Just love this boy and the crazy, funny things that come from his mouth!

First Bites!

 

 

 

                 This sweet girl got to try oatmeal for the first time this week! I was planning on waiting until she was 6 months to start solids, but since she has stopped sleeping through the night, I decided to go ahead and give it a try! Her face was so funny when she first tried it, she seriously didn't know what to do with it! I think overall she really enjoyed it though, and the good great news is that she slept through the night after trying it! I think the oatmeal is here to stay!

 

 

This is when things started to get a little messy!

 

Guess this food thing is all right!



Brothers! .... Need I say more?

Love this little chubs!!!

Maylee is 4 Months Old!

 

 

              Just realized that today is Maylee's four month birthday! Can't believe how the time has flown by and that she is already four months. Maylee is the most calm, laid back, happy, and good tempered baby I have ever met! She seriously smiles all the time, sleeps through the night, and hardly ever cries! She is such a sweet baby and joy to have around. It has been fun this time to just really enjoy the time and to be able to have the time to just spoil and love on one baby. I loved when the twins were babies, but I always felt so guilty because with two newborns, neither one gets all that much attention. It's been astonishing to me how much easier just one healthy baby is!

 

       Maylee is now up to 13 pounds exactly. She has started reaching some new miles stones including rolling both ways, laughing, cooing, smiling, starting to hold a rattle, being able to sit in a bumbo, and bringing her hands and feet to her mouth. She also loves her brother and sister, and loves to watch them play and she always smiles and laughs when they talk to her. This girl also loves alone time with her mama, and just to be snuggled and rocked. I just LOVE this stage that she is in and wish it would never end!! So wish I could just freeze time right now!

 

 

 

 

 



Happy Halloween!

            We had a great Halloween over here at the Burns home! During the morning we had a fun day painting pumpkins. Later that day the kids dressed up and went to visit my grandma at her assisted living. Kenna dressed up as snow white this year and Connor dressed up as a pirate. I was lucky because Kenna borrowed one of Calli's old Halloween costumes and my mom made Connor's costume. We also bought Maylee a little lady bug sleeper that looked adorable on her.
          That night we took the kids out trick or treating and then came back to our block party and ate chili and watched the movie Hotel Transylvania. The kids loved trick or treating and were way excited to stay up late and watch movies with the other neighborhood kids. The next day I let the kids each pick out ten pieces of candy to keep and then we donated the rest of their candy to the troops. I was so surprised they weren't even sad about it!(I sure was though.:)  It was really awesome because the orthodontist by our house was paying kids for their candy and sending the candy to the troops. The kids cashed in on ten bucks between the two of them, and we used to money to take them to a movie and lunch the next day.

My sweet Snow White

What a scary pirate!

 

This girl was so tuckered out from the days activities!

 

 

Tummy Troubles

          My sweet little man has been having a lot of tummy issues this past year. He complains about his belly hurting almost everyday and has for the past few months. We finally decided to take him to a gastroenterologist to try to figure something out. They have put him on miralax and prevacid to see if it would help.  The meds have maybe helped a little bit but not much. They finally decided to scope him and do an EGD, were they look in his stomach with a camera looking for allergies or any other problems. He had his scope on October 28th in the morning. He couldn't have any solid food that morning, so I took the kids to get Slurpees for breakfast, which they both thought was just awesome. Connor was pretty freaked at first when we went there. He kept asking anyone and everyone there if he had to get a shot. When the nurse told him no, his whole demeanor changed. He was so brave and tough through the whole thing. The procedure went well and they didn't really find anything except a small hiatal hernia. He was really sick to his stomach and confused after the procedure. I felt so bad for him.. We took the kids to Golden Corral that night as a reward for him being brave and having to go through it. His stomach started hurting at the restaurant though, and he ended up kind of having a rough night. Hope we can figure out what the issue is soon!

Maylee's Blessing

      We blessed Maylee on October 13th, 2013 at home on a Sunday afternoon. We decided to do it at home this year, just to have it a little more intimate and close. My family and grandmother came and also, Brother Despain from the bishopric came to help with the blessing. I wish I took notes right after the blessing, but a few things that stood out to me were that I thought were special. She was blessed and told that she would be a peacemaker in the home, which couldn't be more fitting to her. She has such a sweet and calm countenance. She was also blessed that someday she would find a companion who would love her and take her to the temple to be married. She was also blessed to know of  and feel Heavenly Father's love for her through her life. Eric did and great job and the spirit was really there. So grateful that Eric is a worthy priesthood holder and able to give his children blessings! It was also my mom's 50th birthday, so we had a little celebration for her birthday also! Happy Birthday Mom! Thanks for all you do! We love you!

Best family pic we could get. Maylee is about as happy in these pictures

as she looks. She so did not appreciate having that big dress on her!

 

 

I think Connor thought it was his birthday!
