Having Fun!

So I've given my blog a facelift. Like it? I had too much fun putting it all together.

In all honesty, it's given me something to do while The Strand Brothers put in my new AC/heating units. Pretty exciting, but not so easy on the pocketbook. Ouch! Not to mention, I...no...WE...all had to wake up extra early this morning. I know I have no right to complain since we normally wake up at 10 around here, but perhaps that gives me even more room to complain. We wake up at 10 around here!!! NOT 7:45!!!! K, got that out of my system.

So I finally found my memory cards and were in business!

Elijah 2 days ago :D

Hendrix 2 days ago asleep in my lap.

Elijah has been doing great as a big brother so far with very few minor incidents! I'm so proud of him! He loves, loves, LOVES is little brother! His favorite endearment is to stroke Hendrix's little cheek usually as he's sucking his own thumb.

Look familiar? I had to re-take this shot (above) because Elijah snuk a hand in there!
This is my favorite picture of my boys! It's my wallpaper on my phone. This was taken 3/14 when H was a mere 5 days old.


All my most favorite boys!!! Thumb? Check. Cheek petting? Check.
I never get tired of pictures of my gentlemen. Two guesses as to where Elijah's hand is...;)

I tell you what, I'll be so happy when I'm not under house arrest anymore. Ick. We went to our first public place outing Tuesday night. We enjoyed dinner out with our friends and neighbors, Ryan, Allie, and Audrey, at EZ's. Elijah did great!

Oh! You're probably wondering why I'd mention how great Elijah was since he's always the perfect picture of innocence and serenity. Ha! Well, folks, the terrible 2's have officially hit, and Oh My Goodness they're hell. If poor Ryan and I survive these terrible two blues, I think we'll throw a party! For reals! Let me know if you want to come.

They're out of order, but here are some more pics I wanted to post.

Here's Grandma Boston spending some quality time with her newest grandson.

Who says 4 weeks is too young to play with your big brother! It was so cute. Elijah crawled under the arches and laid down with Hendrix. He always wants to be right there if Hendrix is on the floor or within 2 feet of the floor!
Here's little H at 4 weeks.
Hendrix a little over a week. He found his thumb. Mmmm.

Elijah's first time to hold his new baby brother!

Peace out, ya'll!

I haven't forgotten you!

I've been looking for my camera so I could do normal pictures instead of always using my cell, and the good news is I've finally found it!! Now I just have to find the memory sticks and we're golden. I'd feel bad making tons of posts with all those annoying words without cute pictures like this one...
or this one...(awwww!)Big Brother Kisses

So, hopefully, we'll be more consistent very shortly!

Just to catch you up to date, Hendrix had his 2 week appointment on March 23rd and he got all A+'s!! He's more then regained his birth weight weighing in at 8 lbs. 12 oz. And he grew 2 inches!! He was 22 1/2 inches long. His head circumference was 37 cm. So we're off and running!
