Father's Day:

Another Father's Day weekend has come and gone. This past weeked feels like a complete blurr. On Friday we had Wes's mom and Jack over for dinner and cards. Fun! Fun! Saturday his dad and Karen over for a Father's Day cookout and on Sunday Presley and I celebrated Wesley with a homemade breakfast. Yum. Presley gave Wes a picture of her and a clay hand print. We both gave Wes a pair of cuff-links and an AWESOME shirt!! We spent Sunday afternoon at my parents house grilling out. Presley was pooped by the time the weekend was over.

Dinnertime Tantrums:

Ok....I don't know if anyone else has experienced this with a 14 month old but Presley is now starting to get really upset during dinner. She is great for breakfast & lunch but when dinner rolls around my sweet darling "life is good" child is nowhere to be found. This just started a little over a week ago. At the beginning of dinner she is "ok" but after about 15 minutes she starts fussing which ends up into a full blown cry/tantrum. The whole time she is trying to get out of her seat. So Wes and I eventually let her down to which she runs to my side of the table and starts trying to climb up my leg while moaning. We have tried moving dinner time up and not letting her snack close to dinner and so far neither have worked. My fingers are crossed that it is just a phase. Other than that she is a great/smart kid.

Yes, dinner time tantrums started a few months ago for us too. They are a little better now, but they are still there unfortunately. And yes, it's only during dinner time. Hopefully they will get over this stage soon!

You guys look like you are doing so great - Presley is getting so big!

Happy Father's Day to Wes!

Hi Stacey... just wanted to let you know you look GREAT in these pictures! I also am so amazed at how much Presley has changed!

As far as the tantrums go... I have no idea (as we aren't parents yet)... but my nephew, Drew, is 2.5 years old and is still throwing them. :-)
