Laker kids

At our house we ♥ the Lakers!

Aren't these the CUTEST Laker fans you ever did see?

Just ADORABLE!!

Just chillin'!

Oh my! I love these kiddos!

My 6th month old!

Happy Half-Birthday to Liam! I can't believe my baby is 6 months old!! (I'm way behind posting this - oops!!)

At his 6 month check up he was:

Height: 25 inches

Weight: 13 lbs. 5 oz.

Nicknames: Bud, Buddy, Bubs, Bubby, tiny guy, little man (he may think his name is Buddy - just like Mya thought her name was Baby for awhile -oops!! :)

His hair is mostly a soft brown color but looks like it is getting lighter and is even blonde in areas. His eyes are a deep brown - just like momma's.

He's been sitting up (on his own for a few seconds and for long periods with a little support from the Boppy) and rolling (mostly from back to side to tummy - still working on tummy to back.) He loves to be on his tummy and pushes up so he is almost in the "crawl position". He is a very observant baby and loves to check everything out. He does NOT like to eat from a spoon so he won't eat cereal or baby food yet. He always pushes the spoon away - it's kind of funny! (UPDATE: He finally ate peas from a spoon yesterday - I was so happy!! It only took me a month of trying!)

We sure do love our little guy! He is such a fun and sweet baby and we are so happy he is part of our family!

Our January

New Years Day

We rocked in the New Year!! Welcome 2010!

Daddy's Birthday!

We celebrated Daddy's birthday with a pizza party, a yummy cake that Mya helped make and lots of wii playing!

Liam is 4 months old

Liam turned 4 months in January. We sure do love our little guy! He is getting so big and learning to do new things everyday. He loves to laugh at his big sister and talk. Mommy loves having long conversations with him.

4 months stats-

Height: 24 3/4 inches

Weight: 12 pounds 4 ounces

He loves his stuffed doggy, talking, getting his diaper changed, standing and sitting up, holding onto and chewing on anything he can get his little hands on, swinging, sitting with Daddy and Mya.

He doesn't like baths, binkies, having clothes pulled over his head.

Best buddies!

Jesus wants me for a Sunbeam

Mya is officially a Sunbeam. She LOVES going to Primary with all the other "big" kids. She loves singing time and her teachers!

Dance Time

We started Mya in a dance class. It's a 1 hour class of ballet and tap and goes for 6 weeks. She loves it and does really well when she pays attention. I'm not crazy about the teacher so we will be putting her in another class next time.

Snow Day

We got some snow one day in January! It rained for most of the morning but turned to snow in the afternoon. The ground was so wet from all the rain that the snow didn't stick very well and it was mostly a very wet snow. But Mya loved it anyway and thought playing in the backyard while it was snowing was lots of fun! It's hard to see the snow in the pictures but it was coming down pretty good. It's always fun when it snows in Vegas!!

This is my favorite picture! Catching snow flakes on her tongue. Doesn't that look like fun?!

I'm a BIG girl now!

Mya is officially potty trained! I couldn't be more thrilled!! It was all her idea One day she came downstairs with panties in her hand and said she wanted to wear them. Then she went and sat on the potty. We sang the potty song and did the potty dance and gave lots of hugs and high fives! She was so excited! She goes all by herself and only had a couple of accidents. She's even waking up dry! We love our BIG girl! Next challenge is getting her to sit on the big potty!

A Bartlett Christmas 2009!

Christmas Eve 2009

We had a very nice Christmas Eve. It was very low key this year. We just spent the day together then went to dinner (cuz momma doesn't like to cook on Christmas Eve!!) and came home to watch Christmas movies and open our traditional present of Christmas pajamas. It was a very lovely day!

Mya loving on her baby brother!

Mya and Liam showing off their new matching pajamas! I was totally in LOVE with their pajamas this year - so cute!

Christmas Day 2009

We woke up Christmas morning to lots of excited giggles from Miss Mya. She was pretty excited to go downstairs and see what Santa had left. She kept saying "I'm so excited, I'm so excited!" So cute!! She spied the train set & table and chairs that Santa left from the stairs. She was so overjoyed she ran down the stairs! I loved watching the pure "JOY" on her face - very fun!! It was a very wonderful Christmas at the Bartlett house. Santa was very good to us this year!

Playing with the train set that Santa set up!

Mya got a tea set to go with her table and chairs. She loves having tea parties!

She even went upstairs to get her "friends" to have a tea party with her! So cute!!

More fun presents to open!

Her favorite - Snow White!!

A cute picture of Liam. He is such a good baby! So happy all the time!

More train time!

Daddy and Mya built a BIG track so Mya could play with all of her trains. They both had lots of fun with this!!

Can you see the excitement on Mya's face? I love it!!

Happiness!!

So yummy! LOVE this little guy!

We wish you a merry Christmas and a happy New Year!

The time has come for family pictures to be taken and the Christmas cards to be mailed and it just hasn't happened yet again! So here is my attempt at this years Christmas card in all of it's Christmasy cuteness! (My kids are just adorable aren't they!! Haha!!)

We hope you have a very Merry Christmas and a wonderful New Year!
