Journaling Blog

A few years ago my mom gave me a journal jar and I haven't done a thing with it. I've decided I'm now going to start recording answers using a blog. So I've started a separate blog to do this. It's private so if you would like to read about my fabulous life then send me your email addy and I'll send you an invite. Also let me know if you want to be notified when I update my blog. :)

Preschool Day Questions

A little video of Holden talking about his first day at preschool.

Preschool!

Holden had his first day of preschool today. He did so well! He ran right in and started playing and didn't care at all when I left. He just said "Bye Mom!" No tears from either of us. (I was expecting tears from me.) He told me they learned the color red and the letter A today. He already knows his colors, but I'm sure it's a good refresher for him. He's growing up way too fast!!

I think he was sick of me taking pictures. After the ones at home I only got the mean face.

Playing in the mud

We created a mud puddle in the backyard so we can try to grow some grass. So of course Holden had to play in it. He had lots of fun. Here are a few pics showing just how much fun he had.

And rinsing himself off. Because Heaven forbid he stay dirty. He really doesn't like to be dirty.

"Date Night"

Holden and I went on a date night last night. It was so much fun!! I'm so glad we were able to spend some time together without having to worry about anyone else. We went to the Aquarium and then went for ice cream after. I couldn't have asked for a better night. We will definitely be planning more date nights soon. Here are a few pics from our night out.

Driving the boat. Don't you love his face?

Looking at the jelly fish.

Taking funny pictures in the booth. Holden really wanted to take more. He kept getting back inside the booth and saying "Come on, Mom!"

Sleeping Beauties

Okay so maybe they aren't beauties, but they are super handsome! It is a rare occasion at our house for both boys to be sleeping at the same time so when it happened the other day I had to document it. It didn't last long at all (maybe half an hour), but it was wonderful while it did.

Chunky Monkey

Beckett is growing like a weed! He had his 4 month well child check last week and he is doing great! He is now 16 pounds 13 ounces and 25 1/2 inches long. Both put him in the 75th percentile. He did okay with shots also. My doctor's MA was teasing me that I'm producing buttermilk and that is why Beckett is so big! He is quickly outgrowing his 3-6 month clothes so I'm sure we'll have to go shopping again soon. It's so fun to watch him grow and learn!
