Mommy's little Giggle Box!

Landon is SO ticklish and normally it is hard to catch on video. Daddy was able to catch it tonight when we were getting ready for bed! I hope it makes you laugh as much as it does me!!

Cute Kids!!

Addison and Landon were looking pretty cute on Tuesday so I snapped some pictures! Landon is so expressive. Addison is showing me her bear face. At school she was learning about animals, specifically bears, hibernating. We had conferences this week for Addison. She is doing well. It seems like she is where she should be for her age. Mrs. Ziemba gave us some ideas of things we can work on at home which is good. I am very impressed with the school. I thought it would be a funny story or two and that would be it...but it was this entire list of things that each child is evaluated on. I wasn't expecting that but was pleasantly surprised.

New Landon Pictures!!

We finally got around to taking some new pictures of Landon. It is so different how things are with the second child. I think I took pictures of Addison nearly everyday. Granted the circumstances were a bit different but still. Here are some pictures of our handsome little man! He is so much fun. He loves nothing more than to be talked to and he is SUPER ticklish. His shoulders and back if you even touch them while changing him you get a great big Landon smile.

Veterans Day Weekend

We were so lucky to have some very good friends visit us this weekend from SanDiego. Harriet, Kevin, Paige and Rebekah flew in on Thursday night after waiting in the Salt Lake airport for 5 hours since they missed their connections. We had such a fun time. On friday we had a little dress up party. I set up the living room with all Addi's dress up stuff and let the girls have at it. Sophie came over to play too. We also had a little tea party and let the girls decorate some cookies. Well, I don't how much decorating got done but there was NO frosting left. It was super fun!!











Harriet and I were able to do a little shopping, a little crafting and a lot of catching up. It was so great to see all of them and finally meet their beautiful little girls.

Bill was even able to take some family photos for them...they turned out great!

Catching Up....

Lots and lots to catch up on.

We spent some time in MN while Bill had a LONG week at work. Unfortunately my Grandma ended up in the hospital. The good thing is that we were there. She is doing well and is at home. She has congenital heart failure and we found out that only 25% of her heart is working. We hope and pray that with some diet changes things won't get worse.

So our trip to and from MN went fairly well....I stopped outside of Sioux City for gas, turned around and this is what I found....
I brought formula with just in case and Addison found it and thought it was quite interesting! There was no where to clean it up so she had to sit in formula the rest of the way. Somehow she got her hands wet and it was stuck like glue to her face and hands. You can about imagine how thrilled I was. But of course I HAD to take a picture!



Nana sewed Landon his first hunting outfit....he looks so cute! With the way that Landon loves being outside it seems like hunting is one of those things he is going to enjoy. I guess we will see in 30 years when it will finally be okay for him to carry a gun.


So while we were at Nana's we had a little birthday celebration for Addi since Nana and Papa didn't get a chance to celebrate with her. Auntie Steph gave Addi a Taylor Swift doll. Addi was very excited that she had curly hair like her. Here she is watching a performance of Taylor Swift....

Landon is 3 months old!!

Okay, I am a bad mommy! Landon is 3 months old today and I didn't take any pictures! I promise I will have some new pics soon! He is doing so well. He had a good streak of sleeping through the night....friday, saturday, sunday, monday...but not last night. We had a follow up appointment last week for his "flat head". The Dr. said that it looked fine and that he doesn't need a helmet and if she saw what she did this time she wouldn't have even mentioned it. Good thing I spent a month freaking out! Oh well, it is all fine. Landon weighed almost 15lbs (14lbs 7oz). He is still taking some acid reflux medicine but other than that he is happy and healthy and growing just fine!

It is getting to be so much more fun. He is cooing and giggling and smiling like crazy now. He is such a happy little guy with a killer smile! We are very lucky to have two beautiful kiddos!

Halloween Fun!

Addi had a great Halloween! She and Landon both looked SO cute. We had a great time around our neighborhood with Sophie, Vollen, Casie and Vernon. Then we went over to Casie's Parents house where her Dad took pictures of the kiddos. It is the coolest thing ever. He is a photographer with a studio at his house. So he takes pictures of all the trick or treaters and sends them a picture. Way cool. The pictures of the kids were SO cute.

Here are a few pictures from Halloween





Checking out her loot!
