Lilo pictures

I was getting things together for our trip and got my camera out to check the battery. The battery was almost dead so I used up the rest of the "juice" taking pictures of Lilo (Caroline). I asked her to pose and she got her blanky and loved on it for her pictures. Here are my favorites. I love her eyes in these, they are so big. The first one is the best, I think. What do you think?

I didn't do any editing on these just added a vignette to two of them using Picnik. Picnik is a free website and it does some pretty cool stuff, check it out!

She's gone ducky!

We are getting ready to go on a weekend trip to the Wisconsin Dells on Friday. We are going to be staying at a hotel that has a water park inside. So we got out our swim stuff today to get packed. Caroline wanted to put her goggles on. I about wet my pants laughing so hard!







We are going to the Dells to attend the Annual RTS Midwest Reunion. This will be our first time attending and are really looking forward to meeting some of the families that I have known through emails for a year and a half. I will be posting pictures when we get home on Sunday or Monday.

Did they just say Poop???

So Caroline was watching Nick jr. today after school and I got busy and forgot to change the channel when Spongebob came on. I normally don't let Caroline watch Spongebob because the little bit that I have watched it was vulger and not appropriate for a little girl to watch. I went to change it and Caroline begged me to leave it on because she was in the middle of the show. I agreed, not sure why, maybe because I didn't want to deal with the fit that would have occurred if I wouldn't have agreed. I then went about my business doing my house cleaning. I walked through the living room and heard them saying poop!!! I asked Caroline what they just said to which she proudly responded "poop". I quickly got the remote and changed the channel.

What the heck is wrong with people??!! Why do they think that this type of stuff is okay to have in CHILDREN'S cartoons? Give me a break, would ya?!

Video clip of William

So we got the video camera out tonight to document Will doing some of his new stuff. This one is of Will trying to stand and then giving up, he opted to get Mr. Cow instead. Then the video shows you how William "loves" on Mr. Cow. Oh, Mr. Cow just come out of the dryer. He had to have a bath today. He was so gross!

Here is a video clip of Will doing his new trick! We are so proud of his new accomplishments that he has done over the last few days. We think he is pretty cute too! Enjoy!

Got the giggles?

This is a video of Will's cute laugh. Whenever he gets to laughing like this it is hard not to laugh with him. That is Josh behind him saying a word that Will thinks is hesterical. Make sure that you have your volume on, you have got to hear the laughing! Enjoy!

Turning the corner

I think that Will is turning the corner on this whole eating thing! He has been working on it for awhile now but I didn't want to post and jinx it! LOL!

Anyway, since we have started with the pediasure a few weeks ago he has been increasing his daily ounces. With his formula we would struggle to get 20 ounces a day in him, with the pediasure he is easily getting 24 ounces down a day. With the formula we were tubing feeding him with every bottle, since we have started the pediasure we have not had to tube feed him at ALL!!!! Yup, you read that right! We have not had to tube feed William in over 2 weeks!! He is DRINKING 24 ounces a day! I think that he likes the taste of the pediasure better than the formula. It is a nice vanilla flavor (he smells like a vanilla bean most days, sometimes, me too!).

In addition to the pediasure he is also eating stage 1 baby food a lot better now too. He will eat about a full jar of the baby food at each meal. He is eating almost three jars of baby food a day. Of course the stage 1 baby foods are the really small jars but nonetheless, we will take it! Before he would let everything that we would put in his mouth just fall out. Now he is holding it in his mouth and swallowing it, letting nothing come out!

You have no idea what an accomplishment this is for William. It is time to start packing on the pounds!! Just kidding!
