As of Late

Landon had a really nice, long break between fall and spring semester. We tried to get out and do things and swimming was one of the things we did. I thought we were crazy taking Andrew but he loved splashing around in the water. Kinnie loves the water too. It was a fun little outing, and little it was. The kids got cold quick!


Andrew's first sink bath. He got very messy eating a biter biscuit and I didn't want to torture him by trying to wipe off all of the thick, crusty cracker off his face and hands. He loved being able to play with the running water.


Proof of his messiness. He LOVES those biter biscuits! He is a super eater and so far has only gagged on peas, I don't blame him. Anything with bananas in it seems like his favorite. And he doesn't mind prunes...thankfully.


Ever since Andrew was really little, probably like 2 months, he has lifted his head up like this to check out what is going on around him. It always cracks me up. HE cracks me up! Just tonight when he was sitting in his bouncy seat he started nodding his head up and down while opening and closing his mouth. He was being so funny. He absolutely loves Kinnie. Sometimes he just hears her voice and starts laughing so hard and looks for her like crazy. He has such a happy, sweet, playful personality. I am so in love with him, we all are.


1:00 church is a bit hard on Kinnie. She was so tired after church she fell asleep in Andrew's chair while I was making dinner. The good thing lately though...she has been going to nursery! Finally at 29 months she is going to nursery. We tried and tried to get her to go. Then Andrew came and she had a break, then we tried some more and gave up. We started just taking her to Sunday school with us. When the new year started we asked her if she wanted to go and she has gone three times in a row! We are so proud of her. And I think she really loves it!

Such cute pictures!! I HAVE to see them. It's been too long!
That one of Kinnie sleeping is so cute! That's what church does to me too.

I'm dying to hear Kinnie say "tut tut it looks like rain"!!!

Andrew looks so big in the sink like that. Gees, kids grow way to fast! Tucker liked those teething crackers too, but man! they're so messy!! I always had to give him a bath after those. haha.
Glad I got to see you while we were in town!!

I love the photo of Kinnie in Andrew's chair. I don't blame her at all because Church wears me out too!

Nicole - They are both so cute!! I love the one of Kinnie in the bouncy chair and Andrew in the sink... I can't believe how big Andrew is getting. I don't blame him for gagging on the peas, Jack did the same thing with green beans and he will eat almost anything so they must be super nasty!! Hope you guys are doing well!

and yea the weight limit on Jack's car seat was 22 pound.... he doesn't weigh that much but I hated carrying that thing around it was getting to heavy!!

I love him laying there with his head propped up trying to check things out. Kids do the cutest things and Kinnie sleeping in the chair is too cute.

He is such a big boy! And what a relief to have Kinnie happily going to nursery. p.s. I love that you still have that t-shirt; junior year, right?

Your children are beautiful! We will miss seeing ya'll! What a wonderful adventure and so great that it is only 3 years!
I too love to bathe my babies in the sink. It's so much easier on the back and the perfect size.
You are such a great mother, so caring and loving! Landon is blessed to have you! Best of luck out of state!!
