4 month update

Braxten is now 4 months old. At his appointment he was 14.5 pounds and 26.5 inches long. He is continuing to grow and develop buy it makes me miss my little baby boy. He is wearing 6 month clothing because he is so tall. He can roll from his belly to his back, when he chooses to. He is really close rolling from his back to his belly. He loves his sister a lot. He is always smiling and giggling whenever she is around. If he is crying and I can't get to him right away, I send Braelyn to him to make him happy. He sleeps from 9/10 at night until 7 or later in the mornings. It's wonderful. He is my little light and melts my heart. 

Braelyn is getting big as well. She is 31 pounds and 37 inches. She will be 3 on the sixth. I can't believe my little girl is that old. It seems like just a couple months ago she was my smiling little baby laughing at Cooper the dog doing tricks for treats in my inlaws kitchen. We are having a Tangled birthday party. We are both super excited for it. Whenever Braxten is upset Braelyn will sing to him and I love to watch and listen to her. She is my little angel most of the time but we do butt heads probably once a day. She is very independent and head strong. 

I am just tryin to deal with the stress of being a mom and working 3 days a week at a daycare. It's been tough but we are making it work. I'm cutting back hours because the stress and being away from the kids was really getting to me. I need to make a list of fun things to do with the kiddos this summer. Suggestions?
We wenton a hike on Memorial Day and had a blast. Braelyn was such a little trooper

Getting Big

So, it's been a while since I've posted, but things have been crazy and changed a lot in the last few weeks. Braxten is getting so big. I'm not sure how much he weighs. At his two month appointment he was 12 pounds and 23 1/2 inches long. He has an appointment next Monday so we'll see how much he's grown since then. He is smiling and cooing and laughing and we are just having a ball with him. Braelyn is great with him and he loves her so much. Whenever he wakes up from a nap, she's right there ready to calm him down and tell him things will be okay.

Braelyn will be three on June 6. I can't believe how fast time is gone by. I remember it like it was yesterday her being my little baby girl just as big as Braxten. We are having a Tangled birthday party. I have been searching Pinterest and I'm getting so excited to plan this for her :) She has decided that it is fun to sing every song whether it's the radio, her movies, a tv show, or even a silly commercial. It makes me smile. She went to the dentist a few weeks ago and now asks everyday if she can go back. No cavities and 20 healthy teeth!!

I am working in the daycare at Golds Gym and enjoy it. However I do hope that I can move to the front desk at some point. 


That's a quick update for you! I will post again hopefully when Braxten hits 4 months!
