Racecar bed!

The boys acquired a new racecar bed today and are blissfully happy about it!  I am too!  I was blessed and found it on freecycle and was the first one to email the previous owner about it!

Fish Fry

Yesterday was a great day!  We went to a fishfry with the boys, and they have a new favorite food!  FROGLEGS?!  I am serious!  They absolutely love them.  We all had a great time!  The boys had a blast.  Jaxon was being crazy when we first got there and ended up with a rugburn on his nose & forehead.  He looks pretty goofy and complains that it hurts!  They also had a great time wrestling with Jarett (age 13) and hanging out with an adorable 2-year old, Madalyn!  I also had a great time socializing with adult women!  Adult time is a good thing!  The only downside for the whole thing is I am back on low-carb at my Doctor's request, so wasn't able to eat the food.  I know I missed out, but what could I do?!

My Junior Photographers

My boys got ahold of the camera and these are some of their best work!

Crazy Moment of the Day!

I put the tent up for the boys today, and thought it would be something fun they could do without getting into trouble. What was I thinking?! Of course they found trouble. They had been having a blast playing in their tent, so I thought it would be extra special if I gave them some M&M's to eat in their tent. Hard to get into trouble with M&M's, right? WRONG! At first, I could tell they were eating their candy and all was well. It didn't take long for Jaxon to change gears. He was soon dropping his M&M's all over the floor of the tent. I found both boys with hammers in hand, smashing the M&M's. I wasn't pleased at the time, but this evening as I write this, I am laughing at their creativity! They are creative! I'd have never guessed they would have done that! Boys . . . . . never a dull moment!

Remembering Bradyn's first days


Bradyn Michael Blake was born on Saturday, December 15th at 7:26 a.m. He weighed 7lbs and was 20 inches long. It is so incredible to be a Mom for the second time! He is so sweet and we are totally in love with him. Jaxon thinks he is pretty neat too. He likes the "bee-bee" and is always wanting to look at him, kiss him, and even help with him. Bradyn spit up this morning, and Jaxon rushed to find a kleenex to clean him up. He isn't very gentle, but does his best! More pictures to come.

Remembering our first day at home with Jaxon!


Our first day at home has been good. Our first night at home was a test of endurance for Brady and I, and we passed with flying colors. We showed our little man that we can and will stay up all night and take care of his every little whim. We did get some much needed rest today, thanks to my Mom who just loves hanging out with her little grandson. Jaxon has even decided that his binky isn't soooooo bad.

Slept In

We slept til EIGHT o'clock this morning! Jaxon is still sleeping! He "worked" with Daddy all day yesterday, so I think he was wiped out! Bradyn is drinking chocolate milk and watching cartoons. It is overcast today, and I think we will have a lazy day!

I tried to upload a pic of the little guy, but I keep getting error messages!
