Beautiful day for a blog!

It's raining cats and dogs here today and I'm baking cupcakes (and blogging in between batches!) for our church's annual festival called Rex Fest.

We've had a busy couple of weeks and I just can't find the time to blog much. Landon is changing all the time and is getting so big! A couple of weeks ago when his daddy picked him up from Nana's he recognized him and got all excited to see him. I'm jealous...he hasn't been as excited to see me! ha! He is starting to hold his head up better and is really becoming more and more alert every day and coos and talks all the time. I've tried to get it on video but I'm pretty sure he's video camera shy!

Last Saturday Landon and I went to visit Auntie Ashley and Burke for a playdate. I think Landon and Burke had a good time and so did the mommies! On Sunday we went to some friends of ours house for a cookout to celebrate baby Dax's baptism and his sister Brooke's 3rd birthday. We had a great time! We played Baggo and decided it was finally time for us to order our own Baggo set. So, on Tuesday I ordered it as an early Father's Day surprise for Jim...later I found out that he had ordered it the day before to surprise me! ha! Luckily I was able to cancel mine.

This week has been pretty laid back which is nice...especially since we're trying to get into a better routine. We did have dinner with our friends Ryan and Emily on Thursday night. We forgot to take pictures but we had a great time! Landon must have had an especially good time because he slept from the time we got home until we woke him up at 6:15 the next morning! I woke up in a panic since he didn't wake us up to eat! He's been sleeping through the night for a week or so now but never that late! We put him to bed between 8 and 9 most nights and he's usually up between 4 and 5am. We love that he's sleeping for that long a stretch...it has really helped us get caught up and has made going back to work a lot easier.

Here are some fun pictures from this week.

Landon and Burke...aren't they adorable?!

So over the photo shoot!


Landon wakes up happy every morning...and loves his Razorbacks!

This face could make anyone a morning person...even me!!!!

And now he's over it...I think he's thinking "listen mommy. no more photos. need bottle now!"

Dax and his sister, the Birthday Girl!

Landon and Dax...Landon was hungry and not in the mood for photos.


My friend Tina made this shirt...Landon loves it!

Meet me at the Sandbar! This shirt's for daddy! We love going to the lake even though we don't get to go much anymore.
Notice the Bumbo...he can't stay in it for long yet but he's holding his head up better so we thought we'd try!

Hey!
Landon is so cute!
I just got the highchair yesterday and haven't really used it yet. Harper really isn't big enough to need it quite yet but I wanted to go ahead and get (hoping we will be eating rice cereal soon). I do love the look of it and I think it will fit her really well (is supossed to fit until she's 5). I don't have a lot to compare it with but I'm happy so far!
