Last weekend we went to Cody and Allison's house for a pool party weekend trip!  Kress and Colson of course had to pose for a photo shoot.  They are so adorable, I can hardly stand it!
Allison was such a gracious hostess, and one adorable pregnant lady!  We can't wait to meet their little boy in just a few short weeks!
Katelyn and Adelyn loved the pool.  They would have stayed in the water the whole time if we let them!
Adelyn is very independent when she has her floaties on.  
I think I can officially say that Katelyn can swim.  Those swimming lessons have paid off for sure!
Of course her favorite part might have been jumping off the ledge with Daddy!  
Thanks for hosting us for a fun weekend Cody and Allison!  Y'all are too sweet and we can't wait to do it again next summer!

Let's Compare



I know, I know- Not supposed to compare your children, but it's fun to see how they are the same/different at different life stages.  So here we go, 4 month stats:

Colson- 17# (75%)             27in (97%)
Adelyn- 15# (80%)             25 1/2in (90%)
 Katelyn- 13.8# (50%)         24 3/4in  (75%)

Colson- 4 Months old

Little Man is 4 months old already!  This momma has already cried once today thinking about how fast he is growing up.  He is so alert, cuddly and sweet.  This month he made his first long road trip to Amarillo.  He did great on the long ride.  I don't think we could have asked for him to be better.   He loves to watch Katelyn and Adelyn.  Adelyn has taken more interest in him this month.  He will sit next to him and say, "Hello" in a sweet voice over and over again.  Katelyn is always interested in him.  Her favorite game to play with him is peek-a-boo.  
I already posted this picture, but he loves the bumbo.  I think it gives him a whole new view of the world that he quite enjoys.  
I had to officially move him out of the cradle and into the crib.  He was turning himself sideways in the cradle which wasn't comfortable since he is too long.  He has now started rolling over and sleeping on his tummy, but I don't have a picture of that yet.  He just started within the last week.  He likes to sleep on his tummy and sleeps more soundly that way!  He goes to bed around 7, has a quick feed at 10 and 4, and is up for the day at 7.  He takes 3-4 naps depending on the day.  He goes to sleep by himself, but will still sleep in my arms when needed- which was nice while we were traveling and not on a schedule at all!  He rolls around all the time.  You can't just put him down on his playmate and expect him to stay there anymore.  He will roll all over the place and get frustrated when he cant roll any further!  He is a very content baby.  This week is VBS and he always gets complimented on how sweet he is and hardly fusses.  He weighs around 16-17 lbs, will find out for sure next week at his well-check appointment.  He wears mostly 6-9 month clothes, but some of those are too short for him!  
Happy 4 months little man!

Nanny Visit

Nanny came to visit at the end of May.  We were so excited to see her again.  Katelyn and Adelyn enjoyed many early morning pillow fights with her.  Colson enjoyed trying to spit-up or drool in her cast.  
We headed to San Antonio one day to see a drive thru safari park-

The petting zoo was a hit.
                           
 Here Adelyn was running around chasing the goat saying, "hey guys, stop guys!"
We are so thankful for Nanny coming to see us.  
These 2 played many games of skip-bo jr.

What do we love these days?

What do Katelyn and Adelyn love to play these days? DOCTOR!  Usually they take turns being doctor and patient, but this morning they gathered a table full of sick animals and are both busy at work making them feel better.  
What does Colson love these days? BUMBO!
