Ready for the Holiday Weekend!

This is the first night this week that I haven't had to do work when I put my babies down, so I felt like posting some pics of my kiddos. The kids are excited about their Independence Day parties at school tomorrow. We are going to South LA to hang out with friends in Baton Rouge on Saturday & to spend time with Daniel's parents on Sunday and Monday. My little man lost his second tooth today at school. This was the other loose one that the dentist noticed a few months ago. I hope we are done for a while with loosing teeth! He was pumped to go to sleep tonight because he said that the tooth fairy was going to bring him $40. Lol. He has no idea about money. He better hope he gets $2 this time. I hope all of our family and friends have a wonderful 4th of July Weekend!!!


Getting festive for the 4th of July!!!



Snaggletooth!




My rotten little girl! If we don't hurry up & get out of this apt- Avery & I are going to weigh 300 pounds.





On our way to see Kung Fu Panda 2. They don't look too super excited bc it was naptime and they were soooo tired. They LOVED the movie though!


Ready to go to Annabelle & Violet's house to swim!

Weekend at Nanny's

We went to Arkansas last weekend to meet the newest member of our family! Baby Kypton got released from Arkansas Children's Hospital last week. He seems to be doing great. He is beautiful, but didn't love his Mimi this trip! Lol. Hoping he likes me better next time. He did like his Uncle Daniel long enough for me to take a picture or two. He is absolutely perfect! Big brother Connor is so proud of him. Avery is totally 100% obsessed with babies. She couldn't touch him after being in the NICU for a week, but she stared at him at dinner all night. We had a great weekend swimming with the fam. The only kiddos we were missing this trip were Bella & Ava. Hoping we get to swim with them on our next trip. Daniel and I have decided that this is going to be our vacation home this summer. Lol. To keep our sanity- we are going to have to get out of this apt as much as possible, so I see lots of trips to New Orleans & Arkansas in our future!!! When we got back from Arka, Hudson noticed that he had a very loose tooth. He played with it until it finally fell out. He was so excited about the Tooth Fairy! He went right to sleep, so she could come. He was very happy about his $3, but was MAD and upset that she took his tooth with her.

So Long Pebble Beach...

Well, we are officially no longer homeowners. We closed on our house on Monday of this week. We sold our house to some of our very best friends. I definitely got emotional our last day there, but the kids could have cared less. I just kept thinking about bringing our babies home to this house when they were born & all the memories that were made there. I am already missing my neighbors & our pool! Lol. I seriously think that we went swimming every single day for the last 16 days straight before we moved. Now we are starting a new chapter at the Landing Apartments in Bossier City. It is pretty small, but it is relatively clean. We have a playground right outside our door and we do have a pool here. Daniel and I are not loving life right now, but it will be fine. The kids are happy & that is all that matters. We met with our builder this afternoon & he said he should have our house ready by Halloween! I am already taking the kids to do extra activities in the afternoons, so I can keep them busy & out of the apt as much as possible. We do have some friends that just moved into the apartment. They have a little boy that is in Hudson's class & a new baby that Avery adores. We have already gotten together to play this week. I know Hudson & Avery already miss Annabelle, Violet, Lainey & Lexy in our old neighborhood, so I am thrilled that they have a few friends to play with here!


Our first home!

Taking the last dip in our pool before the move!

Our little fish! And yes our weekday bathing suits were panties & underwear.


The kid's beds were taken down the night before our big move, so we let them

sleep in the same bed. They were snuggled up all sweet, but by the time I got my

camera this is how I found them.

Baby Kypton

My nephew Tommy & his wife Lindsey welcomed their beautiful baby boy, Kypton Thomas, into the world last week. He was taken to Arkansas Children's Hospital the day after he was born with heart problems. He is the picture of health weighing almost 9 pounds. Saturday was his first really good day with his heart rate staying around 120, where it should be. If all goes well, they can take him home next week to be with their 5 year old Connor. Please lift up this little angel along with his Mama & Daddy in prayer. I can't wait to see him next weekend in Arkansas!!!
