Little Mister's new look



Yes we finally did it! We cut off that beautiful hair! He trasformed from a toddler to a little boy in a matter of minutes. I actually went in for a little more than a trim but not with the intentions of cutting it all off. As she starting cutting I got a little more daring and kept having her do more until we ended up with this spikey look. He loves it and I am sure if has to feel so much better especially with the way it's really starting to heat up around here. It has taken us some getting used to for sure. I still don't think his daddy is used to it yet. Daddy loves it don't get me wrong, however he is having a hard time with the hair making Breckin look so much older. I honestly love it...I did not ever take the time to really take care for his long hair and b/c it was so fine it was always tangled and hard to manage. This is the main reason I went for it and I am so glad we did. Over all we are all happy with it.

I love my boys...

I guess I am back? Not really sure...Ha! Well for starters my baby is now 8 weeks old!! I can not believe that it has already been two months. Time flies by so fast. Now I didn't forget that from the first time around I just am reminded exactly how fast now. We have been pretty busy. We went to Amarillo for Easter and for Lindsay's wedding shower. While we were there Reece got sick and had to be put in the hospital. It was sure a bummer! We were there for 2 nights and 3 days and it was not fun! The worst part was seriously the IV that they had to put in his head b/c he was too dehydrated to get them in his hands or feet. I know it looked worse than it probably was but it's still not something a mother likes to see. He is doing much better now so for that we are grateful. The Lord really used this situation to his and our advantage so we are blessed for that. He put alot into perspective for the both of us through this.
I am extremely busy these days and not because I necessarily have a calendar full of plans it's just taking care of two boys is alot of work. Dane is now back at work so I am seeing what it's like to do a full day of housework along with taking care of a 3 year old and a 8 week old that pretty much cries all the time. He is really spoiled and wants to be held so usually if he is awake and is not being held he is crying. It can be hard to handle from time to time when you are really trying to do something. It's a little new to me because Breckin was a very content baby just to sit on the sofa in his boppy so it challenges me a little more but he is a better baby in other areas than Breckin was not so it all evens out. He is sleeping all night so hallelujah to that! I am so afraid to write that though....he has been sleeping all night since he was 6 1/2 weeks and the day I wrote it in his baby book that night he did not so I was afraid to jinx it!
All in all we are doing great and loving our boys. I am not letting a day go by without soaking him up. I missed out on so much of Breckin as a newborn because I struggled a little bit with the baby blues so this time I have made a point to not let the sun go down without sitting and just soaking up what he is and does each day. He has definitely made our family feel so complete. Now don't get me wrong I still think I would like a third, however IF that ever happens it will be a long time from now. So for now we are complete!
Here are a few updated pictures of the boys... Until next time....

This is my favorite!!!
