arf-arf

this is the outfit that brandon came home from the hospital in. it's so amazing how much he's filled out in the last six weeks. it's amazing that six weeks ago he was such a sick little boy and now he's perfectly healthy. praise god!!!

i normally refuse to buy the typical boyish themed clothes...but this matched the carseat, diaper bag, boppy pillow, crib bedding, etc. so perfectly. i know it sounds retarded that i'm that crazy about it, but i am going to put it in a shadow box in his room and it needs to match!

six weeks postpartum. time to get back in shape! i joined weight watchers this morning. i'm excited to be cleared to workout with my trainer too! {hopefully} sheila will have me back in shape in no time. thankful that thanksgiving and christmas are behind us so i don't have any holidays to sabotage me! i am tempted to post my picture on here, but i want you to come back and read the blog some more! ha ha. i actually saw another girl on a blog post her measurements, and i wonder if why she lost so much weight is because people were keeping up with her. i'm not sure if my hormones could handle all that pressure right now! anyway, i have 20 pounds until my ultimate goal weight (14 pounds from my actual weight when i found out i was pregnant). bring on the planks sheila!!!

and here are some more pictures of the kids together. and while i did not have to force them to take pictures with their baby brother, they were enticed a little by some homemade popcorn! ha ha.

these sweet little hands will protect you as you grow up. they love you so much!

"hey little brother! look mommy, he's looking at me!!!" {lauren}

"my brother likes it when i kiss him on the head." {jared}

my sweet baby girl is growing up. she loves him so much!

if you start sticking out your tongue and making silly faces, mommy will stop taking pictures of us! okay, okay...i get the picture!
