back to reality

so, obviously we've made it home from our utah trip.

home from 6 weeks of bliss!

it's taken me nearly 2 weeks to get caught up with cleaning, laundry, yard work, bills, and just

getting back into the groove of everything.

like taking care of two kids by myself kind of groove (:

first week home i did pretty well, only having a couple melt downs when layla would beg

me to go to grandma shellie's and play with buster. made her and i both homesick for utah.

but home is where the heart is, and since my Lance is in mississippi, that's where we belong.

For now.

mr. marx is growing way to fast.

he'll be 5 months old in a few days and i can hardly believe it.

he cut his first bottom tooth on the 21st and his second tooth on the 22nd.

it was a sad couple days.

only wanting his momma and not sleeping to great.

he's also starting to roll all over the place.

here he is in action...

and he's getting pretty used to his big sis doing stuff like sitting on him.

poor fella.

layla has been hilarious as usual.

her favorite things right now are playing house and combing my hair.

while playing house, she's usually the mom and i'm usually the "daughter."

she'll sling a purse on her shoulder and say, "i'll be right back daughter, i have to go to the doctor!"

and her little stories are endless.

i love that you just never know what's going to come out of her mouth.

for example...

when she returned back to the south with her daddy, she found her beloved uncle greg

and aunt mimi.

she says, "uncle greg?"

he says, "yes layla?"

she says, "i love you."

he says, "i love you too."

she then says, "uncle meme?" (instead of aunt)

she says, "yes layla?"

layla says, "i love uncle greg."

instead of, i love you too.

we all got a kick out of that.

i just love these two (:
