The last of Spring...


GREYSON had his 2 month doctor's appointment a week or 2 ago, he measured in at 23 inches long, which is in the 50th percentile. His head was also in the 50 percentile at 41 cm. He weighed 12 pounds, which was in the 75th percentile.
He is doing really well! He is a very happy baby.....except for the evening hour of fussiness :) He likes to be swaddled at night to sleep, and takes a paci, although, not as often as his brother did. He loves to watch Connor....and Connor loves to give Greyson hugs or point out the animal that might be on Greyson's onesie that day.
Here are some more pics of them.





Connor is very much into the alphabet. He loves to say it over and over again...as well as identify letters anywhere he sees them. Here is is doing his alphabets in the bath tub.


Greyson enjoying his bath time too!


We went to the Davidson Concert in the park the other night with the Schnabel family. Here are some pics from the evening. We had a picnic dinner and the kids had a blast dancing to the band of Oz!






We are heading to Florida this week to celebrate my sister's graduation from high school. While down there we have a lot of fun things planned...pictures to follow when we return! Until then, HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY EVERYONE!!!

Mother's Day



I think Mother's Day has become my favorite holiday!! Maybe it is because my husband makes me feel so special for being a mother to our children. Yesterday was such a treat! The gift giving began at 11pm on Saturday night...I went to bed for the first full night sleep I have had since giving birth to Greyson. This little gift began the year I had Connor....Jeff taking all night duties while I restfully recharged my batteries in the guest bedroom :) We went to church followed by brunch. After a family nap hour...we went to the Lazy 5 Ranch to do the drive through animal safari. What a wonderful day!!!
I also couldn't help but share these picture.....I still think they look pretty alike.

Photo Session

Wanted to share a few pictures from our most recent photo session....greyson's newborn pics. Thank you to the always amazing photographer, Jody G! Enjoy!!








And the Doctor says....

Just wanted to update you all on the boys stats after they went to the doctor last week.

Connor had his 2 year check up. He is weighing 32 pounds and measuring 36" (or 3 Ft.!!) Both are in the 90% for his age. He has been running in the 90%s since he was 1 month old!!!



Greyson has his 1 month check up. He weighed 10 pounds, 2 ounces and was 22" long. Weight is in the 70% and length is in the 75%. His head measured at the 75% as well. So far Greyson is not following in his brother's footsteps as being a big baby! But he still looks a lot like him. Here is a 1 month pic.



Connor is still going to "school" a few days a week to give mommy and Greyson a break. He is doing so much better being a big boy....walking to the car, walking up and down the stairs, etc. Greyson is starting to smile socially...so we know the giggles and coos are not too far behind. Greyson is getting better with sleeping too. The past few nights we have had only 1 night time feeding with a wake up call around 6. That is not too shabby!! Soon we will have Connor's big boy room together so that we can get Greyson into his own room too. Hopefully we will have some pics of that by the end of the month!
