The Christensens

I think I've officially ran out of memory/ storage for this Blogger account.

So I've created a new blog associated with a new email address and account.

You can find my new blog Fairies and Football here.

 I just love my sweet Avery Joy. 

She's such a kind and loving big sister 

and I couldn't be more proud of how she's welcomed Eli into our family.

I decided to snap a few pictures of Avery tonight just because.

Here's a few of my favorites...

 Here's a few pictures for the members of Sean's family that read my blog.

Tonight we went to Sean's cousin Taylor's Open House and Family Dinner.

It was fun to get together with some of the extended family.

Aunt Liz did a fantastic job decorating with the fall theme, my pictures don't do it justice...

I quickly wanted to get some pictures with Taylor and Alisa so 

Sean, Megan and Michelle made their way into the front of the line and into some pictures...

Lexi wanted me to take a picture of the bride for her.

And here's one of Sean's cousin Tyler with little Eli.

Today Eli met my grandpa, Calvin Eli, who he is named after...

And here's Eli with Bertha (my step-grandma).

And then here's 4 generations of the Briggs family...

And all my kids with their great grandparents and grandma.

It was so fun to get together and catch up and see how our family has grown.

On Thursday Eli had his 2 week check-up.
His pediatrician was thrilled with his growth!
She told me that the goal at their 2 week check up was just to regain their birth weight.

Here is Eli's stats:

22 inches (95%) and 9 lbs 15 oz (87%)

(He probably would have been 10 lbs even if he had pooped right before he got weighed.)

Sean and I are excited to have a big boy. 

I've always wanted a chubby baby and now I think I'll finally have one!

 I don't feel like writing much so instead here's a bunch of pictures.

Firs the girls carving their pumpkins with Sean...

 The girls wouldn't touch the insides of the pumpkins again. What wimps!

My attempt to get cute pictures of the girls outside...

And here's Avery and Eli cuddling while Lexi was at preschool.

These two are so cute together. I hope they become best buds.

And here's some pictures from Halloween night.

I decided to tease Lexi's hair for fun.

She thought it was funny.

This girl was so excited to go trick-or-treating.

And here's Eli squeezed into his newborn sized costume...

And here's Eli waving hello to his grandparents.

Sean took the girls trick-or-treating with their cousins and uncle Justin.

They had a blast and got a ton of candy.
