Winter break highlights

So I'm going to pretend like it hasn't been 7 months since I posted last, and put this little highlight video here from our recent beach trip and act like it's totally normal... you too? K, thanks ☺️

Three months.

Three months with Paxton and it just keeps getting better. I feel like all the boys have really started coming alive at this stage.. they start smiling and trying to talk and you start getting little glimpses of their personality! I love it 💙 We spent time at the lake with friends, two weeks of …

Two months

Paxton's second month brought lots of excitement... The official start of summer, Justin winning the STATE title in baseball!!!!! a week at Gigi and Papas meeting all 14 of his cousins on my side, and lots of brother snuggles 💙 we also had his 2 month well check -- a perfect report from the doctor …

one month

I figured since I finally posted Paxton's birth I should go ahead and do his monthly updates too. The first month of his life was pretty much insane. Justin was at the peak of his baseball season.... and by peak I mean in the first 11 days of Paxton's life he had 8 games. Maddox …

Paxton’s birth

Paxton Ford Mills -- born April 16 {Easter Sunday} at 5:33pm weighing 7lbs 10oz and 20.5 inches long. His birth went pretty much exactly how I wanted it to go, but it also stretched me and grew me in ways I didn't expect. Here's a not-so-short recap of sweet Paxton's birthday... I woke up around …

Waco!

So, unless you've been living under a rock the last few years, you know Chip and Joanna Gaines and their empire in Waco, Texas, the Silos.
