What is happening with the Fifes!!! Well not really.....


Who is going to get that toy? Looks like Skyler has the upper hand. He is also a few pounds larger. He did have a Big Mac a little earlier. Skyler is now 19.9lbs. Connor is now 17.5lbs.

They are both about 27.5 inches tall. So that is over two feet. Wow I remember how many inches are in a foot.




There are the two boys laying out in the sun in their white trash swimming pool. And they love it because they are only six months.

Connor looks a little bald and Skyler looks like he has a full head of hair. I should of blown this picture up more so you could see more, but oh well. Tough luck!!!! I guess your gonna have to come see them.



What is Connor doing? Is he looking up at the stars? No!! Is He looking up at Kobe? No!! Is he looking at a fly on the ceiling? No!!
We have no idea what he is doing, but he is flexible. He loves contorting his head in different positions.

It is also a pain when we feed him because he loves to mess around with us and contort.




That is Connor sleeping. Is that comfortable? For Connor it is comfortable because he is the man and he can do whatever he wants.

He takes after Grandpa Fife and one of his Uncles which we will leave unnamed. How does he take after them? I don't know you tell me........



Well this is the end of my post because I am tired and my computer is slow. If anyone wants to pitch in $30 a month for higher speed internet that would be great. Donations can be made out to either Cassie or David Fife.

Also, I am looking for a hiking boot that I lost hiking up in the mountains. If anyone has seen it can you please let me know where it may be.

One more thing, I have an overbite that I am working on getting rid of, what is the best way of doing that? I just put it is a vise and start to clamp down on it and I stop when it hurts. I thought of having surgery. Two kids came along so that didn't happen.

Oh yeah I am also running a half-marathon and I have a brother-in-law running it with me. How bad should I beat him? Let me know and I will try to do what you say.

Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy Hanukkah!!!

And here is Skyler for the ending. He has the cutest smile in the world. He takes after his lovely mother. That is my wife if you don't know that by now. Her name is Cassie. He is adorable and he loves his bumbo seat. And he says hi to all of you and he wishes you all the very best. Goodnight now!!!!!!

6 month update

Well, as usual we are super bad at keeping up the blog!!! The boys are now 6 months old, and getting so big, and learning so much! We have their 6 month check-up in a few days and will post their stats then.

The boys eat their first veggies!!! They have been eating rice and oatmeal for a while, but started on their veggies in the middle of March.





Skyler is doing so well!! He is getting so big. He is sitting up by himself, but eventually he doubles over on to his belly, or falls onto his side. He loves to get kisses and laughs and smiles a lot. He gets rosy red cheeks sometimes! He rolls over from back to belly, and belly to back. He is drinking out of a sippy cup sometimes when he gets juice or water. His hair is finally starting to come back in, after he lost it and looked..... odd for a while. It is coming in a bit lighter, but is still darker than Connors. Skyler is such a HAPPY little baby and can entertain him self for hours with his own feet, and the sound of his own voice.

Connor is still a little smaller than Skyler... well, a lot smaller! He loves to roll onto his belly, and is rarely seen on his back, even in his sleep. He sleeps on his belly almost in the fetal position. He has started to scoot on his belly. He is in to everything around him. He likes to sit and observe everything, and then touch it all, and put it in his mouth! We really have to watch what we put around him. He likes to smile but is not as audible as Skyler. He absolutely LOVES his jumper thing that hangs from the doorway, and jumps and jumps!! It is quite entertaining to watch.





Papa Craigory and Grandma Teresa came to visit. The kids had super fun showing off for them.







Cr
aig, Cassie and David all ran the Spectrum 10K (6.2 miles)








We went down to Las Vegas for Easter and had SUPER fun. We had an egg hunt, and the cousins played around with these funny balloons later.






Most of the cousins are here. Going clockwise Kale, Toby, Connor, Matt, Aiden, Skyler and Zach.






This is Connor and Skyler with their cousin, Aiden, that is 1 month younger. Some people think that Skyler and Aiden look more alike that Skyler and Connor... I guess it is the "Wood" gene, and they do share the same middle name!





And what would Easter be without a visit from the Easter Bunny who brought the boys new sippy cups and clothes, dad
dy a shirt that says "Adorkable" and mommy some new shoes.
