2 Weeks Doctor's Appointment

The girls started Vacation Bible School last Monday. Jaina was unsure if her wanted to attend but as soon as we pulled up in the parking lot she started seeing a bunch of her friends and wanted to stay. 
While they were at VBS that gave me a chance to get some things done like take Jewell to her 2 week doctors appointment.
She didn't know what to think about that, lol. 
Her stats were all great!
She is growing like a little weed already.
She is now 21 inches long and 8.1 pounds. Her heart rate was 178 and Dr. Talbot just loved and loved on her. She said Jewell was perfect!
She also got her PKU shot and didn't even make a peep! 
We've been getting in LOTS of snuggle time.
Isn't she perfect yall!
Her little growth chart from the hospital with her little foot prints.
And her hospital picture.

Jewell's Nursery

I never posted Jewell's nursery so here it is. I love it!
When I first got pregnant I decided the baby would go in our guest room only because I had JUST finished the girls room and got them set up the way I wanted. I even had just finished the guest room and had it fixed up the way I wanted but things changed so I had to move some things around.
This is what it looks like as you walk in.
This room is pretty small. Since it's so small I wanted to keep it simple. 
I went with a flower theme.
I bought letters and painted them pink and Justin mounted them on the wall for me. The gold frame came from Burlington Coat Factory along with the pink, white and gold flowers.
Her bed is iron. I wanted something simple and nothing wood or bulky. I bought her bed online at Bed, Bath and Beyond. Her bedding came from Buy Buy Baby and I LOVE it and my sister gave me her little fish tank to hang on the crib.
I originally had this twin in Jolee's room and a full size bed in here when it was a guest room but I to switch things around because I had to make things fit. So I bought a new iron headboard for the full size bed and put that in Jolee's room and I moved her twin into the babies room. It works for now. 


I bought the pink bedding from Target and already had the pink curtains. 
I bought these flower portraits a couple years ago and hung them in the babies room. I had a gold frame from my baby gender reveal that I hung and then placed a gold J that I had at my baby shower
Tim and Justin painted the room white for me and hung a new white fan in the room. I left my desk in the room for now. I figured it would be a few years before she starts really playing in her room and the computer could stay for now.
I had no room for a changing table or a dresser so I had to come up with a different idea and saw this one on pinterest. 
So I bought several plastic containers and labeled them and have everything organized. I LOVE the way this turned out. 
There is another closet in her room but for now I have my craft stuff in it and will move it to my closet once that times comes for all those toys, lol. 
And that's it! 
Plain and simple. Something I need in my life at 35 with a new born baby, lol.

Scarlett's 1st Birthday Party

Saturday was Scarlett's first birthday party.
The party was at Rhiannon's boyfriend's grandparents house in Seabrook.
The girls had a blast swimming in the pool

Haha, Austin
Do you see Scarlett's fingers? She is letting us know she is turning one!
I got to see a lot of people I haven't seen in awhile. They were all excited to meet Jewell
Me and Travis
Travis is Bobby's (Rhiannon's dad) brother. We went to high school together. It's always great seeing him and catching up.
After Scarlett's party we headed home to Salado. We got home really late and were glad to be back home.
The next day we lounged around the house. Jewell tried out her little swing. She didn't know what to think of it. 
Is this not the cutest picture of Jolee with her little sister :)

Under the Boradwalk

Friday evening my sister's and I met up at the Kemah Boardwalk. The boardwalk is a lot of fun. They have lots of restaurants, shopping, games, rides and so much more.
Our goal was to take the kids to the Aquarium to eat dinner.
This is a fun place to take the kids. All the walls in the restaurant are aquariums with big fish that swim around you while you are eating. 
The kids LOVED it!
Jewell on the other hand slept through the whole meal
So fun!
We had a great dinner and then Stephanie and Saylor headed home.
We walked around the boardwalk
The kids were lovin it.
And then we stopped to watch their Friday night fireworks
Jewell was all bright eyed during the fireworks

She wasn't liking the noise of them and wanted to cuddle 
After the show we let the kids ride some rides
Jaina and Alyssa rode the sit and spin and Jolee rode the carousel
And then they all enjoyed the train ride around the park while I waited for them with the baby.
We got home super late, took showers and went straight to bed

Saylor's 2nd Birthday Party

Thursday the girls and I headed to Houston. We met my sister Stephanie at her house and then went and ate dinner at Gringo's, my favorite Houston spot!
Then we headed to my mom's house to stay the night.
The next morning we got up early and headed to Chuck E Cheese for Saylor's 2nd birthday party.
We were the first one's there so it was nice to have the place to ourselves
And the girls got to enjoy all the games to themselves
They played the games first while we waited on pizza.
They racked in the tickets
Jaina's loot. A slinky bracelet and a gummy candy
Jolee's loot was these pink fang teeth, a top and a plastic toy
Then it was time to celebrate with pizza, cake, presents and singing Happy Birthday
After the party I ran some errands and then came back to my mom's house to play with baby Scarlett
Too cute
