Sunday Scribbles~Because I Had 10 minutes of Quiet!

I'm thinking that my head may stop spinning any day now. The last two months have been crazy...no really. We have had a baby, a sickly two year old adjusting to baby, a new job offer, accepting new job offer, packing our Montgomery house and a move to Atlanta that began with a week of the whole family being sick while unpacking. All of this has gone on since February 11. I am beyond tired. However, in all of that chaos, we are having a blast here in Atlanta! I knew this was what we were supposed to be doing and I just continue to have peace about our decision to come, even in the midst of illness and fatigue. God's good like that :)


So here's an update on the kiddos just so that when my head does stop spinning I can look back and remember this sweet, chaotic time!





Sweet Chandler has been a complete angel since entering the world. She loves sleep, sleep and more sleep. She LOVES to snuggle and bounce with Mommy. She loves to be talked to and loves watching her silly big brother. She is sleeping wonderfully and after a few changes to formula and bottles, she's eating great, too. She started smiling at 5 weeks and hasn't stopped since. She is even beginning to let out a few giggles. I won't even attempt to explain how cute THAT is. She is perfect in every way :)

Harris. Harris, Harris, Harris. Where do I begin? This little ball of energy is a MESS. He just gets sillier and sillier. He is figuring out that he can say no to something and simply not do it OR do exactly what I've just told him not to. Welcome to Terrible Twos :) I have a hard time juggling wanting to put him in permanent time out or laughing at his sass. He is SO passionate about the things he doesn't like and more importantly, what he DOES like!
He has discovered the wonderful world of Disney movies. His favorites are:
Peter Pan (PeePie and his shawoah (shadow) are a hit around here) 
Cars (Cah (Lightning McQueen), Manny (Tow Mater)
Little Mermaid (mee-may or gool (girl) )

He is saying some really sweet things right now, too:
"Howol" What he says when he wants me to hold him
"Biiiiig House" Our new house in Atlanta ;)
"Bees" Every bug
"Geegert" Yogurt
"Chewies" Fruit chews



These kids just continue to keep me on my heels. I'm hoping that we will be completely settled in soon and life will be normal! I'm thankful for entertainment from my sweet kids during all the change the last two months. I'll say it again, God is GOOD!

The First Day of School, Butt-Shaped Fruit and The Crazy Train

How's Harris liking it?  I hear this question every single day. I love that people are interested/concerned about Harris and his opinio...
