He is 4 months today!

My sweet little guy is 4 months today! He is the sweetest little baby. He loves to gargle-talk. Loves to nib on his fist. Loves his brother and sisters. So easy to smile. Ticklish when we change his clothes. Just rolled over last night. He loves to eat and get so excited when he sees his babba.
We love you sweet pea! Happy 4 mo. birthday!

Not an easy job

I was laughing so hard when I saw this.

Big Sister

First Snow

My little artist

Both of those projects are hers.

This was made on the fabric.

The top one is hers. She was making Buffalo skin and then painting on it.

Rylee had her first art gallery last night. We were really excited to see what she has been doing every Monday after school. I love all of her projects. She was very proud to show and tell about each of them. Go Rylee!!!

My Fall Baby

The best dad ever!!!

One of the reasons why I love Troy so much is the kind of father that he is. The other day I came to the house just to find him in this little tent, playing some puppy game with Brooklyn. It just melt my heart.

Talent in making

Rylee and Lily tend to always come up with something creative to do. After making banana bread (on their own...which by the way turn out very good) they made up a song about having a bad day.

Buds

My two boys on the beautiful hike up at Sundance canyon. I have never been there, but looking at the pictures makes me want to go. Our kids always enjoy one on one dates. They were gone for a long time and sure enjoyed home made chicken noodle soup latter when they got home.

Ryder is ONE month old

(sorry for the photos, we do need new camera)

I can't believe how fast time has gone by. My little dude is already one month old. I just want to scream and ask time to slow down. Our little babies grow so fast.

Ryder is a sweet little guy, he loves his mamma (smile), loves to cuddle, he smiles about 10 times a day and Troy managed to get him giggle a few times...it is truly music to our years....He's such a gift and I am so lucky to have him.

Happy Halloween !!

Dad never fails in his artistry of pumpkin curving...

Rylee trying to be scary. She was a vampire, though I don't think she liked wearing those fake teeth.The minute Brooklyn wear her Cinderella dress, her mind emerged into a dream land...she was walking around talking to her imaginary friends and asking them if they thought she was lovely....Both Rylee and Drew were just looking at me like, mom, is she ok? I just love that girl, she truly has a gift of being happy.

Drew got sick, sick, sick...poor kid, he had to stay home and couldn't even eat any candy...

Can I please some how get those eye lashes....they are sooo long. People were keep asking her if those were fake ones... I don't think she will ever have to wear a mascara.

My scary vampire!

Ryder Wren Patti 9/30/09 9 lbs. 21"

My sweet babies!!

They say babies don't smile at this age....boo hoo....I KNOW that is not true. Ryder smiles a lot and it is not from gas.

Toes, are my fav in babies
Bubbles for his mamma
How grateful I am for my healthy boy and my awesome husband who did wonderful job playing "mom" while mom was in the hospital.... Thank you babe, I love you .

Ryder is almost here

Kids are so excited and have been counting days when their little brother will be born.

As you can see Mom....me that is....is counting days as well.......

Hope to be induced this Wednesday if the hospital will have room for me....they better!!!

Wish me luck!!!! Can hardly wait to hold my little dude!!! Though, I don't think he is going to be very little.....Drew was 9.11 and Brooklyn 9.8 I'm guessing Ryder is going to be around that as well.

Is it a dog? Is it alive?

Aaaahmm....yes, just found my dog in the tab......Never new, dogs like taking relaxing baths as well.....
He was so content in there. I had to take a double look to see if he was awake or alive in that matter. Dude had his eyes closed and just laid there as Troy showered him down......
Now, I will need someone to scrab that tab silly...and it sure ain't going to be me....
