Not a whole lot of interesting stuff has been going on around here lately. My lack of blogging can be boiled down to two things: I have been extremely busy (obviously) and I ran out of room on my CF card which I never erase, and it took me a few weeks to get a new one... so... no pictures for a few weeks. There have been a couple of things to note, so here they are:
I have been trying to teach the babies how to hold their own bottles after observing a 4 month old do it at a party recently. Tony says that maybe if the babies were bigger than your average 2 month old, and if I didn't give them glass bottles full of 8oz of formula, I might have better luck. However, he underestimated my persistence. Now, Brenna can do it, which makes life so much easier!
This one, we will just say is a little stubborn. Or, as I call her, is a little princess.
Speaking of princesses, I broke down and got Baylee princess pajamas, which she loves. I detest the whole "princess" thing, but you have to pick your battles I suppose.
Sweet little baby feet. :)
Here is Aubrey being silly. (as usual)
In other news, how long do you think it takes for one family to outgrow a table? 6 months? Yep, that is about right. We were getting tired of trying to cram everyone into the very small breakfast table we bought when we moved here. Part of the problem was that the table was just too cheap and one of the chairs broke after only a couple of months. That ended the baby seats being a permanent fixture at the table, and they got moved around constantly. (which was very annoying.) Then of course, we found out that we would be adding an eighth person to the family soon who would not fit at the table at all. Next, another chair started to be extremely wobbly and that was the straw that broke the camel's back. We learned our lesson about buying cheap small tables. That is just not going to work around here anymore. So, (still being cheap) we found a great deal on this table on Craigslist. It is perfect. Much more sturdy and room for all of us plus 1 visitor! :) Well, until next summer when the new baby will need that seat. I can't believe that our breakfast table now seats 8 (the same # as our formal dining table!) It is what I always dreamed of, I just never imagined it would happen before I turned 30.

Livie made herself right at home at the new table. This is becoming her trademark. She is always kicking back with her feet up, usually in the stroller or in her carseat. It cracks me up.
This one never relaxes. She is always at attention, ready for the action.
They are just SO cute. They are coming alive with their own little personalities and quirks. They make our home so much fun.
Angel Baby. :) I think that I might switch them though, this one says Daddy's Angel and has the adorable little wings... the other says "Princess of Everything". I think that definitely fits Livie more.
A funny (scary?) picture of Baylee. It was way over exposed, but cute, and this is what became of it when I tried to fix it. Her hair looks like fire, it just cracks me up. She is definitely a little firecracker!
So, that is life around here. Just the same old stuff for the most part, we are very blessed. I am reminded of that many, many times per day! :)
