Thank Heaven for Mothers

All I have to say is I am so so so so so thankful that my mother was able to come and stay with me for this week. She has made things so much easier on me and has been such a HUGE help to me. She has played with my kids, cleaned my house, bought us groceries, cooked us food, made some casseroles, helped with Weston and has just been the BEST MOM EVER!! She took the kids to the pumpkin patch on Wed. and they had a wonderful time. She raked the leaves today and as you can see Gage and Macy just wanted to jump in them. I'm going to be really sad to see her go but equally happy that my mother-in-law is coming to help me next week. What did I do to get so spoiled. THe saying is true you are never to old to need your mommy!!! I love you mom and thanks so much for all of your help. Don't worry....I'll try to hold it together when you leave.

Baby Weston Reed Witt Is Here!!!!

We are happy to announce that our new baby boy, Weston Reed Witt, has arrived to our family!! He was born at 9:13 am on Saturday Oct. 17th and was a healthy 8 lbs. 1 oz. and 21 inches long. It was actually a pretty easy labor and it was meant to be that he was supposed to be here on Saturday!! I even had him earlier that day than if they would have induced me! He is such a doll and Gage and Macy love him so much already. They were singing Twinkle Little Star and Happy Birthday to him in the hospital and are constantly fighting over who gets to hold Weston. He loves to eat, and much to my dismay my milk isn't in yet, so he's been having some bottles to hold him over, but other than when he's hungry he doesn't cry much!!! We came home from the hospital yesterday and my mom gets to stay with us for a week and Steve's mom is coming next week, which is so helpful!!! I'm completely exhausted but feel extremely blessed to have a happy and healthy little boy!!!!!

Playing Dress-up

So Macy is starting to turn into a girlie girl after all! She got some dress up clothes for her birthday and this is what she had on the other day. Isn't she quite the matcher. Gage was of course her stylist, but was upset that he couldn't wear her "up and down shoes" aka high heels. She wore those shoes ALL day and finally took them off after she had a little fall on the stairs, after I had warned her several times not to wear them on the stairs. Isn't she darling???

She likes to wear the shoes the best in the kitchen because they make noise and she definitely stomps around when she wears them!

Look out Chuck E. Cheese

Quite the competition they had going

Gage was very serious while playing this race game The whole family....one more added soon!

Macy the motorcyle maniac!
So I really wanted to do one more fun thing with just Gage and Macy before the new baby arrives so we decided to take them to Chuck E. Cheese. Now this is not my favorite place in the world because I always think of germs and dirty kids and stuff, but on a Monday night I didn't think it would be that busy, and it wasn't!! It was actually quite clean, and the kids had an absolute blast... I think their dad might have actually had more fun than they did!!! Gage was in awe of all of the games and was back and forth and running as fast as he could to play every single game. Macy was thrilled with the little ride you put the "moneys" in and just wanted to keep riding them. She would play a game with her dad once in awhile but had so much fun!!! I was so glad that we decided to go and had a great time with my family!! Poots and her crew came with us and had lots of fun too...even her older boys! So Chuck E. Cheese is

now redeemed in my book and we may even actually go back..not for awhile I'm sure, but maybe soon!
