More of Jimmy...

First Snowman

The girls and Jim got me this moose as a welcome home gift after Jimmy was born.

His tophat blew off.

Pictures from Thanksgiving!

Grandma Joyce and Grandpy visited this year for Thanksgiving (American Thanksgiving). We had a big crowd this year. Lots of fun. Cooked a full meal at 9 months pregnant...love it!

James Dennis Judd

Well, it has been awhile! But here are some more pics of little Jimmy. He is doing good. He eats a ton and is kinda gassy. He sleeps well though and has a good disposition. He kinda reminds me of Reilly. Not as easy of a baby as Emily was...more maitanance, like Reilly. And boy, he hates getting his diaper changed. Luckily I am already ammune to the screetching cries! Anyway, he is so lovable and cuddly ;0) He is now starting to feed (nurse) well...it was a struggle this time. That threw me off a bit. The girls breastfed so easy. Anyway, we supplemented and now he is on track, nursing well.

Reilly the super helper (#1 big sis in the world)

This is pretty much him. He likes to cry around me. I am trying not to take it personally.

He is funny looking isn't he?

Emily loves to help too! I am so lucky. They love him so much. (Do think that will wear off?)

The girls are always hovering.

Wishlists

I have posted "Wishlists" for the kids on Amazon.com. Go to "WishLists" and then search under "Kristine Judd" or my email address. You don't need to shop online. Most things can be purchased at Target, Walmart, ToysRUs or Amazon.com. Hope that answers all questions about Christmas ;0)

Halloween 2009

Reilly's Pumpkin

Emily and Jimmy's pumpkin (love the drool)

The crew (Sarina, Ali, Ethan, Reilly, Emily, Connor and Billy)...and Mr. Martin

Mom decided to join in...

Emily was originally going to be a hula-girl but decided to be the same as Reilly in the end. I had told them no fairies or princesses this year!

Big Ben's Pumpkins with the Martins

We went to get some pumpkins with our neighbors...the girls had a blast just running through the corn fields and near-by fields...

We are so lucky to have three great little girls right across the street ;0)

St. Charles Scarcrow Festival

A cold and windy day but we braved it to attend the St. Charles Scarecrow Festival. It was great fun and will definately head back next year!

Emily at gymnastics

Emily loves, loves, loves gymnastics. It is her absolute favorite thing. She has decided to have a gymnastics party for her 4th birthday in January.

Siatic Nerves

Not sure if I will spell this right, but...little Jimmy has decided to plant himself on my siatic nerve. OUCH!!! Very huge OUCH!!! I didn't have this with the girls so I didn't know what it was. I kinda delt with a dull pain in my lowerback and butt for a few weeks with the occasional sharp jab or shreiking pain. Then it was like never-ending pain. Anyway, the doctor gave me Tylenol 3s and Jimmy decided to move back to a good position. So, I hope he stays there for the next 6 weeks! ;0) I officially declare this is definately it ;0) No more pregnancies!!!!...(probably ;0)

Jimmy

30 weeks and feeling great. Jimmy is definately a mover\kicker\total body disturber and must have a ton of hair because the heartburn is crazy. I think he will be nuts. He is almost 3lbs now and I measuring normal so he should be average size. I love this pregnancy...I have only gained 2olbs and can't believe how great I feel compared with the other two! The first 4 months were rough but since then it has been the opposite. Just a bit tired and lots of pressure on my bones now...but all normal inconviences of pregnancy. This is all making me think I could do another!!!!

Nursery is done. We are overloaded with stuff and cloths so totally prepared. Can't wait to see what he looks like!

Flower Girls!

September 13th - Grandma Judd became Grandma Lane! The girls were very excited to be flower girls...to get all fancied up! Reilly had a hilarious pout down the aisle but was so excited to be able to eat tons of sweets that day! Emily was beaming down the aisle and loved getting her hair done with curls and flowers!

Will post more pics of the wedding once I give the pics to Barb!

Kindergarten

Reilly at her "Sneak Peak". She loves that she has a locker!

First Day...of course, we needed a new dress.

Smiles getting off the bus on the first day...Yeah!

Reilly is doing great and to our surprise seems to enjoy Kindergarten. She loves her teacher, Mrs. Parkhill, a White Sox Fan. She loves her class and has a new friend, Melanie. She loves the bus, gets to sit with Ali - our neighbor who isn't in the same class :0( and has also made a new bus friend, Vanessa. She doesn't complain (although she tells me she wishes she didn't have to go everyday) and has tons to tell me when she gets home.

I am bad mom - no picks of Emily at school. Oops!

Reilly's 5th Birthday - August 22nd

Reilly had a great 5th birthday. She had the best time, got completely spoiled and both kids were excellent all day (small miracle!). We had a kid's party with some neighbors, some school friends, some family friends and of course, Devin. We went to Bouncetown! A huge warehouse of inflatable jumping thingies...We then came home and had a small family party. Her cake and decorations she picked out were "Madagascar 2"

Reilly says:

Favorite moment: That she went to Bouncetown

Favorite toy: Scooter and Barbie school set

First present we openned was the Polly Pocket Cruise ship from Grandma Joyce and Grandpy. This kept the girls really busy while we got ready for her birthday bashes! The girls love, love, love Polly Pockets (and Polly Pocket princesses) and play with them everyday since Reilly was 2 1/2...no joke!

Her decorations she picked were from "Madagascar 2" the movie.

Here she is on her thrown at Bouncetown

The whole gang of kids at Bouncetown

Openning her Scooter from Grandma Joyce and Grandpy!

Openning her Julien doll from Emily and her Alex doll from Mom and Dad (characters from Madagascar - you should really know this!!!!). Her favorite movie for the last year or so and her favorite characters...she also loves the TV spin-off of the movie "The Penguins of Madagascar" which is on everyday in our house ;0)
