2 months old!

I can't believe Anabelle is already 2 months old!  She is definitely starting to act older, though.  She has started to be very smiley, is sleeping better (only getting up once at night this week!), she loves to watch her mobile as well as her siblings, she loves to stand up on her feet, and his holding her head up on her own quite well.  We love this girl!  Oh, and she has not seemed to have lost even a single hair!

Snow!

We got about 7 inches of snow last week, which is the biggest snow our kid shave been old enough to play in.  We all had so much fun!

Anabelle's 1st time in the snow
 This was Wednesday afternoon-not a whole lot, but enough to play in
 The 3 kiddos
 Bob even took them on the sled-it was quite the workout for him in the backyard with no hill!
 Got to have hot chocolate and marshmallows after playing out in the snow!
 Cheese!
 This was Thursday morning...now that's a lot of snow!
 Levi complained that it was hard to walk
 I took the kids sledding in the road where the tracks from tires had iced over.  Much easier on me!

1 month old!

As of yesterday, Anabelle is one month old!  Hard to believe she's that old already-time flies...in some ways!  She has grown a lot and is changing already-still working on sleeping more though.  She had been sleeping a little longer stretches, but stopped that when she got a cold at the end of last week.  Hoping to get that back soon.  Here are some recent pics:

 Snuggled up on Daddy
 Smiling in her sleep-she does this a lot.  We're hoping for a "real" smile soon!
 Nice and alert!
All 3 kiddos
 Anabelle LOVES her sister!
Looking cute in that hat!
 Just for fun, the next 3 pics are of each of our kiddos at one month.  They are pretty similar!  Here's Levi

Newborn pics

A friend took these pics of Anabelle when she was a week old, and they turned out so great!  She also took a few of the big kids as well as our family!  Just a quick update, Anabelle is now nearing 3 weeks old!  She had her 2 week check up yesterday and is now 7 lbs. 10 oz., so she is gaining quickly!  She is healthy and loves to eat!  We are so thankful for our sweet baby girl!

November

This blog is quickly becoming a once-a-month posting kind of blog.  Better than nothing, though!  Here is our November in pics:

Our class at church had a joint baby shower for me and another pregnant mom due in December!
 All the little girls at the shower!
 Enjoying fall!
 We went on a field trip to the fire station for the 1st time!
 You can make Levi be in a picture, but you can't make him look at the camera!
 Addie with the fireman in all his gear.
 Levi got a surprise in the mail from the dentist since he hadn't sucked his thumb in over 3 weeks!  Too bad he has to wear hot sauce, tape, and gloves on his hands every time he sleeps to keep him from sucking it.
 Super Levi!
