4 Months

My baby girl.

She was 4 months on Feb. 27 and life with her is still super sweet! She is ALWAYS smiling and has now started laughing out ... makes for super sweet moments.

One of her favorite things to do right now is sitting in her bumbo chair & watching Slade play. Her face just lights up when watching him and he just has to say one word to her which brings the biggest smile to her face! :)

I believe the teething process has also started which is always hard & sad. She has started eating less, screaming out of the blue, and spitting up a little. The past 2 days have been a little tough for her but she has still been a little trooper! Her favorite thing right now is gnawing on those little fingers.

It's always those three! :)

I just LOVE these little hands!

Snow!

So we have spent the last 2 days freezing outside but having so much fun! It has been extremely special watching the snow falling and covering the ground because it has made Slade so happy! I couldn't wait for him to wake up Thursday morning! His 1st time to really ever experience snow and it was priceless! One of the many reasons I enjoy being a mommy! Makes every thing a little more special! :)

Snow Day #1

Slade became very good friends with Sam, the snowman. :) After getting ready for bed while I was putting him down he asked "where's Sam" I told him Sam was outside and he then replied "I want to give him a hug" It's going to be a sad day when Sam melts away! :(

Talking to Sam

One of my favorites!

Our backyard ... so pretty!

Snow Day #2

We spent the day at my moms house playing out in the snow ... Slade & Jeff just can't get enough of it! :) Honour and I like to stay inside where it's nice and warm! :)

Playing with Aunt Summer in the snow.

... and of course it wouldn't be any fun without cars :)

But we just couldn't leave Honour out completely! She had to take her 1st pictures in the snow and might I add she is wearing the same hat that Slade wore his 1st snow day!

Mom, Slade & Honour ... I Love them so much!

We will all be sad when all the snow has melted away and we see no more white but we have made some wonderful memories and have had a great time! Thank you Lord for the snow! :)

3 mo. & the BIG bed ...

Yep, that's right 3 mo.! I can't believe it ... where did my little baby go? Honour has brought SO much more joy & happiness to our family! We are now blessed with double and loving every minute of it! I told my mom how amazing it was that you can LOVE two kids SO much! I remember talking to my mom one day after having Slade and saying how can I ever love another as much as I love him? Well, it happened! :)

Honour is a really good baby, happy and always smiling! I do have to admit though a little more demanding than Slade ever was but that's okay! :) It's crazy how two kids can be so different! She has the most amazing personalty and keeps us laughing all the time. We just love her to pieces!

That face just melts my heart!

... and now Slade has moved into his "big boy bed" I was so nervous about it because I was afraid that he would get down and not stay in his bed. It just seemed like a lot for a little guy to take in ... stay in your bed, sleep on your pillow, and stay under the covers. Slade was all over his baby bed and so I had lots of concerns but he's done GREAT! Such a big boy and it was so cute the first night watching him on the monitor tuck himself in and cover up! My little boy is growing up way too fast! :(

1st night

Then the other day I heard Slade in his room "no cry Yoda" I was busy in the living room when he came walking out saying "shh, Yoda's nite-nite" he had turned his noise maker on, pulled back the covers tucked Yoda in and turned off the light. Too cute...

Yoda, all tucked away! :)

Dentist

This morning I took Slade to the dentist for the first time. The dentist is a big thing for our family, ha! I know, I'm crazy but I'm all about clean teeth. I've been brushing Slade's mouth before he even had teeth and people would laugh at me! :) Well, it paid off!

Great report from the doctor ... healthy teeth, great overbite and no cavities! Also, the doctor was amazed at how well Slade did for (2). He said it's very rare that a 2 yr. old makes it through the whole procedure. Great job son!

He was waiting for them to start and looks a little nervous.

Getting his teeth cleaned.

All done! Isn't he just a cutie! :)

Dallas Cowboys

Well, Saturday was the first playoff game and we were actually there! =) The stadium was packed, 92,000 attended and the place was on fire! It was an amazing atmosphere! Jeff and I are huge Dallas Cowboys fans and we were also able to take our great friends along for the fun!

The boys played great ... praying we will pull it off again Sunday!

The famous "star"

They were SO happy we won!

We had a great time! :)

Merry CHRISTmas!

October...

Well, October was a pretty busy month...

Slade turned 2 on Oct. 13! :( Wow, I still can't believe my baby is 2! He is growing so fast and is so independent. I always tell everyone Slade grew up to fast ... he was really never a baby. I catch myself watching him sometimes in amazement. He is such a big help with Honour and when I ask him to hand me something or go get me something he happily responds with "sure" ... to cute! :)

On Oct. 27 Honour was born! Our house has been a little more hectic and crazy but loving every minute of it! We have had to learn how to adjust with 2 small kids and figure out routines that work for us. All is finally coming together and I can actually get ready for an outing in about 2 hrs. (Ha!)

A few pictures to share are below :)

Slade turns 2! Yes, this was the best picture we could get.

Boys, got to love them!
