Happy Memorial Day!

So today I have to say I am feeling very blessed I have two beautiful and healthy kids and a healthy and supportive husband. Today and latlely I find myself thinking about all the wives out there whose husbands are serving our country. A lot of people often say to me how do you do it having your husband travel ALL the time and seriously it is hard, but i am just grateful that he isn't in any danger and that I am able to call him anytime! My heart goes out there for all those wives who are missing there husbands for months at a time and who every night go to bed wondering if their husband is going to be ok and if they will see them again! I am also very grateful for those soldiers who have died for our safety and freedom! Happy Memorial Day and Thank You!!!

Auston, Maddox & Blake




Today the boys came over to play. Blake was so excited when I told him they were coming. He loves playing with them and they get a long so well. They had fun climbing, exploring, digging and just getting dirty...

Hanging Out...


Baylee 4 weeks
Blake 21 months
I can't believe how fast kids grow I feel like it was yesterday that Blake was this little and now he is huge! Blake loves being a big brother and Baylee loves when he is around. It sounds crazy, but she sleeps so much better when he is playing and being loud I just can't keep him away. I LOVE these two!

I LOVE having a Girl!



I can't believe Baylee will be 3 weeks tomorrow! The time is going too fast. She is finally starting to get some chub on her little body and her clothes are starting to fit a little better. Ann made this adorable onesie in preemie size and I just love it! You can check out her Etsy shop she has adorable things! Thanks Ann!

and looking out the window waiting for dad to come home (this an everyday occurance).

Blake's transition...

This picture actually explains a lot of what we have been doing, Oprah, half dressed, and me sitting on this chair and Blake starring at me
Grandma Lyons is here and it has been great she has been dealing with Blake and his "new" temper tantrums!
Whenever Baylee is around Blake has to be right there in her face literally...
And Blakes "I need attention face" which is also a new thing! I seriously love this little boy I was worried before I had Baylee on how would I love her as much as I do Blake, but it is amazing how instantly the love is there! I feel so blessed to have 2 amazing and healthy kids and an amazing husband and family who is so supportive and loving!

a few more of my sweet baby girl

How cute is this little flower that Ann made her! I can't believe how it looks like a normal size flower in her hair. If you saw it in person it is the tiniest thing I have ever seen! Thanks Ann!
I LOVE having a little girl she has the sweetest spirit and there is something so special about her that I can't explain, but I know she is here for a reason and she already adds so much to our little family.
So this picture with Dave's shoe is for my sister Ashley so she could see how little she is. I wish I would have done it earlier because she has grown, but I still just can't believe how small she is.
So the past 10 days have been great! Baylee so far is a great baby sleeping great eating great and always sooo content. Yesterday was the first day I could dress her because she has been spending all of her time in "the tanning bed" also known as the billirubin lights. Her jaundice levels got really high, but thankfully they have dropped! We love having Baylee in our family.
