She's All Packed & Ready to Go

I have been doing a lot of packing lately. Packing for Houston this weekend and packing for our big move. (which I need to blog about) As I was packing a few things, I walked in and saw this.


I thought it was so cute. She had all the things important to take with her. She said, "I got all my stuff. Going on a trip to the airport to get Daddy."

She just kept taking stuff out and adding it to her box.





Stacking one thing on top of the other.

Of course she had her toy story toys, barbie and ken, a book, paper, her mini nail polishes, a microphone, flip flops, an elmo book, lipstick, boogie wipes, her purse, her princess slippers,

a play potty,

her doctor's kit,



Pogo the monkey, Rex, Lotso and her plate and bowl. I should have gone though her bag to look at what else was in there. But I think it's safe to say she is all packed and ready to go!

First Mother's Day With Two!

Mother's Day this year was just okay for me. It seems holidays are always so much different if Darrin is not with us. We usually don't have to spend them apart, but if we do, they are kinda hard. With that being said, it was Mother's Day and I am extremely blessed to call these sweet babies mine.

"Of all the rights of women, the greatest is to be a mother."



My little girl is getting so big.






We spent part of the day with my mom. We went to lunch, walked around the harbor and later stopped at Cold Stone. The weather was beautiful, we laughed and just enjoyed being together.






Reagan loves her Nonna so much.





Grayson slept for most of the time.
















Afterwards we went to see Honey for dinner. She had all 3 of her grandkids there with her and she was in heaven.

I hope all you ladies had a wonderful Mother's Day!

3 Months

Can you believe this monster is already 3 months? Here are some pictures I've taken here and there over the past month. Overall he's a pretty good baby, I just can not get that boy to nap! He wants to take 20 minute cat naps all through out the day.

He is wearing 0-3mths/3mths clothes, cooing and talking all the time and waking up usually once a night. We decided to take him off of his prescription formula, since insurance refused to cover it, and for about 2 weeks he's been on soy. We also started rice cereal before bedtime and he loves it. I think the books say to start solids around 4 months, but I guess when it's your second, you throw the books out and just start everything whenever you want.

Such a little cutie!

Do not laugh that my son is in a pink bumbo.
