H Girl 2M

Hadley is officially 2 months old and she has had her first round of shots. Poor little girl. She screamed and screamed and cried and cried until she was bright red in the face! I had a hard time consoling her. I admit her brother took his shots much better. If she could talk it would sound have sounded something like this..."I can't believe you did that to me...how dare you!" in the most pitiful drama queen voice EVER!  Her "hurt" cry is something else! 

At her doctor's visit on 11-14 she weighed 12 pounds and 13 ounces and was 23" tall. She is doing well and growing fast. At two months Hadley is holding her head up, recognizes our voices, coo's/baby talk, smiles, raises her eyebrows, can hold an object in her hand, and sleeps 7-9 hours straight every night for her mom! Thank you H girl!  She recently starting taking a Binky or a "B" which is what we call it around here and thank GOD for that!  She is a much happier little girl. 


This was taken about 2 weeks ago and the photo last week. I haven't had a lot of time to take out the camera so my I-phone has been great!

Scotty Turns 2

Scotty turned 2 this year on 11-02-2011. According to an article that I read this is a really cool birthday because it is a palindrome date. Basically you can read it backwards, and well it's the same! While this is super cool, it in no way compares to how cool it is to have Scotty as my son. I love and adore him beyond words!

At 2 Scotty....
-Weighs about 29 pounds
-Stands at around 36 inches tall
-Mexican food and potatoes are favorite foods. He also enjoys eating where the "cow" lives AKA Chic-Fil-A. 
-Brownie the dog and softy sleep with us every night and come down every morning for milk
-Favorite saying right now is "Uh-Oh Spagehetti-O" (I hear this a lot these days....feel like he has a repeat button stuck on "ON" somewhere!)
-In love with playing outside, lawnmowers, weed eaters, blowers, Home Depot, ice cream, school, mom, dad (in no specific order) 
-Can undress down to his shirt all by himself
-Starting to use sentences like "Big truck out there." 

We go to Monkey Joe's, a local bounce house that Scotty really loves, SO we only felt it necessary to bring a little bit of Monkey Joe's with family and friends to our backyard for his 2nd birthday BASH! Lot's of family and friends came to celebrate! We had such a fun time and Scotty got some really cool gifts including a guitar, tractor, cars that have lights and make noise, books, movies, stickers, planes, clothes etc! Here are some pictures from the day.

Trick or Treat 2011

 Scotty and candy goes together like peas and carrots... However, peas and carrots won't give you a stomach ache or cause tooth decay. But who cares about that right?! It's Halloween! Scotty had a fun time getting candy just handed to him from door to door. Scotty did not disappoint with a sweet little "thank you" after each visit,  which in some cases gained him some extra pieces of candy! What a sweet little boy you are! Baba Z, Baba, and Nana also came along to watch. Scotty, you were the best Bob ever! We love you!




Bob the Builder! Yes we Can!

Happy Halloween! XOXO

Hadley's Photo Shoot

These are some of my favorite pictures from Hadley's photo shoot. She was 7 days old in these shots. I posted these on Facebook a few weeks ago, so these are for those of you who don't have Facebook. 

ENJOY!












LOVE this one




Love you H Girl

All About Fall!

Fall is finally here and with it brings us some cooler weather! Finally! We have enjoyed spending more time outside, painting pumpkins, pumpkin art, carving pumpkins, visiting the pumpkin patch, and talking ALL about "punkins" oh and "clowns" AKA Scarecrows.  Scotty is so hands-on and has enjoyed each of these activities! While Hadley is too little to enjoy all of these things, she comes with us everywhere. I know I will blink and she will be playing amongst the "punkins" too.

1 Month In

Lot's going on! Here is the quick version! 

Hadley: Won't take a Bink, dislikes formula-breast milk only for my little lady, loves to be held ALL DAY=SPOILED ROTTEN already! However, sleeping like a little princess at night makes mommy very happy! 1 MONTH OLD!

Scotty: Mr. Independent..."Scotty do it!" is his reply to EVERYTHING! Has been very sweet to his sister and slowly forgiving his mommy. I think after leaving a TURD (Yes, I repeat a TURD) under my clothes in my closet he is feeling better about things. Continues to have a ball at MDO! About to be 2 in a few weeks and acting like it! 

Mommy: Exhausted and overwhelmed! Not yet adjusted to the new craziness of 2 under the age of 2! Running daily again and LOVING every minute of it! Hitting the gym while the kiddos are asleep at night because I am dying to wear my fall clothes!!! My maternity clothes are looking pretty raunchy!  

Dad: Learning to juggle everything AIN'T easy!

Dogs: Dre' is jealous! Flip protective!

Picture Below: Should have just posted this! You get the idea! CRAZY!
