davis and the jumperoo

a day in the life of d man.

i never would have guessed the jumperoo would have been such a big hit with my kids but for some reason they have both have loved  it so much. after a day of jumping my little man falls fast asleep (see above).

enjoy.

finally found my camera! (after i had bought a new one but that's ok) so here are a few of the photos i found on it:

leave it to mimi to find the ugliest hat that presley loves so much. it took a while for her to not sleep with it. wonder what new things mimi will have when we go to visit next week for presley to fall in love with next:)

we are in nashville with davis in this pictures. he loved having one on one time with mommy and daddy.

rock star. what else can i say?

of course the covey university shirt got passed down to the dman. presley wore it at 10 months and he is wearing it at 5 months. momma's big boy!!

on to new things

we have had so much fun lately with brian working from home a little bit so i have (as you can see) taken full advantage of daddy time with the kids. i didn't think it was going to be too difficult going to the park with an infant and presley until i realized how hard it is to get pres to leave the park with out some sort of bribery/ assistance from a friend. thank you babe for coming to the park with us and helping me pull pres off the monkey bars. i never could have done it without you!

did i ever think presley would swing on the big kids swing, want to hang from the monkey bars or even touch a lobster and not be scared? of course! did i think it would happen before she turned 2? NO! 

my baby girl is becoming such a big kid so fast i just want her to slow down so i can enjoy her at this age. she is so fearless with any thing she tries ~ she is definitely brian's little girl:)

Davis is starting new things as well: rice cereal and oatmeal are his new favorite dinners. yea! i was worried that we were starting to feed him too early (4 1/2 months) but when your kid is following food from your hand into your mouth well, it's just time. 

not only is he eating he is also sitting up so much better now. i don't think he will roll over anytime soon but the dr says that's a weight thing not a milestone thing (as in he  is too fat to get his fat michelin tire leg over the next:) ha ha ha

hope you enjoy the new pics as much as we have. i love watching everyone grow and do new things. i love being able to stay home and watch them change every day. i feel so blessed!

covey time

a long, long time ago my camera use to be filled with pictures of my dogs and brian. especially ones with me and brian. now it seems that time is no more. our camera is only filled with pics of presley and davis. as much as i love capturing their moments i miss the photos of brian and i. one day we are going to look back and remember every moment of each photo and then look at one of us and say "dang, why do we look so old all of a sudden". so, for that not to happen here is one of brian and davis. not sure what is going on with brian's hair but it is a captured moment that i won't forget: davis in daddy's arms- NOT CRYING!:)

everyone loves to go shopping

here we are at the wiregrass mall in tampa. i love this mall b/c it is outdoors and in sunny florida that always mean we will have a good time. even davis enjoyed himself at the outside mall. i don't know what it is about pics of people when they are turned around but i just love them. brian and presley walking hand in hand down the sidewalk is so cute i just love it:)

some of my favorite people

papa and little man chillin on the sofa. how cute are they? just had to capture one of the precious moments that davis isn't crying or nursing. it's such a joy to see him in someone else's arms. 

i can't wait until he gets some more hair and i can spike it up like brian's. then they will really be two peas in  a pod.

here is presley eating lunch  the other day in her "terminator" sunglasses. don't ask why she is still in pajamas and it's lunch time. let's just say having 2 kids is a little bit more overwhelming than i had planned. anyway, she is too cool for her own good. i know she will look back on this photo and be like " mom, why were you taking pictures of me eating. that's so lame."

her favorite purse

Presley and her favorite new toy!

I was just wanting to share one of the funniest things that happened this week. Presley found her a purse. Now, you must understand that she has had this purse for months. It came with lipstick, keys, wallet, credit card and hair brush so i am not really sure why she decided that she could no longer leave the house with out it. Here we are on one of many walks where the pink purse could no longer be left behind.

kissing daddy goodbye with purse in hand. 

"bye, daddy see you later. love you. "

i love when she says this every time one of us leaves. even if we are just leaving the room for a moment. ha ha ha

ready to conquer the world with her pink purse in hand. even though i end up carrying it once we get half way around the block- along with her juice, davis, a blanket and my cell phone (just in case we run into trouble on the walk) i still don't mind.
