#betterlatethannever
How is this possible! You are becoming quite the charmer and are an absolute joy!
No check up this month, but I am guessing you are about 20lbs!



So what happened this month... let's see...
We enjoyed pumpkin picking and Halloween.


You are crawling EVERYWHERE! This momma can't keep up!

You are also pulling yourself up on furniture, your sister's toys, and your crib. We have had to lower your crib all the way to the bottom this month. You have mastered how to stand, but cry because you can not get down!


You also are always awake early in the morning and it is nearly impossible to get ready with you on the move. Mommy and Daddy wised up!

Wrestling with your sister has also already started.
#youwillcatchupsoon



These two absolutely adore you!

You have also learned how to patty cake/clap your hands!
#thanksgigi

You have become very interested in toys this month, and while the majority around here are pink...

you are ALL BOY!


I can't believe how big you are getting! This carseat may not last us as long with you!

So Walker totally looks like me right?!?

He still resembles his sister too!


Here are a few more randoms:
You have become a momma's boy really, really bad! When I walk out of the room, you cry/whine, and when you see me you reach your hands and whine until I get you!
#stinkerpot #secretlylovingit

Eating: nursing, still about 5 times a day. You like peaches, bananas, pears, and puffs. We tried green beans again and you actually threw up! AHH!

Sleeping: You usually take 2 naps during the day and consistently go down between 7:30-8pm. For the last week, you have been waking up 1-2 times and cry until we come get you! Hopefully this is short lived because momma is TIRED!

Diapers: Size 3

Clothes: some 9 months, but 12 months fit great too!

Milestones/Firsts: You started crawling on November 5, 2016! You can pull yourself up, and are extremely close to couch surfing. Lastly... how can I forget, you say "dada"... I say "momma" 24-7, but you don't care!

We love you more than you will ever know baby boy!

XOXO,
Christina

Disney/Beach Vaca Part 2

Tuesday night after dinner we headed back to my grandparent's condo! We wanted to go to the beach on Wednesday, but exhaustion and red tide kept us at the pool!
My pool boys!

At the beginning of summer we could barely get Brooke in the pool... Now she is off on her own!


Bubba was loving the pool too!

Thursday we decided to go to the beach. It was border line red tide, so we didn't get in the water.
We played...

and napped...

and enjoyed a little more sun...

They love their babies!

This was the best we got!

Friday we enjoyed the pool, had a yummy seafood dinner, and cuddled one last time before another 5:30am flight home!




We had so much fun! We may wait until future baby #3 is old enough to enjoy Disney again!

XOXO,
Christina

Disney/Beach Vaca Part 1

Well... We have been back from Disney for a couple weeks now, and it is about time I sit down to sort through all the pictures!


Holey Moley... You may want to grab your coffee and get comfy!

Vacation started about 3am because we had a 5:30am flight Saturday morning!

We were all SO EXCITED! B and Walk did AMAZING on the flight! Walker received his first flight wings! and here is B on her first flight when she was 8 weeks old!

Everyone was totally zonked from getting up so early... especially this one... so we ate dinner and hit the sack for our first day at DISNEY!

So we decided to tackle Disney Sunday and Monday, do Disney Springs Tuesday, then head to the beach for the rest of the week. 3 days at Disney was PLENTY for a 3yr old and 6 month old. This was the first time for Kevin, Brooke, and Walker to experience "the happiest place on earth". It did not disappoint!! Here it goes with Day 1...

First stop... scooter rental... it came in handy as I will explain later...

I mean, just seeing the castle made us all giddy!

#yesweareallwearingmickeyshirts

We walked around for a bit just taking it all in when we came to this dreaded Brooke's favorite ride. I mean seriously, she was in awe the entire time.
#wearestillsingingthisinoursleep

Here is the thing... we took total advantage of the scooter for a couple rides. They got us right on the ride, no questions asked!

Next stop, Ariel. You see, we came all the way to Disney World to see Ariel and Rapunzel. Anything for our 3 year old!


The five most important guys in my life!

#powernap

Gaston's cinnamon rolls were awesome!

I am not sure which of these two were excited about the scooter more. Walker drove it like he stole it!


We stopped for a show at the castle. Brooke is so into shows, I really wish Magic Kingdom had the sit down shows like the other parks...
#thereisalwaysnexttime

Belle is now one of Brooke's favorite princesses.

We hit up the Buzz Lightyear, Winnie the Pooh, and Carousel rides before lining up for the light show parade! This was the last night the light parade was being held at Disney World, so it was SO crowded! Thanks to my Disney experience app, my battery was drained long before the evening was over!

Here comes day #2!


Monday we woke up SUPER early because we had reservations at Be Our Guest (at the back of the park) at 9am...



For some reason I got a few pics of all the boys, but not the girls. We must of been running around like crazy while the boys popped a squat waiting for us to decide what was next!

Love him!

Disney day 2 was all about meeting princesses. It was the cutest thing to see Brooke so star struck. She told me that every princess was "absolutely beautiful", and most of them had blonde hair like her!
#princessesfordays #shewasinheaven





While B was having the time of her life, Walker was all like...
One day he will want his picture with all the pretty princesses too!

In between meeting princesses, we had TACOS for lunch!

and took a few pics with the castle while we were watching parades!



Love this girl so so much!

Since we did not buy the extra tickets for Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party, we left the park at 7pm!

We checked out of our hotel in the morning Tuesday and headed to Chef Mickey's for brunch. To say Brooke was terrified of the characters was an understatement! Walker loved them!



Kevin enjoyed making his mile high ice cream cone!

Love this family of mine!:)

We spent the rest of the day at Disney Springs before finishing dinner at the Rainforest Café!

Writing this post made me completely exhausted all over again, but it was more than worth it to see how much Brooke loved it! Swing back by later this week for part 2!

XOXO,

Christina
