Will It Ever Slow Down?

Monday - This week was extremely busy. Dr. Williams was out of town so I worked a little more and then we're trying to get everything ready for Canada!

Luckily, my mother in law who watches the kids normally while I'm at work was able to watch them the extra times I worked as well. We're blessed to have her watching our kids!

It has been ridiculously hot here. We went outside to play at 8:00 at night and were still sweating!
Tuesday - I'm blessed to be able to work part time and get to spend some time with my kids during the week.
I love them both so much!

Britton has been boycotting naps so we decided to go for a walk. I didn't realize how hot it was though!
So I've decided that some things just come naturally. I noticed that whenever Britton goes down a hill, he throws his legs up on the bike and just cruises or sticks them straight out! No one has taught him that and I don't think he's seen anyone do it! I'm thinking he is going to be a little daredevil!
We headed out to Chick Fil A with Mo again and also Aunt Courtney joined us!
Wednesday - This is the boo boo that he got when we went biking on Tuesday. It's pretty bad! He also had a nice one on his leg. Since he hadn't had a nap, he cried for quite awhile. He actually cried for his daddy! They've gotten closer since I had Paityn but I've never heard him cry for him! I know it made Brandon feel good. And yes, he still has his Toy Story shirt on, I think he wore it three days this week! I finally had to hide it!
Thursday - I was supposed to go out for dinner with Robert to a dinner meeting but decided to stay home since I had been gone so much!
That was a mistake! Britton was in rare form from no nap and Paityn's belly was upset! I'll be reminded of that night next time I question going out!
Friday - We had a nice relaxing day at home. The kids enjoyed a little Toy Story!
Saturday - We crashed!
Paityn slept on me for quite awhile and I relaxed, it was wonderful!
After dinner, Britton, Paityn and I headed out for a walk. Paityn holds her hands like Britton did when he would suck his fingers!

Busy Busy

Saturday - We had an extremely busy weekend. Britton went to McDonalds with Papa for breakfast while Paityn and I hung out.
I'm trying to move mama!
After breakfast, we headed to Cooper's birthday party, haircuts, nap and the PF Changs!
Sunday - I love Paityn's bows!

We celebrated Courtney's birthday for lunch and then headed home for naps!

Four Months Old

Monday - I had the day off work so we headed over to my parents for swimming! After swimming and a nap, Brandon and I took Britton to the park. He had a great time!
Tuesday - Paityn has really discovered her hands and loves playing with them!
Wednesday - I know I say it all the time but Britton adores his sister.
He is so good to her!
This is how she falls asleep normally, she covers up her eyes!
Thursday - She is really starting to try to move around! I'm enjoying the immobile stage way too much!
Friday - My baby is four months old today! Where has the time gone? She loves lifting her skirts,
chewing on her hands,
and grinning ear to ear!
The best sound in the world is hearing her laugh.
Britton can really get her going!
She is just growing up way too fast.
Britton has really been helping with the dogs recently. He loves to give them ice and food.
She weighs 14lbs and is 23 1/2 inches long. She is actually a little smaller than Britton was!

Fourth of July

Paityn is constantly chewing/sucking on her knuckle, my fingers, her clothes or a toy! I'm afraid she's teething already!

Britton was so excited that they matched today!


We had a nice relaxing day. Church, lunch with my parents, home for naps and cleaning, groceries and then some fireworks.

We met up with Cooper, Drew and Erin to watch the Springfield fireworks.
Britton said Cooper is my buddy! We had a great time with family and friends today!

Days Outside

Tuesday - The weather has been beautiful!
We spent a lot of time outside.

Britton had a great day at school and played tons!
Wednesday - Britton had his last swimming lessons today and he did not want to put his face in the water. He did well otherwise but did not want to do this today.
Thursday - I ordered Paityn some bows and they came in today! She looks adorable in them so we modeled for daddy.
Unfortunately, her hair has started to fall out :(
Friday - She is beautiful!
We went swimming this morning at my parents house and had a great time.
Bre and Mo joined us as well!
Saturday - We went swimming again this morning and had a great time.
Brandon did a flip,
and Britton jumped off the diving board quite a few times!
Paityn swam for awhile but then got tired and took a nap with Papa!
