Ok, here are the latest pictures of Eli. He is over 5 weeks old now and looking more like me then ever (poor kid). Well, he was wide awake and took the opportunity to take his photo. He looked pretty happy about it or maybe indifferent. Well, when he is awake he is taking in as much as he can before the sleep takes over him. Sounds like me. He is tons better at sleeping at night. He sleeps about 3 hrs. at a time and only wakes up for 30 mins. to eat and off he goes back to sleepyville. I love this kid. Well, this is short and sweet. Have a great week and let me know how everyone is doing.

Last day as a 3rd Grader

Today was the last day of school for Alex as a third grader. He was so excited he could hardly stand it this morning when he was getting dressed for the day. Today theme was tropical (straw hats). They had authenic Hawaian food served to them today and it was great. He has already exchanged addresses and phone numbers with his friends so they don't lose touch over the summer vacation. He is ready to start the summer and learn to play hockey!? Yes, I am putting him in to learn how to skate. Time will only tell if this will cause permanent damage. I will let everyone know how this is going. If he allows me to actually enroll him in it. :)

Aeryn the fancy.

Today I

decided to put some new photos of the kids. Instead of them all together I will put them all on their own seperate little entry. I am sure this will get old really fast but as of right now I think they will appreciate the individual attention. I got Aeryn these new outfit to help the general public understand that she IS a little girl. Not sure what it is about her that gives off the "boy" vibe. I am sure the sunglasses will help if there is any question. They have Snow white on the rim and they are pink. Well, she is doing great. Talking a ton more and is into everything. She loves to dance and hug on her little brother Eli. She is still a little rough but getting better. She is 21 months now and on her merry way to being 2. I can't wait to see what that will be like. To be honest if there is such a thing as terrible twos then I am in for a rude awakening. Well, that is all for now. I have two more to go!!!

Eli Howard Wilson!!!!

Hey, it's been a while since I updated everyone on our family. Well, the biggest news is our little boy Eli arrived on April 21st of 2009. He was 7lbs 11 oz. and a whomping 18.5 inches long (poor kid didn't have a chance!). Things weren't as smooth as we liked but it all turned out ok. He came home with us and that is all that matters. Alex is excited to have him in the family and is already talking about forming a club against Aeryn (the terror). We are hoping to have the club disbanned the end of the week. Aeryn is taking it a little harder. She has laid claiming to every blanket in the house and if we try to use it she just comes by and yanks it right from under Eli. We are still working on the word "share". Doesn't seem to be taking. We may have to go out and buy Eli his very own blanket so she knows it's his. She has even claimed me and Mark. If we try to pick him up when he is crying, she will start to cry and say "carry". What can I say my kid is smart. Only problem is my arms are getting tired to carrying both of them around. Well, Eli is now over a week old and is looking more and more like us every day. When I first saw him I had to make sure he was really ours. I had to have Mark replay the video just to make sure there wasn't a mix up at the hospital. It has been confirmed he's ours!! Well, here are a few pictures of our newest addition. Have a great week everyone!
