Science Center 2



Other than this chair that goes up and down with a pulley....


Keira's favorite part of the whole Science Center and the Dinosaur Exhibit was this plastic hanging thing that led to the Dinosaur exhibit. She ran in and out this for a long time. She loved it... I guess we need a dangly curtain thingie for our house.

Happy 4 months Israel!!!





Israel is hanging out in Keira's doll stroller! Israel weighed in at 13 lbs 9 oz for his 4 month check up.. which is tiny! Keira was 14 lbs 3 oz at 4 months. ( she was a whole lb smaller at birth too) Both of them were 24 inches long. That puts him at 25% for weight and 35% for height. He eats way more than Keira did but he also spits up more......

This is a 5 year old on the line with 911 ( her dad is having chest pain). I could totally see Keira acting like this. The girl is worried about what she is going to wear for the fireman.

Decisions Decisions

Up in Israel's room the decision is what color to paint the room... I'm voting for a greenish color, sort of a sagey type color and Mike is voting for a blue color.
We have already decided to go with a Mocha for the bathroom.
The room will hopefully be dry walled by the end of this week or next. Then its paint and flooring!!! I'm looking forward to not having any construction clean up to do weekly and for Mike to not have any projects he needs to work on- like that will ever happen!
The other decision we are mulling over is whether or not we want to send Keira to preschool in the fall. After some discussion we have decided to tour 2-3 schools and take it from there. We are thinking we would like to try it if, and that's a big IF, she is potty trained by then. It would be a 2 day a week program that's just 2-3 hours in the am. I am touring one school next week and another the week after. We have 2 Christian and one Catholic school on our list of schools to check out. We will keep you posted.
We are still going back and forth on whether or not we want to put our house for sale after its completed and look for something bigger ( that of course would need work) or stay put for another year or so.

Israel has decided that pacifiers are no longer acceptable and only wants the breast.. all night every night. I wake up dry as a desert and in desperate need of breakfast, that is if I manage to fall asleep at all with the buffet open all night long. Its a challenging but precious time. And just to prove that he is a boy and prefers the breast this morning while I was at the eye Doctors Israel refused to take the bottle of breast milk I had left and decided to make his anger known very loudly. Poor Daddy.. or should it be poor Mama? Either way the kiddos keep life interested and crazy and we are enjoying the ride.
We made it to February and no one has died of cabin fever yet... of course spring is still at least 3 months away so we shall see......
