Nicklecade, 4 weeks old and more

Last Monday Tony took off work a bit early and took little guy to his Aunt Ketty's house then Tony and I spent some fun time with just Elizabeth. We took her to Nicklecade and she was in heaven! She LOVED riding the little rides, and playing some games, Tony and mostly I played the nickle pusher machines to win her lots of tickets, so at the end she got some really fun prizes! Then we went over to Subway for dinner, we had such a good time, it was nice to be able to take a break from getting after her all the time, and just have a good time with her. Tuesday we went up to my parents house to have dinner with them, my brother and his now fiance Jen, Elizabeth was as always good for some laughs, we had a great time and great company! Thursday Ketty picked the kids and me up and took us to Tony's work, then we went to Tony's brother Matt's house for dinner and so he could help us with our taxes which were pretty good to us this year. Elizabeth had such a good time playing in their backyard with Aaron and her Aunt Steph. Friday the kids and I went out and enjoyed the wonderful spring weather, we went to the playground and Elizabeth had such a fun time playing in the sand, then we went for a walk with a friend/neighbor and it felt so good to move again, and I realized how nice the sit and stand stroller my mom is getting us for Easter is going to be to have! But Elizabeth did a good job of staying with me. Saturday we got up got ready then headed to Bountiful to visit with my grandparents as they haven't seen little guy yet, while we were there my Aunt Susan and Theo came as well. Then we went to Centerville to the Hatch's home to get Devin's newborn pictures done, I can't wait to see them Devin was so good and as always so cute and they are so talented! We enjoyed visiting with them as well, and Elizabeth just made herself at home! After we picked up a quick lunch and headed up to Willard Bay to spend the evening with both our parents who are RVing there this weekend. Oh and Tuesday we took Devin to the dr to have his oxygen levels checked and he was holding his own so they took him off the oxygen!! He also went from weighing 7 lbs 14 oz to 8 lbs 14oz in just one week! So he's obviously thriving! Wednesday Rich(Tony's dad) took us back to the dr so she could do his 2 week check up(at 4 weeks old) but more importantly finish his newborn screening. His stats then were 9lbs 1oz, (40%) 20 3/4 inches, (50%) and his head was in like the 10%. My kids and their tiny heads! She also heard a heart murmur She's going to watch but she hopes will just go away in a few months. Well here are the pics from the last little while.
