How can I not blog?

How could I quit blogging? I have so much to say!
Since I'm writting a book soon I'm not going to give much medical detail anymore or anything like that, yall will have to wait ;) but I will keep updating about Willie and the family. I have so many readers that are almost like family, I can't hardly just quit ya! 
So here's a little update- 
Willie is 7 weeks old, 8 weeks Saturday :(. Time is flying entirely too fast! At 6 weeks he was 10lbs 14oz and 22 inches. Hims a big boy like his daddy. He's eating like a horse and such a happy baby. His likes and dislikes consist of... 
Likes; 
Riding
Outside
Fourwheelers
Trees
Snuggling
Being sang/talked to
All the attention
Swinging 
Tummy time
Music (especially Hank Wiliams Jr. & Led Zepplin)
His paci 
MILK! (Formula)
Dislikes;
Pooping

So as you can see, hes a pretty happy baby! He wakes up one time in the night about 3-4am and sleeps till 7 and will sleep pretty much however long I let him lol. I'm pretty sure he's hitting a growth spurt because he's sleeping SO much more than usual, never seems to be full anymore and is growing like a weed. 

Other exciting news- 
WE MET THE WESTLAKE FAMILY TODAY! 
Since they vaca near two hours from Arkansas during the summer, they stopped in to visit on the way back home. Meeting Brenna was amazing! She definately shocked me at how active she was and how she had such a big personality, shes so sweet! I'm not really sure what I expected though? She was definately a mommy & daddys girl and woudn't even think about letting me or Curt hold her but hey, can ya blame a girl?! Atleast she aint gonna go to a stranger! haha 

I was SO nervous all night last night and this morning. Possibly more nervous than on my wedding day. Ridiculous, huh? Everything went great though! Evan and Courtney are so down to earth and Connor was PRECIOUS! Taught me that the "stool" next to the chair was an autimin NOT a stool, that Curt could NOT fit in his sandels and that he's give us Brenna if we'd let him have a toy truck (fair trade, right?). He made me laugh so much! We even went outside and played catch while Brenna took a bath! 

I hated them leaving and I'm pretty sure I'm gonna work on convincing them to move to Arkansas. Worth a try! hahaha. We figured out Illinios is only 6hrs away from here so we'll definately go see them soon. I doooo love road trips!  Brenna and Willie LOVED each other, Brenna would try to hold Wills hand and willie would smiiiiile big. Thinking SOMEONE has a crush (Willie)!
