11 months

Grayson,
11 months bubbie!!!! You know when to smile. And you do it oh so well.
This month was a month of changes. You started a new daycare and have just really done so so good since being there. You got your two top teeth (FINALLY). You went a whole month without sickness!!! Yahoooooooo! We have not had to make another doctors visit, and my wallet thanks you.

You are so into books and cords. We play a nightly game of keep G away from the DVR and ALL the cords in the house. You're curious that's for sure. I left you alone in the living room so that I could throw out your diaper and all of the sudden I heard a weird noise,you my dear boy had grabbed my full cup of water and spilled it on you and the floor. I just started laughing because you were so proud.

You laugh when we tell you no and I'm sure that's a preview of your teenage years. But you still stop doing whatever you were doing and listen so it makes my heart happy. Speaking of happy. You are full of smiles all the time. I love that when you look at me or dada you smile instantly. Your heart, it is good baby boy.

Sleeping was going great then we had about a week of up all night bullshit but momma and you worked through it and now you are back on track although 5:30 is now your wake up time. It's ok though as long as we get solid sleep I can work with 5:30. You officially out grew 9 month clothes so I had to pack them all away. I may have shed a tear or two thinking back to the time you wore certain outfits and how your getting so big!


No walking yet but we have had some free standing moments and then you realize whats going on and you plop your booty back on the ground. Bath time still rules. You love it so much. Your very smart my sweet boy. You know that the balls go in the cup and you do it every time you see them together. You also say ball but it is touch and go. The "where's Grayson" game is big with you right now. I cover your face with a shirt and you pull it on and put it back on a million times, all while I scream "where's Grayson?, There he is!" I annoy myself but you laugh every time so I will do it until I lose my voice.  You and I have been working on giving kisses. You do it for momma and it's always a mouth wide open slobbery kiss but I love everyone you give me. You already know how to share. You share Cheerios with anyone who asks for one. Your becoming a little more bold when older kids are around. You used to just sit and stare but now you crawl over and start playing with them.

Grayson, we love you so much. I can't wait to celebrate your birthday next month. So many people love you baby boy. I'm proud to be your momma. You steal my heart a little more everyday.

Love always,
Your Momma

Friday Favorites

Love that it's Friday Love that its Friday and we have a beautiful weekend ahead of us! Linking up with Andrea today! One These PJ's. When we first got married (and even before I was married really) I used to wear cute PJ's to bed and then I started to wear not so cute PJ's to bed so I ordered some new ones and OMG girls get these now. So so soft so so comfy and under $20.00! Plus they have pockets!   Two While your shopping at Kohls throw some of these picture frames in your cart! Just for fun! I love that they are easy to change out and have a distressed look! Plus they can sit on a shelf or be hung on the wall. Love! Three We have been swimming like crazy and that equals all the things that go with swimming like a million towels and swim suits. My bathroom was a mess. I usually never wash my swim suits I just rinse them out and hang dry they last a lot longer doing it that way and so I had things hanging every where! So I ord

A nice little sweet spot

The sweet spot…. We seem to have hit one. I feel like we have not been in a sweet spot since the twins were about 6 months old. You know before they were mobile and can get into a ton of mischief. When kids are 0-6 months they still like to be held they eat mostly bottles and they mostly just stay in one spot. No issues, you can go places and even though you have to pack up your whole house to be prepared you can relax. And if you are in my family someone is always willing to hold or feed or change a baby. 7-months to 2.5 years old is what I refer to as the lost years. You have so many things you have to do for them they are not potty trained and they are mobile and get into EVERYTHING. Going outside is more work than its worth and with twins they scatter in opposite directions. Three on one is so hard handle in big open spaces. I would often find myself skipping outside time because the work was just too much for me. When the twins turned 3 and Grayson was 6 it felt like we had a

Home Schooling

Ah home schooling something that all of the country was thrown into. March 13 th was the last day that Grayson went to school and Charlotte and Marshalls last day was March 12 th . We got the call on March 15 th that school was closed for 2 weeks and that a pick up for at home materials would be on Tuesday. It was not required just suggested and so we loosely did school work. A worksheet here, spelling words here, some math problems ya know simple things. We truly believed that 2 weeks and they would be back in the classroom that is what the district presented as happening and so the distance learning was just to occupy time not to really learn anything new. Everything we were given was review.  Then we got the notification March 30 th we were closed again for another 2 weeks. Again, we were being loose with the learning because I was now working from home all but one day a week and had all three kids home and lets be honest it was a lot. Michael was still working 4-5 days a wee
