Our Little Man is 14 Months Old

What a difference a year makes!!! Gammie found the same outfit in 12-18 months, so I thought it would be fitting to do a comparison picture. David is such a little man!

Here are some things that you're doing this month David...

- You've learned to climb... 

- ... and you climb on EVERYTHING!!!!! 

- You've only taken a couple tumbles, but they haven't been bad, thank goodness!

- You're still eating really well (most of the time) and love your food!

- You love going to MDO and most of the time you don't cry when I leave these days.

- You still take two naps a day, unless we're out and about or at MDO.

- You wear 18 month clothes and size 4 diapers.

- I imagine you're around 22 pounds and 32-33 inches.

-  You are following simple commands and it's so fun to see how your brain works!

- I don't think you have many new words this month, but you definitely let us know what you think.

- When I get the camera out, you say "cheese" and give a goofy grin - too cute!

- You love the Christmas tree, which is why we don't have many ornaments on the bottom.

- You started somewhat using silverware this month and if you see a fork/spoon on your plate you have to have it!

- You are such a joy and I am soo blessed to be your Mommy!

Daddy and I love you to the moon and back!

Thanksgiving 2013

We went to Abilene to spend Thanksgiving with Alan's family this year! We got to see Alan's parents, grandfather, and his sister and their family. It was great to see everyone and we can't wait to see them again for Christmas!

PawPaw's food is much
better than mine!

Elizabeth loved using this little table!

hugs. =)

Pictures with Santa!

We had pictures with Santa in Texarkana about a month ago and I absolutely loved how they turned out! We weren't able to do it last year, so I was thrilled when Alamond Photography did them again this year! I hope to make this a yearly tradition with our sweet family!

Elizabeth didn't like Santa in the beginning... She turned her whole body away from him. If I can't see him, he can't see me, right!? David wasn't too sure about that Santa guy either. As long as he was in mine or Alan's arms he was ok, but putting him in Santa's lap was a whole other story! 

I'm saving my absolute favorite picture for Christmas cards, but here are a couple of my other top picks. =)

Santa can't see me, right!?

Our Little Man is 13 months old!

Another month has come and gone and our baby is no longer a baby, it seems! He's growing up so fast that it's hard to believe!

Some bullets about Mr. David this past month...

• He weighs about 21 pounds and is 31 inches long
• David wears size 4 diapers and 12-18 and 18 month clothes

• He loves his big sister
• He walks everywhere!

• He really wants to climb, but hasn't quite gotten their yet
• Words: Gracie, paci, thank you, mama, dada. I'm sure there are more that I can't think of at the moment...

• He still eats a lot more than his big sister, but there are days he doesn't eat much at all
• Loves to give kisses and climb into Mommy's lap

• Follows his big sister everywhere
• Loves to pull his nighlight out (making it the first thing Mom or Dad takes out in the mornings...)

• Is a pro at traveling!

We love our Little Man soo much!

Halloween 2013 (and quick recap)

So I'm way late in posting this, but better late than never, right? Life just keeps trucking on by and I am having the hardest time sitting down to blog... It probably doesn't help that we've been gone the last 3 weekends and than my mom was here last week. ;) We've been crazy busy with school and our bathroom remodel in between trips! I am soooo ready to have our bathroom back, but it'll probably be another 2-3 weeks... And it won't even be complete, at that. We're going to have to wait to tile the floor and do the cabinets/countertops - as much as we'd like, we just can't afford to do it all at once. So the tile just in front of the tub/shower will be missing for a while. Nothing a few bathmats can hide, right!?

Without further ado, here are some pictures of my cute doctor's on Halloween. Gammie and Pops got them some cute monogrammed scrubs, and paired with E's Doc McStuffins coat, they were the cutest doctors on the block! We didn't end up doing anything super festive, aside from going out to eat in our costumes, but hopefully next year we can.
