Happy 3rd Birthday Parker!

Today my sweet Parker turned three years old. We had a weekend full of celebrating but here's some pictures from his family birthday party last night. We ordered pizza, had a cookie cake with "Daddy's truck" on it and three pink candles (pink is his favorite color-ha!), opened lots of Toy Story presents along with his new soccer goal, and played in the back yard with Peyton and cousin Reese.

I got this idea of all the pictures from my friend, Rachel's blog. It was fun looking back at all his pictures.

Parker,

Happy 3rd Birthday! You bring so much joy into our family. You are so special to us and I'm so proud to be your Momma. I can't believe you are already three. You are growing up so fast. We love you!

8 Weeks Old

Happy 8 Weeks Old to Jack!! (yesterday)

I can't believe my baby is already 8 weeks old. Where has June and July gone? Here are a few things you are doing these days, Jack.

-You are a laid back, happy baby most of the time.

-Love-love-love your swing and this makes Mommy happy. When I can't sooth you, your swings normally does.

-Sleep in our room in a pack n play but we have plans to move you to your room very soon.

-Love to be swaddled at night.

-Most nights you sleep 6 hours, eat, then 3-5 hours more.

-Have slept through the night (8 hours) one time when you were 6 weeks old. (Of course that was the night your Daddy volunteered to help. Wish you would do that for me.) :)

-Love your paci.

-Take a bottle great when you need too.

-Eat about every 3 hours during the day.

-Don't have a real nap schedule yet but most of the time you, eat, play, sleep, in that order.

-You still sleep a lot during the day but each day you are starting to stay awake longer.

-LOVE to watch your brothers play.

-They love to talk and hold you. Most of the time they are gentle but sometimes you think they are a little too rough.

-Most people say you look just like Parker, but Peyton insist you look just like him. :)

-You are quite the little traveler and have been to: Florida, Little Rock, Dallas and Tulsa.

-Been on 4 plane rides and did great on all of them.

Jack, we love you and are so proud of you. You have been the best little baby and fit into our family perfectly!

Swim Ranch

Peyton and Parker went to their second year of Swim Ranch a couple weeks ago. This year Josh got in the pool with Parker -every-single-day! Daddy was such a trooper! During the week of their lessons I still couldn't get in the pool since I just had Jack.

Two of my sweet boys.

I love Parker in his googles-too cute.

Practicing getting out of the pool with Ms. Virgina. She was my swim teacher when I was little too. But he thought it was extra cool that her grandson plays football for Shiloh.

He tried to dog paddle by himself and when he reached the wall and was not a happy boy. But the tears didn't last too long. I think that was the only time he cried all week.

Yea Parker for finishing another year of the Water Babies class!

This year Peyton moved up to Lane One. He's always loved the water but never liked to go under which you do a lot of in lane one. He improved each day even though he was a little scared at times. But by the end of the week he was swimming all by himself without his buoy and even going under water without it bothering him.

Happy boy kicking away.

Learning to swim with no buoy.

High-five from his teacher for swimming all the way down his lane with no buoy!

Peyton we are proud of you and how brave you were this week! You turned into a fish within just a few days!

Jack hung out with me by the pool most days. We were lucky and the weather wasn't too hot for him. Next year he will get a turn at Swim Ranch but for now I'm enjoying him being so little.

Happy Birthday Rick & Wedding Pictures

We wanted to wish my brother a Happy 26th Birthday today! I can't believe my brother is married and about to be in his third year of law school. I couldn't be happier for him. The next couple of pictures were taken a couple nights ago during his early birthday dinner at my parents house. Dad grilled steaks and then we swam in their pool. My boys love hanging out with their Uncle Rick and Aunt Jessica.

Three days before Jack was born my brother married Jessica. I am excited to finally have her as a sister in law. Here are some pictures from their beautiful wedding last month. The boys were the ring bearers. Their wedding was in Conway and my doctor didn't want me to go but I was so happy at the last minute I was able to be there for their special night.

Our last family picture just the four of us but we are so glad that we are a family of 5 now!

I'll leave you with a picture of Jack that was taken last night. I can't believe my baby turned four weeks old this past Tuesday! Where did the month of June go? We are having so much fun with him and thank God daily for him.

Jack Bailey is Here

On June 8th we welcomed Jack Bailey Floyd into our family. He was 8 pounds, 12 ounces and 20 inches long, just perfect! I already can't imagine our family without this sweet little baby being a part of it. Peyton and Parker are beyond thrilled to have a their brother finally here. Peyton loves to hold him and Parker is on "paci patrol" all the time. He also gets plenty of hugs and kisses from them too. So far he has been an easy baby and I hoping it stays that way at least a little longer.

Here's Josh and I with Jack, just a few minutes old during the c-section.

Peyton and Parker surprised me with roses at the hospital....they were so sweet and it melted my heart.

Our new family of 5!

They were excited to finally get to hold Jack.

This is Mrs. Betty at the hospital seeing baby Jack for the first time. We named our Jack Bailey after her late husband. Coach Bailey was Josh's football coach in 6th and 7th grade. This man had great impact on Josh's life. He was one of the reasons Josh went into coaching football. We miss Coach Bailey but know we will see him again in heaven.

Getting Jack ready to come home.

This was taken a few days ago. He was getting over an eye infection that was in his right eye cause by a blocked tear duct. He is feeling all better now.

First time at Chickfila, watching his brothers play on the playground. I think it took me 3 hours before I actually got out the door with all three kids and Josh was even home to help me. But we made it. Ha!

All clean after his first bath.

This was taken yesterday. He is ready for some football!

Jack's new best friend was born just ten days after him, Charlie Barnard (on the right). He's the son of our good friends, Tucker and McKale. These boys are going to have to stick together since they are both the 3rd boys in each of their families.

I'm so blessed to have my boys in my life. It's a little crazy right now but I wouldn't trade it for anything!

Catching Up

I have taken alittle break from blogging for while. It just seems like we've been so busy and when I have a break then I just want to read everyone else's instead. :) Here are some pictures of what we've been up to since April with a baby update at the end.

California! We went with our good friends the Slaughters. It was a blast! The guys had meetings during most of our trip but Angela and I found LOTS of fun stuff to do while they were busy. Here's Josh and I in front of the Hollywood sign.

While we were in California Peyton had his end of the "Love Bug" program for K4. I hated to miss it but I was able to watch it live on the school's website. Peyton was in charge of the Christian flag pledge. He said his lines super fast but it got the job done and his Mama was proud. His teacher also presented him with the "hardworking" award at the end of the program. He's had a wonderful year at school and we have LOVED his teacher! I can't believe he's already completed his first year of K4 and how well he has done

My friends gave baby Jack and and I the sweetest baby shower at my sister in law's house. It was so much fun and Jack got so many cute things.

The shower was outside under the sunset on Meredith's new patio. It was perfect. I am so blessed to have these sweet girls as my friends.

Peyton attended Shiloh's youth football camp and had a ball! Parker didn't get to participate so he hung out by the water bottles and would give the older kids, high fives and knuckles during their water breaks. Poor guy, it's tough being the younger brother at times. This is Peyton waiting his turn to do one of the drills.

A few weeks ago Peyton's class had bike day at school. Savvy and Peyton were ready to take off riding in this picture.

Best buds taking a break for popsicles.

The very last day of school was last Thursday. It was Field Day so they had with lots of water activities for the kids. Here is Peyton all soaking wet having fun with water guns.

Parker also had a wonderful year at school! I can't believe how much he's change in the last year. His teachers put on a cute end of the year program for the parents. Here's Parker and cousin Reese singing their songs for us. They were precious! We are so proud of you Parker!!

Peyton skipped a few minutes of class to come watch his brother's program.

It's so hard to get a decent family picture these days with our two crazy boys but I'm sure it's about to get even harder when baby Jack comes along. At least everyone was looking at the camera, that hardly ever happens anymore.

Speaking of baby Jack. This coming Tuesday is my scheduled c-section! I am so excited and we are all very ready to meet him. It's been so fun listening to the the boys talk about having a baby in the house again. I can't wait to see what he will look like. Peyton and Parker looked nothing a like when they were born. My doctors have told me they are surprised that he still isn't here. They were predicting that he would be here by my 37th week due to his big size, being a third child and having a previous brother born at 36 weeks. However, Jack has been holding out to make his grand entrance into the world in God's perfect timing. Check back soon for more baby updates and pictures!

Happy 30th Birthday Josh!!

I know I've been slacking on my blog lately but I couldn't miss posting about Josh's big birthday. He turns 30 today but we started celebrated it last night. I surprised him with a dinner at Noodles with his closest friends and family. I'm so glad that we were all able to pull it off together and actually be able to surprise him! He had no idea everyone was going to be there until we showed up at the restaurant. It was a fun night out. Tonight we will celebrate again, this time with our boys. They are SO excited about their Daddy's birthday today.

Josh, I am so blessed to have you as my husband and my best friend. I'm thankful to God placing you in my life. Thank you for ALL you do for the kids and I. We are so proud of you. Happy 30th Birthday babe! I love you more than you'll ever know!!

Below are some pictures from last night.

We missed Jeana, Josh's Mom, at the party because she is caring for her Mom in Texas this week who just had surgery. Please be in prayer for Josh's grandma.
