Valentines

How sweet it is to have these four little loves to light up my day (and sometimes the middle of the night.)



As you might expect, its impossible to get a picture with all four children cooperating. But we got 3 out of 4 on a lot of them, and I'll take it. They sure love that girl.



I couldn't pass up a chance to snap some pictures of Miss M in her sweet red outfit.



Oooh I love her sweet smile and her soft cheeks and her drooly mouth.



In case you missed it... I'm really into making bows. Like its out of control. So the red bow is a new addition to her wardrobe--you'll see it pop up in quite a few of her outfits for Disneyworld next week!



Sometimes she gets real tired out during tummy time. And just has to lay down.



It's kind of crazy to have all four of these kids to keep track of... and make Valentine boxes for... and get Valentine cards for their classes... and eat all their candy... it's a lot of candy!

Merritt || Five Month

Five months! Hooray!



Five months is a good time for this lady. Her eyes seem blue for good, she has some sweet furry hair coming in on her head and she loves to drool.



She's recently found her feet and loves to grab her toes and use them to roll super quickly onto her belly. Sucking in her bottom lip is a common face for her to make--I think she looks like a little turtle.



Her little thighs are getting good and fat and she loves to suck on her fingers. Any finger. Braden was a pretty committed thumb sucker, but any finger she can get in her mouth makes her happy.



She's a pretty good sleeper, as far as Scott babies go. I generally feed her around 11 before I go to bed and she normally wakes up around 4 or 5 to eat again. And then I normally have to wake her up around 8 to start taking children to school. She takes two naps unless its a crazy day and they get cut short--sometimes she'll sneak in a third one then. We're not in a rush to start solid foods--its messy, time consuming and nowhere near as exciting the fourth time round!
