Barefoot in the Park

I have been wanting to take the boys outdoors here at FLW to snap some pictures of them together. We headed out after breakfast and I had two cooperative boys for about 10 minutes! Enough for me to capture these precious memories...








Wyatt-2 1/2 Elias-7 months

I am amazed everyday at how beautiful they are...

Our Louisiana Home!

Well, the time has come for The Layfield's to move again:) Next stop...Fort Polk, LA on September 28th! This will be our new home! We are so excited to have a gorgeous 2098 sq.ft. ranch style house on 5.5 acres!

Laissez Les Bon Temps Roulez!

Rolling over!

Elias is officially in the "rolling over club"! As of last week, he rolls all over the place. He is 7 months old now and I just can't believe how big he has gotten. He loves to eat, jump in his jumpy, and be held! He smiles all the time and it just lights up the room. He has been eating oatmeal, peas, carrots, apples, pears, and bananas. From the time Wyatt started eating solid foods, I made everything homemade. I have ordered some new storage containers and am really looking forward to having actual baby food storage containers instead of the ice cube tray method;) (which works fine, really)


Eli's first feeding!





I am finally on the last leg of Wyatt's first scrapbook! 2 1/2 years later;) I LOVE IT!! Not that I am that talented, by any means, but to have a book where it is all laid out and colorful, takes me back to all the sweet memories of my baby. I just can't get over the precious gift God blessed me with. Both Elias and Wyatt. I can't believe how time flies....Wyatt will be 3 in October:( Here are a few of my favorites:










Looking forward to a calmer weekend this weekend! We have been going non-stop lately (which has been great) but I think we are due for some time around the house! It's about to get crazy around here, again, with the move and the weddings we have to attend!

Hope everyone has a great weekend!

5 year Anniversary Weekend!

This was a much needed, AMAZING weekend! Our 5 year anniversary was June 10th however, this concert wasn't until July 30th, so he planned for my inlaws to come out and stay with the boys! My sweet husband is always surprising me with things and this was by far an awesome one! He gave me and entire homemade "book" of our plans for this weekend. We started out early Saturday morning-top off on the jeep and a run by Starbucks!:) (I don't think we have a trip that doesn't start with that:)) We had a beautiful 3 hour drive to Kansas City and the Sheraton Hotel. We arrived and stopped in to drop off our stuff.

Then we headed out to do some shopping and eat lunch before the afternoon stuff started. We found an awesome shopping area and a delicious sushi restaraunt! After a light lunch, we went back and changed for the concert!!!! ZAC BROWN BAND, KENNY CHESNEY, AND BILLY CURRINGTON! a-mazing!!!!! We have seen Kenny in concert before, and he was amazing! But this was our first ZBB concert and incredible doesn't even describe it! I have never seen a band play the fiddle and guitar than they do! The concert started at 515 and we left about 1045! We got to hear all the songs we wanted, and got out with NO traffic! Our seats were on the 12th ROW of the Chiefs stadium!!! PEFECTION. As hot as it has been in Missouri, we were completely covered by shade and had an amazing time! We had a "midnight snack" on our way to the hotel and slept all night...WITH NO INTERRUPTIONS;) I missed my boys so so much, but when I woke up at 845 and had slept peacefully all night, I felt so much better! I forgot what it felt like to sleep through the night. The last time was before Eli was born. 845 is LATE for us. Weston is usually up at 4 am and I am usually awake between 545 and 6! So, an amazing night it was.

On our way home, as if my husband hadn't pampered me enough...he found a SUPER Target with a Starbucks!! BONUS POINTS:) Then we had another fun ride home together!

Weston, words cannot express my love for you. Happy 5 years, Baby! Our 10 year anniversary since we started dating is on the 13th of this month! I cannot believe it! The BEST 10 years of my life! Thank you to my amazing in-laws for keeping the boys! We are so blessed to have you both! And Wyatt and Elias love you so much, Gi and Gandaddy;)

Love,
RL
