Just thought I'd write a little bit about what's been going on here with the kiddos. They are totally sleeping in the same room now! It was a super easy transition! I didn't think I could handle not getting my nap time break in the middle of the day. Keeping Alex up and having Addison sleeping in his room just wasn't working for me. So, I tried putting Addison in there with Alex for nap. She almost does better in there. It's like she likes sleeping in his room and he likes having her in there! I was shocked! Alex doesn't really want a whole lot to do with her but he wants her to sleep in his room. LOL! He still doesn't sleep a whole lot when he's in his room for nap time but it doesn't seem to bother Addison. We tell him to be quiet when she's in there and she sleeps right through him playing.
This last Sunday Nathan had off so we decided to go out to the farm and meet up with mom, dad, and Jilli. It was a lot of fun! Alex is getting really good with his fishing pole. I put sunscreen on me and both the kiddos and they were perfectly fine but I got burnt! I put it on myself and I guess couldn't reach very far on my back. So, I have a goofy half burnt back with finger outlines. Mom and Jilli also got burned super bad! glad I put a lot of suncreen on the kids! Oh ya, I can't forget to mention our little cannibal baby. Addison likes to chew on anything and everything right now. I would be holding her standing up and all she would want to do is chew on my shoulder and neck. When I passed her off to Jillian she did the same thing to her. Feels really funny! After the Johnsons left to go to a graduation party, we Mercys fished a while longer. I wish we could have gotten a picture cause I think it would have been pretty cute. We were all standing on the dock fishing. Nathan took Addison for me in the baby carrier so I could fish too. We were pulling fish out one after another! That was fun! I even took a fish off my own hook! We also got a bite on plankton on the end of Alex's fishing pole! I was playing around with it casting it out and a fish was really pulling on it and came out of the water with it but let go way before I got it out. It was so shocking and really funny!
We have Alex's 3 yr checkup the end of this week. I'm kind of nervous because I've gotten such a hard time from them before for being underweight. Anyway, I'd appreciate prayer that they won't give me a hard time about him being small and that he's at a healthy weight.

Sounds like you guys had a fun time on Sunday! And you took a fish off your hook, wow! I don't know if I'd do that... I'm so proud of you Jenny :) . Glad the kids didn't get burnt! That would not have been fun for anyone. Good job with the sunscreen, yo.
Glad Alex was cool with Addison being in his room! Hayley couldn't wait for Ada to move into her room to make it "the girls' room". It's funny what those babies can sleep through, isn't it! They probably just used to their loud older siblings. Sometimes Hayley does good at being quiet when I ask her to be around Ada, and sometimes, not so much :) .
My second to last sentence needs an "are" in there, my bad.
Will pray about the Dr. appt.!
Sounds like you had a great time fishing!
That is great that the kids sleep in the same room now!
That must be frustrating going to the doctor. Sean has always been somewhat underweight for his height, but he is healthy and they have thankfully never given me a hard time about it. Just remember you are the mom and you know what is best for your kids! Good luck! I will keep you in my prayers.
I'm sure the Dr. appointment will be just fine...he's little, but he's also healthy, no worries!
My back hurts so bad I have scabs and all the skin is peeling off and it itches so bad. I went out and bought spray on sunscreen two days ago.
