A couple of pics....

Just thought i would share a couple of pics my cousin did for me of the little guys. She used Keagan as a model for some outfits she had and managed to squeeze a picture in of brother too. They are so sweet, I love my blue eyed babies! Thanks Jennifer for taking the pics!

We love having an ice cream truck!!!

Well, everyone that is except for Deakon, since our Ice Cream Truck comes around at like 8:45-9 at night. Oh well, he'll be awake one of these days and will get his first ice cream. As soon as Keagan hears the music she starts saying "Ice cream, come on, lets go!" and grabbing her daddys hand to go outside. Its too cute!

Updates

I need to update with Deakons 11 month, and Keagan's 2 year and 6 month post. We have been so busy. I am making three more cakes this weekend. And Keagan got bit by a spider in her ear. It was nasty and draining, so I took her to the doctor to confirm if we needed to do anything else. They gave us some steriod cream and an antibiotic cream. Poor stinker. Bubba, has ANOTHER flippin ear infection, double at that. It hasn't even been 10 days since we got rid of the last double ear infection. WHAT THE HELL?? Apparently, you have to have so many within a certain period of time before the ENT will even see you though. This is our 4th since march. Not considering that one lasted a month and took 3 antibiotics to get rid of. So, doctor said one more this YEAR, before 2011 and we are going to the ENT for tubes. We can't make it 10 days, so i'm pretty sure we won't make it 6 months. Bah! Anyways, I'll get the other updates up as soon as I can.

On a side note, just wanted everyone to send a little "Happy Birthday" up to Kyle Brent Lowe. Today would have been his 29th birthday. Needless to say, hubby is having a rough day too. My poor babies, all of them. =(

Hurricane Harbor...

This past Sunday, we decided for fathers day that we would make a trip to hurricane harbor. This was Keagans first trip here, we decided to leave Deakon at my moms since he is still a bit to young to really enjoy it there. Farren, her friends, Haley, and Stephanie went with us as well. We ended up having SO. MUCH. FUN!!!! Keagan was the best kid all day long. She played and played and played. She rode the slides in kiddy land, but wanted to ride the big ones. She is still a little to small for the big rides. Only a couple more inches until she can do some. If she couldn't ride, she still was happy to watch everyone else that did. We were pretty much non stop all day long. The big girls loved it to, we all took turns riding rides, and we all spent a good part of the day on slides and kiddieland. We decided we should get season passes so we can go more often. Keagan was so tuckered, she fell asleep at 7 when we left and did not get up until 9:45 the next morning! I was very glad to see my little man when we picked him up. I'm just not used to being away from him for that long. I love love love fun family days like this. And having an awesome daddy to my kids to celebrate fathers day with!

What momma did this weekend...

I have been meaning to update, I promise I have. I have been getting occassional ones in here. But my days, evenings, and weekends seem to be so packed up right now. I have been thinking of going back to work, and have been to 3 interviews in the last two weeks for that. Also, Deakon has been sick for almost a month now. Ear infection, ear infection that didn't go away, finally it did, and then tonsalitis (sp?). Anyway, I THINK he is finally on the mend, he still has a small rash, but is in a much better mood and no temp. My neice and nephew came up and stayed with us for a few days, and we have finally transitioned Keagan to the BIG GIRL potty, no more little potty and having to empty it every time she goes. Thank god for that, now we just have to get her a stool she can use to get up there by herself. Also, I've been making cakes for birthdays and baby showers. All in all, momma has been busy. In return, my blog has been neglected. Anywho, here are the cakes I did this weekend. Hope everyone is doing well!!

I just love love love doing this!

2 feet baby....

As of Sunday the 13th, our little man is on 2 feet! He has started walking! How cool is that? It makes me sad and happy all at the same time. Happy because it is awesome, an amazing moment in our lives. And sad because, well, he is my last baby, and that kind of puts him out of the baby stage. He has been taking one step here and there, but sunday he took off with 3 or 4. He has been doing it several times a day since. And today daddy counted out 14, I think he likes this mobility!! What a big boy we have!!!

Summer is here....

I was cleaning up dinner the other night and Chris went out front to turn the water on for our flower beds and both of the little kiddos followed behind. I realized 10 minutes had gone by and they had not come back inside. I walked outside to find Keagan playing in the water while it was watering the flower beds.....in her jambos. Daddy and Deakon were eating grass and watching, well Baby D was eating grass at least. Such a good daddy. =)

Little munchkins, I love them so much. To bad I couldn't get Farren off the computer long enough to come play. She is very much so enjoying being ungrounded. =)

Happy 9 months Baby D!

It's so hard to think that my little baby, my last little guy, is already 9 months. Its hard to think that its time to start planning for his first birthday party. My oh my, how quickly they grow up. I've heard it before, but I will gladly say it again. They grow up so fast. Deakon is 9 months and on the move! He is everywhere. I mean everywhere. He is pulling up on stuff and cruising around it. He is pushing sisters old toy around that we just got out for him a couple of weeks ago. I cannot believe how quickly he went from sitting by himself to pulling to a standing position alone. He will walk with daddys help, or on the toy, but I'm certain its only a matter of time before its on his own. Do babies who have older siblings close in age do things faster becuase they see their brother\sister doing things? I'm coming to the conclusion this is the case. He is constantly following Keagan around, and as I look back on records from Farren and Keagan, he is doing things far ahead of them. We took him for his 9 month check up and he is weighing in at 18 pounds and 12 ounces! What a little chunker!! I didn't get his height because the nurse forgot to tell me. She did say he is "Healthy as a horse!". Thats good to know. He is wearing some 6-9 months clothing, and some 9-12 months clothing. Size 3 diaper now, just upgrading this last week. He is eating 3 meals a day, with snacks in between, and eats about 4-5 7 ounce bottles a day. He is taking two naps a day. One in the morning, and one in the afternoon. He goes to sleep around 8, usually wakes for a bottle around 4, then sleeps until anywhere between 7-8. He has said "mama" a handful of times, but consistently enough for me to count it as one of his words. His favorite baby talk right now is ga-ga-ga-ga, no clue what it is but repeats it all day, every day. He loves his big sister and following her around. He gets the biggest smile on his face when he sees her in the mornings. He loves his daddy very much too, and will follow him and stare at him until daddy gives him some good attention and play time. To cute! Anyway, I can't wait to see what the next couple of months holds for Deakon and what milestones he will hit.

We love you little Bubba!!!!

And by far my favorite picture of my two guys......

Aren't they just too stinking cute!!!

Like Father Like Son!!!

Tea for two!!

Tea Bathtime for two!

I just absolutely love the fact that my kids can bathe together. Besides the fact that Farren will not let me take pictures of her and Keagan showering together, I AM able to take them of Keagan and Deakon. How fun! They just absolutely love the water and love bathing together!

Birthday party fun....

This weekend we had the opportunity to go to Sophie's (Nathan and Betty's little girl) 1st birthday party! It was so much fun! This place was perfect for children from Deakons age up to 10 years! They had such a variety of things for the kids to do. Keagan actually cried when it was time to go. Farren and her two cousins, Heathers two boys, decided they didn't want to go to a 'baby' party, so they stayed at our house and played video games the whole time.

I can't believe that Sophie is already 1! Just makes me realize that Deakon's 1st birthday isn't far away! Were has my little guy gone?? He isn't even 9 months yet, and he is pulling up on everything and cruising around. He is trying to let go and walk already. He is so determined, he will crawl up on our couch and try to turn in the open and walk. As soon as he falls, he does it all over again. He is so DETERMINED, just like his mama!! I can't believe it though, he is doing things so much faster then my girls did. Anyway, even he enjoyed this place. So, good job Betty and Nathan on choosing a birthday place! We had so much fun. And happy birthday to little Sophie! She was so stinkin cute in her princess outfit!
