Hmmm
January 24, 2012
Really I have no good excuse why it has been over 3 months since I last posted… so here is an attempt at an update. Here are the latest in the monthly pictures of the boys.
Rhys’ first haircut
September 24, 2011
Sweet baby Rhys’ hair was getting out of control! 
He lost most of the baby hair on the sides and in the back and some in the very front, but then the part on the top of his head was growing like crazy! So, with some persuasion from Mark, we cut his hair. Here are some before and after pictures.

Mark did the HyVee Triathlon again this year – his 5th year in a row. He did a great job and we had fun cheering him on!

Potty Training!
September 20, 2011
Yes…potty training! Teag seemed interested in the potty, announced when he was going, and I had a week without very much planned – so we gave it a shot. Teag took to it really well (although the story was different on day 3 when I thought I might pull my hair out) and I think we can say now that he is potty trained. We did the 3 day method when I just followed him around all day and tried to catch him when he started to go and then ran him to the potty. I was exhausted, he was exhausted, but it worked. It took longer than 3 days, but since he was on the young side I expected that.
August

I can’t believe August has already come and gone. I am so behind in posting pictures, so here is a slideshow of some of the fun things we did last month.

Camping Adventure!
September 20, 2011
My awesome sister planned a camping weekend for our families in July. We both love to camp, but with my young kids, were not sure how it would work. So, she planned a camping weekend in her backyard and we had a blast! The weather was rainy, so we spent more time inside than out, so were thankful we were not out at a campground having to brave the weather with a 2 month old! This weekend was the one year anniversary of when my Dad died, so it was the perfect time for us to be together as a family!

4th of July
July 15, 2011
We celebrated the 4th of July with the whole Phillips family at the Williams town celebration. Teag got to be in the parade with Grandpa and his cousins and he ran in his first 4th of July race (he got scared and started to cry 
but he was happy that he got a sucker!) Rhys slept through most of the excitement!

My baby is 2 months old!
July 14, 2011
Wow, how time flies! Rhys is 2 months old and he is now 13 1/2 pounds and 23 1/2 inches long. The skinny little infant that was born in May is now a chunky, adorable little baby. He is smiling, cooing, kicking, and holding his head up pretty well. These three pictures show a little snapshot of his growth – a couple days after he was born, 1 month, and 2 months.

June was a great month – lots of fun getting to know Rhys and learning to be a family of 4!
