Happy Birthday Jack Maxwell!

2 years ago today our beautiful baby boy Jack Maxwell Limuti was born. After pushing for an hour, (and him not wanting to come into the world that way!) a C-section was performed and at 11:45 AM my handsome boy, weighing 8 pds even and 20.5 inches long, was born. He has given us nothing but joy and pride since then. We cant imagine life without him. Happy Birthday, Jack Maxwell.

Samuel HAD to get in the picture, you know! :)

Fire at the Limuti house!

Well, there was a fire at our house last night. The boys and I were just sitting there hanging out downstairs when all of a sudden, there was a smell in the air. Figured out it was coming from the wash room, and I was met with the sight of flames leaping through the air. Got the boys out, called 911 and there was quite a production. Thankfully, there is no fire damage, but the house is infested with smoke damage. So, we are living in a hotel for the meantime. Will know more after meeting with the insurance guys, but thankfully we are all ok! Here are pictures of the machine that did us in!

Update on Jack Jack

This is what Jack Jack looked like 1 week after the accident! Pictures don't do him justice, but his face was a variety of colors! He still gets stares wherever we go, but we just say he has a boo-boo! Then we get lots of stories from other people about their kids and the accidents they had. This one will definitely go in the baby book!

Thanksgiving

So, we went home to Iowa for Thanksgiving and had a nice meal and some time with the family. Here are a few pictures. Here are all 3 kids. Do they look alike??
Isn't she beautiful?? She is so strong and happy!

Aunt Raena.

Best friends Aunt Rhyan and Aunt Teresa.
Uncle Hoppe!

I didn't get a good picture of nana! They were all blurry. We will get her at Christmas! :0)

Santa?

*This is copied from the Enke blog* Cami wrote it well, so why write it again?? I did get the picture in here, but you might have to squint, but we got it!

Regan and I took the boys to Dynasty Buffet (THE best Chinese restaurant in the upper Midwest) and the boys were acting particularly squirrely after eating their main dishes. I gave a stern look to my Hayden and said "you better watch out.. Christmas is coming and Santa might be watching" So, just as I say that, and I see the fear of God in Sam & Hayden - I look up to see a man standing at the buffet stand, dishing up some lo mein and cream cheese won tons - when I notice not only his impeccable taste in food, but his red shirt, large jolly belly and a long white beard. NO LIE!! I burst out laughing and took the opportunity to tell the boys... "hey! for all you know, Santa is HERE RIGHT NOW!!!!!" I looked over Regan's shoulder and motioned her to look, to which she also gasped at such a sight. We became believers in our own threat. I did manage to take a picture (OF COURSE I DID!!!!) but I was being all sneaky and trying to pretend to take Hayden's picture as "Santa" sat down to eat. The picture didn't turn out very well and it's on Regan's camera - so it won't be on the blog yet. But it's there and so was HE!!! :)

You should have seen the look on their faces! Oh, it was priceless! They kept looking at me and Cami like, "Did you really ask Santa to come here??" We laughed forever!

Poor Jack Jack!

Oof! What a day. Jack did not have a good day yesterday! He tripped and fell going down the stairs, and hit his head HARD! As you can see in the picture, it looks really bad, but the good news is that the Dr. said that he is perfectly fine, and he was his usual smiley self two minutes after it happened. You say to him "Jack, do you have a boo-boo?" and he immediately points to it. He is fine, we just feel so BAD! Poor kid!

Limuti family

Here is a recent family picture! Isn't it great? Cami and her family had the best birthday dinner anyone could ask for last night for me, and she took this picture. It isn't the best, but it will do. Things are going ok here at the Limuti house, we just had a fab time with my aunt and uncle, along with my grandma. We had a nice time.

The boys are doing great, Sam is loving school and all is right. Jack is definitely trying to talk more than ever and its really funny hearing him try to say all the neat words. Everyone seems to have the sniffles, but nothing serious.

Hope everyone is good. Leave some comments if you want!
