Cousin Taylor with Ryder


Little hands and baby kisses


We were supposed to have a meeting with the speech therapist today for Ryder, but she called and rescheduled due to the snow.  I cannot wait to get him started with her.  He's already accomplished so much!

Wyatt walks everywhere now, crawling is only an option if he doesn't have anything to pull himself up on. 

Thankfully, my wonderful handy husband figured out that we don't need to replace our furnace, only completely rerun the duct work in the basement.  I cannot wait to save money on my gas bill!

Short and sweet tonight.  

I wish I could stop time.  I feel like life right now, life with my boys is so perfect.  I know its only going to get better, but can't I just stop it now and enjoy these moments for a little longer?  Can't I enjoy the little hands and baby kisses for just a bit longer?  




Something to make you smile

Favorite Parts of Today


  1. Getting a 99% savings at Kroger this morning.  
  2. Ryder's playgroup teacher telling me how impressed that she is with him.
  3. Listening to everyone say how amazing it is that Wyatt is already walking.
  4. Finally seeing Ryder's eyes after I cut his bangs tonight.
  5. Shane coming home from work early.

Last Night's Dinner!

Quick, Easy, Delicious!

Foil-Pack Chicken and Broccoli Dinner (15)

I was too excited to eat last night so I forgot to take a picture, here's the one from the site!


It was so yummy! So Easy! I did have to almost double the cook time though because my chicken was a bit frozen still, and really thick.  Clean up was a breeze!  Yum Yum Yum!

Bagels, Toilets, and Orange Soda Boxes


Breakfast time.


I never know what will end up in the toilet next.  I think this is worse than a crocodile in the toilet.


He decided it would be fun to one... remove all of the soda cans from the box and line them on the shelf, two... tear the box up, and three... put the box on his head and run around screaming.
