Yesterday...

Yesterday was a good day! I got up went yard selling, visited with family, played with Ty, cleaned house and did laundry. I loved yesterday because I got to wake up to Ty smiling and talking his baby talk, I got to see my family and spend time yard selling, I got to visit my grandparents whom I absolutely enjoy spending time with, I got to hold Ty, I got to read to Ty, I got to rock him to sleep, I got to feed him baby food and rice, I got to clean and do laundry and lastly I got to feel like I accomplished a lot to help my family. I think most of all yesterday allowed me to be a mom and do the things that mom's do which I love!

I am incredibly blessed to have a good family and I love them so much! Yesterday one of my favorite things was Noah and Cassie coming home with not one but two gold fish. Noah was oh so cute carrying in his little bag of fish and telling us what he got. I will cherish that memory forever! Another favorite thing about yesterday was Ty and him reading with me. I read him Dr. Seus', "One fish, two fish, red fish, blue fish". I loved the way he looked at the pages and the baby talk he made while reading.

Life lately...





Lately life seems to be so crazy! I just don't know where all of my time goes and I feel like it is all passing way to quick. I feel like I am at work way more than I am at home and I especially miss spending time with little Ty. I live for Saturday's and Sunday's and I am a much happier person when those days come(who isn't). I haven't gotten all my laundry done in who knows how long, Kip has taken over the dishes because I feel like all of my time once home should be spent with my little guy before he goes to sleep and all those dishes can wait right. :) I think all those dirty dishes were starting to get to him and he finally decided to do them. I'm very thankful for Kip and Cassie because they are really helping me so much so that I have more time with Ty when I get home.

Kip is loving his new life and job. We started a new diet with a dietitian about a month ago and Kip is still sticking to it(I dropped it after the first week). It is very limiting to what you can eat but helps you become a healthier person and he seems to feel so much better. He loves working with send out cards and is a very big card sender now. If you know anyone that likes sending cards or invitations then send them here .

Ty is now 4 months old and he is oh so cute! I love how big he is getting but at the same time it all seems to be going way to fast. Ty is now rolling over, eating rice, drinking 6 oz of milk every feeding and throwing fits. He still doesn't laugh but I hope he will soon. I feel like I am missing him grow up since I am away at work a lot but I know he is in good hands with my mom. He stopped sleeping through the night about a week ago and now wakes up every 3 hours to eat(I am hoping this doesn't last). He is so smiley and slobbery right now. He is constantly putting everything in his mouth and I constantly have people asking me if I feed him or if he is getting teeth. I kindly respond that he isn't teething and that he is not hungry, he just does that all the time. He is so much fun and I love having him in our family!

Ty is starting to really recognize Noah and they are starting to have fun together. We love watching them interact with each other.

I am really learning to enjoy the time I do have with Ty and hope all you stay at home mom's know just how lucky you are. I am thankful to Kip and Cassie for helping so much around the house because it really feels overwhelming sometimes. I am constantly inspired by the video called, "my new life" on Nie Nie's blog. I think you all should check it out because as bad as you feel your life is there are always good things. On a side note I uploaded all of these fun pictures and decided I won't bore you with writing about them. They are pictures of what we've been up to the past month or so.
