A FUN WEEK

Last Wednesday we went down to Corvallis to visit Cousin Beau, Tarah & Brodie on our way to the MacDonald Ranch. We picked up some American Dream pizza in Corvallis for lunch ( the best pizza!) to help feed the busy new parents. Beau has been a bit colicky. Beau has some acid reflux problems but has been put on medication that has been helping. Tarah looks amazing and is the most wonderful new mom. Brodie is a very hands on Dad who is doing a great job.

Gwynn really wanted to cuddle and hold Beau. She really likes her new cousin. It was so sweet to see Gwynn and Payton interact with there new cousin. I got a lot of good cuddle time in too. I rocked Beau for a good hour or two before Charlie pulled me out the door to head south.

Payton and Beau are six months apart.....Payton was already trying to pick on him! We had a great time out at the ranch this past weekend. It was so much fun to watch Gwynn having a blast. She absolutely loves her PaPa Eddie and Grandma Gale. Everything she did from brushing her hair to going potty PaPa Eddie was the first to know! She also had to know where he was at all times. She still keeps asking me if we can go to PaPa Eddies and ride the motorcycle( four wheeler) and the tractor to feed the cows. We also spent some time walking and trowing sticks into the stream. She would help herself to putting on her red boots and coat and head outside all by herself...she couldn't get enough of being out side on the ranch!
Gwynn played so hard she would fall asleep anywhere in the house. Gwynn & Payton also got to play with some of her cousins who taught her hide and seek( she asks me all day to play with her...I think she gave up on me and has moved on to Moxie). We also had a wonderful Mexican meal while in Myrtle Creek to celebrate Gail's birthday. It was nice to be on a mini vacation with no cooking or cleaning. The ranch can be a great place to relax and read a good book. I also had fun chatting with Gale and her children and there families. There are lots of kids so Gwynn had a blast! It was so fun to watch both Gwynn and Payton have such a great time and the MacDonald Ranch.

Baby Khole the newest addition to the Westbrook family..she is so beautiful and tiny. She is only two weeks old! Her mom also looks amazing with a new mom glow.

Gwynn had her first class this term for dance and was moved up a class to be with the older girls. She did great! If you can't tell Gwynn is annoyed I am trying to take her picture...come on Mom lets go to dance!!!
