Taos Ropin'

I took this short video for Casey's mom... long story, but when my nephew was little Casey would always move his little baby arms to look like he was roping a calf. It was so funny because the babies just bobble around and let you move their arms however you want to. Anyways, Casey was doing it with Taos so we took a video to send to his mom. After Casey makes Taos rope the imaginary calf Taos just grins from ear to ear. It is so precious - you have to look closely though, he's only 5 weeks old. I decided I had to post it on here for others to smile at. I just posted some new pics below so make sure and look down there too.

This weekend we were so excited for Casey's sister Angela and her 2 kids to come and visit us. They were glad to be out of school for the summer and we were ready for them to meet Taos. Here are a few pictures from this weekend.

Our little slugger is getting so big!
Avery and Boone played in the sprinkler

We went to Jump Zone in Borger - the kids had a blast. Avery kept saying, "Mom I love this place. Can we come back tomorrow?"

We had so much fun! Taos - 5 weeks, Boone - 5, Bella - 13 months, Avery - 2 1/2

Beautiful weather

Today and yesterday have been gorgeous days. We have been trying to take advantage of the nice weather (meaning no 100 mph wind blowing) and be outside. Here are a few pictures of things we have enjoyed.

This one is a tad blurry, but had to include it since it is me with both my kiddos.

I walked out of the living room for 5 minutes and when I came back, Avery had given (stacked) Taos some toys to play with... wasn't that nice :)

She loves holding her little brother :) It makes my heart melt

Oh, and I had to include these - American Idol meets Dancing with the Stars... not sure where the 3 pair of sunglasses fit in???

Serious about her singing!

2 weeks

Little Taos is 2 weeks old! His 2 week checkup went great. He weighed 8 lbs. 6 oz. and was a little over 20 1/2 in. long. What a big boy! He is growing quickly already. He checked out perfectly and we don't go back again until 2 months. Here are some pictures of our sweet boy.
