Capturing our adventures one photo at a time...
Friday! I’m so ready for the weekend! Hard to believe Spencer will be one month old on Sunday. Gotta gear up for the monthly photo shoots again! Should I do them in the same green chair that I did Maxwell’s in? or find another chair? hmmm…decisions decisions!
Today it’s time to clean off the ole iPhone. Here’s some snaps from the past 3.5 weeks…
Happy weekend everyone!!
Last week, Susan took Maxwell to Springville, AL for a day of fun. There is a farm up there that has a great pumkin patch around Halloween, but they do neat stuff there year round I think. All I know is Susan and Maxwell had a blast!
I still cannot believe Maxwell actually rode this horse!
Giddy up!
They took in a little entertainment…
Checked out some local goods for sale…
and had an overall great time!
Love their adventures!
also…bedhead!
also…dimple!
I love this little outfit that Spencer has with the firetruck on it. Such a pretty baby blue with such a cute fire engine! Perfect for my sweet little boy!
He wasn’t exactly giving me good facial expressions while snapping these pics – I think he was barely awake! I can report though that this kid definitely has at least one dimple on the right side. Both Robert and I have seen it! Hopefully we’ll start getting some serious smiles soon so we can see if he’s got a double dose or not!
I also can’t wait to see what color Spencer’s eyes end up. I know all babies start with blue eyes but I think Spencer’s are lighter than Maxwell’s ever were, even in the first few weeks. Maybe that means Spencer’s will stay blue? or maybe I’ll end up with two brown eyed baby boys! We’ll see!
See you tomorrow!
Yesterday was a lazy, rainy day and we just took the day off from everything. Maxwell didn’t have school because of Veteran’s Day and it was literally raining from sun up to sun down so we didn’t even try to go anywhere. I think this was honestly the first day since Spencer came home that we had absolutely nothing on the schedule – and it was nice!
You know the best way to spend days like that? In your pj’s of course! Maxwell spent the entire day in his pj’s, watched a lot of PBS (Bob the Builder is our current fave!), built a fort, played with trucks, ate as many graham crackers as he wanted, and loved on his baby brother. He even took a good nap!! Hooray! A great day indeed!
A little Sid the Science Kid…
and a fort full of stuffed animals…
some trucks…
and a graham cracker!
Spencer did a whole lot of this – which was especially good because he didn’t do a whole lot of that the night before! 🙂
When he wasn’t asleep, he spent the day just looking cute…
Some days you just need a day off!
What a BEAUTIFUL fall weekend we had here! It was sunny and just warm enough to play outside…but just chilly enough to make you believe it’s FALL! Robert worked on Saturday at the never ending job of picking up leaves and Maxwell had a blast playing in the leaf piles…
Just look at my handsome little guy looking so grown up!
What a smile!
In other news, we had some highs and lows on sleeping this weekend. Friday night was ROUGH – I think Maxwell woke up 5 times that night?! But Saturday night was GREAT. He only woke up once and went back to sleep after only a few minutes! Naps are still a struggle but we’ll get back to normal, I just know it. Thank you SO much to all those that reached out with encouragement. It honestly helps to know there are others that have gone through this.
Spencer slept GREAT Friday night going for a 5 hour and a 4 hour stretch. Saturday night he was up every 3 hours on the dot! Now I just need to get them both sleeping good on the same night! 🙂
Here’s to a fantastic week ahead!!
