Farewell to the Fossums..

We had a farewell party Sunday in honor of Jenna, Clancy, & Tyce moving to Austin this week. We will really miss them & they have become good friends of ours. Our boys just love playing together.  But, we are thrilled to take road trips to Austin now!

There were 14 adults and 6 kids & we had a blast!

The Girls & Kiddos--
Erin & Luke, Robyn & Morgan, Me & Hud,
Jenna & Tyce, Rebecca & Landon, Tasha & Ava

 

Bring on the water!

  
The Erins.. 

Ava really helped water the grass! :)


More fun to be continued…………

We love our Great Granddad!

We went to see Granddad on Monday with the boys. It had been several weeks to a month since we had seen him last, so it was a fun visit. He got to see both boys walking & really enjoyed seeing them. It’s hard to believe that Granddad & the boys are 90 years apart! He seems to be doing ok given that he’s 91 & we cherish every visit with him.

 

Another A+ Visit

We had the boys’ 15 month appt. yesterday & all checked out great! They’ve definitely slowed down in the weight gain department.. hmmmm.. wonder if the constant movin’ & groovin’ has anything to do with it?

We are now moving Landon off of formula & onto Soy milk. We will see how that goes in the next few days. Also, NO MORE BOTTLES. It needed to happen, & the Dr. said to pull the trigger.  So, last night they got sippy cups before bed & it worked just fine. Amazing that they are still alive & fine without the bottle. Crazy how that works. ;)

Here are their percentiles:

Hudson
*weight- 23lbs, 7 oz(25-50%)
*height- 30.8 in. (50-%)

Landon
*weight- 20lbs, 4 oz (5%)- (A.K.A. skinny boy)
*height- 30.5 (50%)

Another visit where we feel blessed each day that these boys have come so far!

On the move x 2

Well, we officially have 2 walkers in our house now. It’s quite busy & fun at the same time. Hudson is still more cautious and slow & Landon is all out fast & a bit clumsy. I counted 3 falls & bumps & a little bloody nose while just at Robyn’s house yesterday! Yowsers! I’m sure it’ll take some time before they totally get the hang of it.

And Jason reminds me that they are boys & will have bruises and bumps daily. :) I actually try not to gasp or react when they fall so that we don’t create “pansies” for boys.. haha!

This week, we also have pointing at things from Hudson, Landon saying bye- bye, & both saying ball. They are LOADS of fun lately!

 

Do you think they’ll see us back here?

And down I’m about to go…

Outside Playtime!

Well I must say, we’ve been enjoying our patio almost nightly now & the boys say it’s by far their favorite place to be. :)

   

I spy a mama duck & her babies. :)

 

 

Extreme Patio Makeover

The past month has been busy with workers putting in a new patio. We decided after 5 years of living here, it’s time to enjoy the outside of our home! We put in a stamped concrete patio, flower bed, trees, & some furniture. We finished planting yesterday & have already been spending our evenings out there. :) The boys already love it!
