Here are pictures that I have promised...it will be a long post!

Here is Leah causing trouble...you cannot see it clearly, but her entire body was covered in stickers.

Here is Micah stuck in the table...he opens the table up, puts his hand in and then closes it...then he screams, someone removes his hand and he does it again...when do they learn cause and effect????

Here are some pictures of Noah patting Leah to sleep...or trying to put her to sleep...she did NOT take a nap that day and she was miserable!



In an attempt to bribe the kids to behave last Friday when they were home with me, I pulled out the paint...I was very brave and they had a terrific time. Noah does not get himself dirty, but the princess does...here are some samples of what they made.



Here are some pictures of Noah trying to fix one of Leah's toys...he was so cute with it.



Noah at the Minor League Baseball game with Daddy...he loved it! The thing he talks about most are the fireworks that get shot up after a homerun. The funniest thing is this...Noah calls all sports "football games", poor thing, he will have to learn the difference.




Birthday Fun! Here are some pics of the kiddos...the baby in the shots with Micah is Cousin Kyle, visiting from Indy. We were so excited that he got to share Leah's birthday with us (Aunt Jessie too of course!)





Here is the princess with her mountains of gifts. She so does not need ANYTHING! She is so spoiled!





And now....CAKE!!!! Notice the difference between Micah & Leah compared to Noah.










The first day of school...well, they only had a one day break from school, but today was the first day in their new classrooms. Leah is in Preschool B and Noah is in Pre-Kindergarten. Check out Leah's cute shoes! The two of Micah just go to show how mischievious he really is...he crawled up onto the toy and got stuck there...

Okay...you guessed it!

Yes, Micah is older than Jacob, but it does not look that way...

I just want to quote my dear friend Cindy (Jacob's mom)...okay, I can't quote b/c now I can't find the email, but she wrote to me to ask why I was trying to make her Jake look like a moose! New nicknames...Jacob=moose, Micah=mouse.

But really...Micah is 13 months old and Jacob is 10 months old.

Micah Online

Hi Everyone...a couple weeks ago a member of a support group that I belong to was looking for CHD stories to publish on her nonprofit's website, so I volunteered Micah's story. Please click on this link, http://www.kidswithheart.org/ and you will find Micah's story, it starts with a little blurb at the beginning and then there is a link to click on to get his whole story. This is one of the nonprofits that fund CHD stuff...plus they have really cool items for purchase! You can make a donation in his honor as well.
Hugs,
Samantha
P.S. I am posting this everywhere...so you will find it on all my sites!
Here's a picture of the little guy, getting in trouble of course! As a side...he has broken the kids Apple keyboard and the DVD player in a matter of just two days...I think we need to find a way to control this one!

The kiddos...again!

Oranges...we found something other than cake/cupcakes that Micah will fight to eat! Leah too...




The trouble maker...you thought I was going to put pictures of Micah here, didn't you??? Well, Noah was showing his feisty side the last few days and playing around!




Here are Micah and his best friend Jacob...I am taking a poll...which one is older??? There is a poll for this at the top of the blog to the right...play along!





Notice what Leah is holding to her check...it is Grey Poupon...she got injured last night by running right into the couch...she is not the most graceful, but hopefully dance will help that, anyway...she wanted ice for her face...Jon did not want her to have any ice, so he handed her the Grey Poupon, which she used as an ice pack for about 5 minutes...is this mean of us or not???

Here are some more of Mr. Micah...there is also a picture with Uncle Danny in there...
