Mother's Day Weekend

This picture is of my sweet Love Bug this morning in his 6-9 month jammies! This sweet boy is just soo long :)

We had a very busy weekend this past few days but it was all so much fun! Saturday we got up and went to my Mom and Billy's house to have a huge garage sale with them as well as Jack's parents. We had a huge crowds come through, but I only made $4! LOL! I guess no one wanted everything I had that I didn't want either ha! Saturday night we went to Frontera with Mom, Billy and my brother Kyle and it was fun just to hang out.

My boys made my first Mother's day so awesome! I got up after getting to sleep in to breakfast, flowers and a card! It was wonderful. After doing a little cleaning we ran to the store for lunch stuff to make lunch for both of our Mom's. About 2 or so, Mom, Billy, Maureen and Jack came over and we ate an awesome lunch. We had steak, mashed potatoes that were baked, stuffed zucchini, salad, bread and Jack made dessert. Everything turned out so yummy! Jack and I were very excited to make all of this for our Mom's! After lunch, the boys all went to Home Depot and got mulch and flowers and came home and worked on making the yard soooo much better! We had never planted or done anything to the side of our house since we moved in and now it looks sooooo much better!It was a great ending to an awesome weekend!

Happy Birthday Uncle Michael

Today would have been Michael's 23rd birthday. It's hard to believe that it has been 4 and a half years since the accident! He was such an awesome person and I wonder what he would have been like today. He had a way of making everyone laugh and just filling the room with joy. He had a passion for music and I know that he is in Heaven rocking away!

Today Holden wore one of his guitar onsies just for his Uncle Michael.I feel so blessed to have this little guy and be able to pass on Michael's name to him! Now from Holden Michael:

Dear Uncle Michael,

Happy Birthday! I hope that you are having a good day up in Heaven playing our guitar for all the Angels. I know I got to meet you before I was born, and I know that one day I will see you again. Mommy and Daddy tell me I am very lucky to to share your name and tell me about how cool you were. Maybe one day Uncle Kyle will teach me to play the guitar too so I can be cool like yall are. I love you Uncle Michael and wish you were here to play with me! Happy Birthday!I love you, Holden Michael

Weekend at Chan's

So I know it has been FOREVER since I have been on here! I feel like I have so much to catch up on! This past week has been super busy and I feel like we have been going none stop! This past weekend we took a weekend trip up to our friend John and Chandra's house in North Carolina. John recently was deployed in the Army and is currently in Germany and Chan and the kids are leaving as soon as their housing is approved to be with him so we wanted to spend the weekend with them before they leave. Chanda and I have been friends for TEN years so it is going to be VERY weird with out her here for the next three years while she is in Germany! We had a lot of fun with her and the kids and we were so happy for them to finally meet Holden. These pictures are from my facebook page so that is why they are so little but I thought it was kinda cool so you can see some of what we did all weekend! Over all it was a wonderful relaxing weekend with great friends who we are going to miss sooooo much!

Hanging out with Jacob!

Last weekend we had some of our awesome friends Mandy and Bill and their two kids Abbie and Jacob come over to spend the weekend. They live about an hour and a half away but with the bad weather they just decided to stay the weekend. We had so much fun just hanging out and watching movies and hanging out! Saturday after one of Holden's naps, Jacob was so excited to go ad get in his bed with him and "babysit" Holden! It was so stinkin cute! Here are a few pictures that I grabbed!

We had so much fun and we can't wait for more of our awesome friends Chan and the kidos to come in this weekend!

Happy 4 Month Birthday Holden!

Yesterday my sweet baby boy turned 4 months old! Sometimes I can't believe that it has only been 4 months and others it feels like yesterday when he was born! I love this guitar outfit he has on this month and am SOOO glad I got it out since the tag says 6-9 months but this brand must run super small because it is almost too small for him!

He is now in 3-6 month clothes.... well most..... he is so skinny that 0-3 month shorts in what he is wearing still but everything else mostly 3-6!

He is also still in size 1 diapers

He so badly wants to sit up and this is how he sits most of the time! ha!

He is now only on formula. I decided to stop breastfeeding about three weeks ago simply because my production got really low and it really wasn't even worth it anymore. But he is a wonderful bottle eater so he didn't mind

He is eating anywhere between 3-5 oz every 3 hours or so day and night. Lately he has been waking up a lot more during the night for some reason but last night he actually went back to just waking up once.

Such a sweet boy

He LOVES his paci and his blanket! But also loves to chew on his hands when a paci isn't around

He is back to liking his car seat again and usually falls asleep or just sits in the back talking

He is such a happy baby and loves talking and flirting!

He still has blue eyes now... no sure if they will last or not.

This is the back of his outfit and I love it because it looks like the strap of the guitar on the front! How cute is that?!?

He still hates the bath but I don't think it is the water. I have just put him in the shower with me a few times and he doesn't mind at all and he didn't mind his feet in the water at the beach so not sure what all that is about.

But the BIGGEST NEWS of this 4 month update that I couldn't say at 3 months is:
HE IS OFF ALL HIS MEDS AND DOING WONDERFUL!!
I know I posted about this but this is just so wonderful! And he is doing awesome and shows no signs of any weakness anywhere! I am going to have a friend of mine check him out maybe in a month or so but he is doing fabulous!

Still trying to sit up silly boy!

This face is SOOO funny to me! Hes like are we done yet can I have my paci and blanket and go to bed now! ha!!

This makes him so happy!

Next month I am going back to the stamp pad. Paint+4 month old= not so much fun!

We also went to the doctor yesterday for his 4 month check up and he is now 26 1/2 inches long and in the 92% and 14 lbs and in the 32%! Just so very long and skinny!
