This was a rough week for me. Maddox refused his naps starting on Saturday. He’ll sleep for 20-30 minutes and then wake up. This had been my saving grace since he’s usually a great napper, so I officially broke down and cried yesterday for the first time since having him. Ryan was gone till 9pm and I just didn’t know what to do with M. But I guess that beats last time with Beckham when I’d cry every time Ryan would leave for work…lol! On the plus side, he is FINALLY sleeping through the night. Beckham was quite the little two year old this week also. Since I’ve spent so much time with Maddox, trying to get him to sleep, Beckham has been on his own! You can see what he does when he’s got some free time below!
Day 260: Play date with some of my favorite girls and their kiddos!
Day 261: After I dropped Beckham off at school, Maddox and I hit up Panera and I QUIETLY enjoyed a bagel and coffee! It was a great start to the morning!
Day 262: Bonding! I love looking into his eyes when he feeds. He stares at me the whole time and I love it!
Day 263: We went to the Farmers Market for the first time on Saturday. The first thing we saw was pony rides and Beckham loved it. He got a little scared when the man started walking away, so Ryan walked with him. Let’s just say the fun filled Saturday lasted about as long as this pony ride! Strollers are a bad idea at a small farmers market. Every restaurant was busy that day. And this was the day Maddox started refusing to sleep! But again, on the plus side, I cleaned the heck out of my freezer and fridge AND got my grocery shopping done!
Day 264: On our way to church and we stopped at the donut shop like we always do. B and Ryan go in to grab the donuts and guess who starts crying, because remember he doesn’t nap anymore???? Maddox! So, I turn around and give him a bottle. Which then means we can’t go out to eat afterwards because his bottle is being used now instead of at his regular time…oh joy!
Day 265: On Monday, I was putting Maddox to sleep (or trying to) and I come back out to find Beckham covered in marker. Luckily, it was an Expo marker. Only damage was done to himself! Don’t worry, it gets worse. Keep reading further into this post!
Day 266: Tuesday morning, Beckham found Maddox’s leftover milk from breakfast and decided he needed to eat more. I was pumping and snapped this pic. Maddox was entertained.
More from this week…
Ugh I could just eat that face up!
I love baking with him. This is what I remember from childhood. Licking the spoon and bowl clean!
This kid has blown up this month! #chubs #over15pounds
Hanging out on Friday!
Yep, I really have no words for this!
Expo marker on Monday!
SHARPIE on Tuesday! Y’all he really was proud of drawing on the wall. We’ve already had to deal with this before and REPAINT. I don’t even care anymore. It was on that white board, the walls, his play kitchen, and the carpet. He got in big trouble when daddy got home.
Don’t worry though, he must have forgotten, because he did it AGAIN yesterday! It was Expo, but didn’t come off on his legs in the bath. I’ll have to explain this one to his teachers at school. I didn’t even take a picture of this incident.
Here’s to a new week thank the Lord! I’ll end on a high note…Maddox is 3 months old today! Yay! This was him yesterday. Hopefully I can write his 3 month post soon.

Maddox reminds me of when my daughter was that age. She would not nap more than 20-30 minutes at a time! When she turned one she finally started doing 1-3 hour naps. Hopefully this short nap phase doesn't last long. Love your blog and banana bread!
