McCoy's first 49ers game....


Sunday McCoy and I headed up to his first niners game. For McCoy is was Hello and Goodbye Candlestick since it was his first game to attend and his last! :) Last for two reason, one we will be going to the Georgia Dome from now on to cheer on the Falcons and also his last because Candlestick is going to be torn down after this season! Time for the new stadium finally! :)

Easton didn't get to attend because I was not up for chasing him, but I think he had fun swimming with Miss Nikki, his baby sitter!

Love this one! :) Watching with Daddy!

Loves the girls already! :)
A little dark, but we tried! :)

Checking things off the bucket list...


Two of my favorite things I have done off my bucket list brought me lots of joy this weekend. First off I finally got to stomp grapes! My friend Kristin and I entered into a grape stomping festival yesterday! And much to our surprise we were actually good! We won our heat and then got 3rd place in the finals. We won a bottle of wine! Wahoo! :)








My other bucket list item was to sponsor a child and write to him. Well Steve is my little man and I got the sweetest letter back from him yesterday! He even wanted to know what the sex of my baby was, since he remembered I had told him I was having a baby but did not know the gender! How cute is he!



It was a great little Saturday!

McCoy's first plane ride...


For those who don't know yet, we have exciting news that we are MOVING! :) Yes, again! It's a thing we apparently like to do these days. This time we are Atlanta bound! We are very excited and can't wait to get settled in and start meeting new people! We are a bit sad too to be leaving California, we have loved getting to see the Drake family a lot more, and we met some great people here in the Bay Area. Let's also not forget that we are leaving some great weather, and some beautiful beaches. So if you didn't come visit us here, I am sorry, because in Atlanta all we will have to offer you is some traffic and humidity, from what I hear! :)

So this past weekend we loaded  up the family and went to ATL to look for a home. Good news, we found a home! However the quest for a house there was not easy, poor Chloe was not wanted by anyone! So sad.. but good news, Drake saved the day for Miss Chloe by pretty much bribing a guy into letting us have the place even though we had a dog. So Chloe better be on her best behavior in this house.

None the less, after a long weekend where Drake and I could have filmed 5 "House Hunter" episodes for HGTV for them, we are happy with our pick and can't wait to get moved. Side note, we can't move in till Nov 8th. Therefore, we have 2 months of craziness ahead of us, but what fun would it be if we have a smooth move! So here is to some crazy travel plans for the next 2 months, and hopefully someone is saying a prayer that I stay calm while I stay back here with the 2 kids by myself! AHHHH

Back to McCoy's first flight! He gets a A+ for sleeping the whole time! Way go Coy Boy! Easton gets unsatisfactory in conduct for the last flight! :( Easton needs improvement!




Side note, the lady at the ticket counter got all fussy because I didn't have a Birth Certificate for McCoy. I told her that we didn't even get one in the mail yet, he was only a month. She could clearly see that McCoy was nowhere close to 2, so why she continued through a fuss about it, I have no idea. Some people! :)

McCoy is 1 month..


Yes, these monthly pictures are back! :) I know you have missed them!

How is it possible that this boy is already a month old! :) Crazy how time flies!

I would love to say that I have all these stats on McCoy, but being that this is the second go around, I am totally ok, with not going to the Doctor on his exact 1 month date, like I always did with Easton. So we are not going till later next week! What I can tell you is that this boy is BIG! I am not a betting girl, but I will put all my money on the fact that this kid is over 10 lbs already! ( Easton didn't reach 10 pounds till he was 2 months.. lol)

McCoy is wearing 3 month clothes and is a great baby! The kid goes down to sleep at 7 and wakes up for his feeds, goes right back to sleep and doesn't wake for the morning till 7! He is pretty mellow and just loves looking around! The kid can go through some diapers as well!

One bad thing about McCoy, he only wants to be held! He doesn't like getting put in swings and bouncers, so we are doing a lot of ergo time! :)

We love you Coy Boy and we are loving getting to know your sweet little personality!

49ER FAN FEST...


Today we went up to Candlestick for Fan Fest. Lucky for Easton his Daddy can get him on the field to play! So we walked around and let Easton play! You would think Easton ran the stadium the way he walks around with such swagger! :) Wait till you see the last picture, and you will see why we don't bring him up to the stadium often!

Little Kaepernick!! :)

Where is McCoy?? He is hiding, but he was there! :)

" My field"

Easton and Daddy

Excuse me mom, I know where to go!

Tried to get a pic with my boys, instead Easton thought he would feed me his brownie! I guess the plus side of this, is that he is sharing! Not something he likes to do!

This is what a 2 year old tantrum looks like! He would not get up! So I left him there!

Just playing together when we got home!

I made it through my first week alone...


You better believe I ended this week with a bottle of wine! :) ( and each night of the week with a glass of wine) 

Easton has been going to DeDe's twice a week since he I finished teaching in November, so I have not had him a full week by myself in a long time! Spoiled, yes I know! Well last week DeDe was on vacation, so for my first week with both boys on my own, I was left with out Miss DeDe who is my save and grace! 5 whole days just the boys and I! ahh.. and on top of that Monday Easton started acting like he didn't feel good, and a Doctors appointment Tuesday confirmed that he was sick! So a sick 2 year old and a 2 week old for 5 days.. now you know why I needed so much wine!

The good news is I made it through, and I even got some pictures too! I am finding that it is very hard to get cute pictures this go around, mainly because getting them both to look at the same time is impossible, and then McCoy is still very bug eyed! His eyes need to stop crossing, or mine might start! :)

Watching morning cartoons!

Nap time!

Daddy time!

All asleep, how come I wasn't???

Went to the pool to watch big brother swim!

McCoy was not a fan of Easton! I know this is not a cute face, but I just love it! He looks so pissed!

Easton wanted to laydown with McCoy! I tried for a cute pic here, but it didn't happen!

Loves looking out the window!

This is the crazy I dealt with all week!




Working on our neck strength!

Hi!

First Presason game...


Here is to the start of football season today... GO NINERS!! ( And as always Go Cowboys)



These two little boys have no idea how lucky they are to experience football they way they get too, hope at least one of them actually likes football when they grow up! ;)

We will soon be saying GO FALCONS! However, we will not be having another kid just to get a picture on the Falcon helmet! :)

Newborn pictures...


Newborn pictures are here! :) They were a bit challenging this time, only because I wanted Easton in them too, but you try to get a 2 year old to follow directions! :)

I am happy with what we got, and I at least got one decent one to frame in the house!
