Ticker

Kind of sad.

I just said bye to the kids. They are spending the night with my grandparents. This is the first time Addie has ever stayed anywhere over night. In fact-I've never been away from her for more than 6 hours. I already miss her. I am sort of looking forward to tonight though.

DH & I are going to a movie and then hanging out at home. We had been invited to a few church parties but this is our first night alone with no kids. I kind of just want it to be us, spending some quality time together. Not to mention I will have to pump every 2-3 hours and I can't do that if I'm not at home...well, I probably could but just don't want to. Too much of a hassle.

What am I looking forward to the most?

----Having room on the bed! We co-sleep, and while I LOVE it...I miss having my space. There are four of us sleeping on a Queen size bed. Ack! But tonight...I can sleep however I want. I won't have an infant cradled in my arm, I wont be stuck sleeping on my right side all.night.long...waking up to an extremely sore body from being so still...

Whoo!

Dear Addie,

Today you are 3.5 months old. You can smile, laugh, roll over and hold a conversation in your own little baby babble. You are growing so fast and every day you learn/discover something new. I miss my tiny newborn. Please stay little forever. XOXO, Mommy♥:)

Twilight Baby!




My newest addiction (diaperswappers.com) has led me to these. A Twilight diaper and Twilight legwarmers!!! These are probably the cutest things I have EVER SEEN! I got both for just $23!
Now we just need to find a shirt to match it. I like some of the baby Twilight shirts from www.cafepress.com but I just can't decide on one!
Now if only I could find some Twilight softshoes!

Lovey.


I'm kind of shocked. I have always heard about babies having a lovey and tried to get Braxton to have one, but it failed. So I didn't really think it happened. Buuuut, I think Addie has one! The bear/blanket in the photo was a gift from some ladies who were speaking at our church back when I was just a week or two away from my csection date. (So thoughtful.)
:)
Anyways, now that Addie has started showing an interest in toys I got all of her toys out. (She has ALOT now after being SPOILED at Christmas!) ;) hehe Well, she seems to have grown attatched to this one. I think she likes being able to actually grab it and hold on to it. She loves grabbing it and pulling the bear up to her face so she can look at it (or chew on it.) When she is grumpy I lay the blanket on her tummy or shake it in front of her face and she is instantly calmed and most of the time falls asleep. It's soooo cute! :)
P.S. I'm working on getting Christmas pics up...I have sooo many to sort through though!


Braxton is on the very left in the blue outfit. He was a wiseman. :)

The only pic I got of him in his suit. :(

My grandma holding Addie. LOVE her dress. :)
The photos are AWFUL quality...the lighting in the church is really bad, half the lights were dimmed, I didn't want to use flash so they're pretty grainy and low quality.
Braxton did really well during the play. When it was almost over he started crying (no idea why) and came running to sit with me. But seeing as it lasted over an hour I would say he did very good to stay up there that long. :)
I can't wait until he's old enough to have lines.

Snowed in!










We are officially snowed in! It went from a little snow & ice to HUGE snowflakes the size of golfballs! No joke, these are the largest snowflakes I've ever seen! The winds are just awful too! It's practically a blizzard! They are saying we're in for about 2 feet of snow! Wow!
I tried to get pics of the snowflakes but it was hard, the winds were blowing them by sooo fast! The pics I did get don't even really show how BIG the flakes are. Braxton's pretty excited about the snow though. It's waaaay too bad out to go play in it though. Hopefully things will settle down by tomorrow.
