4 Month Check up...the Moose weighs 17lbs and is 26 inches long now. He got his second round of shots and was not thrilled. He is starting cereal and fruits and enjoying it. He is already in 6-9 month clothes and growing. Dakota only has 10 lbs on him now...watch out big brother.
Preston's 1st Christmas. We went to Nana and Papa Jack's Christmas Eve got lots of great toys. Great Grandma Marie loved on Preston a bunch although he was a handful she always held him.
We went to Mema's too racked up there as well. Preston was very spoiled by everyone...hard not to spoil him.

The 6 month checkup...well he is a whopping 19lbs 12oz on February 5, 2004. 28 inches long and 45cm big ole head. He wasn't able to get his shots cause it turns out he has RSV. As of February 12, 2004 he has had 2 steroid shots and 2 breathing treatments and is on 3 differnt meds. to clear it up. I think he is on the mend but we are keeping an eye on him. His follow up appt is February 19, 2004 and that is when he should get his 6 month shots. He weighed in again today (12th) at 20lbs 2oz and we were told we can now turn his carseat to forward facing. He is otherwise a normal 6 month old he has started to sit on his own and loves to play w/ his toys and watch his big brother!!! Update as of February 19, 2004 he was given a clean bill of health and finally got his 6 month shots. Ouch. He did great actually and seems to be getting over the RSV wonderfully |

9 month check up ~ Preston is now 23 pounds 30 inches long and his head is 46 cm. He is eating table food now. He hasn't mastered crawling yet but is scooting and rolling all over the place. He cut his first tooth (finally) on April 30th it is the cutest thing ever. He loves to stand up and hold onto things including his big brother. He has a full head of dark hair and it won't be long before the first hair cut. His fave thing to do is take baths w/ his big brother he splashes all around like a fish. He is growing so big so fast and I love every minute of it!!

We all went to Quinn's moms house on Lake Lanier. Watched fireworks on their deck. Preston snoozed happily as it was to late for him to watch. All 4 of us have matching Old Navy Flag tee's that we proudly wear. |

Preston is now One Year Old!! Wow, the year has flown. He weighs in at 25lbs and is 31 1/2 inches long. He is a solid little guy. He is taking a few steps and will be walking before long I am sure. He is a wonderful baby/toddler and this year has been the best ever. He says mama, dada and ni ni (for night night) among other unknown sounds. He loves to wrestle w/ his brother sometimes a little to much. We can't wait to watch him grow in this next year.

Christmas 2004 the boys racked up again as 2 spoiled boys can. Preston really enjoyed being at Aunt Marcia and Uncle Ben's house b/c they had the dancing Santa. And of course Abby too.
Preston did not like Santa at all this year I guess the jolly man can be a little scary at this age.

19 months old ~ Well the Moose is 29lbs now and 33 inches tall. He is really starting to talk well and we can figure out what he wants...mostly!! He loves to blow kisses to everyone and say goodbye to them. Him and his brother get along as well as 2 boys can which means wrestle mania at our house most days.

| Easter Sunday ~ Preston becomes a big brother~ |
|
|
|
|
Much to my surprise my water breaks Easter Sunday Morning and we are off to have Dakota and Preston's baby sister.
Alivia Raelynn is born 3/27/05 at 1:50pm 6lbs 10 oz and 19 3/4 inches long.
Preston was not thrilled w/ Alivia at first nor was he happy w/ mommy. The first thing he said when we said here is your baby sister was NO! And ran off. That was so funny and still brings a smile to my face NO that is all he had to say about that. Of course it was to long and he was kissing her all over and loving on her. I am sure seeing big brother loving on her helped that along.
After Alivia was born the boys were then in Daddy's hands full time. Some days daddy would put the wrong shirt on the wrong kid and off to daycare they went...always funny to me when I picked them up. The 3 boys would jam all the way to daycare and doing all sorts of "boy" things. Daddy taught the boys all the things that make a mother cringe...farting on their arms, barking, slang words you name it but that was the 3 boys bound. My husband is my oldest son (ha, ha). The 3 of them had wrestle mania all the time. |

Passed away on May 23, 2005 at the age of 1.
Preston became an Angel which is a hard thing to accept. We miss our son so much and wish with everything we have that he was still with us. We look forward to the day we will be with him. I can't wait to hold my baby boy again. We will always be a family of 5!!
