Janie Belle is 4 months





Little Miss had her 4 month check up last Wednesday and she is healthy as can be weighing in at 11 pounds 6 ounces and 23 inches long! She has changed so much since her 3 month apointment! She's grabbing anything she can get her little hands on and squeals and smiles all the time! She loves to watch Braxton play and kicks her legs when ever she sees him!

Milestones for little B!!

This is Braxton helping Isaac put up his "new bed!" Brax decided last weeek that he was going to start climbing out of his crib; so on Sunday we went and got his new, big boy, bed. He thought is was so much fun helping to put it together.

After I fixed up the bed for him, he wanted to jump and play for about half an hour. Little did he know, he would be sleeping in it, that night, by himself!
Before bedtime, he got all his little blankets and stuffed animals from his crib and put them in his new bed! We read books for about 15 minutes, then it was night, night for little B. I was so nervous and had no idea what would happen after we left him alone. I won't tell the whole story, but there were many tears shed the first night in the "new bed." Once asleep, he slept all night and woke up the next morning at his usual time! He has been sleeping in his bed all week and Isaac and I are so, very proud of our little B! He is growing up so fast, everyday is like a new adventure for him (and me too!)!!

Braxton's 1st Football Game

Although Brax tailgated some last season, this was his first official game! He enjoyed the music and the band the most and loved the icee I bought him to endure the heat. War Eagle Brax!! Braxton hanging out with Uncle Joe at the tailgate!!

3 Months



Janie Belle had her 3 month check up Monday and she's healthy as can be. She is still a little, bitty girl weighing in at 10 pounds! She smiles a lot and loves to stare at my face and try to get my attention! Isn't she a doll?

Back from the Beach!!

We took a little vacation to Rosemary Beach with my good friend Katie Dumas. The weather was great and little B had the time of his life! There's nothing better than lots of sand, water and tractors and trucks to play with! He would just sit there forever and play and play! Braxton insisted on getting in the water and did not want any help! Luckily, there were absolutely no waves and so he was actually able to walk in and out and play in the ocean by himself with his swimmies on. Of course we were right there with him the whole time to watch his face light up with excitement! My mom also came for a couple of days and Isaac came Thursday night to have a little fun too! It was so nice to just enjoy the kids and play for a whole week and not have to do anything else!

First Smiles!




Janie Belle has been smiling now for a couple of weeks and I finally got it on camera! She is the absolute sweetest thing! She has begun to notice Braxton more and more and has even given him a few smiles!
