My lovies...

I just love all these guys. They are what makes my world turn. I'm am so blessed to have each and every one of them in my life. Sometimes, it's a crazy life, but I wouldn't change it for the world. THEY are what I am thankful for this year. What in the world did I do to deserve all of them???

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!!

Enjoy some good food and your loved ones this year, you never know what each day may bring......

Lots going on....

We have had so much going on STILL...I am fighting to find the time for anything at this point. My little guy is having such a rough time. =( We started a new lactose free formula to see if it would help him. We used it for a week and to no avail, it did not. The second week was a lactose free and milk free formula, which did not help either. So, now we have moved on to a new formula, a very pricey formula, that is a hypoallergenic formula for babies with allergies and protein sensitivity. Its suppose to help with Colic also. Which I am convinced he has. There is a period in the morning, afternoon, and night where he is just unconsolable and arches his back constantly like he is in pain. Poor baby, nothing seems to help. I'm am keeping my fingers crossed that this one will do the trick. Why can't I just breastfeed my baby??? Isn't is suppose to be that easy?? He is also having problems going to the bathroom on a regular basis, so he gets prune juice twice a day. And he is still taking the Zantac and Prevacid for his reflux. I just CANNOT wait for him to outgrow this stage. I feel so horrible for him. Because of everything, he has been getting up every two hours at night, which makes for a long night for momma. Anyways, I do have so pictures to put up. But wanted to update on Deakon.

On the other hand, Keagan is doing amazing. She hasn't worn diapers during the day for about a week now. We are only wearing them when we go out for extended periods in public and at night time. She has got this potty training down for tee tee'ing. She is doing the other, but it SCARES the crap out of her everytime!! Its kind of funny! She has managed to only have a few accidents, which is expected. But I am so proud of how well she has done! I can't believe in only a month she is going to be 2! It just is sooooo hard to believe!

Farren is doing great as well! She got her report card and got all A's and B's! She had a great 6 weeks. Also, she made the basketball team!! Go Farren! And she should be finding out next week sometime which team she is on. She is super excited though, this is what she has been looking forward to all year! I am so excited about going to watch her play basketball in the same gym that I did at that age....how cool is that???

Hope everyone enjoys there Thanksgiving this year! I know we will!

Fun times...

Just a couple pictures of my two little guys over the last couple of weeks. A few random ones that I have just snapped here and there. They are doing pretty good. Sadly, I have had to stop breastfeeding, Deakon has a milk allergy. We tried a lactose free based formula and it seemed to help a little but he was still having some problems. So, we tried a lactose free and a milk free based formula, soy formula, and it seems to be helping alot more. Its just the hardest thing in the world to do. I only got to feed him for 4 months. The doctor said he will outgrow it, so I am contemplating pumping until he does. Its just the hardest thing to deal with emotionally. It makes you feel like you have done something wrong or failed in some way. I know I haven't, but it feels like it. =( Some good news, Farren made the basketball team!! Woot woot, Go Farren! We are soooooo very proud of her, and she is soooooo very excited!!! I can't wait to watch her play!! We are doing pretty good on the homefront, just still alot going on.

Always.

Anyways, on to some pic's of my little beauties....

Farren Layne....

Since Farren is somewhat older, I don't really get to post much about height, weight, milestones, etc...well, I could but I doubt she wants me too! So, I thought I would post some pictures of my little lady. She has started basketball tryouts and we are anxiously awaiting to see how she does. I'm so proud of the person she is becoming. She is really helping out around the house and loves Keagan to pieces! Even though she won't admit it! Keagan has been taking showers with Farren and LOVES it! Its crazy to think its been 12 years since she was born! But makes me sad to think how fast they've gone by! We love you little lady!

22 months....

What????? 22 months??? You know what that means....time to start planning a birthday party!! I absolutely CANNOT believe my little girl is going to be 2 years old already! It make me so sad but happy at the same time! She is at such a good age, I wish we could just freeze time. We are really working on the potty, and she is going a good 3 -4 times a day. Yay Keagan!! She is talking a storm too! She is too funny! Still loves her brother and giving him kisses and still loves her mickey!! She loves giving kisses good night and is taking naps in her big girl bed. We are slowly working on sleeping in her big girl bed so that bubba can have the crib. She loves Farren and loves to "help" her with her homework and cleaning her room. =) She is such a little ham and is growing up way toooo fast for mommy and daddy!! I can't believe she is almost two!!!!

3 months....

3 months?!?!?!?!? Where has my baby gone? Deakon is already a quarter of a year old...ha! Our little man is doing awesome! His spitting up has pretty much subsided with medicine and a paci. =) And he seems to be a much happier baby. He is cooing, a-gooing, and smiling up a storm. He loves his bumbo seat and his bouncer that rocks. He loves loves loves to be in motion and hates hates hates to be on his back. He is scooting!! We put him on the couch and he will scoot from one cushion to the next. Whoa! No more leaving this little guy laying around. He is a little porker...definitely eats more then my little girls did. We have started to give him a bottle at night time with a little cereal because he just doesn't seem like hes getting full. Boo....it makes me sad that I can't make enough. I am trying to pump to see if my supply will increase for him. It doesn't help the good ol' milk supply that I have been REALLY stressed for the last two weeks. He is still getting up two to three times a night. I keep telling myself only a few more months...its a small price to pay in the 100 years of life it will give him. =) Anyways, we are going next week to get his pics taken and I can't wait. My little guy is getting so big so fast. Ohhhh, and I personally think this little man looks just like his daddy!!!

Busy...

I will get caught up this week. Promise. Lots going on in our lives....
