Back to work!

Well last week was the last week of maternity leave for my lifetime. A sad milestone. I spent lots of time snuggling the littlest. 

We also got the report from genetics finally that our guy has clean DNA!!! Praise God! There are still a few things that could pop up but for now they think he's perfectly fine with special eyes! 

We found out that mira has a repeat fungal infection in that ear. Ugh. Our trip to ENT was less than fun. I was ready to sign her up for swim team. I guess not now :-(

My man is so sweet. He demands attention, but when he gets it he's so very cute. 

He missed his mommy this weekend but was a very good boy for daddy!!! We all survived and I was kinda glad to be back at work with my friends. 

We played quite a bit today and just hung out together. 

He's starting to grab for toys and play. Toooooooo fast :-( 

Park!

We had really nice weather in Colorado and Theresa took the big kids to the dog park both mornings. They had a lot of fun! 

This guy is just too big. He loves to sit up and look around. Where did my newbie go??? 

Sunday brooks and I went to Nebraska furniture Mart to check out the pres day sale. We found the perfect bunk beds for the boys. Griff was/is in love. 

They put them together that night.

It's been tough for Mira not getting to sleep in there. She knows she will get a room makeover, but waiting is hard. G sleeps great up top! 

Brooks sleeps on the bottom for now until Harrison is sleeping more consistently at night. Since he doesn't have a room I have to nurse him in our room at night. 

Trip!

Well we drove to Colorado last week for a Long weekend. It was a lot but a good trip. Pumping for a baby in a road trip is a whole new experience.....this is SOME of the stuff I needed. 10 pump bottles, 2 sets of pump sets, 3 large bottles, 3 thermoses, nipples for the bottles, 2 cooler bags, bibs, dish soap, medela wipes, bottle brush, the pump, rags, battery pack and car cord, sigh. It was a lot. 

Harry really did very very well. No extended crying and ate well in the car. 

Sully on the other hand had some really awful times....

We had a pretty lazy weekend. The kids had a. Last together. 

The first night was not good at all. Harry was up every couple hours but also sully. He woke up at 5 am too and would not go back to sleep for anything. 

Sweet boy in his swing. 

We took the kids to the railroad museum. 

Harry was a good boy. 

Sully kept running around saying, "this is fun, mom!"

We took a ride on this little train car thing. 

Then we went to a pizza place.

The kids got to make their own pizzas. Or rather Theresa got to make one for griffin! 

These girls had a great time together! 

Now this weekend it's back to work!!!!

Growing up

I've been noticing that as h keeps his eyes open more that he is really bothered by the sun at times, so I went ahead and ordered him some sunglasses. For now he hates them....I assume he will learn to tolerate them when the sun is bothering him this summer. 

Mira has seemingly turned 12 overnight. I'm seeing so much maturity at times all of a sudden. 

Harry and I are loving the back carriers and I'm getting better and better at it. 

He can never stay awake for long! 

Sully is still being his funny self. 

I got Harry a little seat the other day. He's not strong enough just yet to sit in it for long, but he's hating laying down where he can't see things! He loves watching tv haha. 

So much snow

Well, the kids have been out of school for 4 snow days. I can't say this maternity leave (which is over in 2 weeks) has been overly relaxing.....

Snow day activities included rainbow loom! 

Mira is getting really good at it!

We also did a big puzzle (well i did and then brooks helped finish it). 

The kids played in the snow just a little. Not a lot because it's so freaking cold. 

Mira is getting really good with Harrison. She loves to hold and talk to him. 

We made valentines boxes. 

We had our 2 month appt (2 weeks late). I was certain Harry was big, but turns out he's the smallest of all the boys so far. Sigh. 10 lbs 6 oz and 22 inches. 

He loooooooves to take a bath. Makes him really happy! 

That's it!
