Our Family of Six

January 2017 Wrap Up

Pictures throughout January.

After church one Sunday I took pictures of Isak and Kira. I just LOVE Kira's Christmas dress. She looks so cute.

Aren't those little faces adorable?

The kids are now in CTR 4. Thankfully, they have the same amazing teacher Sister Wallace.

We made it to a park one day- Sunrise park in Gilroy. They had some cool toys like this digger.

And a horsey for Kira.

Obviously, Nels had to teach them how to use it. :)

I put the babies in the swing.

Sofie was pretty excited.

Noah tolerated it. I love their hats!!

My older twins are cute too! I took just them to Diana park one day. They loved it.

I got Kira a horse book. She loved looking at it with her pup Sky.

The babies can be found just about anywhere nowadays. Even under Isak's chair!

All ready for bed. They love being in daddy's arms.

This is what happens when Nels comes home. He's immediately surrounded by four kids.

Sitting up and watching their sister play with the train. It's serious!

Sleeping children, big or small, melts my heart.

Sofie loves to get some hugs from her daddy.

The babies needed to get the second part of the flu shot. So I took all four to the doctor by myself. I was pretty proud of myself. :)

Nels showed us where he works.

Kira loves to just play. She is singing to her toys while they go to sleep.

And what a cute face this is! haha.

I painted Kira's fingernails. I think that's the first time for her fingernails. She loved being pampered. I love her little dimple.

And that's all the pics for January 2017!

8 Months - January 2017

8 Months Old.

Here's what I wrote in my journal about each baby.

Noah is so handsome. :)

He is sneaky too. heehee.

He's also very particular. If he is not ready for a nap he will NOT sleep, but cry until you get him. It's a guessing game with him sometimes. But he will put himself to sleep for naps and nighttime.

He has the most burps out of the 4 kids! He has 2 teeth. He just started to army crawl and LOVES to go all over. He doesn't put stuff in his mouth like Sofie. He can play with one toy for a long time.

He has an adorable laugh but you have to work for it. He's not demanding, he just likes things a certain way. He's a good eater. We love our Noah Boy!

Both babies wear size 2 diapers.

Sofie is a good eater too. She eats 6-7 ounces of formula in one feeding. She likes oatmeal, carrot and sweet potato baby food (I make my own carrot and sweet potato baby food). She loves puffs. Sofie loves to put everything in her mouth and taking the older kids's toys.

She army crawls everywhere. She loves to explore. She has the most blow outs!!! I'm constantly washing out her clothes. She puts herself to sleep very well for naps and night time. She sleeps with a blanket. She laughs and smiles. She is just eager to be with everyone.

She has 4 teeth and she's cutting 2 more! She is also the sloppiest eater out of the 4 kids! We just love our Sofie girl!

Sofie and Noah Growing Up - January 2017

Yes, I'm officially a year behind. But I'm determined to catch up!

So where were we January of 2017.

We were living in Morgan Hill, California. Our Older Twins had just turned four and our babies were 8 months old. It was a busy, crazy time for me as a mom. Most of my time went to taking care of the babies and helping Kira and Isak with whatever they needed.

But I did capture some pics. These are mostly of the babies.

All smiles, and lots of moving around so a little blurry!
