Who's Who ~ Answers

Who's Who ~ Part 1
Lauren is by far the best eater, I know her size doesn't show it, but she is!
1. Is the BEST eater.
She will lay in her bed and talk and play with her silky as long as you'll let her!
2. Can lay in the bed happy for hours.
It's just an irresistible smile!
3. Smile can light up the room.
I guess this one comes from being the best eater!
4. Everything automatically goes straight into his/her mouth.
And to think, people say she has none of me in her!!
5. Loves to talk.
Will resist the urge to laugh as long as she can, when she has to, it's short and sweet!
6. Hates to laugh out loud.
Hannah Noelle has hazel, Matt, Cannon, Gunner and Avery have blue and Lauren and Mommy have brown.
7. Has different color eyes than all siblings.
This was probably the first thing I said when I saw her in the NICU. "Oh, sweet baby, you'll never be able to wear flip flops."
8. GINORMOUS feet.
Will hunt down every toy, bring it to her corner and REFUSE to share!
9. Playground Bully!!!!

Who's Who ~ Parte Dois
Anytime you say something in your "sweet voice" to Gunner, he'll tuck his head down! Irresistible!
1. Is the only one with a Shy Bone.
Loves to play with all of the "hi-tech" toys.
2. Interacts the best with toys.
Loves, loves staring and laughing at the ceiling!
3. Totally infatuated with the ceiling.
Can jump higher than me! :)
4. Is part kangaroo.

It's amazing that gravity doesn't take over!
5. Best independent sitter.

On the bottom and oh, so SHARP!
6. Has two teeth.

If you look at him and laugh, he'll laugh back.
7. Easiest to make laugh.

Doesn't matter what brand diaper, how big of a size, he's just a peeing machine!
8. Pee's his/her clothes on a routine basis.

His bed is closest to the blinds (all cords out of reach!) and he will kick them with his feet! It's such a sweet sound!
9. Loves to play in bed for a while before going to sleep.



Who's Who ~ Partie Trois

Avery, albeit an army crawl, can make it anywhere before you bat your eye!
1. Most mobile.
Makes this absolutely annoying yet adorable grr out every time you walk past her!
2. Sounds like a vulture.
Will aggravate Cannon to no end! She knows he's afraid of loud noises so she'll crawl up behind him and start laughing, he in turn, starts screaming!
3. Loves to antagonize.
Would rather not have breakfast, even her breakfast bottle!
4. Hates breakfast.
She'll wake up around 4 most mornings and make her vulture noise a couple of times to see if we'll come, we've learned her tricks so we don't come anymore!
5. Wakes up in the middle of the night on occasion.
She'll smile at the ground, the ceiling, her clothes, her brother crying, anything!
6. Smiles at everything.
Has the most mischievous look, especially when heading towards Cannon.
7. Always looks like he/she is fixing to get in trouble.
We're going to be in BIG trouble if this holds true!
8. Going to be the Ring Leader.
She was on two a day meds on top of all the regular preemie meds for 90 days due to the
TB exposure she had.
9. Takes the prize for most medicine intake.

Cannon is a mommy's boy and his girlfriend, Addison, has red hair too!
1. Has a thing for Red Heads.
It's absolutely the most un-normal thing to hear coming out of a baby's mouth!
2. Has the most ear piercing cry.
This stems from having the worst cry!
3. Normally always the first to be fed.
He is a climber! The mattresses don't move down on the little beds and he has tried to make an escape already!!
4. Is the main reason we decided the Port-A-Cribs had to go and we needed bigger cribs.
Up on all fours, down on belly, up on all fours, down on belly! SO CUTE!
5. Official crawler, no army scooting here.
When he gets excited and kicks, it hurts!
6. Strong as an ox.
Hates you to sneeze, cough, laugh, anything!!
7. Scared, scared, scared of loud noises.
If I leave the room and come back in later, he won't look at me, won't talk to me, nothing. It's so sweet, yet so annoying! He'll also be the one crying when Lauren steals his toys!
8. Feelings very easily hurt.
I need to get this on video for you, it's SO sweet! Doesn't make up for the annoying cry, but close!
9. Makes the cutest woo-hoo noise.

I hope you enjoyed playing along!! Most people got the girls right and the boys wrong!
We're headed to the pediatrician this morning, so please say a quick prayer for the babies!
Have a great week!

What a Weekend

This has been a CRAZY weekend!

Let's start with Thursday.
Andrea had a date, Matt had a track meet and Hannah Noelle had a T-ball game. HN rode with one of her friends home from school and to the game and I loaded up the other four and headed to the field flying solo!! I pulled up and hollered out, come get a baby! Jaime said, where's the stroller, I said, well, I didn't bring it, y'all always get them out anyway, one less thing I had to load and unload!! I'm not sure from the time we unloaded until we reloaded that I held a baby. Between grandparents, adopted grandparents, "aunts" and close friends, we had them WAY outnumbered! We've learned the secret to success is having them outnumbered!!

Cannon with Me-Me
(Mama Kathy, Valerie's Mom)

Lauren with Aunt Valerie
Jaime telling HN to GOOOOOO!
Be-Be holding Avery
(Be-Be is camera shy! She reads the blog though,
so let's give her some comment love because we
COULD NOT do it without her and Paw-Paw!)
Paw-Paw with Gunner
CC with the G-Man

Saturday Night

Hannah Noelle was in a ball for the Lockhearts Civic Organization as an Attendant to the Queen. The theme this year was Belles of the Ball. Andrea and I were both in this Organization although it was called Lockhearts Social Club back in the day. She and I were presidents our senior years and were also named Queen at each of our senior Roseballs. The attendants to the queen Andrea's year are already in college!! Unfortunately, mommy brain has taken over and I don't remember who the attendants were my year!
She was so excited to be in the "Prom."
We decided once again since we had them outnumbered we would Go For It!

Pae-Pae with two of her boys!

Emma Kate and Hannah Noelle

used in the making of those bows?)

Thanks Ms. Meagan, who just by the way, looked BEAUTIFUL!!
Sunday
I have not felt good since Friday and staying at home only makes it worse, so we decided to brave Wal-Mart for the first time with the Fab 5 and then, we were feeling even more froggy, and we went to the McDonald's Drive Thru for lunch and took it to the park and had a Pic-a-Nic!


Lauren asking the birds to please not poop on her!
I think Cannon has taken over Cullen's Popeye Impersonation!
Avery going after HN's toes!
Packed Lunches are for the WEAK!
Who needs birds when you've got Gunner
to clean up the leftover fries!
Fighting over toys!
Oh, I ponder the thought!
And he DID NOT like the grass!
Daddy with Gunner and Lauren
Tha' Pic-A-Nic

I guess Can-Man was tired!!!!

It was a great weekend, we're just glad it's OVER! I called in sick to work for tomorrow so I will go to the doctor and hopefully get out of this deep dark hole of sickness that I'm in!! Seriously, I grabbed my cell phone, went to the back room, called the house, Matt answered and I said, sir, I'm not going to be able to make it to work tomorrow, I just don't feel too well! Thank goodness for a SWEET husband!! He's going to take one for the team and go in late tomorrow so I can go see the doc. Thanks, Matthew Da-Wayne!!!

This Little Corner is the Future Home of.......

The Quad Table
We asked the babies what they
thought about it and the responses were...
It looks good, but you didn't
show them my room! ~ Cannon
Where's the refrigerator
going to go? ~ Gunner
Mom, do you really think people can
tell what it looks like from those pictures?
They might as well close their eyes!
~ Avery
Show them where my hair
products are going to go!!
~Lauren

We can't wait for it to be done!
We're told the inside is the longest part.
They just poured the slab on Friday and this is where we are today!
Each of the chil' ren will have their own room
and then the playroom to demolish!

Have a Great Week!
