Little D is 1 month old!

Dawson,

You are one month old! You have been with us for 2 weeks, and we love you to pieces! We are not sure how long we will be loving on you-but we pray that the Lord will bless your time with us, and that He will work in mighty ways for your family. For as long as he has you here, we will love on you with all we have.


You have spent most of the past 2 weeks sleeping. We found out you were born early-so that makes sense! You startle easily, unless you are swaddled. You love to be worn in the wrap, and HATE your carseat!


We had a checkup at the doctor last week. You were a little over 19 inches long, and weighed 7 lb 14 oz. You are wearing newborn diapers, and newborn clothes. Some of those are still a little baggy on you!


You are have been eating 2 oz every 2 hours-including throughout the night. Your mom let us know that you had been on Similac Sensitive-which was SO helpful for your little tummy. It has helped with your gas and spit up issues. It is still a struggle to burp you though! You always go right back to sleep during the night. You will sleep through anything-dog barking, girls yelling, doorbell....everything!

Speaking of the girls-they are in love with you! They have been such great helpers :)


Little Man, D, Little D, Deuce (thats what Ash calls you!)...

we love you and we are praying for the Lord to save you young. May you be a man after His own heart, and may we love you as He does!

Fireworks and Freedom!

On the Sunday before the 4th, we headed to Mark's parents house to celebrate Grampy& Uncle Paul's birthday, and to see Hannah, Mike and Hanna!


Ash talked Hannah into giving her an eagle tattoo!



The girls swam, and then we did poppers and sparklers! The girls had a blast!


Bailey was petrified at first, but warmed up as the night went on!





Little man slept away until he got too hot!






On the 4th, we were actually super lazy-except for doing some house projects. We grabbed dinner out, and then went and watched the amazing fireworks show that Richardson put on!

2nd half of June 2017

Lots of cuddles!


School, and playing :)



We had a fun girls day while Little D had his first visit!



And then we went to meet Gaga for lunch so she could meet the new addition!



More couch cuddles for mama


The biggest argument this month was over who got to hold D.


We got the front of our house a little facelift!



B had a tough morning at the arboretum (she has been adjusting to not being the baby), and so she rode around in the infant seat all am


We had fun playing in the splash pad!


And getting our faces painted!



Plus kindermusik!




These two obviously needed a rest time!


Lunch after church :)


A smile from Little man!!



We went to the Arboretum again with friends




Lady-stop taking my picture!!


Target with my gals (and a sleeping D)



While I took D to the doctor, a friend took these two sweet girls out to a special breakfast!


Little man had a great checkup!


And then this mama got a girls night out!


We went swimming a few times



Ash has been a huge helper pushing the stroller and helping around the house, and B has been doing chores like they are going out of style


She has also relaxed a little haha






The girls helped me give D a bath!



We picked our first veggie from the garden!!


Baby loving!
