Backyard fun!

We have the sweetest neighborhood kids across the street. Benjamin and Julia. They play so well with Mallory & Colton. It's been nice to have them over in the backyard where I don't have to get everyone dressed and out the door!!

Friends over for dinner

We had our friends over for hot dogs and hamburgers tonight! It was nice to catch up with some of our friends and introduce them to baby Sawyer! We love the Birchfields, Petridges and Burrows! Mallory enjoyed having Avery & her sister's over to play. Colty loved seeing Hunter again!! Great friends from church!

January 2015

Just a few random pictures from this month of January! We have sure enjoyed adding Sawyer to this crazy mix! Love our babies!

Trying on Colty's baby blessing outfit for this coming weekend!

Chuck-E-Cheese!

The two older kids and I enjoyed our morning out at Chuck-E-Cheese today for Brixton's 5th birthday. Mallory still considers Brixton her boyfriend and we enjoy the Bridger's friendship. Daddy stayed home with Sawyer bear and I felt good knowing he takes a bottle just fine. The kids had a blast!

Baby gate for... Colty!

This week, we bought our very first baby gate. We didn't buy it for Sawyer or even Mallory. We bought it for Colton. He has a hard time sleeping in his room during nap time. He wants to get out and play. I use to lay with him after we read books until he falls asleep but I just don't have time for that anymore. I'm hoping by keeping the door open but the gate closed so he can see me when needed that he'll stay put and help himself go to sleep. I'll still read him and Mallory one or two books and sing a song but then I'm out of there.

Twins!

Sawyer: 1 month old

Sawyer is one month old today!! He is growing good so far! He is drinking the Enfamil formula just fine and loving his siblings. I mentioned to Dr Jones that he had this weird looking rash on his stomach. Dr Jones let me know that I'm baking him because that rash is a heat rash! Ha! Oops! It's so hard to tell in the Winter months if the baby is warm enough. The house feels decent but there is a fan on in my room to drown out the older kids noise. Apparently those footsie jams are good enough for this baby!! Love our Sawyer bear!

New Master Bedroom furniture!

I bought some Annie Sloan chalk paint and painted over our chest of drawers, dresser and 2 side tables this week! I chose clean linens which is a light gray color. I love the way they turned out! 

Dustin had his 1 month ICD appointment in Redwood City so he stopped at IKEA for us and got us a new bed frame! I love it!! Fun update to our Master bedroom!

Lunch date

Today my sweet girlfriends came over to my house and made lunch so I didn't have to find a sitter! It was so nice to see them and introduce them to Sawyer. Julie brought me the cutest crib sheet and burp cloths. Karen and Kristin brought a cute outfit and toys!

First week back to church!

Today was our first Sunday back to church as a family of five. 

Sawyer is 4 weeks old. Mallory is almost 4 & 1/2 and Colton is just over 2 years old.
