Picture of the Week: Happy New Year!


We spent New Year's Eve at the Lukses and had so much fun. The kids toasted with "champagne" at east coast midnight and celebrated with cupcakes and popping confetti in the backyard.



Us grown-ups also toasted to a blessed and prosperous new year, and Perry gave Daddy his new year's kiss.






We met Matt and Frannie for lunch at Lucille's on Tuesday, since we had the day off of work. We both got new cars this week in anticipation of our expanding families and talked all things baby at lunch. How crazy is it that in a few months, the kids will outnumber us SEVEN to four?! We definitely won't be going out to lunch for a while.


Perry snuggled on the couch with me and took a nap, while I watched some football.


She came home from school on Wednesday singing "Where is Pointer?". Girlfriend moved herself into the three year old class at school, although she isn't three until May. When I asked her why, she said, "because I'm bigger!".


The girls played with filters and tried some new hair colors on Perr.


Then they took a million pictures of themselves on their iPads.




We got some rain Saturday night, and Perry insisted on catching some raindrops in her mouth.


The girls continued their iPad photo extravaganza upstairs and had me cracking up at their pictures.




That's all for now. See ya next week!

Happy New Year!!

...Char was sleeping so peacefully Monday morning that I didn't want to wake her up. ...she made me a pretty picture at school with chalk. ...she continued her obsession with the easel and colored (and watched Toy Story ) while waiting for Daddy to get home from work. Hooray for panties! ...it got cold and windy again, but we played outside anyways. Isaac played catch with the neighbor boys, while JJ flew the kite and Char strutted her stuff. ...the girls danced around the living room. There is an iTunes Radio station called 'Frozen Radio' that the girls are crazy about. They play random Disney songs, and we listen to it all.the.time. (After watching this a few times, I realized that Char was trying to sing "friend in" as in "You've Got a Friend In Me".) ...Grace put Charley to bed by tickling her face. ...the girls got cake pops. Yep, for breakfast. ...we got to school a few minute...

Can you believe Grace is nineteen months old? Time flies so much faster when you have a baby! This month she got to go see Dr. Vu for a check-up and didn't even have to get any shots. She was super excited hanging out in the waiting room and even learned how to say "cars": At nineteen months, Grace weighs in at 26 pounds, 4 ounces. This puts her in the seventy-fifth percentile for weight. We absolutely love that she's so squishy. It's makes it much more fun to smother her cheeks with kisses. She is also 31 inches tall. This is in the sixtieth percentile. Baby must have gone through a growth spurt since her last check up, because she was only in the thirtieth percentile back then. This month Grace learned a lot of new words. My favorite is when we say her bedtime prayers and at the end she says, "aaaamennn". It's so precious! She's now obsessed with Elmo and says "Ah Ehmo?" for "Where's Elmo?". She's also go...

Charley turns FIVE!

Char Char, the five year old. That doesn't even seem real. This girl has grown and changed so much over the past couple of months. She's lost her toddler look and is total big girl status these days. (She does still have her chipmunk voice, so at least I can hang on to that.) Charley will be starting Kindergarten soon, and we have her orientation this upcoming weekend. I'm not ready for that. With Grace, I was so excited. Charley still feels like a baby to me. She, on the other hand, cannot wait to join her big sis and the Sebastian boys at school every day. Charley recently had a doctor's appointment where they told her she didn't need any shots, and she was so happy after anticipating them all day. She weighed in at forty pounds and stands forty-four inches tall. She's in the fiftieth percentile for weight and the seventy-fifth for height. She is in size five in almost everything and is wearing a size ten in shoes. Char loves her dresses a...
