Aidan Wins an Award

My nephew Aidan won a school award and was presented it during the weekly assembly. His class also gave a presentation. Me, Addison and Jayson were there to show our support!





Lunch With Bryson

We had lunch with Bryson recently. Jayson likes to take his own lunch in his Cars lunchbox. This was Addison's lunch debut!



A Morning With Carson

Recently Bryson had a school party which I could not attend. So I helped Jamie out and watched her son so she could go. (Her daughter is in Bryson's class.)

The boys played a little Mario Kart Wii but soon lost interest and wanted to go outside. They had a blast taking turns driving the Gator!

Before school...

Poor Jayson gets the shaft when it comes to getting ready in the mornings... I usually just give myself enough time to get Bryson ready, feed the kids, and throw on some clothes myself...Jayson is doing good to get a jacket on. hehehe

I had to get a picture of Jayson's beloved Racoon. He goes nowhere without it and his blanket!




Just messing around...





Bumbo - gotta love it!

Whoever invented the Bumbo seat is brilliant! I love it. Addison is only 3 months old but can actually sit upright in it. It is so nice.




Ballerina

Every little girl needs a tutu!


Jay's Birthday Pictures

Happy Birthday Daddy!

On Feb. 10th we celebrated Jay's birthday. Went to a local mexican restaurant with friends and family. It was kind-of a surprise but Brett spilled the beans. (Yes Brett, I know. You owe me big time!) ;) Had a good time. Even got to see Jay in a sombrero. !Ay, caramba!

**Pictures to come soon...

3 Months Old!

Can't believe Addison is already 3 months old. Where does the time go? She is such a sweet baby. She mainly cries when she is tired. She's very talkative now and starting to make the first sounds (ba and ma). She is starting to see things too and reaching out and trying to grab stuff. She likes to sit upright and has very good control of her head/neck. Still not sleeping through the night, or what I would consider the entire night. But, on a good night, she can sleep a 7 hour stretch and get up only once. (Let me just say LAST night was NOT one of those nights...) She loves to look at her brothers - they keep her very entertained!



I don't have children, I have monkeys!

Bryson and Jayson have found a tree for climbing. Poor tree! What is surprising is not only how high they get but that Jayson is attempting it as well. Needless to say, Mommy was scared!

Sporting a new do...

I went with something totally different - BANGS! I've not had bangs since middle school. I am almost 32 years old so that tells you how long it has been.

I thought I would be all worried but I wasn't at all. I was ready for a change. Still getting used to it and have to figure out how to fix it but I do like it.

Now if I can just lose the rest of my pregnancy weight (40 lbs)...

And 9 years later...

...here we are!



Jay and I celebrated our 9th anniversary on Jan. 15th. We went to Miller's Grocery in Christiana. It was a neat little dive with excellent food and live bluegrass entertainment. Such a neat place. Here is their website.

Addison's 2 Month Checkup

Hard to believe Sister has already had her 2 month checkup. It went well. She got 5 shots and screamed bloody murder during but was fine once we got to the car. She slept the rest of the day - getting shots is hard work! Doctor said she was growing well.

She was 11 lbs 12 oz (75%) and 23 3/4 inches (90%).

Just to compare Bryson was 14 lbs 8 oz (97%) and 24 1/2 inches (95%). Jayson was 13 lbs 11 oz (90%) and 25 inches (97).

So by girls standards she is big but compared to the boys she is teeny! lol
