Avalanche Warning

Two days after Christmas is Kasie Marie's birthday. Since she turned 25 this year, we decided to get together to celebrate. Our plan was to head up to Mt. Charleston, go sledding, and then come back home to a nice big pot of chili. Unfortunately, there was an avalanche warning on the mountain. Instead, we had a game night. Kelli and Eddie came over early to help make chili, and cupcakes for Kasie. While they were there, we exchanged Christmas gifts. I got some of my blue kitchen accessories I've been dreaming about. I'm SoOo ExCiTeD to collect them all. They brought Grace a stuffed puppy named Violet that learned her name and teaches her how to spell it.  Violet also knows that Grace's favorite food is sweet potatoes, and her favorite color is pink. She loves it! She especially likes to ride with Violet in her wagon: When Kasie and Jeremy arrived, we sang Happy Birthday, and Kasie made a wish. Then, Gracie opened her presents from Uncle Larry ...

Squishes and Kisses {3 Months}

Baby Brother is three months old! That's one quarter of his first year already. He's really a happy baby. He's always kicking his little legs and is smiling more and more every day. He only cries if he's hungry, and you've ignored the previous five minutes of him grunting and yelling "meh!". I like to think he's really trying to yell "ma!".

The Smiliest Guy {Seven Months Old}

Our little smiley guy is seven months old today. We're on the downhill slope to his first birthday, and I'm not sure I'm ready for it. I'm not going to lie. I couldn't wait for him to get to this age. Isaac was so paranoid about every sound and movement the baby made after his first boy was born, that he had me paranoid, too. First, we were worried that he wasn't making eye contact. Then he wasn't smiling. Then he didn't laugh out loud. I remember thinking when he was teeny tiny that I couldn't wait for him to be bigger, so I knew that he was OK. Well, guess what? He's just fine and does all of those things plus more. He also tries to talk to us in long sing-song noises, but he hasn't made any distinct mama or dada sounds just yet.  This big boy can sit up on his own now, which is so fun. He loves to sit on the floor and play with his toys, and he lights up when you call him "big boy". When he's on his belly on ...
