Brooks HeArTs Summer

Wow, I don't know about you, but I sure am digging this warm weather we are having. Only because I get to have these...

Not only do they cool me off, but they also feel good to my swollen gums (my mommy keeps telling me something about my teeth coming in, but I'm not sure what that's all about).

Oh, this is SO good!!
I HeArT Summer!!!

Steal of a Deal

I was suppose to be shopping for myself yesterday afternoon, but somehow I made the mistake of walking into The Children's Place. WOW...are they having one heck of a sale. All of the shirts were marked down to $5.99 and the shorts were like $8.99 and there was a sign that read "take an additional 50% off the already reduced price" so I just started grabbing what they had in Brooks' size. I double checked the prices with the girl that worked there and she basically told me everything on sale was almost free...and that's all I needed to hear! Brooks made out like a bandit...9 new shirts and 3 pair of new shorts all less than 50 bucks!!! Burkley didn't get anything this trip because, well, she can still fit in all of her newborn and 0-3 month outfits!!! If you have little ones, you might think about making a trip to The Children's Place to see if you can find any good deals!! Good luck and happy shopping!!!

This is How She Rolls...or Should I Say Swings?!

This isn't the first time she has done this, but it's the first time I have captured it for your viewing pleasure! What a mess...one minute she's chewing on a cold teething ring and is so "into" Old McDonald and the next minute I look up to find her sitting in her swing like this. I love when she holds on to the side bars, but she wasn't doing that this afternoon. Oh, and I noticed this afternoon that her bottom gum is super swollen and it looks as if a tiny tooth may be making an appearance very soon (same goes for Brooks...his bottom teeth are right there). Maybe the tooth fairy will put a little something in their piggy banks when those little teeth decide to pop on out!!
**Question**
Do you know many (if any) 7 month olds that wear the following sizes: newborn or 0-3 months???
I KNOW ONE LITTLE ONE WHO STILL DOES!!

Sunday's Best

Whew...it's only 11:24 and I'm already exhausted and wishing I could lay down and take a nap, but we all know that's not going to happen! Since the twins have been born, we have only made it to church as a family a number of times and to be honest, I really miss going (Cory, PaPa, and Uncle Bob go every Sunday morning). It's just hard getting everyone up, fed, dressed, and out the door for 8 o'clock Mass. So, last night, I ironed the kids clothes and laid out my things, got everything ready in the diaper bag, and set the alarm for 6 o'clock in hopes that we would make it to church as a family. And guess what...we did! It wasn't an easy task, but I'm so glad that we were able to make it. B&B were PERFECT during Mass and everyone was so excited to see them and couldn't believe how much they have grown. I'm not going to lie...I did want to say something to the little old lady that came up and touched their little hands...guess she couldn't read the signs that hang on their infant seats with the following "PLEASE WASH YOUR HANDS BEFORE TOUCHING MINE." And here's a few pictures of my little Sunday Sweeties!!
