One wedding down, one to go

We had one of our weddings this past weekend. It was a pretty busy week last week. Since it was Garrett's brother I volunteered to help. It was an action packed week which meant that we actually had to get up and around to be places. That hasn't happened since a week or two before Conner was born. Let's just say we aren't in the swing of getting up early or having to be at a certain place that early either. So, the last two days we've been trying to sleep in. Sawyer and I got to sleep until about 9:15 yesterday and today I had to get up with Conner since Garrett had to go to work. But, Sawyer slept until 9:45. The stinker. He says that weddings make him tired. Well he better get used to it because we have another one this weekend that both him and Garrett are in. By the way, tux rentals are EXPENSIVE now. Or maybe it's just the ones that the people are picking out. But, over $300 for the both just for the day is expensive. We had two last year and thank goodness just one this year is having tuxes. But, the kids tuxes cost the same as adults now. Just a bit of info. for all those planning on getting hitched anytime soon.

Sawyer's Birthday

Opening Grandma and Papa Naughty's present.

Sawyer had a good birthday. He was very spoiled as always. Thank you to all of you that sent cards and presents. He's been playing with them all. Sawyer and I have a Mama and Sawyer day planned on Friday when we will go shopping for anything he wants with his money. He's very excited since it will just be me and him. Conner is suppose to bestaying with Garrett but, will probably end up with Grandma Dana. It's hard trying to get Daddy to spend a day with Conner yet. Hopefully that changes soon so Conner can get used to being with him since there are times when they still haven't "clicked". But, thanks again for all the great stuff!

The boys got their pictures taken this past Friday. The photographer just emailed me a preview. I liked it.

Conner's Tummy Time

Somehow I don't think sleeping is considered a productive tummy time. The neck muscles are what we are going for, not eyelid ones. :)

Conner

Conner is rolling over at 41/2wks. Only from his belly to his back, but he's doing it. Man, that is way early. Garrett is my witness. He did it 3-4 times last night after we got home from grocery shopping. He also wants to move. We put him on his belly for "tummy time" and he moves his legs and tries to get his feet stuck on something to move. All he really needs is arm strength and a little more neck strength and I think we are in trouble. He holds his head pretty well already. It still bobs some but, he's been doing that since birth. He's only much better at it now. Man, do these boys ever quit growing fast.

Sawyer went to his dr. appt. for school. We have to go back for shots. He seems ok with it since Conner will get his shots too on the same day. We'll see how this goes. Maybe Garrett will have to go with me to help me consol. Lord knows he won't hold onto them when they get shots. He doesn't want to be the bad guy.

The boys also got their pictures taken yesterday. We went to a local photographer. She was very nice and very reasonable in price. Only $100 for all the pictures I got. She did a very nice job. I think we'll go back. Sawyer really liked her and I would spend that much if not more going to Penny's or Sears. She was much nicer and took almost 2hrs. taking shots, all of which were very nice. I had a hard time choosing. I'll let you know when she has them online to see. I should get the pictures back in a week or week and a half.
