Amy Morgan

So Amy Morgan Wertz was born at 2:41 pm on Thursday October 18th.  I was scheduled to be induced and to go in at 5am unfortunately they had 8 walk ins the night before I was supposed to go in so I was got pushed back.  I was so afraid they weren't going to let me come in at all which was really bad because we had places for all of our kids to go already.  So they let me come in at 8:30 luckily they got me all hooked up to the Pitocin but my Dr usually comes into break my water at 8am and since I didn't get there until 8:30 he couldn't come in until noon.  So they finally broke my water at 12:30 and I was at a 4 and got to a 10 by 2:30.  They got my Dr there and Christopher got suited up because he was going to deliver.  Two contractions later Amy was here.  It was again an amazing experience Chris did amazing and it was so cool that he was able to deliver her.  We decided to name her Amy after Christopher's Aunt Amy who we just love and will be such a good role model for our little girl,  and Morgan after Christopher's little brother who passed away while Christopher was on his mission.  She is so pretty she has dark hair and what I think will be blue eyes.  She is a lot paler than Emily was and her eyebrows are really light so I think she might end of with light hair eventually like Ryan.  She was 8 lbs 14 oz and 20 1/2 inches long.   Anyway she has been very healthy and is such a good baby!!!

Christopher's 30th

So Christopher turned 30 last month but it was just a week and a half before the baby was born so I never got around to posting anything.  I also didn't do a big party or anything for him since I was incredibly sore and exhausted.   So we had a few people over for cake and ice cream and called it good!

Chris's cake!  And my huge tummy!

We ended up unexpectedly going out of town the weekend of Chris's birthday and came home on his birthday which was a Sunday.  I thought I had a 3 candle but I didn't so he got a 29 candle plus 1!

Olivia's Birthday!

Yes I know that I am over a month late but I had to post pictures of my cute girl from her 6th birthday!

Cute Livvy with her cake!

I love that my kiddos tend not to request anything hard for cakes!

Opening presents,  she has been loving this microphone!

Dress up clothes

can't get better than pink and fluffy unless maybe you add sparkles!

my cute diva!  you can see her awesome gloves she got too!

Love my sweet girl she is getting so big on me!  She is such a good helper and loves to help my with Emily and I am sure she soon will with her new sister too!  She loves school and singing,  she is excellent at math and is learning how to read!  She also loves to be outside and spends most of her days there with friends or by her self playing with imaginary friends!

First Day of School

We kind of had 2 first days of school this year.  On the actual first day of school Olivia just had to go for a little bit to drop of supplies.  Then she came home.  So the first day Ryan went and then we took Olivia a little later,  Olivia's first full day was the next day!

Ryan all ready for school on the first day just curled up in a blanket reading waiting for time to actually leave!

Picking up Olivia from school.  She is super awesome and we only picked her up the first day, every since then she has walked home by herself!

Independence Day!

SO I had a lot of Independence Day pics so I figured I could do a post just for them.  We went down to Dayton,  and went to a show that my Mom was in charge of and then went to the parade with Daniel and Jennifer.  We also went to the park where they had all sorts of fun stuff set up for the kids.  After the park we had enough time to drive back home and watch the fireworks from there!

at the parade waiting for the flag to go by  I love small town parades they are just long enough!

Olivia waiting to get sling shotted down the water slide!

Summer

So I didn't blog all summer, mostly cause I never get on the computer that has the pictures so this is going to be mostly a picture post to get all caught up!  Ready set go! (oh and the pics downloaded in reverse order so this is all from the end of summer forward.)

Ryan also lost his 2 front teeth also giving him an awesome lisp we have had lots of fun kindly making fun of him!

Olivia lost her first tooth very closely followed by her 2nd (which gave her an awesome lisp)

Showing where the tooth fairy kissed her!

We went camping to our favorite camping spot.  We only got out once this year because camping while pregnant with a 1 year old was a little bit much!

Ryan learning how to whittle with his new pocket knife that he won!  

Olivia playing on the rocks by the playground  (one of the reasons it is our favorite place to camp)

Emily loving the whole thing even though she was a little sick!  She walked around like she owned the place!

Our awesome new tent!  This should fit our whole family nicely !

Both the older kiddos played baseball this year they were on different team but had the same color shirts and also the same team name!  Ryan did coach pitch and Olivia did T-ball

Ryan up to bat

Olivia on base!  She never trusted her helmet  to stay on!

Emily chilling with mom at the game!

Olivia at bat,  she hit that ball like it did something wrong!

Chris got a water gun for father's day and we all had a little bit of fun with them,  we got the kids some too so they could defend themselves but we gave Chris the biggest one!

Emily even got in on the action she loved getting sprayed!
