One Month Old

Crazy how time flys by. I can't believe our little girl is already a month old. She is now 10lbs 12 oz- there's no denying that she eats well! Nights are still a struggle, at least for me it is. The last few nights she has been getting up every 2-3 hrs, which makes for a very long night... its a good thing she sleeps good thru the day so I can take a nap with Austin. She hasn't peeled at all like most newborns do, she has an outie for a belly button-which I think is way cute- she has baby acne really bad, has some very expressive faces, and she knows how to fill her diaper. Can you please explain to me how such a cute little girl can have such an explosion that poo goes up her back to the base of her neck! I mean she doesn't even use her diaper- just up and out it goes, every morning, no matter if she is laying down or on her belly! So for now I don't try and understand it... I just anticipate the poo mess!

Paislee's first day at church

I love feet pictures

"I'm done taking pictures mom, please just feed me!" Isn't her outfit cute!

Austin eating Yogurt! He's a big boy and insisted that he do it all him self! The end result.. a yogurt mustach.

His latest thing.... sitting in anything, no matter how tight a squeeze it is.

NEVER A DULL MOMENT WITH LITTLE BOYS

First nice day with warm weather...48 degrees! Austin loves being outside, so I bundled him up and while Paislee was asleep we went out for a while. Austin on the four wheeler, helping Dallas with chores.

Since the snow is melting, our driveway is full of puddles and mud.

Water + mud = very wet and dirty boys! So it was off to the tubby after running through the puddles that were up to his ankles. He went inside screaming because he wasn't ready to go in. It didn't matter that he was freezing, soaking and covered in mud!

After a long day, no nap and energy spent out side... he slept through dinner! We all hear the stories of kids falling asleep while eating their dinner, and I couldn't wait till that precious moment happened to one of my kids. Then it did. One moment he was wide awake showing no sign of stopping, then I turn around to heat something up in the microwave. By the time I turned around he was out cold. He stayed asleep for about 20 minutes before he kind of woke up asking for a bottle! Dallas and I were laughing so hard.

This tub usually has all his toys in it. Lately, he dumps it out , pulls it closer to the couch, crawls in and watches tv with us.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY AVEN

HaPpY BiRtHdAy AvIe GiRl brian and carly's little girl, my niece, is one years old today. Crazy how time flys bye.

How our days go....

Mom gets me all dressed and cute...

Then this thing they call my brother has to come and help feed me...

But at least he gives me kisses in between whacks!

Then mom thinks Austin needs a head band... Dad wasn't too excited, good thing mom got a picture first...

Waiting for dinner dad and Austin share some grapes...

Austin helps mom make peanut butter cookies for dessert.


Then the big wind down before bed... get all the extra energy out. Dallas and Austin love to wrestle, so almost every night the two of them duke it out for about an hour. Mainly it is Austin climbing all over Dallas ... We have been watching alot of bull riding lately, so Austin thinks Dallas is a bull. It is so funny so watch Austin climb on Dallas and then try to ride him like a bull, hand up all! Its amazing how observant kids are... at any age.
