OU / Texas weekend

Mommy and her little Boomer Sooners fans! Outfits are courtesy of Grandma Franks.

smocked cutie!

I dressed up our little cutie in her smocking outfit for church the other day. We're just so in love with our little doll! Many more smocking days to come for her future!!


Rice cereal!

A couple of weeks before Carmen turned 4 months old, I just knew she was ready for rice cereal. She had all the signs. I called the doctor and got the go ahead. Sure enough, Carmen took it like a pro!

Who Who

I've Got a Feeling
Originally by The Black Eyed Peas now sung by Roman Franks


We better go ahead and sign this little guy up for the X Factor! He's our singing star! Ha ha! He knows the whole verse! I'm kind of worried that my boy is singing, "I've got my money, let's spend it up"! Just sayin!

Jesus loves me

Jesus loves me

It really doesn't get much cuter than this!

Carmen is three months old

Our little nugget turned three months old on September 22nd. I can't believe it! We've made it through the hardest part. She's weighing around 15-1/2 lbs! Carmen wears mostly 6 month clothes and a size 3 diaper. She nurses on average 6 times a day. Carmen is such a great baby now that we've got her on a schedule. She hardly cries because everything is predictable in her life. We eat, play, and then sleep every three hours. She loves to watch brother Roman and loves her mommy. It's amazing to see how she recognizes me now! Most nights Carmen will go to bed around 9:30-10 pm and wake up around 7:30-8 am. Once in a while she'll still wake up around 4:30am for a feeding. We're almost there! She smiles and laughs all the time. Carmen's favorite pastime is listening to mommy and daddy sing to her and laugh at them!

family jogging

Matt was here all last week and the weather was a little (tiny) bit cooler, so we spent almost every morning at the park. We found a beautiful trail by our house that is wooded (shaded) and ends at a playground. It was so fun to run together with the dog and jogging stroller. The only problem came when it decided to start raining once we got to the playground! Matt had to run back with Carmen in tow and pick Roman and me up in the car. It was such a great morning!
