Yo Yo Daddio!

I know that Kaeden is probably not going to appreciate these pictures when he is older, but we thought it was pretty cute. I love when they are this little and you can dress them in whatever you want. If you look closely you can see that his calves are fat enough that the socks are stretched to the limit.

Cousins

This weekend Anamarie and the kids were in town visiting. Miles came over to play with Avery for a little while. Avery needed a bath so we threw Miles in there with him.

We also decided that Avery needed a haircut and Miles got one too today. Use the bath tub pictures for the before and here are the afters.

Avery and Miles had so much fun playing together this weekend!! We love him!

My little character

Here are some pictures of Mr. Avery. He is such a character and always keeps us laughing. In a couple of the pictures he is in the pack-n-play pushing up against the mesh.

My little bug

Here are some updated pictures of my little Kaeden. Although, I don't know that you could really call him small anymore!! He has become quite the cute little chunk :)

Flashback!!

I saw this on a friend's blog and thought it was cool. There is a website that you can go to to find out what the number one song was for any given day. I went and found out what was the most popular song on my date of birth - " I love rock and roll" By Joan Jett and the Blackhearts. I thought it was fun to find out. Let me know what yours is!!

17 months!!

I can hardle believe that 17 months ago today, I had just had my first baby!! I can't believe how much he has grown and changed over the past months. I thought he grew fast over the first year, but the past 5 months he has really turned into a little boy and not a baby. He is now running, and climbing on everything!! He loves to read books, he will sit in the bouncy chair (which he weighs to much for) and read his books. He is also learning to talk - he says hi, bye, and bear. He has also learned a ton of animal noises. Even though we have our rough days, every morning when I wake up I say a quick prayer to thank Heavenly Father for the wonderful child that he has blessed me with. I am so grateful for Avery and the joy he brings to my life.

Update

It has been a little while since I have been able to put up any posts. This is because the motherboard went out on my computer and we had to send it for repairs. Anyway, there have been some changes in our family. Todd lost his job a couple of weeks ago, so we are currently looking for new employment for him. We are not sure what field he is going to go into right now. he has finally made a decision that he wants to go back to school to study history. But we don't know if we are going to stay here to do that, or if we will be moving away. I am doing alright, nothing to big to report right now. lol. Avery and Kaeden are doing wonderfully!! As you will see in the following posts. Avery is getting very tall!! He is currently 27lbs and 32ins. I can't believe that he is almost old enough for nursery!! He looks very much like a toddler now, not a little baby anymore! Kaeden is doing really good too! He is a little chunk! Although, he is smaller than Avery was at his age. He is currently 14lbs 10oz and 24in. I love what a chunk he has become. lol. He is giggling and smiling all the time now. Avery is still babbling quite a bit, but every now and then he says a clear word. It is great to watch him learning and growing. Although our life is a litte stressful, I am so grateful for all of my blessings. The Lord will take care of us and I know that if we keep doing what we are supposed to be doing, we will be okay. Love you all!
