Exersaucer


Late one afternoon I was working in Stephens room putting away clothes that didn't fit anymore.  Stephen was playing in the game room and Avery was starting to get fussy, so I got out the exersaucer for him to sit in.  I had to put a blanket around him, but he loved it.

These pictures aren't the best, but I had to document his first time in the exercauser.

He loved it for about 5 minutes and then he was done!

Playing in Backyard


I put Avery down for a nap one morning and he actually slept in his crib!  A miracle!!  Stephen and I played in the backyard and it was so nice to be able to devote one on one time to him.

Our trampoline is in bad shape!!

I kept checking the monitor in disbelief that Avery was still sleeping.

Blessed


I took some pictures of the boys one afternoon while we were playing outside and then I took some of Avery inside and they turned out so good!  I rarely get out my big camera lately, but I am always happy when I do because I capture some great pictures of my beautiful boys!

I am so blessed to be a Mommy to these two boys!  I get overwhelmed just thinking about how God blessed us with two healthy, beautiful, funny, sweet, and happy little boys.

I love these pictures of Stephen.  It is hard to get a picture of him with a genuine smile and looking at my camera, so I was so happy when I saw these!

I took these on Avery's 4 month birthday.  I love this sweet smile!

Stephen loves his skateboard he got for Christmas.  He is still too young to ride it, but he has fun messing around with it.

Avery hung out in the carrier while Stephen played.

Since I got so many great pictures, I decided to try for a picture of the boys together.  It wasn't happening!

Stephen was trying to console Avery with a hug (he is seriously the sweetest big brother)!  Also note, my hand was there for Avery's safety, because after a hug Stephen has been known to just let go abruptly.
