Titles are hard

Blue eyed babes. 

Can't help but have some little photoshoots with this girl when we're home together.  She's starting to make some fun facial expressions.

A video from the park the other day.  Daniel was doing so well at dribbling his soccer ball..until he wasn't. 

And our homemade drum set was pretty fun to play with yesterday.  If ya can't beat 'em, join 'em!

Thompson Road

Heidi meets Gerald the Giraffe.

A Friday night stroll on Thompson Road with a stop to pet Oprah's horses.

This goofball decided to take the little rocks off the road and place them on the rock wall..in front of Oprah's house. 

This girl, who was all smiles before I got the camera out, showing off this super cute dress we were gifted.

Random photos

Just some pictures from the past couple days.

Checking out Tom's new office!

Helping Heidi with tummy time.

Heidi snoozing in the carport while Daniel and I played outside.

Milestone!

Like brother, like sister. 

And a bright eyed Adelaide in a cute dress.  P. S.  We're trying all kinds of names on for size..Heidi, Adelaide..Addy.  Feel free to take your pick when talking about her.  Someday we (or she) will decide what suits her best.

We hit a milestone yesterday - first real spit up!  Yahoo!

Reunited after a day at daycare. 

Enjoying a special treat while Tom got a haircut.

Post Bath Smiles

We're starting to see more and more smiles!  Maybe she doesn't hate us after all.

I'd apologize for posting so many similar pictures but..well..I'm not sorry 😊.

Bedtime

Haven't had much time to update cause Grandma and Grandpa are here (also my computer is broken so I have to use my phone) but here are two photos I just have to share.

Tom left for a work trip tonight and the grandfolks aren't staying here so it was just me with both kids for bedtime.  At Daniel's initiation, they held hands the entire time we read.

And my heart melted.

Cuddley kids

Post nurse sleepy smile. 

Let's not pretend every moment is this sweet, but you gotta take advantage when this kind of thing happens.

Rhyming

Me: Adelaide-a-loo. I love you.
Me: Adelaide-a-laniel. I love
D: Daniel!
Me: Adelaide-a-lada. I love
D: Dada!
D: Adelaide-a-baby sister.  I love pillows!


Trigger warning: vegetarians beware

While driving and pointing out animals we see.

T: I see goats.
D: yeah! Goats!
Me: I see bulls.
D: yeah! Cows!
D: I see fried chicken! Right there..fried chickens!

That's a kid with Texas values right there haha.

Sweet Summertime

Heidi has got summer relaxation down pat.

I mean, look at this pose!

One Month

...and just like that, Heidi is one month old!  Time flies when you're taking care of a newborn while chasing a toddler having fun!  Kidding, we are having fun.  We just also drink a lot of coffee.

Things she likes: eating (obviously), being carried on your shoulder, clean diapers

Things she doesn't like: having whoever is holding her sit down, red lights, pacifiers

I'm sure these month stickers aren't cool anymore (and that's why they were on sale), but I figured I'd jump on this old bandwagon and try to do monthly photoshoots.  It'll be a miracle if I don't lose the stickers.

Heidi was not feeling it at one point.  The caption of this next one pretty much writes itself.

Later we had a post-nurse sleepy photoshoot.

She's getting chunky.  She's about 10.5 pounds already.

Heidi's big accomplishment of the day was giving us her first real smiles!  It happened about four times.  It was hard to capture on camera since we were busy cheering and smiling back.  I realize these pictures are NOT the most attractive and don't capture what her first smiles truly looked like, but we love them anyway!

More open eyed smiley photos coming soon I hope!
