Vacation in Palm Coast

We just got back from a wonderful week in Palm Coast, Florida. The weather was warm and beautiful the whole week. It was a perfect time to visit. We did not do much but rest, at least rest as much as you can with a 3 year old and a 7 month old. We enjoyed the beach and pool, shopping in Orlando and lots of eating! The boys had a great time visiting with their grandparents and we enjoyed the extra help and babysitting they provided! As nice as it is to get away, it always feels good to get back home and back on routine.

Riverbanks Zoo

My employer, LexiCode, had our annual family day at our local zoo again this year. Brady really seemed to enjoy the zoo this time. I think his favorite part was feeding the giraffes. He also rode the merry go round and enjoyed a train ride. Last year when we went he was a little to young, so we just bypassed those. I carried Finley around in his carrier, and he napped through most everything. It was a very cloudy day, luckily we were able to walk around the zoo and then enjoy my company picnic before heading out. It was a nice day out with my boys!!!

Finley = 7 Months

Our little love bug is officially 7 months old. I can't believe it but this time with Finley feels like it is moving even faster then it did with Brady. He is just the sweetest, happiest little guy most of the time. The only time he really gets fussy is when he is sleepy. He is not a good sleeper and seems to be afraid that he is going to miss something. He hardly sleeps any during the day and at night he is starting to sleep for a few hours and then wakes up and wants to eat. I just can't stand to hear him cry, so I usually go get him right away. He is still nursing about 4-5 times a day, but is now officially eating baby food for every meal. We even introduced some organic yogurt made for babies, and he absolutely loves it! He is still loving his Baby Mum Mums too.

We just switched over to size 3 diapers, and he is wearing 6-9 month clothing. We did not have a well check appointment this month, so I don't have an update on that. He is definitely growing because, he is getting longer in all his pajamas and we have moved from 6 months to 9 months in them. I just love watching this boy grow and interact with him big brother.
