Will 7 Months

7 months!! Will is 7 months old! He is closer to a year than he is to birth. That seems really crazy to me! Pretty soon we'll be celebrating his 1st birthday and my baby will be gone...cue the tears! 

He has starting scooting on his back and rolling around the house. He often gets stuck and frustrated, but lucky him (or unlucky him) he always has a brother nearby to help him out! 

This month has been a game changer for sleeping! While I was gone in Hawaii, Matt basically sleep trained Will. haha. I may have to leave more often. Will has started sleeping through the night (mostly) and now takes consistent longer naps (when he can, because we are basically always on the go). 

This kid is definitely not starving, and can finish a bottle in 2 seconds flat. He doesn't have any teeth yet, but loves to chew on things. 

While I was in Hawaii, Matt also broke Will from sleeping in his rock and play and got him sleeping in the crib full time. Seriously, Matt is amazing! He rocks the stay at home Dad life while I'm gone. Maybe I'll plan a trip when Will needs to be potty trained....

These two kill me! I think its a love hate relationship already. Hutch gets up in Will's face and says "WHILL WHILL!!" and then makes Will laugh, then pushes Will over and makes him cry. 

They are binky pals, and Hutch is always stealing Will's binky, then sharing his binky.  Maybe that's why Will gets sick whenever Hutch is sick. haha. 

Other happenings this month- 

Cut all my hair off! Donated 8 inches of hair. Super fun having short hair! 

I went on a girls trip to Hawaii! 

I went with 6 other mom's from my ward.  We stayed up late, got up early and laughed so so hard. Best trip ever!! 

While in Hawaii I got to meet Eric & Charlie's new baby Everest! She is the cutest snuggly baby ever! 

I was on babysitting duty one of the nights, I'm basically Evie's 2nd Mom. She slept 2.5 of the 3 hours I babysat her. She's so sweet. 

Matt is a saint and stayed home with all 4 kids for a week! He even bathed them! I think they get bathed like once a month by me. haha. He did such an amazing job! Matt is basically the best human on the planet, love that man! 

The boys made these cute Valentine's at preschool.

I'm dying over them! So so cute!!

These boys are the sweetest Valentines ever! How did I get so lucky to have the best boys in my life?

Hutch looks good as a girl, except he hated every minute of it. haha. 

So excited for Spring to finally come and warmer weather! Can't wait to get outside with all the boys and for Will to experience life outside of the house. haha. 

Will 6 Months

6 Months!! How is my baby half a year already?! Seems like it was just yesterday we were meeting him for the first time. Now we can't imagine life without little Will Will in our family! 

Will is 16lbs (40th percentile) and 25 inches (10th percentile). His head, although appears to be very round and large, is in the 30th percentile. He got his 6 month shots and did so great.  

Will just loves to be apart of the gang. He likes to sit up and watch his brothers play. Jameson makes him laugh all the time, they are great little buddies. 

The brothers make sure Will never has a dull moment and entertain aka bug him every waking moment of his day. 

Will loves his jumper thing. He bounces and bounces around and laughs.

He still wakes up in the night, every night I make a new resolve to work on sleep training and then the next day I'm too tired to work on it. Its a viscous cycle. haha. He'll sleep through the night some day. haha. 

Will tolerates food, when we feed him. We really haven't given him much baby food because there's always at least 10 other kids screaming to be fed at our house. I gave him a smashed up black bean and he gagged and puked. ha. So we're sticking to the easy route of bottles right now. 

We've had lots of boogers at our house lately. The sick bug has gone through each of the kids, including Will. It was just a cold, and Will probably tolerated it the best. haha. 

Hutch probably tolerated the cold the worst. He got really tired and ornery. Thankfully, it was only a few days of devil Hutch. 

Other happenings this month-

It snowed on a day Matt was off work, so Matt built a big snowman with the boys. They thought it was really cool for like 5 minutes, then went inside while Matt finished the snowman by himself. 

While the twins are in preschool, Hutch and Will and I go running on the track at the Rec center. Both boys do really well and are great little running buddies!

Jameson was practicing his photography skills and took this picture. 

We went to the Butterfly Exhibit at Thanksgiving Point with the Kirk family. It was Aunt Britt's Christmas present to the boys. 

We all LOVED it. It was such a fun exhibit and so much for the kids to do.

Will 5 Months

Will is 5 months!! Look at how chunky my baby is!! I love all those rolls! 

And just for comparison, Left- Hutch at 5 months, Right- Will at 5 months. Will is only like 5lbs heavier than Hutch. haha. 

Will just being a cute baby model. 

Lately Will has been loving baths! He loves to just splash and kick and splash everywhere! It's so cute to see how much he loves it! 

Christmas 2018!

Getting a good picture of 4 boys is near impossible. This is the best we got of all 4 of them. 

They were so cute in their matching pajamas. I may be a little obsessed with matching Christmas pajamas! 

Will is wearing the same jammies Hutch wore in our Christmas card last Christmas. It's so crazy how much has changed in a year! 

This month Matt and I celebrated our 9 year anniversary! We had fun going on a  date and getting away from the kids for a little bit. 

Carter and Hutch enjoying a bath. I just love bath pictures, they always look so cute in the bath! 

Will got in the spirit of the season with a turkey hat. 

The twins had a Teddy Bear picnic at preschool. Daddy, Aunt Britt, and Grandma and Grandpa's came! The boys were so excited to have so many people they love eating lunch with them! 

Christmas was a huge success! We had so much fun opening presents and playing with toys that I didn't get any pictures. 

Hutch and Grandpa Kirk in matching flannels for Christmas dinner. 

The annual hats made by Aunt Alissa! 

Will's Elf hat. Alissa out does her self every single year! 

The twins LOVE their dragon hats and have been wearing them almost every day since they got them! 

Everywhere we go the twins get compliments on their hats! 

Hutch got a king hat, but was way too wiggly for me to get a good picture of him! 

Will getting a pony ride from Aunt Alissa. 

After Christmas we spent a few days at a cabin in Helper with my family. 

The kids had a blast running around all day and playing with all the cousins. 

They all slept in the same room and were up before 6am every morning. haha. 

Hutch loved snuggling with Grandpa J.  They were so cute!

It was definitely a really good Christmas, we had so much fun spending good quality time with family!
