn't gross....................

 I bought Ellie a hat and a headband that was crocheted.  So fun!!!

9 months old!!

My baby girl is 9 months old!!  So hard to believe 9 months have passed since she entered this world and our lives.  Where does time go??

 Even though she isn't all smiles in this picture, I do love it.  She looks so content and thats exactly what she is....CONTENT!

 In these two pictures you see her personality shine forth....full of smiles, with a wide mouth(just like her brothers)....to bad she doesn't open up this wide when we feed her:(.  And her new favorite activity is clapping her hands.  Usually you just have to say "yeahhhhhh" and she will break out in applause.

No teeth to report yet(not even a sign of one coming in), and she still isn't crawling!!  She is my little "slow poke".  Like I said before, she is content just the way she is.  Love you baby girl!
