Austin is four month today! He is growing up too fast and is definitely not a newborn anymore. He is getting more and more personality everyday! He wants me to be right by him every second of the day to just stare at him. If I’m out of eyesight he gets upset and whines until I return to eye contact. He is A LOT needier than Lily. I think it’s because I treat him more like a baby than I did Lily. I don’t want to miss a second of him growing up so I often to just hug, and stare at him for hours. I never thought he’d become dependent on it! Anyway I’m glad Austin’s a momma’s boy :)
Also Lily started Gymnastics today. She LOVES IT! It definitely wears her out. When we got home she was ready for her nap. She was so good! She did the bars well, the balance bean AWESOME, she was okay with the parachute, she loved jumping, and hated the foam pit. She’ll get better. It wore me out too! But it was fun and I’m glad Lily is getting involved!
Plus she gets to hangout with her BFF Kenzie once a week!
Thanks Nat for the Gymnastics pictures!! :):)

Since Chris is getting deployed soon (probably by the end of the week) they let him off this morning to go see Lily at gymnastics. Lily loved that he was there to watch her, and he kept on saying that he liked it. He wished he had worn lighter clothes, because he didn’t know how involved the parents get. And he’s already telling guys at work about it. I’m glad he enjoyed himself. Lily gets so tired after gymnastics. It’s wonderful, because that mean every Tuesday I’m promised a pretty nice nap from Lily. She doesn’t get tired easily, but this place does the trick! 
Chris and I had so much fun today! We were watching movies from Redbox and messing around. And somehow it turned onto a massive water fight in the house. It was so much fun! I ended up winning of course. But since I did it after we called truce, he THINKS he can get me at anytime. So I am a little cautious. We opened up all the windows and let everything dry out. But it definitely was a lot of fun!! Lily got caught up in the excitement too! 
I just love waking up to the sound of rain. I always feel so refreshed! Rain is so relaxing if you don’t have anywhere to go. I’ve been lying in bed with my incredibly sick, Lily watching Beauty and The Beast and Little Mermaid. I need more Disney movies, I know. But she has been so cuddly. I feel so bad for her. I really hope Austin doesn’t catch this one, but I’m pretty sure that if he catches it we will have to put him back into the hospital. But it is nice to have a pajama filled day with my kids. We have nothing to do and no place to go. I love it when I don’t have a million tasks on my mind when with the kids. I can truly enjoy being with them. Especially when they’re sick and need love and comfort… and books. Lots and lots of books! The kids are napping right now. I think it’s the rain making me to happy. Rain is so refreshing and clean. It’s beautiful and cool in the breeze. Life is love. 
Today we were SUPPOSED to start dance classes, but they are so close to a show so we’re going to start this summer. So instead of classes we went to the Marta to pick up hubbs. He was very surprised and Lily was so excited!
Today was so beautiful! Natalie and I took our kids to the Avondale Estates Park. I thought it was a great park right by my house! It’s kind of hidden! It rocks! Lily had a great time playing with Kenzie and Deano. And Natalie and me enjoyed catching up and relaxing. Chris pretty much played with the kids the whole time and Austin never left Natalie’s arms :) It was really fun! I hope we can do park days more often!
Today we heading back to GA, and on the way we stopped at the Prime Outlets. It was so fun! We found GREAT deals at The Children’s Place! Like REALLY nice hoodies, button up shirts, t shirts, and sweat pants for 1 dollar to 3 dollars! It was awesome! I have cute kid’s winter clothes for a long time!
