Back home

Our first morning home Gigi headed back to El Paso very early (LJ wasn't even awake yet), and Barrett was out of town for work, so the boys and I just spent the morning getting unpacked and settled ... And maybe there was a little cuddle time too!


Brothers! LJ has been very into hugging Evan lately...I don't even have to ask for it! Makes me so happy!!





Then on Friday we finally got to have our secret Santa play date with my mama friends - such a great time and so fun to see everyone!!

Evan and Hudson sitting together!

Evan's first time in a Johny Jumper - Ben and Kate's!

Now that Evan is sitting, he can take a bath outside of his infant bath (although we still like to use it most nights or when I am bathing them alone since he is just newly sitting)...


Saturday we had our Vivo brunch, and my new nephew Locke was finally able to join! He is just over a month old now (born 12-4)... and he was a perfect angel at his first Vivo brunch!

Evan giving Barrett and nose 'kiss'!


Saturday was a beautiful day, so LJ and I spent time working on riding his tricycle, Strider, and playing in his new wagon (all Christmas gifts)... he loves them all!! And needs a lot of practice on both bikes!!!




LJ loves his pilot hat from Queenie and Grandad - he insists on wearing it all the time. Sunday he wore it all through the mall- we had many comments and laughs!!

Trampoline Park

Went back to Trampoline Park on Sunday... LJ has gotten so much better and more confident - guess all the practice time on his little trampoline is paying off! Still so much fun for Dad...  And the Mamas finally get in on all the fun!  Last time we went I was VERY pregnant and couldn't jump... but not this time! I see a frequent Sunday family outing in our future! A little sliding time... And video gaming! Too much fun!!

Ellie - Our Earliest Crawler!

Our little 'surprise' baby got us again and started crawling 2 months earlier than the boys did! She was close for about a week, and then at just about 8.5 months, she took her first crawls! She is getting the hang of it quickly... time to secure the legos that seem to always be all over the floor! First she started rocking on her knees, and doing little army crawls/ knees/ army crawl to get places. Then about a week later, we saw her first crawls. Within a week after those first crawls, she was all over the place!!! She will come find me in the kitchen if I leave her sitting in the living room and will venture all over the house! She's not fast, but she's pretty good! And so proud of herself! Here are some videos of her progress... Ellie's first little mini-crawls: h ttp://www.youtube.com/watch? v=xm3GTgjZXbU And she has mastered the roll-to-sit move!

Mother's Day Celebrations

What a special and spoiled week I had!!! On Tuesday I picked these two precious things up from Champions:  Then the first celebration (well not including the Chick-fil-a mom-son date knight) was on Wednesday. LJ's class at WHPP had a Mother's Day Tea- and how lucky we were that Gigi came to town late on Tuesday night and was able to join me!!  Since Gigi was there (the only Grandmother in the room!), we got a table all to ourselves... and also LJ had twice the amount of work! He served both Gigi and me our tea/ lemonade, cookies, and fruit snacks!  He made me a very fun necklace and made me a new coffee mug all wrapped up...      I started crying when I read it: "This is the hand you used to hold when I was only 4 years old" with a hand print ned to it!!! How special!!  And a flower for Gigi!!!   This was outside LJ's classroom...  I am chopped liver with these two! Haha!!  We picked up Evan a...
