3 Weeks Already!

By
I honestly cant believe that it has been 3 full weeks! Time flies! Things have been going really well. It helps that he is a perfect baby and hardly ever cries. However when he does cry, this is how I feel:



Everyone said it would all come so naturally, and for the most part it really has. I have yet to learn to distinguish between his cries. I'm hoping this "Mother's Intuition" will kick in soon because it makes me so sad when he does cry.

As for an update, Parker is doing great! We had a follow up appointment today because at his two week check up he was still a pound under his birth weight. But today he had gained 7 oz in one week! I'm so relieved!

We haven't taken as many pictures as i'm sure the family would like, but here is Parker after a bath. I love these hooded towels, so cute!

Yay! I'm glad he's gaining weight! Now you can maybe let him sleep and not have to wake him up at night, right???

I never could tell the difference between Thad's newborn cries. There was like, bad, worse and worsest. Then again Thad cried pretty much continuously for 4 months so maybe there was no difference. Anywayyyy, my point is, you'll just learn as you get to know his schedule and his needs better why he is crying. Although sometimes it is for no reason at all. This is my advice: bounce from the knees. They can tell the difference.

I never learned to tell apart Jilly's cries. I can tell now when something is a whiney cry or a genuine upset or a hurt cry. But that's about it. And she's 2! So don't stress over that.

I love the little hoodie towels too! Kamryn's too big for hers now... sad! (I'll just have to go find bigger ones! I've seen them before!) :)

And I LOVE the little irish shirt! That is TOO cute! (I haven't been blogging much lately...sorry I'm a little behind on the comments!)

Can't believe he's already 3 weeks! That's just crazy! But he sounds like such an angel and you are doing a great job! Can't wait to see more of him! (too bad you're leaving for the summer :( we'll miss you!)

I need a haircut ASAP! This is me saying, "I'll smile if you ignore my hair." Don't get me wrong, I am really excited I have long hair, I love having long hair , but it needs a little TLC. It has been a few months since I have even got a trim and I am still re-couping from a not so good hair cut. The last few times I have really CUT my hair, not just a trim, I was not pleased with the results. Now it would probably help if I was willing to pay more than $10 for a hair cut . . . but I'm Mrs. High Pockets as my father calls me and it is really hard for me to spend money on my hair. So I need your help! What do you think I should do? Before you make any suggestions you should know: It MUST be able to go back into a ponytail!!!!!!! My hair is STICK STRAIGHT My hair will not curl to save my life (via over night curls, hot curls, even curling irons, they just don't work) I want and need something EASY! I do not like to spend time on my hair and I don...

Em's Blessing

By
Emily's Blessing day was so great! Since we were moving home so soon after she was born, we decided to just wait until we got out here to CA so our family could be there for it. It was pretty low key compared to P's (and by that I mean less family there) but was still just as wonderful. Jeff gave a beautiful blessing. It was also special because she wore the dress I was sealed to my parents in. Jeff wasn't a fan of how long it was for such a small baby, but it was so neat for her to wear something that is so special in my family. The P-man looked like a little stud in his outfit too! I wish I would have gotten some of the two of them together, o-well. It was a fabulous day! Thanks so much for all the family and friends that were there, it meant so much to have you there and we missed those who couldn't come! Isn't she so perfect! I love this picture of her laying on the grass. She is so pure and clean and perfect ! I love her!

Disneyland

By
A little late but . . . We Went To Disneyland! So you may or may not know that we went to Disneyland back in July. It was so much fun! As we were planning the trip I was really worried about how it would be taking 2 babies there, in my mind they were way too young to do anything there but boy was I wrong! All of us had a great time and we all went on tons of rides, even Emily! Here is a list of all the rides we went on: (The bold ones were P's very favorites) Disneyland Railroad Train Enchanted Tiki Room The Jungle Cruise Tarzan's Tree House Pirates of the Caribbean Haunted Mansion Winnie the Pooh It's a Small World Story Book Land canal boats King Aurthur's Carousel Dumbo Mad Tea Party Tea Cups Peter Pan Mr. Toad's Wild Ride Pinocchio Finding Nemo Submarine Autopia (Cars) Did you know babies could do this much! I sure didn't! I even nursed during 4 of the above mentioned rides which was so nice and saved tons of time! They both did so well on all of the...
