BOOO... SNOW!

I have loved the weather we've been having,

it was a pretty good spring, awesome summer,

and even better fall...

UNTIL it started snowing!

This is one girl who LOVES the SUN.

I HATE being cold and I get so sick of

the snow...

I think Beck feels the same way.

He started crying when he woke up to snow

and I told him he couldn't go outside and ride his bike.

But just like me, he is making do....

He cuddled up to his little bro on the couch

and forced him to play action figures with him.

REALLY, He kept shoving the action guy

into Crosby's hand until he would hang onto it!

Hang on tight Crosby because it could be a LONG WINTER!

Oh, and Beck calls Crosby, ESPY.

I'll have to make a post about all the cute things he's

saying right now. I don't want to forget them!

Balding at 3 months

My baby Crosby is 3 months old today!

It seems like he's been here a lot longer than that.

He has turned into such a good baby.

Big smiles and laughs all day, unless he's tired!

He also has been losing all his hair.

It is time we shave it off.

His pillow looks like a cat pillow.

Hair everywhere... YUCK!

The best part is, the back of his head has tons of hair.

It's just the top that's thinning out.

I am thinking about keeping his hair, ugly and stringy

so he can go as an old man for halloween and

I can give him a comb over!

The other thing that's hot right now in Crosby's life

is his full figured thighs!

I actually love changing his diapers...

it gives me an excuse to look at him and all of his

chubbyness.

Crosby is also a big time slobber bucket.

All of his shirts are sopping wet after about 5 minutes.

He loves Beckham and laughs whenever

Beck gets in trouble.

The last thing worth mentioning is his gas.

This kid can clear a room with one toot.

SBD... Yeah, he's got them!

He is stinky!

Stinky bum and Stinkin' cute.

Love you Crosby!

2 days

It's crazy to think, but it is true,

my sister-in-law and I had babies 2 days apart from each other!

It is going to be a blast to have cousins so close in age.

One little girl, Pyper, and One big fella, Crosby!

Little Pyper was born 2 days before Crosby.

I know it looks like Crosby is 2 months older, but he

is the younger one.

I am sure this is the start of many pictures these two

will have taken together.

Hopefully they'll be the best of friends.

Beck couldn't handle it, he had to be in one of the pictures!

Beck LOVES pictures of himself.

Adjusting

We couldn't wait for little Crosby to be part of our family,

We talked about it for months,

bought diapers, bottles, and made him a warm bed.

We had everything ready so that little peanut

would be comfy and cozy in his new little house.

What we didn't do is think about Beck!

My little man, he Adjusted, he loved, he played by himself.

He brought me diapers, he was a big help.

He is now out of his CRIB and into the big boy bed.

He is struggling, he clings to the crib, wanting back in,

He hates going to bed. He cries "WHY!", every night.

He crawls out of bed at least 15 times before he'll fall asleep.

It has drove me batty. I have wanted to rip my hair out, strand by strand.

It just dawned on me...

He's still adjusting. He is finding his place, in his new bed,

and in the family.

I NEED TO RELAX!

Cut the kid some slack.

He's doing great and if he tackles this bed thing

like he tackles his little brother when I'm not looking,

Then he'll get it in no time!

So be patient Beck, I too am ADJUSTING!

Baby Shower

Saturday was my little sister Kristen's baby shower. It was a BLAST.

I have very talented sisters who decorated everything. Cute banners, cupcakes, old vintage toys, books, and since my sister is decorating her baby room in vintage Pooh, there were vintage pooh pictures in frames... Everything was amazing. BUT did I take pictures... NO!

I took pictures of the after party!

Here is the MOM to be with the baby Daddy,

That's right, the after party was on the boat!

My Brother brought his boat and we all pilled on for a good time.

We tried to get Beck in the water but he wasn't havin' it!

He thought about it.

He even got his feet wet

But in the end all he wanted to do was drive the boat.

I had such a good time, I can't wait for the next baby shower!

From Beginning to End

For my birthday a few weeks ago, my best friend Stacey bought me a CD!

A CD? What the CRAP... WHo even has a CD PLAYER?

I laughed, enjoyed the flash back and ran out to my car,

the only CD player I have,

Took 5 minutes to figure out how to load a CD into my 6 disk CD player,

(nothing but the best)

Sat a listened to ADELE 21!

I can't remember the last time I actually listened to a whole

Album from Beginning to End.

I can't get enough of this CD.

My Fave is TRACK 3!

Thanks for the flashback and the awesome DISK, Stacey,

That's why you're my Bestie!

Here are a few pics Crosby.

He is so big already.

This sleeper maybe a 6 months.

Power to the People

and His crazy HAIR

Crosby's Blessing

Sunday we blessed Crosby and I had high hopes

of taken TONS of pictures but with the busy day

fussy kids, and me being too busy bossing Aaron,

I had no time to take pics!

My Sister Deena bought the boys matching ties,

which I LOVED, and they hated.

The whole time at church Beck kept trying to take his off.

I remember growing up and hating when my Mom would

make my sister and I match or buy us the same

stuff... HATED IT.

Sorry boys, it must be what Moms do!

the blessing was great. We had lots of family come

and spend the day with us.

(again, no pics)

I did take a few pictures of the kids

playing in the pool

in their church clothes,

while the parents talked and ate!

It was an awesome day. I truly love spending time

with both our families.

Can't wait until next weekend when we all get

together again!

Just a random Picture of Beck stacking his cars.

He thought it was coolest thing ever.
