I can't believe that he is 5. Where has the time gone? Stockton is such a joy in our house. He keeps us laughing until we can laugh no more. He is easy to buy for because he is all boy. If it is a weapon of any kind he is thrilled. This year he got a nerf dart gun, pixos, which I am still picking up several a day from the floor, and a Cabelas sweatshirt. He is so much like his father it makes me laugh.
We Love you Stockton. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!

The week of Halloween it was Red Ribbon week and of course they always have to have CRAZY HAIR day. This is one of my favorites and I can get really creative with the hair. Sean always has his own idea of what he wants so I don't get much say in it. This year we went for the spikey red look since it was also WEAR RED day.
I have to say this is one of my favorites for Lizz. We couldn't decide what to do until the morning of. Another brilliant idea if I do say so myself. Of course she loved the idea too until the kids at school said she looked like a hammerhead shark. That never crossed my mind but she had a good attitude about it.
I am a little late on blogging Halloween but I wanted to let everyone know how crazy and forgetful I can be. On Halloween the kids did not have school so we had a nice relaxing day. After getting Shane bathed and dressed in his cute little pumpkin shirt I wanted to make sure and get a few photos so I took some right after he was dressed and happy.
So here is the best part. Apparently sometimes I can't remember that I actually have a camera because I only got pics of Shane. After getting dressed for Trick -or- Treating we went to Grandpa Potts' house where he took some pictures of the kids, I will have to get copies from him. I kept telling myself to take one before they got ready for bed but obviously I FORGOT again. UGH!! I hope to get my memory back soon.
Time has gone by so fast. When I first had Shane I remember thinking 2-3 weeks in the NICU was a really long time. when we were in the car to come home I told Cameron that is seemed like a long time but it also seemed like a short time that we were in the hospital. It is so weird how fast time flies. The picture on the right was when we first brought him home and just barely over 5 lbs. the picture on the left was taken yesterday and pushing 10 lbs. I am so happy to see how big he has gotten.
For FHE this week we carved our pumpkins. It was about 7:30 before we got started so we were pretty sure we were in for a long night but it went rather smoothly and quickly. Shane was even in on the fun. I think he enjoyed being out in the middle of everything.
Stockton wanted one with fangs and blood.
Elizabeth had a hard time deciding what to do but after drawing it up on paper first we ended up with a "Princess" pumpkin.
Sean wanted to spend a little more time on his but it was getting late and ended up with a great pumpkin that looked almost as scary as he was.
Shane even carved a pumpkin. Ok, so I helped a lot, but it was the kids idea for the features I just cut it out.
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
So a couple of weeks ago at Elizabeth's baptism we had Shane in his carseat and in tow the oxygen and an apnea monitor. It is always an ordeal to go anywhere. One of our friends who also had a baby asked us why we didn't order a wireless baby. Of course we laughed and I replied that they took the last one. :)
Well as of last Friday we are officially WIRELESS! The oxygen is off and on Thursday evening we received a call from the Drs. office and they told us that our last download came back clean and we can be done with the apnea monitor. I was so excited I had to show Cameron by turning off the machine. Ok, I was so nervous turning it off that I turned it back on for one more night. I know sometimes it would be easier just to leave it on but we will slowly get back to normal with our perfectly healthy baby boy.
