The Bostrom Family

We are loving this rainy semi-warm Sunday afternoon. Relaxing the day away!

Our little girl is already 4 months old!!! I can't believe I have n't taken the time to post her adorable pictures...or maybe when the kids finally go to bed, I fall asleep too..hehe. Piper's latest accomplishments is le arning how to roll over and eating rice cereal! What a big girl she is. We were all sitting down for dinner while Piper played on her play-mat when she surprised herself by rolling over! It was so funny. Max and Cooper starting saying over and over, "She rolled over!". Piper didn' t really know what to do for a the few minutes it took for me to take these ad orable pictu res. That was about 3 weeks ago now. Today she actually rolled over onto her belly, got frustra ted, and rolled back onto her back. It only happened once, but it happened! I started feeding her rice cereal two weeks ago. I love the pictures of her first tastes. She looks so confused and worried at the same time...so sweet. It only took her about 4 or 5 days to re...

I can't believe that my little man is already 3! He will be in Kindergarten a little over 2 years from now and then he might as well be in middle school it will go by so quickly! We were lucky enough to celebrate his birthday with all of our family. We had a sweet cake and present time with the Bostroms in Greenville, SC and then had a day of fun here in Knoxville to celebrate the big day. On Max's birthday we took the whole family, including Grandad and CC, to a big jump house. There were lots of big inflatables for us all to climb and jump on. Max and Cooper played so hard. It was really hard to keep up with them. They kept wanting Jeff or I to follow them through a maze and I must admit that it was really difficult for me to climb through it. It was what I would imagine a "boot camp" maze to be if it was in a primary colored inflatable. Piper even enjoyed her time snoozing in CC's arms. What a life! After a really good nap by all. We had a wonderful ...

This year we decided to let the kids make our Christmas decorations. It was a blast. These are very special memories to me.

We had a very nice and relaxed Thanksgiving. My sister and brother-in-law, Joanna and Matt, invited us over to their new house for the special occasion. We all pitched in for the meal. We brought over the cranberries and dessert (we got the easy part) while mom and dad make the ham (yum!!!). Joanna cooked most of the goodies that we all enjoyed inside while the men deep fried a turkey outside. As I said it was so relaxed! A no stress holiday is what we all needed. Unfortunately the only picture I was able to get of the boys enjoying the meal was one of Max refusing to eat...well that is normal. The boys just wanted to run and play, especially with Uncle Matt around. Cooper and I enjoyed looking up at the Christmas lights from the floor. He is in such a cuddly stage and I just love it! Piper was just a Fall angel in her cute brown dress. She spent the night relaxing among her brothers who literally "ran" the house. It won't be long before little Abby is born an...
