Boys & Sticks

Hey is such a boy, there is always a stick in hand. He is either whipping it through the water, shooting it like a bow, or whacking every little thing we walk past with it. I remember hiking with this kid and we would have to take turns carrying him or throwing him on our shoulders. Today he walked about four miles on his own. Completely on his own, jogged up ahead of us, had a positive attitude and loved every minute of it. Can't believe he is growing up so fast.

Baby Love

I could just stare at this child all.day.long.

Baby Girl

Can not believe this sweet little girl is almost 10 months old. Slow down time.

9 Months

Happy 9 months Miss Gray. This month has been a productive one. You are pulling yourself up on everything. You say "hi" and "dada" and give me kisses when I ask for them. I can't believe how fast you are growing. You love playing with your big brother and I am so very thankful he is patient with you. You are so very happy and up for anything. My favorite thing this month is when I pick you up and you lay your head down on my shoulder and sigh. I am so very thankful for the past 9 months with you at home. Watching you grow has been so fun. Love you to the moon sweet girl.

My Babies

Gosh dang I love this life I live. SO grateful for all the love I am given by these two. Had an amazing day hiking at my favorite place here and enjoyed some much needed outdoors and small adventuring.

Mother's Day

All I wanted for Mother's Day was a picture of the four of us drawn by Ryder. I woke up to this adorable picture and it couldn't be more perfect. I am so very blessed to have these two sweeties call me mom. Love this life I live. Happy Mother's Day out there.

Trouble

This is her my mom just told me no because I am trying to climb out of the tub and I don't know if I should cry or smile at her face.

Sunlight & Babies

It has rained and rained and rained here. Don't get me wrong if you know me, you know I hibernate and I love it. But to see this sunlight come through the windows feels amazing. Miss Gray found her spot in the light and she has been playing there also.

Best Friends

Grandma got her a new little bunny doll for Easter and she loves her. She carries her with her and snuggles her soft face. She has a new best friend and I don't hate this cuteness. :)

After Bath Giggles

She is such a ham. It is fun to see the differences between her and Ryder as babies. She is adventurous and over eager. She will giggle when she senses what is coming. She loves to be in the middle of it all and can be fearless but cautious at the same time.

Bubbles

I am not sure but I think sleeping babies and bath time babies are the just about the cutest forms of babies. :) This little peanut is so dang cute when she is naked and wet and splashing. Bath time usually consists of 87 towels on the floor because girlfriend is constantly kicking all the water out like it is her job. She would spend hours in the tub just looking around and splashing.

Quiet Time

He is so amazing with his little sister, but that quiet time after she goes to bed is very much needed.
