The Boy is Getting BIG

Bryson is so alert now!

You all know the newborn stage, when all that babies do is eat, sleep, and cry. Well Bryson is getting out that stage!! Don't get me wrong, I love every stage they are in, but I feel they are so much more fun when their little personality starts to come out. Bryson is getting there, he is smiling all the time and he actually seems to respond to our voice. He is such a cutie and a joy to have in our family, he is so sweet.

He is trying to roll over, and he does a half way job about it. He is almost there.

He is now 4 months old

weights 12.5 pounds

23 inches long

He is such a blessing to our lives.

Here are a few pictures of the last few weeks

School is in Session

Maddie has started school, and we are still trying to get into the routine of things around here. I can't believe that she is Kindergarten, it seems like just yesterday she was born.

We love her school and her teacher, she is awesome! Maddie is super excited to be a "BIG" kid.

I did not realize how busy moms can be once their kids start school! I feel like I can barely hang on, and truth be told I don't know how I will do when we have 2 kids in school. I have lots of respect for mothers of multiple children in school.

Well I always wanted to be a really involved parent when it comes to school, but I think I'm in over my head. I have been helping out in the classroom 3 times a week for a 1/2 hour, which is not bad at all...but of course when they asked for help in the PTO, I was there in no time. I am now in the crafts committee for a Santa breakfast that the school puts together. I can't believe I just wrote Santa in a SEPTEMBER post! I will let you know if I handle it all or if I fail. I think, I can, I think, I can!

Here is to our big girl!
