our 5 month old Cutie, Pictures, and news

 This  little Biscuit is 5 months!  We can  not believe it!  Its awful, and even sadder considering he seams about 10 months.  He is so mature.  He is mobile, and is almost crawling on all fours.  He can scoot and head crawl around.  He is so good with his hands and can get his binky in his mouth in the first try.  He eats solids, and loves the weirdest ones! I thought he would like apples and bananas, but he loves the carrots and beans .  He only likes food if its thickened up with rice cereal, haha! which explains why he is a giant baby.  He wears 9-12 month old clothes. He is so fun for all of us!  Rye and I worship him and so do his brothers.  He really is so cute.  He is so flirty and friendly.  We named him after my grandpa Rohde, and it is so crazy because he reminds me so much of him!  just this big friendly fun guy.  But out of all my kids he is the meanest, its super rare! but this kid gets mad!  He swings that big ol' melon to kill! It is really funny.  He is really tough to, and gets man handled by his brothers, but hardly ever gets mad.  We love him, and feel so lucky to have him.

 His eyes are the most beautiful blue!!!  All my boys have them, but his stand out so much because of how dark he is.

 

 Other news

 This little boy turned 4!! I cant believe it!  He is such a stinker and sweetheart all at once, but we wouldn't trade him for anyone! My favorite thing he says currently, and he says it when anyone gets hurt "when you get hurt...you get muscles!"

 Brothers who really do love each other, sometimes to much!

 When I think about it....probably my favorite thing about my kids is how excited they get for each other.  It makes me so unbelievably happy.  RACE is eating nanas!!! or Knox rode my bike!!! Holden does anything and knox thinks its amazing! ....probably the best part of being their parents.

 Rye graduated the electrical program at GBC.  He did so good and worked so hard.  This program is tough! They say even harder then their nursing program.  But he did it in a year and on top of that got his associates!  That is 79 credits.  He is still interning this summer and taking more classes.  Turns out he's not all that far from his bachelors.  So we will see.  We were so proud of him!  We were all able to go watch him walk.  Thanks to Holdens kindergarten teacher and her son ( he also graduated) they gave us another ticket, your only allowed 2.  Wish I could say this has been an easy year...So hard!! But hopefully it will pay off.

 Holden had a mining week at school, and Rye brought him home stuff to wear.  including Ryes own hard hat! I thought it was so sweet.  He even ripped off his own name tag off his shirt.  Holden LOVED it and thought he was the coolest kid ever! 

This is the only way he sits in his bouncy! it is so cute.  He can get out of it, but he prefers to climb up and sit like this and people watch.  He gets bouncing so high though, it scares me!....Yes, I let him.  When you have 3 boys you will understand =)
