Life Lately

The girls wanted to have a camp out the other night so they set up the tent in the back yard..they only lasted until 3am and Sydney got cold and wanted to come in..london would have lasted all night i think!!

A couple weekends ago Dillon's cousin and his family came to visit and we went to the beach..we lucked out and it was good weather. The kids had a BLAST! They look forward to going back when it gets warmer here.

Made a quick bathroom stop at a restaurant and the girls were playing around on all the stuff!!

Turin looking cute as usual. When he is not fussy he is a very smiley, happy baby and he always loves us looking at him.

Turin's Blessing!

Well Dillon blessed Turin at church last week and it went well. The microphone worked so that meant we could hear Dillon and Turin did no cry so that was a good day for me!! He looked so cute in his outfit. He is two and a half months now and getting so big. At his two month check up he was 13lbs 6oz and in the 90% so not a small baby!! His fussiness is getting better. He has more better days then before. Some days he does cry more and you can tell he is in more pain and then he does not sleep so well during the day but those days are getting less and less. I am not sure if its the medicine that is helping or just his body is adjusting to everything. We Love him still no matter what though and glad he is in our family and I have hope he will be the happy, little baby he wants to be soon cause he sure smiles and laughs a lot when he is not crying!!

Looking so studly in his outfit..he is such a DOLL!!

My parents and Turin

The hat that came with the outfit..Dillon did not like it so he did not ware it for the blessing but we had to put it on after church cause he looked so cute!

Sadly out of all the pictures we took of the 5 of us this was the only one that was semi ok..pictures after church with no naps that day are NOT fun!

Happy Mother's Day!!

On Thursday at Sydney's school they had a Mother's Day tea party for us Mom's! They had made cute hats for us to wear and fake flowers and place mats on the tables that they worked very hard on. It all looked cute and they made cupcakes during the week for the party. The kids sang some cute songs for us and Sydney LOVED having just ME there with No siblings! I had a good Mother's Day and LOVE being a mom(most of the time! haha)

Last month at Sydney's school they had a Dad's night where Dillon helped Sydney make the present to give to us at the tea party..It was a cute bowl made out of clay I think and then they decorated it.

Sydney and me..notice the nice hat she made for me!!
