Green Night

  For St Patricks Day this year we did another green night. Red Night was such a hit, why not have a green night?!? The kids loved it! Our menu for dinner included Chicken with green basil pesto, green beans, and green mac and cheese....yes I said green. :) We also had green jello for dessert and green koolaid for drinks...yummo!  It was a fun night! Happy St Patrick's Day!

Brinkley's in her Big Girl Bed!

   Brinkley is not even 18 months old yet and we have already had to put her in a Toddler bed. This girl is our monkey child! She kept crawling out of her bed so we decided it might be safer to just take her out of the baby bed. I was very nervous about this..if you have ever met Brinkley you would know why...She isn't scared of anything and she seems to have figured out all the childproof locks and doorknob covers...I could just see her roaming our house at night and waking up to who knows what!

   The first night was rough. She kept getting out and after a little over an hour or so she stayed in it and fell asleep. Whew! Or so I thought...At around 2am I hear her on  the monitor crying and beating on her door. I went in there to put her back in her bed and went back to bed..As soon as I got all warm and comfy and ready to fall back asleep I hear her again...So I get back up with the same routine..This carried on for a couple of hours so I put her in bed with Jerron and I...So pretty much we did not sleep that night. It was a rough night!

 I am happy to say that day 2 she did perfectly! She is not getting out of her bed anymore..She stays in bed all night until I come get her out! I am so proud of her! Nap time is a little tricky though..She gets out of bed and plays in her room which I am fine with as long as she isn't screaming and she is content staying in there for the alloted time. Usually everyday when I go to check on her this is what I find after 15-20 minutes of quiet.  :)

Braydon's First T-ball Practice

      Yesterday was Braydon's first T-ball practice. He looked so cute in his T-ball gear!I cannot believe my sweet little boy is old enough to play T-ball. He is getting so big! It's hard to believe how fast time flies. Braydon is so pumped about T-ball and he keeps telling me all the people he wants to come see him play. He is even naming random people from church, a kid we saw in Target one time..Just the most random people...I had to explain to Braydon that the whole State of Alabama could not come watch. :) It's so funny how their little minds work. I love this age!

Wheel Day

    Braydon's school had Wheel day today at school. All the kids brought their bikes and helmets and rode in the school parking lot. Braydon thought this was the coolest thing ever!!! They sent home a calendar at the beginning of the month to let us know and Braydon has asked every morning since then if today was the day he could take his bike. I took this picture before we left for school.

Brinkley is 17 Months Old

Playdate with Kylie

   Around 6 months ago or we had some new neighbors move in a couple of houses down from us. They are super nice and have 2 girls close to Braydon's age..And since Braydon has met them we seem to have pladates with them atleast 4 to 5 times a week. They have so much fun together! Today it was really nice outside so we blew up the bounce house that the kids got for Christmas and let them all go to town. They were so worn out when they got done! That is one really good thing about the bounce house..After my kids have jumped in this thing its a sure thing for a great nap which makes me very very happy! :)

California

   We took the kids to San Diego for Aunt Lindsey and Uncle Jimmy's Wedding. The weather could not have been more gorgeous! It was definately a nice change from the cold. It apparently snowed here in B-ham while we were gone. I was really nervous about the airplane ride with the kids but I could not have asked for better kids. They were such angels! Brayon even got to meet the pilot and copilot in the cockpit on one of our flights and he thought that was super cool! Lindsey's wedding was beautiful and we had  good time! We definately have to go back there soon!
