Our Little Big Man is now 2!

Monday, February 23rd our youngest, Bridger Joseph Warth turned two years old!

Day of Birth

7lbs. 14 ounces 20 1/2 inches long

Now 23lbs.

When our children turn two they graduate from the crib to a twin size bed. In almost every circumstance it's been just in time for the arrival of our next child. I was nervous that by doing this Bridger wouldn't want to take naps anymore. He has always been a great sleeper, just lay him down and walk away kind of kid. I was just worried with the "new" found freedom we might run into a few problems. The first time he ever tried his new big boy bed happened to be at nap time. He got out of bed 3 times and then finally decided it wasn't a battle he wanted to take on. He has now stayed in bed every time it's bed or nap time! We feel so blessed he is such a good boy.

It's sure to be a ZOO, as Bridger turns TWO!!!!

Bridger had a great turn out for his Zoo party! We had a total of 12 critters running around in our zoo. We ate pizza, made animal puppets and played an assortment of animal games. A big thank you for all the mothers that stayed and helped. Ambur you were a huge help and a great substitute for my sister, since she couldn't be there due to work.

We of course all had a Roaring good time!

No Lion, Bridger had a great time at his Zoo party!

Bridger was spoiled with all kinds of animal gifts.

A minor misprint

Here's one more misprint for Jay Leno's Headlines! See if you can find the error. After spell checking, printing and delivering all these invitations for Bridger's 2nd birthday party we started having the phone ring off the hook. I had questions as to if I needed the "critters" to be salted and peppered before being dropped off for the party. I actually prefer Tony Chacheres, I replied!

Valentines Day Fun

This year for Valentines Day, Rob ended up having to work. So I volunteered to watch a friend's kids so they could go out and then invited April and the cousins over to make a party out of it. We ate heart shaped pizzas, made crafts, decorated cupcakes and ate strawberries dipped in chocolate.

Heart Attack!

Eat your heart out!

Kiss me, I'm cute!

"I've got my eye on you!"

Thanks to Family Fun magazine we found lots of fun craft ideas. We even made these gifts for our school and primary teachers.

The dreaded Friday Spelling Tests

Sierra is currently 5 years old and is in kindergarten. Each week she is given 5 spelling words to learn and practice. Every Friday she has a spelling test on these words. This particular week her words were, "must, hog, few, that, and was." Not all words that are easy to sound out either. We were thrilled to find out Sierra scored a 4 out of 5 on this spelling test. One of her best ones yet! I was begining to think she may have test anxiety. Every Thursday night, I hear the excuses of why she shouldn't have to go to school on spelling test day. Once she even used the fact she thought it was to foggy to drive to school," it's just to dangerous mom!" I think she is finally understanding the concept along with lots of games and songs we've made up at home we are finally seeing some progress and excitement on her part. For this job well done we took her and the rest of the family to see a movie of her choice. She chose to see Tale of Despereaux.

The kindergarten level is no longer what you and I remember it as. Coloring, Dress-ups, ABC's and 123's. It's now the first grade level. These children are learning to read and write sentences.

It's a BOY!

Here is a full body shot of our baby boy. As clearly seen in this picture he is a BOY!
Our little guy now weighs 9 ounces and is measuring to be due on June 30th. He gave us a thumbs up at one point during the ultra sound and we also got a picture of him sticking his tongue out at us. He already has so much personality for the camera! We currently have no ideas for boy names, but will gladly take any suggestions. Sierra was a bit bummed the baby wasn't a girl but now has excepted she will be the only princess and is excited to think up a name for him. She has already suggested Kidger, Bryan, and Sidger. Robbie is thrilled it's a BOY just like him, and Bridger knows there is a baby in mommy's tummy! We all are very excited to welcome this little guy into our family. I just hope the kids understand we are only half way there!
