5 Months

Again time stop going so fast......


Dear Grayson,

Baby boy I think I love you more everyday. You have the best smile and laugh!! You are laughing up a storm. You and I get into laughing fits together that leave me in tears. I love how you are our little shadow. You go everywhere with us. You are 5 months old but wearing 9 month clothing. You have the chunkiest thighs and arm rolls for days but those cheeks are what really melt my heart.

We had a couple doctors visits this month and have gotten your acid reflux under control. Fingers crossed you grow out of it. You started veggies this month and while you shudder at the first few bites you always open your mouth for more. You get cereal twice a day and 6 ounces 4 times a day with veggies and fruit( just started yesterday) around dinner time. You sleep on your tummy now and we have started sleep training. Your doing pretty good but are still up for an hour anywhere between 10 and 12. We are working through it. It's ok we get it your stubborn, but you come by that honestly.

You love to snuggle and Daddy and I never object. You tell the best stories and will talk forever. You recently started chewing at random times and we just think it's the cutest thing. You roll over all the time and chew on your feet. Sitting up and crawling are on the horizon and to be honest we can't wait. Your little personality forms more everyday and you are just a happy fun baby. Your smile melts my heart. You and Daddy still do everything together and you smile from ear to ear when he walks in the door. You hold his hand when he feeds you your bottle. You are loved baby boy, and you have the most amazing family who can't get enough of you. You went camping for the first time this month and you did great.

I'm so proud and happy to be your momma. I can't wait to see the little person you become.

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
