Why Coco isn't married..

2 things ya need to know..

1. Coco is my older sister.

2. She isn't married, and has a pretty good sense of humor about it. 

The convo:

B: "Coco, why aren't you married?''

Coco: "Good question Buddy."

 "But you need to get married....and fast! U need to get married Coco!"

 "I know buddy."

"I will marry you, Coco. We'll go to the temple and get married."

"That's the best offer I've had yet!"

B gets quiet for a minute

 "But why aren't you married Coco?"

 "Cuz sometimes it takes time to find the right guy."

" But I'm the right guy Coco! I'll marry you! I'm the right guy!"

"Oh, I can't marry Boston... I need to marry a guy Coco's size"

"But Coco!!! A guy Coco's size WON'T marry you!"

Me and Cole: Laugh uncontrollably

Bubbles from Coco

A few days ago it was gorgeous outside. Beautiful weather does NOT happen here in Houston so we took advantage. Mac napped, me and B played bubbles, then B ran around while I messed with my camera settings. 

 

I love B's face in this next pic!!

 

We had a fun day. I wish we had more beautiful days like this!

P.S. I am loving the new blogger! Why did I not know about this sooner?!

Mac's 4 month stats

The stats:

Height: 27.25 inches (98th percentile)

Weight: 20.12 lbs (ABOVE 99th percentile)

Head: 17" (83rd percentile)

The appointment: 

The nurse walks in and catches a glimpse of Mac, double checks her paper, then looks back at Mac again and says in a very unsure tone, "Is this his.....4 month appointment?" 

When the Dr. walks in she stops short and exclaims, "Wow, Mac!!"

 "How old is your baby?"

It's the question moms get asked on a daily basis.  I wish that I could wear a hidden camera around to capture people's expressions when they ask me. 

Eyes bulge, mouths drop open, a short silence followed by..

"Really?!" 

"Wow!"

"Big boy!"

 "Oh my!!!" 

"Are you sure?"- yes a girl actually asked me if I was sure how old my baby was!! 

Makes me laugh every time. We sure do love our big boy...and every one of his SIX arms rolls! 

Luv these eyes

Still Alive

I know, I know.. I'm way behind on blogging. My little guys are keeping me super busy! I promise an update soon, but here's a quick snapshot at our lives these days..

Rob still studies 24/7. His Spring Break was spent holed up in the office studying but we got to sneak in for little chats every few hours.

I try my best to keep Boston entertained these days. We made sushi the other day from rice krispie treats, swedish fish, fruit by the foots, and sprinkles. I think he liked it :)

I've spent a good portion of the last few months unpacking, washing, trying my darndest to get out B's old spit up stains(Oxyclean gel stick is the bomb btw!!), washing again, and organizing numerous amounts of clothes for Mac. I swear he goes up a size every few weeks. We are now in 12 month and a couple of 18 month clothes!!! (He's barely 4 months old!!)

Oreos are a new staple at our house. They are one of the few treats that don't have dairy in them so I can eat them!

Mac still hates his swing but I am determined to get him to like it! If Boston stands by him he'll sit in it for a bit giving me 5 mins to do the dishes :)

Mac got another haircut because the toupee grew back..

Mac loves his tummy time!

Boston always wants to join in too

The 1 and only picture (out of hundreds) where I have caught both boys smiling..

Boston loves to hold Mac's hand. It drives me nuts! Mac's hands are constantly in his mouth and so unless we're home where I know everything is disinfected and clean anything Boston touches goes into Mac's mouth. I can't tell you how many sanitizing wipes we've used and convos we've had about only touching Mac's hands right after his are washed

Mac is sooooo patient with B and his constant poking, hugging, and tugging.

Does he not seem huge for only being 4 months old?!
