It is hard to believe that John is actually 4 months old. He is such a happy boy, always smiling and now laughing. He takes after Ben in so many ways, but unfortuntely I think both our children ended up with my temper. John will be happy and playing and will suddenly start screaming because he is hungry! Of course at that point you can't make the bottle fast enough. This love of food did not seem to increase his size much though. John had his 4 month check up on Friday, and he is a little man...His weight is 12lbs9oz, height 24 inches, head size 16 inches. All these sound huge, but he is really in the smaller quater of babies his age. Ben and I contribute his small size to how active he is. He has figured out how to roll over both ways, so now he is rolling aroung the room. Nettie is getting bigger every day and is loving being in the pool this summer. We had to go out and buy a pool for the backyard. This makes the hot summer days that we have had bearable for all.
It is hard to believe this month is almost over, we are looking forward to a busy July. We will continue to try to post updates every couple of weeks.

Getting ready for vacation

It is amazing how quickly your kids grow up. John is 3 1/2 months old now and rolled over from his back to his belly last night. How he decided to go for the harder way to roll over first I will never know, but my kids are stubborn. (They get that from their father:)). We are getting ready to head to Texas for Paul's wedding, everyone is very excited and can't wait for the big day. Nettie go her haircut this week for the occasion and now wants to go get her haircut everyday!

It is interesting going from even having one kid to get ready for a trip to two kids. I think that I have packed everything that will entertain both kids for the next few days, but have gotten to the point that I know every where we go there are stores and if something is that important it can be bought. Of course, Nettie's current Dora obession makes packing a little more difficult, although we do have the swimsuit and the pajamas.

The other big news with the Wismer's is that we have a new addition to the family. Her name is Stella and she is a Silver 2008 Subuaru Outback. We were very excited to get the new car, although we hadn't really considered getting a 2008 model, but she is beautiful. Betty Boop (the Jeep) was old and tired and need to be traded in before she started to cost us too much money. I will add pictures of Stella soon!
