Star Wars Celebration

My guys LOVE Star Wars! This year they had the Star Wars Celebration here in Orlando at the Convention Center. It was one of the fun things Jared and Andon did while we were on vacation. Adelyn and I decided to sit this one out. :) Jared took lots of pics on his phone for me so here are a few of my fav's.
Andon with a Lego C3PO and R2D2.

Him and Chewy.


Andon (with glowing eyes) and the REAL Darth Vader. At least that's what he thought. :)




I am so glad Jared took him. This is something Andon will never forget!!

Family Vacation

2 Weeks ago we went on a family vacation!! It was such a nice time relaxing and hanging out together. We decided to stay close to home being that we do live in Orlando! :) The hotel was so nice and had the greatest pool, lazy river and water slide.
These pics were taken from our room.


Daddy and Andon floating down the lazy river.


This is pretty much all Andon wanted to do. Every time we went down the lazy river Andon met a new friend! The first day it was a boy named Sam from England the next day another boy named Nick and the next day a girl from Canada named Juwanie. She was in her early teens and just adorable! My little social guy can make friends anywhere. :)
Here's my little bathing beauty. She was such a good girl on vacation!

One thing I realized, you have to take A LOT of stuff when vacationing with a baby! It's been a few years since i've had to do that and totally forgot how much you need!


One of the days we drove to Deleon Springs and ate at the Old Spanish Sugarmill Restaurant. It is a really fun restaurant where you cook your own pancakes and eggs on your table. But while your waiting for a table to open you can swim in the springs. It was so fun!! Here are some pics from our day at the springs.



This little "staycation" was just what we needed before getting back in to the swing of things. I have SO much more to blog about and so many more fun pics to post. But one will have to do for tonight. :)

4 Months

Today our sweet one is 4 months old. Where has the time gone!? Wow, it truly is amazing how fast time goes by. She has changed so much already!

Here's the new stuff...
She LOVES her play mat on the floor! Now she can reach all those fun hanging toys. I have it in her room which is viewable from the laundry room. So whenever I am doing laundry (which feels like every day now) I lay her there to play for a while. So cute!


She rolls from her front to her back pretty easily and has only rolled from her back to her front once. That's ok with mama, we'll keep her still for a little longer!

We think she is teething for a couple of reasons.
~ she drools all over every outfit we put her in
~ she puts everything in her mouth

~ she was rubbing her ears for a few days so I took her to the Dr. to see if she had an ear infection and everything was just fine. the Dr. said it could just be referred pain from teething. we'll see. :)

She weighs 15.3 pounds now and is 24 and 1/2 inches long! She is one healthy little girl and we LOVE it! I looked back at Andon's baby book and at this age he was exactly 1 pound lighter and 1 inch longer.

She eats every 3 to 4 hours during the day and every 5 to 6 hours during the night. Hasn't slept through the night yet but I have a feeling it's gonna be soon.

Here she is with her big bear.


Adelyn, you are growing so quickly. I am not taking a minute of it for granted. I love you so much precious girl.
