Good times

We were celebrating a few things last night....

Scott starting his new job...

(we've waited 2 months to celebrate)

Scott being done with his 1st year

(Surprisingly, now that it's over...it did go by pretty fast)

Scott's 1st paycheck

(which is why we've waited 2 months...)

This weekend we planned on finishing painting our bedrooms,

going shopping for a few summer items,

& relaxing.

Instead, Scott found out he has bronchitis & Avery spent

our celebratory night in the ER.

Guess we'll try it again next weekend.

I wish Taylor & I were BFF's in real life....

Maybe it's the way she flips her hair....

Maybe its how much she loves her fans...

Maybe it was the fireworks...

It could be because she played 3 different instruments while

singing on this floating tree...

Maybe it was her 'faster than a blink of an eye' outfit changes...

It's probably because I got THIS close while she

was floating through the crowd on this balcony....

or the confetti & streamers....

It's probably because of the sincere emotion we

feel when she sings her songs...

Or maybe it was:

the ballerinas...

the dancers that told the stories of her songs...

feeling like I was watching a play/movie/concert/broadway show/tv show/lazer light show/ cirque de sole performance all AT. THE .SAME. TIME.

watching her play at least 5 different guitars, ukulele, piano & banjo

Whatever it was...

This night was seriously one of the BEST NIGHTS OF MY LIFE.

And I don't care if you're a hater of Taylor Swift.

Seriously, she's so talented.

I'm a fan forever Taylor!!!!

Don't I miss the days where I could sleep this hard, for as long as I wanted?!

I love that Jax can sleep so soundly while being held, and that he L.O.V.E.S cuddling and being loved on all the time...but I also hate that he STILL can't sleep through the night.

He's never slept through a whole night in his 7 months of life.

This week, a miracle happened. He slept for 6 hours straight (for one night)... but then the same routine of being up every couple of hours to eat and refusing to be in his bassinet happened.

I'm running out of energy from no sleep & constant feedings. We thought by now he'd be

able to do it...AH!

Good thing we REALLY love this clingy, needy, adorable, little baby.

I mean, just look at those big, soft cheeks and that slobber!

7 months!

Dear Mom{s}

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY to the best Mom{s}

a girl could ask for!!

Love & miss you!!!!

rice cereal??

{not so much.....}

Neither of my babies have enjoyed this stuff!

Avery, March 2009

Playing Together!

Usually when I go downstairs to start laundry,

(or do any house cleaning for that matter....)

Jax will start crying because I'm out of sight &

Avery will just go on doing whatever she's doing.

But on this day...

I caught Jax & Avery playing together while I was starting some laundry

& I'm SO excited.

Hopefully times like these become more frequent.

It's so cute watching them play together.

Avery was really patient showing him the different buttons to

push, and he was loving the attention from her.

And I was loving that I was able to get

a whole bunch of laundry done while they were entertaining each other.
