This Past Week...

So here we are a week later and I just realized its been awhile since I last blogged. That's mainly because I really only think about blogging when I have cute pictures or lots of down time. Well, as you can guess I have ZERO down time now and I don't take as many pictures anymore cause I rarely have an extra hand to take them with! Anyway, this past week has been pretty good. It started off with a trip to the doctors for Autumn. She weighed in at 7 lbs 11 oz and seems to be gaining weight perfectly. She was diagnosed with Acid Reflux and was given some meds to help with all the spiting up, thank goodness. She is also very colicky, so lots of crying due to her tummy issues, but is otherwise she is a very healthy little girl. We moved Autumn out of the bassinet in our room and into her crib in her own room and she is sleeping pretty well now. She wakes up about 1 to 2 times, eats and usually goes right back to sleep, Hallelujah! The weather has been great which means there have been lots of trips to the park in the mornings when I need to get Owen out of the house to burn off all of his energy. Other than that, not much has been going on around here, just making it through each day without trying to rip out all my hair. Just kidding, I wouldn't change my life for anything else in the world! Here are a few pictures I did manage to get from this past week.
Here is Owen riding his tricycle in the driveway the other night after a family walk. We just taught him how to push his legs on the pedals to make the bike go without us having to push him.
He rides it for about a minute and quickly realizes that it takes too much effort to pedal it. Lol. He had much more fun pushing it down the sidewalk. O' well we will get there. When Autumn isn't crying because she is hungry, has a dirty diaper or due to an upset tummy this is what she is up to.
What can I say the girl likes her beauty sleep! Please don't mind her crazy hair in this picture.

She insists on sleeping with her hands up at her face and sometimes covering her face. It cracks us up! She is so precious.

And here she is with her Daddy. She loves him to hold her like this. It's so funny cause this is the only way Owen let Daddy hold him too when he was a baby. I love how her little arms are wrapped around Brandon's. Awe, I love her!

And here are two pictures of our 1st ever family Picnic and Movie Night! Owen has become obsessed with the Chipmunks, the old cartoon ones, so we went and rented him the Chipmunk movie from the 90's for a family movie night. Well, we thought since we were having a movie night that it would be fun to eat dinner picnic style on the living room floor in our PJ's. As you can very well see, Chick-Fil-A was on the menu for the night. It was so much fun!
