Zane in Mom's eyes.
I have always said this about Zane, when he was born and I looked into his eyes for the first time he had so much spirit in them. Three years later, he is still full of spirit.
Zane has a strong will and is always willing to tell it how it is. I was setting up his slide and I went into ask Symen a question, honestly I forgot about the slide. Zane comes in with his hands on his hips, "MOM, wheren't you suppose to be doing something." He also wants things done exactly his way. If he is talking to Symen and I try to answer I get, "Mom, I was talkin to Dad."
Zane is Mr. Personalty and everyone friend. He is always smiling and laughing. He loves to play by himself or with the older kids. I love that when he knows he is in trouble, he gives me the cheesiest smile. Because by flashing his big eyes and silly grin, he "thinks" he gets away with it. I have to admit, he usually does. I have a feeling those big eyes are going to get me into big trouble when he is a teenager. Zane, is a mama's boy and I love it. I often look at him and just want to sweep him up in my arms as squeeze him.


Zaner, you can light up a room with your smile.
I love you Buddy.
Mom

What to do on a rainy day?

jump on a trampoline, of course.

the kids were having so much fun jumping in the pouring rain.

All but one.

4 months

What a month it has been. I have started working on rolling over. I get about 1/2 way, then I quit. I love to talk. I will lay and the floor and talk for 30 minutes. I don't like my crib. So my mom will let me sleep in her bed, as long as I sleep good for her. I still love to eat, it shows in my weight, I am a big boy. And as always, I am a happy boy. My brothers, sister, cousins, and my grandma are always playing with me. Life is good. Next month should be exciting, my mom keeps talking about cereal.

Liquid Gold...

That is what we call fresh squeezed orange juice.

It is even better when we make it with Grandma Becky.

Sunny day at the park...

We are enjoying life here in Arizona. On our day of school, I loaded up the kiddos and headed to the park. The grass was green, the weather was perfect, and kids had a blast.

Brett came along to help with the kids. We even got some time to play catch.

Zane got his first baseball practice.

The kid got potential.

We had a great afternoon at the park. We are definitly enjoying the nice weather while we have it.

Crash...again

They say you get the kind of kids that you were.

Well, if that is true, Zane is my kid.

The kids were outside playing in the Landcuiser, while I was cooking. I here Emilee scream "Zane is bleeding!" Honestly, I was not alarmed. The kid is always bleeding. Until, I see Jim caring the kid in the house and the blood coming between his little fingers.

No worries, nothing a cold wash cloth, Dad's butterflying skills, and a kiss from Mom can't heal.

By the way this is what happens when you get out of the Landcuiser and fall flat on your face on to concert.

Brothers

I LOVE that I have 3 boys. Garrit and Zane enjoy playing Starwars, Indiana Jones, and anything boy together. I can't wait until Krew is out there playing with them. I hope that the boys remain close and treasure their friendship.
