Landon's Christmas program

Last week Landon and his friends at school had their Christmas program. It was so cute and they did a great job singing Christmas songs. My pictures were taken from a semi long distance so they are not the best quality.

Landon and his school friends getting ready to sing

 Singing jingle bells and ringing his bell. I think his class were donkeys, which explains the hat

Not sure if this is a yawn or he's singing

No Christmas program is complete without the nose picking picture. haha

Merry Christmas!

Family Christmas pictures and Christmas card

My very talented friend Sarah came over to our home last weekend and took lots of great Christmas pictures of my family of four. We decided to take them at home for Houston's health

Wordless Wednesday

Happy 3 months Houston

Today Houston is 3 months old. He is 3 months old and I am still 2 days away from my original due date. I cant believe he entered this world 3 months ago at a mere 26 weeks 5 days. The last three months have for sure been a roller coaster with lots of ups and downs. We are so blessed to have him as our son and for him to be as healthy as he is for being born so premature. I would have never imagined I would be writing his 3 month post and not even reached my due date of Dec 5th, but I am and that is how amazing God is and proof that our plans are not always his plans. After 67 days in the NICU and being discharged with no health problems here is pictures of our miracle baby.

 Houston and BIG brother Landon

Here are Houston's stats:

• 8lbs 8oz.
• newborn clothes
• size 1 diaper
• when he does tummy time he can lift his head up and move it from side to side
• he has rolled over once
• moves eyes to follow things like light and noise
• he still sleeps pretty much through the day
• he eats every 3 to 4 hours, 4oz each feeding
• he sleeps through the night from 11pm to 4am
• A developmental specialist came to evaluate him yesterday and she said he is on a 1 to 2 month level and he did wonderful during his evaluation.

 He is truly a miracle baby and a gift from God and we are so in love with him

Santa Visit

Last week I took the boys to visit Santa. For Houston's health we went right when Santa opened and on a weekday. There were not a lot of people and I didn't get him out till right when Santa was ready for him. I asked Santa NOT to touch him so that is why Houston is wrapped in a blanket. Yes I'm one of those mom's, but he's a preemie so I HAVE to be careful. I was a little nervous about Santa and Landon this year. The last two years he did NOT like Santa, but this year Landon was all about Santa and told him everything he wanted for Christmas. I was impressed. Anyway here is my boys with Santa

 I LOVE seeing this picture and what a miracle Houston is. I'm blessed to have two healthy boys. This time last Christmas I was praying I would have this exact picture in 2011. A picture with TWO of my babies.

This is Landon last year with Santa. He did NOT like Santa at all and every picture with Santa he is crying, screaming and trying to get away from him as fast as possible.

His first time visiting Santa; Christmas 2009
