random photos

here are some random pictures from the last few days
Have i mentioned what an ANGEL Hendrix is in the car?? Maybe not a big deal for most of you--but since Quinn was such a nightmare, I really appreciate how good he is!!

looking like a little man all ready for church

we've been having some issues with Quinn's nap lately. So she zonked out in the car on the way home. I just thought she looked so sweet. I never get to see her sleeping anymore since she ALWAYS wakes up when I go to check on her at night. The good thing is that she'll usually just tell us that she's 'still sleeping' and go back to sleep.


my parents always get my kids souvenirs whenever they go anywhere. Here are their latest t-shirts

he's laughing because grandma and grandpa think he's going to be a pirate??!!

Cute baby noises

Hendrix has started cooing and squealing..it's the cutest thing ever. Here's a little bit for you (it's the last 10 seconds or so) :)


Grandma Marcia made Quinn a pillow case for her beloved new pillow. Quinn was super excited to take a nap since she had the anticipation of sleeping not only on her pillow, but her new special pillow case. For some reason, she didn't want to fall asleep today so when I went in to get her she said to me: "I didn't close my eyes today." haha...where does she get these things?

Changing pads

I made these changing pads to sell at a craft fair. So if no one buys them....if you are having a baby soon, there's your gift. sorry to spoil the surprise :)



they are made from a slightly modified amy butler pattern. cotton on one side and terry cloth or minky on the other side.

Just some pics

Here are some cute pictures I took of the kids yesterday. Nothing too exciting, just cute kids
in this one Quinn actually ASKED me to take her picture. She's been uncooperative with the camera lately, so I granted her wishes :)



I was cleaning out her closet and she kept wanting to try different clothes on. this was the silly outfit she ended up with

just a funny face

Kids in pj's

Don't you love kids in pj's??

Quinn puts these socks on and calls them 'boots.'

My little man has been good at finding his hand lately. it's very cute :)

Too bad this picture is blurry...she is such a nut. These are her 'bugs' pajamas that grandma marcia made her

Happy Birthday Grandma Cheryl!

Happy BIrthday, Cheryl! hope you have a great day! Thanks for being such an awesome Grandma to our kids!!

tummy time

tummy time usually goes something like this:



Look at my big boy holding his head up!!! And in case you didn't notice, Quinn can too :)

and oh, notice all the long sleeve shirts on Hendrix? It's because before he was born when I shopped for him, I didn't think he'd be in 6 month stuff til the fall.

Hendrix with combed hair & Quinn being funny

I had to wash hendrix's hair at a weird time yesterday since he spit up in it. i combed it down just to see what it would look like...he has very fluffy hair--it gets lots of volume once it dries. you can see it starting to stand up in back. :)

Quinn has turned into a very funny girl. She keeps me laughing all day. Here are some funny things she says:
Quinn to daddy while she's laying on the floor with him: "daddy, he loves me!!"
Daddy: "He does love you, do you love him?"
Quinn: "umm...sometimes."

Quinn informed me last week that she was ready for a pillow in her crib. It has been hilarious to see her with it since we got one for her. We usually read books, then sing her a song or two while we rock her then put her down to sleep. Not only does she have certain songs that only mommy or only daddy can sing, but since we got the pillow she just says "put me down." BUT--she doesn't even sleep on it--when I check on her after a while she is sleeping on the other side of the crib.

She has started using funny adjectives, for instance: We'll finish a book and she'll say "That's my favorite book," or a certain song on Hendrix's mobile she always RUNS into his room to say "That's a wonderful song, mommy." Or she'll say "Thanks for the great dinner, mommy." It's very cute to see my little two-year-old expressing herself in such detail.

flowers

Quinn was being very sweet and bringing Hendrix some 'flowers.'

"A-A-A...

...ChOO!!"


He accumulated quite the pile of clover flowers!! What a good big sister :)

"but what am i supposed to do with these?"

"...smell em'"

Quinn being silly

Quinn was being very silly this evening. Here are some pictures.
yes...that is indeed a plastic bowl on her head

and yes..she is playing outside without pants on. In fact--someone was watching her for me this morning, and when I came home she was wearing a t-shirt with a pair of bloomers. The lady who was watching her told me that was what Quinn picked out...of course she did :)

who knows....

I had a request to see the whole playhouse


Here she is with her t-shirt and apron on. then we convinced her to put a jacket on. it was actually a little chilly outside--definitely too cold to not wear pants, but what do you do?

daddy taking a turn

A funny conversation I had with Quinn yesterday:
Me: Boy, do I have cute kids!
Quinn: I'm your favorite kid

Quinn and hendrix

Here are a couple of cute pictures I got of the kids today.
