May 2016

May was the first time that B ever got a stomach bug and it was a doozy. He threw up for over a week and at least 30 other people that we know of also got it including everyone who was in the house with us except for me and Izzy. IT WAS HORRIble.

We made it over to my friend Jamie's to hang out at the very end of the week thinking we were finally germ free but unfortunately Jamie and Molly got sick a few days later :(

Breakfast on Mother's Day with Mom and Granny.

Todd and I headed out for a much needed date night when we got back and went to Hall's our favorite restaurant.

Pool playdate.

Last day of school. Seriously this happened in 9 months. It's so unbelievable how much he grew up this past year. 

He loves school and really had fun with his teachers Ms. Paula, Ms. Noni, and Ms. Annalyle. He is going to a new school next year and it is definitely bittersweet!

Dad took off one day and we had a fun family beach day.

Where sister unfortunately got a sunburn :( and I felt like the worst mom ever!

Izzy 3 Months

Trying on my sun hat...

First time in the jumbo...still a little wobbly!

Just hanging with my bro...

First nap in the crib!

Happy girl!

Snoozin on a boat ride...

Todd thought it would be cute to get a picture of them together every month...only we are realizing our big boy is way too big for a onesie these days. So he will be wearing clothes from now on ha.

Sweet sister is 3 months old! She is still doing awesome...sleeping really well in the rock n play so of course I had to move her into the crib to mess things up. We started on May 18th and she has done pretty well, I put a pillow under one end and rolled up a towel under the sheet so it feels a little more snug like the rock n play. 

She is still the happiest sweetest baby!

April 2016

April FLEW by! We started off the month with a fun visit from Tiggz and her sweet kids, Colt and Gray. 

They had so much fun playing together one night when they all came over. This is Brynlee (Chanel's little girl), Gray, Brooks, and Colt holding Izzy.

We went over to B's friend Stafford's house to play one day and he had the best time.

We tried a new sushi restaurant (new to us its been around forever) called Locals and the food was really good, Brooks had a great time eating his peanut butter crackers with his chopsticks.

I took this photo one afternoon when I found my poor cup of coffee that I think I had reheated like 3 or 4 times and never got to drink. This happens pretty much every single day. I am lucky and Todd usually brings me my first cup in bed every morning so I chug that before the kids get up and its a good thing because for some reason I can never quite make it through a second cup.

Todd and I snuck away to Myrtle Beach for one night to celebrate his birthday and see his two favorite bands (311 and SOJA). We had so much fun and it was a great first trip away because we were so close and really were only gone about 24 hours. This is the only picture I got and clearly I need to take a selfie class because I always look scared for some reason.

At the last minute we decided to take Brooks to the circus and I'm so glad we did because it ended up being one of the last few weeks of elephant performances! B loved it and he is still talking about it.

Last chance to see an elephant do a headstand!

We had our first pool day of the season and it was a big success...

And Izzy walked the bridge for the first time. Fun month!

Izzy 2 Months!

Two Months!  Izzy celebrated her first easter :)

She is starting to give us a lot of smiles and enjoys playing with her toys!

This was hilarious...one day I went to get Brooks up from his nap and I laid her down in his bed for a second and he was being so cute with her...

Then as I went to take a pic he reached for her hand and starts dragging her! Oops

We also got to take a quick trip to VA to visit my grandfather while he was in the hospital...Izzy got to meet Nana too! This is the only pic I got sadly.  

I'm going to skip the stats this month because there really isn't much new...she is still sleeping really well and is the sweetest little babe! She got her two month shots and did great with them.
