Greyson Brock...

My sweet little man is one today. Where has the time gone? My little buddy is the sweetest guy ever and loves to cuddle with his mamma. He's so low key, at least compared to my girls. I love coming in his room in the morning to find him standing in his crib with a grin from ear to ear. He recently fell in love with one of Lexie's many stuffed animals and loves to cuddle with this little puppy every night. Greyson loves to clap, give high fives, play in his big sisters' room, pull ornaments off the Christmas tree, walk while holding our hands and play. He's awesome. If I could clone him I would seriously have another child. Unfortunately, I can't. That sums up how much I love this kiddo =)

Play Dirty...

I ran in the Play Dirty 5K this weekend in Baton Rouge. It was so much fun! I love to run, but I don't love getting dirty. Luckily, I did it with a bunch of girls, otherwise I would probably have never signed up for this. It was basically a 5K with about 12 obstacles throughout the course. It really was a blast.

This was our team - We were called the "Run Amucks"

That huge guy in the overalls was shaking the rope the whole time which made it really difficult to climb!

This was so disgusting! My shoes were so squishy the rest of the run.

These two cuties watched the whole thing! I can't believe Lexie is only 5 pounds more than Greyson when they're two years apart!

A Rapunzel party...

Our sweet Kaitlyn is now 5! The day she turned 5 she kept asking "do I look bigger" or "do I look like I'm 5 now"? Katy loves art, music, dance, books and bugs. Every teacher she's had so far has commented on what a good artist she is and how good she is for her age. Maybe this will be her talent (she's about as talented at sports as I am). She also loves picking out her clothes and telling me how to fix her hair. I really need to learn some cool hair styles, because she's getting bored with the 3 hair do's I know. This year Kaitlyn requested a Rapunzel birthday party. We're just a little obsessed with the movie over here =) Here are some pics from her party.

Rapunzel's braid was hanging on our front door (I had to crop the picture so it wouldn't show our address)

Each kid got to take a picture in Rapunzel's tower. Nana painted it just for the party =)

Lexie just got up from her nap and wasn't quite ready to smile yet

We made Pascal party blowers. This is the best picture I have of the finished product.

Here's one of the sun banners I made.

Katy and I made the cupcake toppers. It was so easy and the kids liked picking out who they got to eat.We played pin the nose on Flynn Rider. Jared made a whole bunch of funny noses so each kid had a different silly nose to "pin" on Flynn.

Florida...

We spent a wonderful week at the beach in Florida. It was our first time to Destin and it was BEAUTIFUL! They definitely call it the Emerald Coast for a reason. Kaitlyn and Alexis loved playing in the sand and jumping in the waves. Greyson pretty much chilled under the umbrella and took naps. He was a trooper though. On Sunday we decided to go to church and eat all of our meals at the hotel and maybe play at the beach for a bit. Well, we all got up early, showered, put on our nice clothes and headed to 9:00 am church. When we got there nobody was in sight and there was a sign on the door saying it was stake conference. There was no reference to where conference was or what time. Jared and I looked at each other, smiled and headed straight to the beach! At least we tried, right?

The girls loved playing in the white, powdery sand

We also went to the Naval Aviation Museum in Pensacola. It was AWESOME!

I have a horrible fear of bridges and had a panic attack walking across this bridge with my kids. I think it's gotten worse with age, considering I once jumped out of a plane, but now cannot walk across a two story bridge =)

He's such a smiler.

The kiddos...

I haven't blogged in forever! We just got back from vacation a few days ago (more on that to come), but here's what's new with the kiddos!

Greyson is exactly 6 months old in this picture. He's always smiling =)

At his 6 month checkup he weighed 18 pounds 5 ounces and was 27.5 inches long. He's rolling and scooting all over the place. He is a champ at eating solids. By far the best appetite of all my children. He'll sit on his own for a minute or so before toppling over.

Lexie is so stinkin cute she gets away with everything. Definitely a mama's girl. She's speaking a lot more clearly and really learning a lot. She starts mother's day out in the fall - we'll see how that goes!

Kaitlyn finished out the school year with her dance recital. She took tap and ballet lessons all year and liked it okay, but when she found out she got to wear this cute outfit and dance on a stage she suddenly fell in love with dance. My oh my was she adorable to watch!

I can't believe my little Katy will start Kindergarten in the Fall. She's definitely ready for it, but I don't know if I am. There's just something more official about Kindergarten then pre-k. I guess they have to grow up sometime =(

Pictures...

We had pictures done a few weeks ago. Here are some of my faves...

The bubs...

Our little bubs is already 3 months old! He's finally growing out of the brand new newborn stage and filling out. His 3 month check up is tomorrow, but we weighed him on our scale and it says he's 15.5 pounds! Greyson has a pretty good sleep schedule at night. He goes to bed around 8:00 pm wakes up around 3:00 or 4:00 am and then sleeps until 7:00-ish. For now, that's awesome. He's such a good baby and I've caught myself thinking several times that if I could have another one just like him I would!

Last Sunday we were able to bless our little man. Jared's mom, dad, aunt and uncle were all able to fly in for the event. It was such a special day and he was a little angel. We pressed record on Jared's iPhone and stuck it in his coat pocket and were able to record the whole blessing. My friend Erika (DRY Ink) snapped these photos after the blessing.
