Happy Birthday Rebecca
Happy Birthday Rebecca!! I can hardly believe this little cutie is 2!
We celebrated Thursday night with cake and presents. Rebecca loved her birthday cake!
We had everyone over on Saturday for a football birthday party. It was so much fun! It was great to have all of our family over to celebrate. Rebecca loved all the attention and all of her birthday presents.
Her she is with her great granny and baby doll. Rebecca is so excited to have her own baby and named her Baby Two.
Laura definitely had the best seat at the party.
My mom came for a visit the week of Rebecca's birthday. We loved having her!! She watched Laura so I could nap all day, basically threw Rebecca's party for me and filled my freezer up with food. She is the best!
My dad came out Thursday. We had the best time! He and Rebecca had so much fun!! I love how she can make him do whatever she wants. :)
My parents watched the girls so Matt and I could go out on a real date. It was luscious.
Baby Laura is doing great! She is such a sweet baby and really doesn't fuss much at all anymore. She is starting to go for one 5 hour stretch between feedings at night. My philosophy so far has been to not wake her up once it's dark outside so typically she eats at 7, 12, 3 and 6. I'm considering waking her up at 10 in hopes that her five hours of sleep would be later so I could get more rest. I've tried it a few times and it just seems like if I wake her up before she's ready she will not sleep 5 hours and if I feed her before she is ready she will spit up everywhere. We'll see, we'll see.
In other news, our basement flooded. Not really flooded, it just rained so much water came in through the back door and around the french drain. We replaced and wet carpet padding and had the carpets cleaned and now it's fine. We finally got a dehumidifier down there and it makes such a difference.
We also had a neighborhood cook out on Sunday and you can now take panoramic pictures with your iphone.
Supermodel Rebecca!

Happy Birthday Matt
Matt and Laura! Matt looks so funny to me wearing a sling. I used to think they were only for hippies...until I tried one. Instant sleep! Awesome.
A little Fresh Beat Band before the games started. Matt turned 32 on Sunday. He pretty much had to work the entire weekend. Such a bummer. Thankfully, we did have friends over to watch some college football for a little bit on Saturday. Matt will set the TV up outside. It's been really fun! I'm loving this fall weather and super excited for football season.
Rebecca! She is as cute as ever!! And still excited about baby Laura. The other day I was putting Laura in her carrier and Rebecca was right beside me. Laura was sort of asleep and spread her hand out and stretched her arm out all the way. Rebecca said "high five!" and bumped Laura's fist. So cute! Most of the time she isn't bothered by Laura fussing but every now and then she'll come over and scream, "Baby Laura, stop crying!" at the top of her lungs. It's doesn't really help.
Such a sweetie! Laura really doesn't fuss too much. Mostly when she gets tired. She has started smiling all the time and I love it! She'll wake up to eat about every three hours at night. Saturday night Matt held her while he was watching football and she went 6 hours between feedings. Crazy! He might have to start sitting up and holding her every weekend. :)
First bath! Laura loves the warm water.
Caleb and Lilly! The kids got to play when Cassidy brought supper one night this week. We love suppers from friends! It has really been great with Matt being so busy at work lately.
Happy Birthday, Matt! We love you!!
