4 months & best friends.....
Rosson turned 4 months on Saturday & I really can't believe it. He keeps getting funner by the day! It's so cute to watch him grab for toys under his play mat or in his bouncy seat or on his exersaucer......you can see the determination in his face! Of course he is all smiles for Jaylen & loves the attention she gives him. After she gets up in the mornings & gives me a hug, she always asks where Rosson is & wants to see him right away! I'm so glad it looks like they are starting to become best friends but we'll see if it keeps on this path as they get older! Here are some pics from this week. Love my kids!

Recycling play clothes....
I don't know about you but I love the Garanimals clothes from Wally World for play clothes......at least the solid colored stuff.....the prints are questionable alot of the time. But, they are cheap so I don't care if they get ruined. Anyways, Jaylen has several knit pants from the fall/winter that she wore all the time & still fit her other than the length. So, today I made them into capris for summer play clothes! Here's what I did.......it was extremely easy!
Here are the pants before I cut them off. I had Jay try them on, rolled up the leg to the length I wanted & put a pin in it to mark it.
Then I just cut them off with my rotary cutter. I'm sure they are not even but it doesn't matter if you are off a bit.
Then I zig-zag stitched around the edge, while pulling the material tight, to give them this cute, ruffly edge!
This was super easy, I didn't spend a dime & now she has 3 pair of play capri pants! You could easily make shorts instead of capris too.

Let's just say he's healthy.....
Mr. Rosson had his 4 month check up this morning & was such a happy little guy through the whole appointment, at least until his shots. He weighed in at 18 lbs 4 oz & was 27 1/4 inches long.....both in the 95th% still! He gained 4 lbs & grew over 2 inches in the last 2 months! He might be huge but at least he's healthy!
She said he was growing great, has good head/neck control & we think his umbilical hernia is gone! We are completely in love with this guy & love watching him explore the world with his eyes & try to tell us all about it by "talking" to us! He absolutely loves his big sister & she's adores him too. She's been wanting to help give him his bottle lately.....it's pretty cute! He has pretty much grown out of his swing & bouncy seat & now is loving his exersaucer. His hands are constantly in his mouth & he loves to suck on them. I could hear him sucking on his hands the other night while he was in the den with Gavan & I was up in the kitchen! It was pretty funny.

Easter 2010.....
We had a great Easter weekend with Gavan's famil this year. Jaylen was really into hunting the eggs & especially finding out what was inside of them! She had a blast with her cousins, however, I have no pictures of her with them to prove it! Rosson just hung out & enjoyed all his aunts & uncles, nana & papa loving on him! Enjoy the pics.....there are several of Jay that I love & are completely her personality!
Dyeing eggs at home Saturday night.....
