A Proud Mama

As a Mum to a 16 month old and an eleven week old, I experience something new with them everyday! A few things that are happening in our house hold (that is probably the best thing ever to happen!) is Jaxon is pooping on the potty! The first time I sat him on there he pooped, I think I scared him with all my over the top praise I heaped on him but I think I was in shock! I was so proud, and now I ask him if he needs to go and he will lift up his shirt, then look at his belly then to me and say uh-oh and that is my queue to get him upstairs asap!

I along with Auntie Brittney took the boys Jaxon and Huxley as well as two other cuties to the swimming pool. This was Huxley's first time in the pool and he was so great, he smiled and kicked his legs it was heartwarming. He was wearing the same wetsuit that Jaxon used to wear, it really made me stop and reflect on how much Jaxon has grown and developed his own personality since he wore that little suit, and how much Huxley will grow and change in the next few months.

There are so many firsts that I will never get back with Jaxon and so many more to come with him and Hux. It makes me so proud that I get to experience all their firsts with them and how blessed I truly am that I am shaping this little human being. I never thought I would be so excited to see poop in toliet, but I have to say it was one of my proudest moments! ;)

Long Time!

It has been too long since I posted, so I thought I would give everyone an update. I went from one babee to two babees! Another beautiful boy came into our lives on January 3rd of this year. Huxley Edward Quinn Hartney, weighing a healthy 7lbs 91/2 ounces and measuring 53 cm. Huxley weighed and was longer than Jaxon, but he was so small, very long and very thin, whereas Jaxon was a tank....and still is!
Huxley is now ten weeks old, and going from one to two is total chaos! At the end of the day when I put my head on my pillow, I can't believe we made it through another day!
The boys have been the best thing I have ever done, and although its chaos most of the time, they both make me laugh everyday and bring nothing but blessings to my life.
