Reed Bradley 3months old

Wow I know I said this about Reed turning 2 months old but really, come one where does time go? My sweet little boy is already a 1/4 way through his first year of life! And when I say sweet little boy I sure do mean sweet little boy. He is such a good happy baby!!

He is now sleeping a solid 12-12.5 hours every night! Usually at this point I would get him on the same schedule with the older kids 7pm-7am but we've put him on the 9pm-9:30am schedule and it works great for so many reason. 1st off, in the morning I get 2.5 hours with the older kids to get breakfast, bible time and some school time done with them before he wakes up. Then at night Jeff and I can spend some alone time with just Reed with no distractions. I'm hoping we can keep this schedule up to a year then switch him to the kids schedule.

Here's what his new schedule looks like!

9:30 I go wake him up (there have been morning when i wake him up at 9:00 and even 10:00)
9:30-10:30 feed and a wake time
10:30-11:30 Nap (sometime i run the store during this time so he naps in his seat)
11:30 I pump and load him up to get to the gym
12:00-12:30 Gets a bottle at the gym (this allows me to not be rushed at the gym and get a good workout in)
12-2 hangs out at the gym, awake time and nap time (I'm really laid back during this time)
2-3 naps
3:00- feeding
3:30-6:00 most time stays awake
6:00 feeding
6:30-8:00 a wake time
8:00-9:00 naps
9:00 feeding
9:30 bed time

Here are all the kids at three months!!

A month of catching up

A month has passed and I haven't blogged! There is so much to catch up on.

Avin went Rock Climbing with Jeff for the first time a couple weeks ago at Vertical Excape. They had such a great time. He is really excited to take both boys this coming weekend.

Rock Climbing

Reed and I went on a business trip with Jeff for 5 days to Columbus Ohio. The boys stayed with my mom and Cooper stayed with Ashley. It was like all of us got separate vacations.

We got ice cream every night

Jeff's on a billboard

Starting 10.10.10 we will be part of planting a new church called onelife. We are excited and sad at the same time. Jeff has gone to Bethel Temple his whole life. I've been going since 1997. Bethel is where Jeff and I met. It's sad that we will be leaving but we are excited about what God is doing at OneLife and excited to see how He will use us there.
