A Couple Randoms

A couple weeks ago my friend Heather got married. It was such a wonderful day and I am so happy for both her and Mark. They deserve all the best and know that they will have such a blessed marriage. Some of the kids were able to attend the wedding which was super special to all of them. So here is a picture of Parker, Lily and Ava ready to dance the night away. I don't know if "dance" is the right word for Parker, the boys was literally out of control and loving every second of it.






Now that I have a girl in the house, I have to get used to all the bows and headbands. However I have found that they are sooooo stinkin expensive. I have also found that they just don't match perfectly. So what do you do when you cant find the right bow??? You make your own. My sister-in-law Sarah and I have decided to take up a new hobby and save ourselves a lot of money. Her more than me since she has three girls that can all wear pigtails at the same time. Whew thats a lot of bows. So here is my first go around at the bow making. Much more to come but so far I LOVE it! And the best thing is she will have one for every outfit that matches perfectly rather than just wearing a simple White or Pink. I have a lot of work but the bigger the better right?

































Since I haven't posted in a while we have been through our baby turing 2 and 3 months. So here are her monthly pics. I didn't have these onesie stickers with the boys which I am bummed about because they are so helpful and perfect for the baby book. Oh well, live and learn right. Anyway, Tessa is doing wonderful. Growing like crazy. She is now down to 4 bottles a day, 3 naps a day and done with those late night feedings. A couple weeks ago she started going down around 7:30 pm and is good till 7:30 am. I keep saying that I feel like we have arrived. PRetty proud of my little girl. She is a big girl sitting at 96% for weight and 95% for height. Best time to be chunky right? Smiles and giggles all day long.

















Here is one I couldn't resist. Morning story time. These are the times that I treasure. Boys quiet and getting along. Have to admit that these are few and far between. Sometimes I think I have to have more than Three children because the amount of running, jumping, pounding and screaming that goes on in my house can not possibly be from just Two boys.

Sibling Love!

He loves his sister! This kind of thing happens more often than not. I will walk into a room to find Griffin either "playing" with Tessa or talking to her in the cutest little baby voice. This particular time he was laying under her gym pointing things out to her. Melts my heart and brings a smile to my face. Lets just hope it stays this way.

1 month

A couple weeks late, but here is our babe at one month. Had to wait for the stickers to arrive. Gotta love snail mail.

Time is flying by so fast. I can not believe that Tessa is almost 7 weeks already. She has been such a joy and all around good baby. Had a couple fussier weeks but we are back on track. I have actually had to put some clothes away already that don't fit her already. Officially in 0-3 months clothes. Her rolls are accumulating on the thighs and under the chin. I so love this stage and wish we could stay in it a little longer.
We did a little photo shoot last night with all three of them. Had a couple that turned out and thought we would share them.
