Sweetness!

Here are a few pictures I took last weekend. Addisyn (our cousin) lives in Alabama now and she and SB are BEST FRIENDS! They miss each other so much. She was in town visiting for the weekend and we had her over to play. They played outside, they dressed up and played dolls. They had the best time and even let Sophie play with them. Our cousin Brandon also came over on Saturday to play. He finally sat still long enough to hold Andrew and I snapped a few pics. Brandon will be 1 on the 17th of February (he shares a birthday with Uncle Syd!) and he is always on the go!! We love our family and cherish all the good times we have!!!

Daddy has big plans for this little boy...boy scouts, jujitsu and much more!

Here are the girls playing dress up!

Sweet Boys!

Brandon is not so sure what to think about his little cousin!

Date Night with Daddy

This past Saturday night Sarah Beth had a "date night" with her Daddy! He took her to see the Ms Symphony Orchestra in Jackson. She absolutely loved it. It was the "Beatles" show so she knew several of the songs b/c she and Syd listen to The Beatles often. She called me during intermission that night to tell me how "awesome" the concert was. I am glad that she had a great time with her Dadddy.

Sarah Beth chose to eat at Keifers for dinner...yum!

They had seats way up in the balcony but could see very well!

Sarah Beth having a great time!

Hanging Out...

We had a pretty laid back weekend! Sarah Beth had a birthday party on Saturday morning and then she went to MeMe and Pop's house for the day. She helped Jason plant flowers and hung out with him. She loves Uncle Jason! We will miss Jason b/c he is going back to school today. Syd had a meeting in Jackson so mom came over to help me clean the house. I still haven't been released from my Dr. so I shouldn't do any heavy duty work right now! :) Sophie and Andrew played and napped while we worked!
Saturday evening I took the girls to Mass and then mom met us at El Sombrero. It was good to get out of the house and spend time with my girls. On Sunday, Syd took the girls to the KC's to eat Meatloaf Dinner with his family. I stayed home with Andrew and relaxed!
Here are a few pics from our relaxing weekend!

I walked in the living room to find the girls laying on the trampoline watching TV.

Andrew is 5 weeks old today...hard to believe!

I will enjoy these relaxing weekends because soon SB will be playing soccer on Saturday mornings. She is super excited!!!

A Birthday Party for 2!

On Sunday we celebrated Uncle Jason and Aunt Ko-Ko's birthdays. Jason's birthday was on December 31 but he was out of town and Kori's birthday was January 11 so we had a combined party! Syd grilled burgers and everyone had a good time hanging out, watching football and playing with the kids! Here are a few pics from the party!

Andrew enjoying his swing during the party!

Big Sisters, Baths, Bedtime Stories

We are enjoying Andrew so much around our house!! The girls are the BEST big sisters and they always want to help change diapers, feed him or pick out his outfits. They love to hold and love on him also!!
Andrew went to the Dr. 2 weeks ago for his 2 week check-up. He weighed 7 lbs, 13 oz. He is 4 weeks old now and I wonder what he weighs?! He has a cold and his little nose is stuffy. I hate that there is nothing I can do for him except give him some extra love! I let him sleep with me when he is feeling bad!

Here is Syd reading a bedtime story to all the kiddos!

Andrew getting his 1st "real" bath!! He loves it!!
Bryan came by to meet Andrew!
Sophie feeding her brother...so sweet!

Andrew's Homecoming Day

Andrew and I did so well at the hospital that they let us go home after just 2 nights. I guess they think we are "pros" since this is our 3rd baby! Ha!! We didn't arrive home until around 6:00 that evening. The girls were super excited that we were home. Andrew had a great night and has done really well ever since!! He eats and sleeps!! He is a really laid back baby...thank goodness!! He eats about every 3-4 hours and sometimes goes 4 1/2 hours at night if I am lucky! I couldn't ask for anything better! He has been sleeping in our room right next to my bed for the last 2 weeks but I decided to let him sleep in his crib last night. He did great!

I took him to the Dr. on Monday for his 2 week check up...His stats are 7 lbs 13 oz and 19 in long. He left the hospital weighing 7 lbs and 1 oz so he is doing great on gaining weight!!

Here are a few pics on our Homecoming Day!
