BIRTHDAYS, BIRTHDAYS, AND MORE BIRTHDAYS

I am currently planning SEVERAL birthday parties and even though it is taking up most of my time in the early morning hours (12-3 am) I am having a blast doing it.

The first one that I am planning is Stockton's birthday on Nov. 10th and he is wanting to do laser tagging AGAIN this year for his party with a sleepover afterwards. I am trying to be creative with another laser tag party but I am stuggling. However, I did find some great invitations online but after showing them to Stockton he said " Mom, I like them but the laser guys on the front look "funny" I said what do you mean "funny" and he said "like YOUNG" Okay after he said that I could see what he meant I forget that my little guy is turning "10" Crazy! So now I am back to square one trying to find unique invites. However, I did line up his cake with the greatest cake decorator around " I'll post pictures." Very excited to have at least that lined up. I am excited to get everything ready for my little (BIG) man's party.

Addie's I am soooo excited about because it's a surprise party for her. She decided last year that she wanted to have a summer party instead of another indoor November birthday and it was very convienent for her to make that choice because we were in Disney World on her birthday . So we ended up doing a summer birthday party in June and now she wants to have one on her birthday (5 months later) I thought I don't want to invite the same kids to her party after just having one!!!! So I decided that I will throw her a surprise party with mostly family and 3 of her bestest friends (then I can call and explain why they are being invited to ANOTHER party for Addie.) I don't want to post what I am planning for her just incase it gets out but I can't wait she is going to be THRILLED!!!!!!

I am also planning Chelsea's party another one that I am so excited about.

And then Aaron's which is........

Brightyn's is coming up in January everything she wants is of course as GIRLY as I can make it. Found the cutest INVITES for hers as well.

I love this time of year EVERYONE I love is having birthdays.

Poor Paisley

Poor Paisley has been so sick with her acid reflex this week. She throws up several times a day and wants to be held ALL the time I can't lay her down not even for a minute. She is currently of a medication to help but it is not doing the trick as of yet I heard that it takes time to kick in so I am hoping that any day now she will start feeling better. It is so hard as a parent to watch your kids in pain and especially a little one that can't tell you what is wrong or what might make her more comfortable. But I am grateful for mother intuition because I started her on rice cereal with peaches in it to help the taste and her medication on the same day and she had a very bad reaction and just screamed for 2 nights I wasn't sure what was causing her to be in this much pain so I thought that it was going to take a few days to figure out what exactly it was and I just had a feeling it was the peaches that was causing her reflex to be worse and sure enough it was so I am so happy that she is not in as much pain as she was but she is still so miserable. A good friend of the family that is a nurse in the NICU gave me some great tips that might help so I ran right to the store and am starting them first thing in the morning and I am praying that they will help her.

My Baby is 4 Months Old!!!!!




Paisley weighed 13 lbs at her 4 month check up which put her in the 17th percentile, 21 percentile in height and 52 in head and if there was a measurement for her cheeks I am certain that she would be off the charts. She is in the best stage right now.

She is so close to laughing. She will give that little coo sound.

She is loving this little baby of Brightyn's that makes coo and laughing sounds she will just sit and stare and smile at it for hours it has been a life saver while we are in the car because she HATES her car seat.

She is spoiled rotten. She is now at the age where she will watch you walk away after i have laid her down I will see her little eyes follow me as I walk out of the room and then within seconds she will usually start crying.

She is a smart little thing in the middle of the night when me or Aaron will go into get her she will instantly stop crying as soon as she hears our footsteps walking into her room.

When she doesn't want to look at someone who is talking to her she will just keep turning her head right to left in the opposite direction. It is so funny to watch. Poor Brightyn gets it the most

She loves blowing bubbles at you.

Spits up A LOT. (Not so fun) Go through 2-4 outfits a day---- Definitely didn't need anymore laundry

Started feeding her rice cereal and she gives me the "this is disgusting face" and spits it all out at me.

I love kissing and blowing in her neck. This is my prediction of her first laugh.

I love watching her sit in her bumbo on the kitchen table watching Brightyn color. Priceless moment.

I could hold her all day everyday. I just cant get enough of this sweet little thing. I am so BLESSED I have the greatest kids in the world. I just want to freeze time so that they stop growing I always tell them that we are going to stop having birthdays so they can stay my babies and I usually get this response. "yeah right mom." Oh how I wish time would just stop going by so quickly.

My sweet Paisley Bostyn,

You are the sweetest thing we could ever have asked for. Your bother and sisters just can't get enough of you they get so excited to get home from school just to see you. There is not a thing in this world that would ever get me excited to get up in the middle of the night every night but every time I hear you in your crib usually talking and cooing I jump right up and can't wait to see you and cuddle with you in my bed. I am so excited to see you grow and interact with Stockton. Addie, and Brightyn they just cherish you. You dad also just can't get enough of you. He loves playing with you and TEASING you (yes, already) by blowing at your neck and giving you the cold chills every time. I am so so very grateful that you get to come to work with me everyday so that I never have to leave you. You are so beautiful and just as sweet as they come I can't wait for so many things for you but as for now I want you to just stay little forever. I love you very much and so does your sisters, dad,and big brother.

Love, Mommy
