~ My Big Girl~


Kaylee is getting so big! It seems I am getting her a new contraption every couple of weeks to help keep her entertained. This is the newest of the bunch the bumbo chair. She loves it! Next week is her 4 month check up I am so curious to see how much she has grown since her last visit.

~Congrats Brian & Shelly~

Our adorable little flower girl
We had yet another eventful weekend... we had a night away from Kaylee while we attended Brian & Shelly's wedding. It was a beautiful day and very fun! Hailee was a flower girl, Josh the best man and Megan the matron of honor. Congrats Brian & Shelly!!!!Kaylee did great for my parents. She even slept through the night. I am so thankful that I have family close enough to enjoy her as much as I do. My mom did not want to give her bad....

Oh No...


I have been in denial.... but I think it has definitely happened. She is officially a thumb sucker!! The reason I did not want this is because you can throw away the paci but you can't the thumb. She is just like her mommy and uncles we all sucked our thumbs.

What a difference a year make...

Yesterday one of my girlfriends came by to meet Kaylee that I have not seen for almost an entire year. Well after her visit I started thinking about how much my life has changed since I last saw her... I am sure many of you moms will get a kick out of this post.

1. A long hot shower is a luxury
2. Going away for a weekend or even a couple of hours takes A LOT more planning
3. Our usually river trips will NEVER be the same
4. I can survive just fine on no sleep
5. Shopping at the mall with a girlfriend all day is much more exciting (with 2 babies)... if you want to call it that.
6. Nursing where ever and when ever is not impossible with the assistance of the "hooter hider"
7. I now laugh out loud while reading "Parenting" magazine
8. Calling in sick is not an option
9. A laugh, smile, or new milestone makes my day
10. My new best friend can't even talk yet
11. Alone time with my hubby is now planned and something I really look forward too

As I look at this list I would not change anything about my life as it is today. Although it does make me laugh. I am so thankful I get to stay home with Kaylee and enjoy watching her grow and change daily.

Kaylee's 1st River Trip



We did a fast little turn around trip to the river this weekend. We left Friday when Jeremy got home from work and came home today. Kaylee LOVED the boat and slept the entire time we were driving but while on the beach she wanted to be held the entire time. She would fall asleep and I would put her in her little tent and then with in 10 minutes she would cry again. Next river trip she will be staying with Grammy. But it was nice to get out and enjoy the warm weather.

3 Months Old



Our little munchkin is getting SO big SO fast. I cannot believe that it has already been 3 months. She really is the best thing that has ever happened to us. She brings me so much joy. Kaylee is now smiling ALL the time and laughing. It is the cutest thing. Jeremy and I could be entertained by her for hours. She has also started to grab her toys that I hung on her car seat and is getting stronger by the day. I have to say last night was the BEST milestone for me... she slept from 8:30pm to 7:30am. I feel like a new woman although I did wake up and check on her twice. Lets hope this trend continues!!!

Eventful Week

Lori and her twin Julie

It has been a very eventful week for us... These pictures are all of the rehearsal dinner for Matt and Lori's wedding. Jeremy and I are both in the wedding. I am getting really excited for tomorrow I think it will be a very FUN wedding. So many of our friends will be there. The girls surprised me and got me a cake and everyone sang happy birthday. I got a little emotional... I guess I just did not expect it. Also may have to do with my hormones still being all wacky. Regardless it was so sweet!!!

The Big 29



~Our little family~
My birthday was yesterday but we celebrated it on Tuesday night because we had a rehearsal dinner last night for our friends wedding (Matt and Lori) which is this Saturday. It was great to spend an evening with some of my family and close girl friends for yummy dinner. I cannot believe that this is the last year of my 20's...
