I Shouldn't Have Spoken So Soon...

I should have known better...that the minute I posted about Bryce sleeping through the night...it would end.  He slept 3 night in a row...and now has gone back to waking up once.  But I still can't complain.  Once is okay.  And it's usually 30 minutes or less from the time we get him up to the time he's back down.  But seriously, those 3 nights of sleeping all night were like Heaven...

I have been meaning to post these photos for weeks now!  Back in January, when Bryce was just 4 weeks old, I had a friend come over to take some pictures.  Although we took many pictures of all of the boys...they were less than cooperative, so we only got a few good ones!  We'll try, try again!  Anyway, I wanted to share the ones we did get!

PRECIOUS!

LOVE!

Sweet!

Oh man...love him holding onto my finger!

Don't you wonder what he is thinking?

My boys!

Again...if we could hear his thoughts!
The weather has really been shaping up around here!  Okay, really it's been nice all winter so I can't complain, but THIS weather is totally making me ready for full-fledged spring!  Anxious to have these boys outside every day!

Smiles for Jo!

This story is hilarious!  Braeden seems to be smitten with Bryce.  His mom tells me he talks about him all the time.  He plays at home and has a "baby" named Bryce...he just loves him.  So the other day I said "Are you going to help Jo by changing Bryce's diaper?"  He said "Yea!" with a huge smile on his face!  So...Jo summoned him to help the other day...ha!

Tummy time at Jo's!
This past weekend we headed to Iowa.  We left a little bit late because Zane came home from school saying he didn't feel well.  He was complaining about his legs hurting.  I have had 3 cases of influenza A in my class this past week, so I was scared that's what he was getting.  So I took his temperature, but it was fine.  I gave him some tylenol for his legs.  In about 15 minutes he was jumping all over the place!  So...we decided that since there was no fever we could head home.  The closer we got...the more Zane was sneezing and stuffy...that darn Iowa air!  He got worse as the weekend wore on.  Saturday afternoon he ended up with a 101 temperature and his head was just full.  So we kept him on tylenol all weekend and he seemed to be fine...just a stuffy head...so we stayed on top of that.  Saturday we spent some time with my parents and Sunday we went to Grandma Beggs' for dinner.  The boys had so much fun playing there! 
Zane's eyes were super red and scratchy all weekend...so grandma gave him tea bags to make them better.  He was hilarious with them!  Even took them in the van with us and put them under his sunglasses.  The poor kid looked strange with tea running down his face!

Mason vacuuming at Grandma Hammer's house!

This week is Zane's spring break, so Grandma Farmer offered to have the older two boys stay on the farm for the week.  She actually offered for all 3 boys...but I wasn't sure I was ready to be away from Bryce that long yet!  So my excuse for not posting this until Wednesday is that we've been enjoying our time with one child!  Weird how I seem to have LESS time to get things done with LESS kids here!

I also have a couple of videos I've been trying to upload for 3 days now...and I'm just giving up for now.  Hopefully I can get them on here soon!!!
