Memorial Weekend and 3 weeks old!!!

We had a good memorial weekend!!! We decided to take Parker bowling. He was so excited and had such a good time. He wanted it to be his turn every time, but when Bryan or I would go up to bowl he would yell as loud as he could, " Go Mommy, Go Daddy"!! It was so cute. It thought it was so cool that he could lift the bowling ball all by himself. It was a little nerve racking for me, but he seemed to always make it to the line before he would almost drop it. He was so fun to watch and he had the time of his life. Here are a few pictures of our little bowler.






















After we went bowling, we let Parker play the games. He was in Heaven driving the race cars. He had such a good time he didn't want to leave. Here he is driving.




Also Maelie is now 3 weeks old (Well tomorrow). It is crazy how time fly's. She has been so much fun and a good little baby. She has had an upset stomach lately, so if anyone has any ideas to help me with that, I would love it. But other than that she is good and sleeps like a champ. Here are some cute pictures I took of her yesterday.
Doesn't she look so cute in this outfit, well she did until he had a major blow out while we were visiting my best friend Jenni who just had a baby (More to come of her sweet little one). We were at Alta View Hospital and of course I didn't have an extra outfit. It was a mess and clear up to her neck. Good thing my Best Friends little sister was holding her so I didn't get poop all over me!!! Just kidding. But the hospital gave me a onsie so I was okay. But holy cow was it gross and everywhere!!! It has been and adjustment to having 2 kids, but it has been a blast. I love my kids and I love that I get to spend my days with them!!!

One week old

I can't believe that Maelie is already 1 week old. Boy does time fly by. It just makes me realize how fast they grow up.She is such a calm baby, she only cries when she wants food or she has a poopie diaper. She is a pretty good sleeper also. I have to wake her up at night to feed her. That is a nice change since Parker has never been a good sleeper, but amazingly enough since she has been here he has slept through the night. So needless to say it has been a pretty good week with my 2 kids. Parker has been so good and loves his little sister. He is always asking to hold her and when she cries he always has to come and tell me. I love watching him with her. He always says mom she is so tiny, or look at her tiny hands or I just looking at her mom. He is such a sweet boy. Well here are some pictures of her first week.

Welcome Baby Maelie

Sorry it has taken me so long to post. It has been crazy around here. Baby Maelie was born Thursday May 8th at 7:52 a.m. She weighed in at 6lbs 13 oz and she was 20 3/4 inches long. She is a really good baby. The only problem we have with her is that she sleeps so much that she doesn't really like to eat. But we are working on that and hope we overcome that soon. Here are pictures of our big day.

Here I am right before I go into surgery!!!


Here I am on the operation table.




Here she is fresh out of the womb!!!




Parker holding his new little sister. I love this picture. He was such a proud big brother!!!



Our new little family





Isn't she so precious? We love her. I had a million pictures I could have put on here, but I will post some more another day. Hope you enjoy.

Last Weeks projects.

Last week we got a few more projects done in the back yard. We got some new concrete that looks awesome. It is so nice to have that and it makes the yard look so much better. We had a big weed pile on the side of our house and decided to get rid of it by pouring concrete. It is so nice now Parker has a big area to ride his bike and play. We also pored a concrete pad for a shed. It looks very nice and I am happy with it. Here are a few pictures of our concrete.




















Also this weekend, Bryan and my parents built Parker a new play set. I love it!!!! They did such a great job. Parker loves it too. It will be nice to be able to send the kiddies in the back yard to play. I will take more pictures of the kiddies playing on it another day. Here is the cool play set they built.




Well I am down to 2 more days until we have our little baby. We are excited. I will try and post some pictures as soon as I can. But until then enjoy!!!!
