What's New!!!

Brylee started preschool this year. She loves it. She tells me she has new boyfriends and loves to sit by them in class. I know, watch out she is starting out young. Brylee is also doing gymnastics. She does tricks all over the house now.


Brylee was waiting for her dad to come home from work. She decided to hide from him in our linen closet. I went downstairs to do some laundry and when I came back I found her sleeping in there. When kids get tired enough they can sleep anywhere.


Gage is 6 months and crawling everywhere. He is still a little fatty, but getting around good. He loves to stick out his tongue.

Labor Day Weekend

This past weekend was a blast. The boys went hunting, but missed everytime they got a chance to shoot, and the girls played with kids. Hunter and Brylee played really good with each other. Gage just wanted to get down and play.

Gage loves the red vines

The Kids

This is the only picture we got of the two kids. When we would say smile, Brylee would just cry. She didn't want her picture taken.
Brylee is a great big sister. She is a big helper. I think we are both excited to have her go to preschool this year.
Gage is 4 months. He is rolling over and is starting to sit by himself. It is amazing how fast they grow up.

First Bath

I really did give Gage his first bath last week, I am just slow at posting some pictures. He loved it. Brylee has been a great big sister and has helped with all his baths.

It's a Boy!!!

On March 2, 2011 we welcomed our new little boy, Gage into the Southwick family. He came at 1:55 pm, weighed 8 lbs 3 oz, 19.5 inches long. Yep big boy. It only took 3 pushes and he was out. Thank heavens.
Brylee loves him so much. I don't even know how many kisses and hugs he has recieved from her. She is a good big sister, and at times so much help for mom.
We took all the right after delivery pictures with my mom's camera and I haven't gotten them from her yet, so this is what you get.
He is doing good so far, we love him so much!!!

DeAnne and Natalie

Alright this is for DeAnne and Natalie. They have been giving me crap for not doing anything with my blog since before christmas.
I am a fat pregnant lady who is trying to wait patiently for this little boy of mine to come out. Come on any day. Sooner than later. I promise I will post pictures when he comes, until then don't expect anything.

Ginger Bread Houses

When Shane was gone hunting, my family had pie night. Each one of our families will make a pie, then we vote on who made the best pie. Layne sure tried hard, but his didn't work out. He brought it all still running. After we each pies, we make ginger bread houses. Brylee helped for about 10 min and then I did the rest. It was still fun, even with out our dad!!!
