Growing

Nolan is growing like a weed these days. I had him weighed on Tuesday and he was 12lbs 3 oz at 5 weeks old. I was worried that I wasn't producing enough cause he seemed to want to eat all the time, but now I"m not concerned anymore. He doesn't seem that big, but I laid him next to his cousin, Isabella, who is about 8weeks older and he is the same size if not bigger then her. Granted she is a girl and kind of petite and cute, but still!! My sis in law has said I have turbo milk.. hehe.. As long as my bubba is growing we are happy.

We survived another week of swimming lessons. Ellie passed bubblers 2 and will have bubblers 3 next year. She loves to swim and is getting used to going under the water. They had the option of putting on a life vest and jumping off the board too. Ellie went twice by herself. She didnt' want anyone catching her or helping her swim. At least she will know how to swim when she is her daddy's age, since he doesn't.

This weekend is the 4th of July. We like to go to a family friends house to watch a fireworks show and have some yummy food. I'm a little nervous about taking Nolan there with the loud fireworks, but if nothing else I'll sit in the car with him so its not so loud.
I'm hoping we aren't in for a weekend with sick kids tho.. tonight Ellie complained about a sore throat. I took her temp and it was 100 and her tonsils were huge. I'm not sure if they are always that way, but I didn't see any white spots, so hopefully in the morning she will be better.

Sunday is our Pastors last day of preaching in our church. We are very sad to see him go, but it sounds like God has a big plan for him in his next church. I pray God uses them and helps find our church a new pastor that will continue to grow our church family.

I pray everyone has a safe and fun 4th of July weekend!!
