The big 3 0!!!

Last Thursday Josh turned 30. When I asked him how he felt about this birthday he said "Im old!" I have heard that 30 is, by far, the hardest one! I guess its a good thing I have a few months. We celebrated my awesome husband on Friday night with friends and drinks. Let me tell you, I have totally won the lottery with this man!! I could go on, and on, and on about all the ways he rocks my world.
But you will just have to settle for a few sentimental pieces and a random photo shoot!!
God is so awesome! He gave me the most wonderful man out there. Seriously! I love that Josh can see the positive in everything. His attitude is one of love and total optimism about everything. Whether it is me, the kids, his friends, his family or strangers, Josh is so caring, sensitive and non judgemental that sometimes he makes me feel like a complete loser. Yep hes that awesome

I love this guys laid back personality. Rarely does he ever get upset and he is just so laid back about everything. (This balances my craziness out perfectly!) Two screaming kids and a mess of a house dont phase him. In fact, he just picks up the pieces and keeps on going without missing a step. He is non scheduled about anything and really does just enjoy each day of life. (A lesson I could really pick up on). I hope our children inherit his spontaneity and fly by the seat of your pants spirit!

Goofball and Giver. He is the jokster and life of the party. I seriously love his sense of humor and how he can crack a joke and just the perfect time in any situation. He is always willing to help others. Whether it with work around the house or his last dollar, he is a total giver. I love how he loves his family. We are his priority in life and we always know that we come first.

Ok I could go on and on......but Ill stop before you vomit:)
I am so lucky to call this man my husband and cant wait to celebrate the next 30 with you babe!!!

First Haircut

We surely did make it to 2 years and 7 months old before Kinsey got her first haircut. She has always had such long beautiful hair. It actually grew mostly in one length and other than being a little straggly on the ends, it was really healthy and pretty.
One night we were in the bath tub and as I was washing her hair I noticed that when it is wet it touches her butt crack. Yikes! It think thats a pretty clear sign something must be done!!
So I called my dear friend Audrey to do the honors. I didnt want much cut off, just make it healthy and cute.


She sat in the chair like a big girl and snacked on the gummies I brought for her. After it was finished she kept running her fingers through it and saying "Im pretty mommy." Audrey cut 3 inches off. So its still long but looks much healthier now.

6 months

Sweet little Logan turned 6 months on the 6th of this month. Its hard to believe he is half way to a first birthday. He has really changed over the last month and I feel like time is in overdrive! Summer is coming to an end......where did it go?!!!
Anyways, here is what Logan is up to:
  Size 6-9 month clothes
  Size 3 diapers
  Sitting up for short spurts at a time
  Really having a hard time taking naps in his carseat or anywhere for that matter
  Can grab on to toys and actually enjoys playing with them
  Still breastmilk only
  Eats big boy food most everyday (favorites are still bananas)
  Is totally entertained by big sissy
  Loves his mamma like crazy
  Loves the bath
  Still is swaddled to sleep at night
  Wakes up once to eat and for the most part is sleeping pretty soundly at night
  Naps terribly during the day
  Loves his binky
  Loves the jumper
  
Overall he loves to be held ALL the time and I am trying really hard to cherish this because before I know it he will be headed to school and I will be left in the dust crying. We love you like crazy Logan!!
