Jump For Joy!!

We were gifted this awesome bounce house, how cool is that?!?!?! It was a very generous gift from some friends it wasn't a good fit at their home so they are letting us jump till we drop! I am sure it goes without saying the monkeys are having a blast!

Because what I really need is another ticker...

After much deliberation and contemplation I am gonna do it! I am posting my weight loss ticker! Yes, it is that big of deal for me. Thanks for asking. I have little less than a ton to drop and hoping to be skinny(er) by fall. I have done okay since having Hollis but need a bit of accountability. Hence posting my ticker for all to see. It was this or pay $12 a week to be publicly weighed at Weight Watchers. What can I say, I am cheap. No real secret fix here just plan on burning more calories than I take in. Not exactly revolutionary. I have joined THIS site to keep me honest(er) (yep, I know it isn't a word but thought it was funny. You are entitled to your opinion:)). Catch a glimpse of my sweet new ticker, hopefully it won't look the same way twice, please try not to look more than once a week :)!

Yet another reason to whip out your boob:)!

The hair cut heard around the world

Boo's long blond locks are all gone! Guice cut his own hair, it was so bad we had to cut it off! G and I both had a good long cry about the cut. I know we are in the minority but Josh and I loved his hair! It was so pretty! I do like his big boy cut but thinking we will let it grow back out!
Boo after he cut his own hair and I told him we would have to get it cut. He cut the side too!

Big man!









Hollis Timothy is 2 months!

Can't believe just two months ago I was begging for a csection:)! Hollister has made up for his LONG DIFFICULT labor, he is such an angel baby! So very very sweet! He loves to be held and cuddled and sang to and talked to and nursed a lot! He is rolling over to his back. He is spending a bit of time in his bumbo seat. His favorite toy is his activity gym! He lays under it for about 30 min.! Evergrace gets super interested in it as soon as H gets on it:)! The older kids love to hold him and help with him it is so sweet! EJ & G have showed zero jealously! E is great as long as she isn't tired, she gets a bit pinchy when she is sleepy. Hollis smiles and coo's a ton! LOVE IT! He nurses a ton, I honestly have no clue how many times a day or night:). He sleeps with me. He nurses so much its just easier. I have a ton of pumped breastmilk and give him a bottle every two days or so. It is such a relief to have a baby who will take one! We had his check up and he got shots. We have decided to vaccinate on the Dr. Sears schedule. He did not do well with them. So sad. He was so fussy the first day, the next day he just slept. I am thinking about delaying them all together until he is older.

Hollis has made up for his slow start for sure! He is weighing 14.15 lbs and is 261/2 in long! He is in 6 month clothes but some of those are too short. We haven't really settled on a name for sure. He gets called Hollis, Hollister, Hollis Timothy, and Baby:). I had a bit of name remorse, I really love his name but not sure what to call him. I am hoping it will work its self out:)!


We are enjoying this perfect addition to our family of 6!
