Grayson Ruth

Grayson is now crawling, my baby girl is growing up so fast. Last Monday (3/2), I looked over to check on Grayson and she was not in the spot where I had put her, she was on hands and knees heading slowly over to a toy she had her eyes on. Today, she is getting around even faster than last week. I felt something tugging on my pants leg in the kitchen, I was washing dishes, looked down and she had already made her way to me. She is also working on sitting up by herself, I know it will not be long and she will be sitting upright, instead of slightly to the side, propped up on one hand. The boys are getting a kick out of all the new things that Grayson is able to do, of course, Wyatt will catch her with one of his toys, run over to get it and tell her NO! NO!.
Grayson has been teething and around 4:00 everyday she requires my attention and anything I am doing gets put on hold until the next day usually. I have been trying to get her to eat cereal and baby food, but she has not wanted any of it. So, it has been difficult, because she is burning more calories and wants to nurse every hour and a half lately. But, I am not going to give up I will just keep trying to get her to eat some cereal or baby food.
She is always so happy and enjoys others company. She does also have quite the temper, when she is ready to eat, she lets you know that when she is hungry she wants it now not when I am ready. She stopped taking a pacifier and sucks on her first two fingers on her right hand and as soon as I finish nursing her at night she pops them right into her mouth to soothe her, in order to go to sleep. I wonder if she will be more of a mommies or daddies girl at this point. Of course, right now she is a mommies girl all the way.

What's Up!

We have been somewhat busy this past couple of weekends. We have been in the process of buying our second home, we have ordered our home and hope to be in it by April, I can not wait, we are so very cramped in the house we are renting. I am excited about moving in, we will be located in Lovington, NM, about 15 minutes from Hobbs. The house is 4 bedrooms, 2 baths, and will sit on 4 and 1/2 acres of land. We have a lot ahead of us, packing, moving, unpacking, planting, landscaping. My mom and sister, along with her children will be coming to visit and help us settle in, I am excited about it.

I kept Brody one Friday and had so much fun with both babies, and of course the boys too. We spent Valentines Day with Beverly and Doug. Linsey and Brody also joined in on the fun. As usual we hung out at Sharon and Bev's favorite eating place, DQ. The next weekend Beverly stayed with us in Hobbs, she came to watch the kids while Cody and I attended a Sweetheart's Banquet at church. Linsey and Brody arrived on Saturday, we went and had Brody and Grayson's pictures taken on Sunday.

Below are just a few pics and video of the kids.
