Optimus Prime

Yesterday Tucker was, as usual pretending to be a super hero- this time it was Optimus Prime. I came upstairs to put him down for a nap and he said, "Optimus Prime does not take naps!" (in his very serious super hero voice) THis one is going to give me a run for my money

Reese, 2 months


I finally have my fat baby! :) Reese had her 2 month check today and she is 12 lbs, 12 oz and in the 90th percentile! She is 22 1/4 in long (50th) and pretty much perfect in all other areas. Of course, with the dr today came the dreaded shots :( She seems to be taking it all in stride, sleeping most of the day away. Her nights are getting better every week, averaging between 5-7 hour stretches at night between feedings. I am only having to get up once between the hours of 10 and 7, so that is great as far as I'm concerned.

Labor Day at the Pool





It was actually a little chilly, so the kids spent more time out of the pool than in it. At least we got to put Reese in a cute swimsuit! :)

Arkansas in August
















Here we go again...and now we have 3! Our first trip to visit family in Arkansas was a success! And by that I mean we made it there and back :) Actually, Reese did great! She was able to meet all the Smith's , the Hirscheiders, the Tribbles, and Grandmother for the first time. Having the new van made the drive much easier.

Boys trip to Branson




















Last month we went to Arkansas to introduce Reese to our family there. While there, the Smiths took Griffin and Tucker to Branson for an overnight trip to see the Noah show and to Silver Dollar City. They, of course, had a great time. The show was apparantaly amazing. I am jealous :) Although they were both 2 small for a few of the rides they wanted to ride (no surprise there), they had alot of fun! I can't believe how big they are getting.

More to come about our trip later...
