Post vacation regular life - 4th week of July 2015

We got home from Florida early enough that we were still able to enjoy some of our Wednesday.

Working on our family band. (not really)

Here's how Max is doing on his skills for his current level at swim lessons.  Almost every skill marked off.

Climbing on the chairs.  Sure she's cute but she worries me with her lack of fear.  :)

It's a battle I constantly lose to get to her sit on her bottom.

The kids were excited to see each other.  They missed each other a lot.  We had quite a few facetime conversations while we were apart.

They brought Maxwell back a watch.  He was so excited.  He brought his cousins back a turtle necklace (like the one he's wearing).

Kindermusik with Miss Leah and playing with mirrors.


Now playing with a wood block.

Getting our swim on next door.


Video - Emmalyn throwing a FIT when she should be napping.  Notice the attitude at the end when she chucks her binky out of the bed.  Can the "terrible two's" start early?!

She had this horrible spot on her face.  It just seemed to keep getting bigger.  My best guess was that it was a bug bite.  Because we had just been out of town, I was really worried she'd been bitten by something poisonous.  (Once I put some lavender oil on it, it started getting better.  Wish I had thought of that earlier.)

The kids enjoyed playing in the kiddie pool together



Video - Max professing his love for his sister, sort of

Emmalyn got some minnie mouse ears from Brittany from Disney World

Things have certainly changed at work with pumping.  When I started - this was the schedule.  Completely booked and double booked (I either pumped with one other girl in there or with 2 other girls in there!)

Now, there's only 3 of us and one of those is not consistent at all.  It's been really nice to have the flexibility back and not be so tied to set 30 minute window.  But I'm done.  I have decided to finally stop pumping.  I made it to 15 1/2 months.  I will still nurse but I'm not going through the hassle (and disappointment/discouragement) of pumping anymore.  I am proud to have made it this far and felt like I fought hard to get here.

Brittany was doing fun things with the kids - like making crowns

My background at work - - such a sweet little baby

And now look how big she is!  Britt put the cute ribbon in her hair


She loves her Uncle Jo jo.
