Fun Fun Fun/ Doc Band Update

The girls and I have been having lots of FUN with friends lately!!  A couple weeks ago, we met Kim and Natalie for lunch and oh my gooooodnesss– the girls were in love!!  It was so much fun.  Both Kim and Natalie have the SWEETEST kids (I taught their boys)… so I will be getting parenting advice from them in the future! :)  Can’t wait for another lunch date!  Oh and I haven’t forgotten about your babysitting offer.  hee hee :)

Miss Natalie and Riley (she was a little sleepy :) )

Miss Kim with Reese

 

Last week we went to a baby shower for my friend Shari’s 2nd baby boy and had so much FUN (even though R and R were soooo tired)!  We had fun posing the babies together. 

Little cuties!

 Oh, Riley! ha! 

On April 28th, Reese and Riley’s “cousin” (practically!) was born!!!!  We’re SO GLAD Drew is finally here!!!  Here is our “family” (practically) picture! FUN!

 

 Proud “Aunt” Amy!

We see Aunt Leah and Cousin Casen every week!  Casen is quite the entertainer… his newest game is to take one of the girl’s pappy (blanket) and put it over his head and play peek-a-boo with them!  They crack up and so does he– it is the SWEETEST!!  Then he will put it on his head and walk around and giggle– he knows he’s funny!  

Silly Casen!  It’s so funny how kids can have a sense of humor even when they’re so little!

Doc Band Update:

Before our appointment, I was SURE to put BOWS on those heads one more time (the traditional way… don’t worry I’ll find a way for them to wear bows with the band on!).  I had to take a pic…

 

Reese: “Are you SURE we won’t have to wear these things for a while??  (please, please?)”

Riley, “WHAT?!  No head band bows?! I can’t believe this…”

 

The appointment went well!  The girls were so sleepy (it was nap time) they could care less that they were putting that thing on their heads. ha!  At one point Reese reached up and patted her band and Riley who loves to scratch and feel textures, scratched the velcro for half a second, but that was it.  AFter a couple adjustments, we left with our COOL helmets sound asleep in the car seats!!  Once home, the girls woke up for diaper changes and FOOD.  When Reese was getting her diaper changed on the changing pad (on the dresser), she looked at herself in the mirror and then had to do a “double take” and smiled really big.  I guess she thought she looked funny.  Every 3 hours I’m taking them off to let the little red/pink spots fade away then putting them back on.  We’re easing them into it so there heads will get used to it.  No major redness or anything yet!  They are happy as can be and keep grabbing at each others helmets- they’re cracking me up.  I’m going to decorate them soon… I ordered something to help decorate and I haven’t gotten it yet!  Will post decorated pics soon…  Here are my cuties oblivious to the fact that there’s a plastic/foam thing on their heads- ha!  What a BLESSING!!

Riley: “Helmet?  What helmet?  What are you talking about?”

Reese: “That’s right, I’m cool: I’ve got sideburns now.”

 

Round heads… here we come!

    Oh my goodness! They are getting so big. I almost can’t tell them apart anymore in the pictures cause Riley is catching up to Reese! They are just precious and the helmets look great–especially with their adorable grins. We have got to get together–let me know when you have some time!

    You need to glue some velcro onto the band. Then you can velcro different bows on each day!
