Our snow covered house!

March Snow?

IT'S SNOWING!!!!!! And it's already sticking! They're calling for 2-5 inches of snow here tonight and it has begun! You know all the school teachers are doing the snow dance and praying for a day off! Carson is taking a late nap after she fought going down for over an hour (I think she's teething)...boy will she be surprised when she wakes up! We hope to let her enjoy the snow outside for a little while as she's still not 100% healthy. I'm sure we'll have more pictures to follow!

Carson's Birthday!

HAPPY 2nd Birthday Carson!!!

Dear Carson, Happy 2nd Birthday! Even though you can't tell in this picture, you are sick today on your birthday :( Mommy and Daddy had to cancel your birthday festivities for the weekend which has been SO hard to do. But don't worry, we're going to celebrate next weekend with you! Mommy attempted to make you feel better today by letting you lick the brownie batter - you can tell it was really yummy in this picture!
We are so proud of you! You are such a delight to be around, have the best personality, and frequently make us laugh with your singing, dancing, belly laughs, funny faces, poses, and quick wit! You have the most wonderful manners and frequently say, "please," "no thank you," or "yes, ma'am." I just hope these continue! You are a wonderful sleeper and will eat most anything these days (except for mashed potatoes which you cannot stand)! We are amazed how quickly you change and how fast you are growing up! As for some of the "baby book" facts: you are wearing size 5 diapers during the day (as of this week) and size 5 nighttime diapers. You use 3-4 words in a sentence, can draw a circle, you jump everywhere you go and on anything. You have 16 teeth (we're waiting on those 2 year molars) and an adorable smile! Your favorite cartoon is most definitely Dora the Explorer - your face lights up when we let you watch this! Your favorite song is: the ABCs. Your favorite food: pasta/spaghetti. Your favorite color: pink or blue. Your best friend: Mackenzie. Your favorite toy: any baby dolls! You are definitley attached to your pink fleece blankie and the Minnie Mouse doll GiGi gave you for Christmas. You are a delight and we love you so much! Happy Birthday!!!

Happy 35th Birthday Chris!

HAPPY 35th BIRTHDAY CHRIS!!!!

WE LOVE YOU!!!

You know you're getting old when you ask for a navy blue blazer!!!

It does look good on him!

Our one attempt at a family photo..good try!

Helping Daddy blow out the candle before going to bed! (Good practice for her big day this Friday!)

Chris- we hope you had a great birthday today! Thanks for being such a good daddy, husband, and friend! We love you and had fun celebrating as a family tonight!!!

Happy Valentine's Day!

Happy Valentine's Day from our kitchen to yours!

A change of pace...

We needed a change of scenery last weekend for lunch. Carson LOVES this wagon a family member made for her and decided this was where she was going to "dine!" It was a beautiful afternoon and perfect for watching all the animals outside with her best bud beside her!

Sick and playing catch up

Whew! I'm finally playing catch up after not feeling well all weekend/week. Carson and I both have endured a yucky sore throat, cold/cough and are slowly becoming ourselves again. Mommy's been pretty tired by the end of the day and the energy to blog has not been there!
We were able to enjoy a quick trip to Columbia for my brother, "Uncle George's," birthday last Saturday! Carson is really "into" birthdays and frequently told George "hap buhday!" She even got some practice blowing out candles for her upcoming birthday. So, Happy Birthday Uncle George! We loved being there and celebrating with you!
