& then there's this one...



Huxley keeps us on our toes.
Seriously. 
24/7 this boy is. 
He loves holding his Baby Sister, watching Kipper the Dog, playing on his iPad, helping cook, puzzles (seriously, like 25+ piece puzzles), coloring, making snowmen, and snuggling Daddy.
He's almost completely potty trained too, which is awesome. 
Stepping in puddles of pee...not so awesome.
He also has a really cool "Gotta pee but don't want to stop doing what I'm doing" dance.
I hope to catch it on video so I have leverage when he is sixteen and has a girlfriend. 

Hux, our sweet Wild Child.
We love him so.

seven month young lady

Ellis June is astounding.

The way she has grown over the past seven months is absolutely mind boggling!
She's been eating like a champ since around 5 months, and is going "baby-led weaning" where she's eating what we eat, and hasn't had any issues at all! When Hux was a babe he'd choke and gag on the tiniest chunks in his puree. The differences between the two is night & day. 
Ellis has been trying earnestly to stand up. She so desperately wants to walk, but is a very quick crawler, and is fearless when it comes to the stairs--so we keep an every close eye on that little dumpling, all the time. 

The kids have been struggling with nap time lately--Huxley wakes Ellis up from hers, and refuses to go down himself, leaving Mama at her wits end around 2pm daily. Then out of no where they both konk out and I am left thinking, "Oh, that wasn't so bad."

It's not so bad. They're the cutest, funniest little duo. We love them beyond the moon.

We spent ours at the doctor, sorting out new options for Mama's ongoing post-cesarean pain issues. Joy, oh joy!

Funky Legs, McGee.




I am not ashamed to admit that I am a pretty big clothes snob when it comes to dressing my babes--that is, when they do get dressed, because geez Louise, Huxley is not a fan of clothing. This boy is happier than anything buck naked all day long, even if the house is set to a cooler temp. So that being said, when he does rock his clothes, he rocks them well.

We were sent some ridiculously rad items from Funky-Legs. They hit the mark with their designs, especially these harem style leggings for Hux. The design is awesome, with the neon drawstring detail? Simply perfection. Funky-Legs are so snuggly, made with only the finest quality fabrics and designs that will set your kid apart from all the rest on their play-date. I also love to pack these as a back-up pair when we are out for special occasions and he's in slacks, these are my go-to 'ride home comfies'.

Ellis also got a really awesome pair of tights but she hasn't quite grown into them yet--she will model them soon for you all! Until then, go and check out Funky-Leg's website and order your little some stylin' legwear today!
