Yet another Jenkins update






Matthew had his four month check up today! Can you believe it has been four months since he was born! He is 14 lbs. 6 oz. and still 24 1/2 inches long. The Dr. said he is growing fine. She decided to change his reflux medication so maybe that will help with trowing up. She wants me to start spacing out his feedings to every 3 hours instead of every two. Boy am I excited for that. It can be so draining nursing him every 2 hours. He just started eating rice cereal last night and he enjoyed it very much!! (FYI he has cereal in his mouth not throw-up in the pictures) The Dr asked if he went a little longer between meals because he was fuller, He didn't. He still wanted to eat 2 hours from when he was nursed! She said that he has set himself on such a schedule that he just thinks he needs to eat that often. I hope that changing his schedule these next few days goes smoothly. And the girls, they are having a blast at karate. They have their first belt test on Friday at 5 o'clock. So If you think of them say a little prayer. And my crazy son, well he is just that, CRAZY!! We went to my mom's for her birthday this past weekend and every chance he got he was digging into the cake. I am sure if we would have let him he would have polished the entire thing off! he did get to polish off the last piece though!! And the boys took thier first bath together! It was cute. anyways I will post again soon and maybe I will put up some Karate pics of the girls next time.

Sargent Adrianne




So Adrianne participates in the school safety patrol at her school. Groups of 5 Th and 6 Th graders help cross kids across the street before and after school. She was very excited to do it again this year because in 6 Th grade you can be a Sargent if the teacher in charge thinks you have done a good job. Adrianne's group last year was the best group which helped their school score an A for their grade from the city. Today was her first day as Sargent!! I am so proud of her!!

My crazy son



So this is what Marcus does while he supposed to be sleeping!!! Mind you when I put him down for his nap he has a diaper on and is fully clothed. His room is clean too!! The He is the craziest kid I have ever known!!!

The pictures are what I see when I go to check on him and tell him to lay back down!

The many faces of Matthew




Matthew has such a fun personality. He is always making such cute facial expressions. Most of the time he is smiling but he makes a lot of different faces too.

At Elliots 1st Birthday!





2 weekends ago we went to Bakersfield for Elliot's 1st b-day. The kids had a blast! I think there was at least 20 kids at the birthday, it was truly a kids birthday party!

Twins?? No wait Cousins!!





So it has been a while since I have posted we have been kind of busy. This last weekend my brother was home for 3 days. We had a great time with him. We also got to see Crystal and her growing family! Tyler is so big he is only 1 inch shorter than Matthew and only 8 oz. lighter! They are practically twins! They are too cute together.

I can't wait until they get bigger!!
