Father's Day: Pirate Style

Every year, I take pictures of Andrew holding letters to spell DAD and make a collage to give to Kyle. This year, Austin decided he wanted to join in on the fun. I chose a pirate theme since Kyle is obsessed with pirates and nautical settings.
The card read "you ARRGGHH the best daddy in the whole world!"





Happy Father's Day Kyle! 
Love, 
Andrew and Austin

Four months old...and growing!

This mama is officially on summer vacation and can finally love on the little men in her lives. While my new job has been amazing, it feels great to turn off the brain...and the computer...and just enjoy my little family. Andrew has been such a great big brother to our Austin! He loves greeting him in the morning with his sweet raspy voice "Mornin' Austin!" and words cannot describe the smile that Austin gives to him. It absolutely melts my heart! I can't believe the brotherly love that exists already between these two.
At four months old and just about 14 pounds, Austin is a growing boy! He is such a sweet boy and LOVES the ladies! Man this kid knows how to flirt already! And uh, what I would do for that boy's eye lashes! Between his baby blues, long lashes, and that sweet, darling grin, I fear I am going to be in so much trouble.






So far, Austin:
* is doing better with tummy time, especially now that he is figuring out how to roll over.
* is STRONG! He loves to pull himself up from laying flat on his back and holding onto our hands. From here, he flexes his legs and goes right into a standing position. He prefers to stand over sitting.
* is giving mommy much delight with his ADORABLE baby squeals. They are just too dang cute!
* loves bath time
* is VERY chatty (For the life of me, I cannot figure out why he is so chatty or where he gets it from....)

Happy four month birthday my handsome boy!!

Stay tuned as we will officially be starting solid foods this week. Rice cereal is the first item on the menu and if he gives us the same entertainment that Andrew did, we are all in for a real treat!

Baby in a Bucket

I couldn't handle his cuteness so I had to share.

Behold, a baby in a bucket!
