Rob's first day home alone

Today was Rob's first day at home without Will and Caroline. Caroline Took Cupcakes To School For Her Birthday And She Was Super Excited....The house was so quiet. Too quiet. Rob was a dream and so playful and helped to cheer this Momma up. He also tried out his Johnny Jump Up today, and he loved it! He giggles and coped. So sweet. I have a feeling the house will not be quiet for long!

Our Weekend

This weekend we went to the hotel to stay with Jesse. He had a Nashville overnight, so we thought it would be fun to go and stay with him and check out downtown Nashville.

 

When we arrived, the kids had to check out the pool. It was freezing, but you know kids...they swam anyway! 

 

The next morning, we headed downtown and checked out a candy shop called Rocket Fizz. The kids were in heaven! We ate lunch at Jack's BBQ and headed to Charlotte's birthday!

 

Sweet Charlotte turned two and she had a cute little monkey themed birthday. The kids had lots of fun playing with their cousins. Needless to say, they went to bed early that night! 

 

 

Sunday, the kids went to church with my parents. Don't they look sweet??? 

Half day

Today was the half day of Kindergarten for the entire class. Caroline was ecstatic to go again, since she had a wonderful time on Wednesday. After school we picked Caroline up and headed to Chick fil a for lunch. While we were there we bumped into sweet Charlotte and Aunt Kiki they were celebrating her 2ND birthday!

 

First day of Kindergarten

Today was Caroline's first day of Kindergarten. She was beyond excited. She had her backpack ready, school clothes on, and breakfast eaten by 7:30. School did not start do another hour! Her teacher is Ms. Brown, the same teacher Will had. We are very excited about that because we know what to expect. We drive her to school and went to her classroom to see her off. I picked her up at 12 and we headed to lunch with our sweet friend Lila! Such a fun day. Love my precious baby girl!

My baby bird...

Tomorrow is Sister's first birthday of Kindergarten. A few days ago, I saw this idea on my friend's instagram and decided I had to do it. So I picked out a necklace for her and one for me. I jotted down the sweet poem and wrapped the gifts for her. She opened them up tonight before bedtime. She loved the necklace, she told me that when she missed me at school, she going to kiss her bird. Melt my heart. Love her.

Rob - 3 months

 THREE MONTHS

 

 

 

Our baby Rob is Three Months! HOW DID THAT HAPPEN???

 

Weight:

Thankfully, we did not have to go to the doctor this month, so I have know clue what little man ways...I do know that he is gaining weight though! Ha!

 

Medical Issues:

Sweet boy has struggled with reflux. We have continued on Zantac. We are still on 1.2 of Zantac and most days we are a happy camper. I am still eliminating dairy from my diet and that has made a big difference too!

 

 

Sleep:

Little man is sleeping wonderfully! This is a happy Momma! He eats for the last time at 8:00 pm and usually falls asleep around 8:30-9:00 and sleeps until 6:00-6:30 am! Woo hoo!!!

 

Clothes:

He is wearing all three month clothing and some six month that has been washed (Will's hand me downs). I just love his little clothes and I am relishing in dressing him cute while I can!

 

Diet: 

Exclusively Breastmilk...via nursing

He takes a bottle still like a champ though, and receives one a couple of times a week. When he takes a bottle, he eats around 5-6 ounces! The type is a Tommee Tippee.

 

Nicknames:

This child has a million nicknames. Some favorites are Monkey, Baby Boy, Mr., Little Brother, and Boss Cat.

 

 

Baby Gear:

You still love to sleep in your Rock and Play, but you sure do love to lay in your bed too. You love your mobile. You will lay in there for 30 minutes staring at those little animals float around. You are starting to get frustrated in the bouncy seat, so you sit in it less and less. You like the Bumbo and the swing still. You like your play mat, but not tummy time!

 

 

Crying:

You do not cry very often. Mostly when hungry or tired! I will take it!!!

 

Likes:

You like to coo and smile so much. You are a happy boy. You like to eat...I think that is obvious based on your size. You like kicking your feet. You like to take a bath. You like mornings better than nights. You like your family... and we like you.

 

Milestones: 

You can almost always hold your head up now. You are discovering your feet. You are starting to truly focus on objects at a distance. You love your hands in your mouth. You celebrated your big sister's 5th birthday.

Caroline's birthday

Today we kicked off Caroline's birthday at Dunkin Donuts. Girl loves doughnuts!! Afterwards, we headed to church to praise the One who have us the body of Caroline. Then we headed to Panchos with my parents to celebrate the big five years old. Then we headed to Cole's swimming party. Cole and Caroline share a birthday, so it was fun to celebrate with him! We then headed to the movies to see Planes. We met Jack and Abby, so that was a blast. Whew...we are tired!!!

Caroline is FIVE!!!!

Today is sweet baby girl's birthday. She is five. How is that even possible? These five years have flown by.

Caroline,

Fun weekend with Dad

We stayed with Jesse at the hotel in Nashville last night. He was technically at work, but did not have to fly that day, so we just had a family fun day! We swam, are breakfast at the hotel, and shopped at Opry Mills. So fun. Having a pilot dad is fun sometimes...sometimes!
