January on Instagram

Better late than never...
Jan. 3rd - Found this gem in Danny's sister's family album. I have a major
crush on him.
Jan. 7th - The joys of peek-a-boo.
Jan. 12th - Chilling in my gnome socks from Talena and eating crackers
and frosting while Danny puts the baby to bed = bliss.
Jan. 14th - This face. How will I ever say no?!
Jan. 17th - Trying solids for the first time. He seemed to like the rice cereal.
Jan. 19th - Just enjoying the spring like weather, which has been the case
for most of this winter.
Jan. 20th - Art comes in many forms. This particular night it came in the
form of berries and pineapple on a massive sugar cookie. And there
was much rejoicing.
Jan. 23rd - Spitting. All the time.

Jan 26th - I take way too many pics of this boy sleeping, but look at
how precious he is! This particular day he refused to take naps anywhere
but my arms, but honestly it was sweet, even if it gave me a dead arm.
Jan. 28th - My cousin gave me this vinyl scripture months ago and I finally
finished my crafty project to display it in our living room.
Jan. 29th - Baby boy was feeling sick with a cold, so I gave him a baby
mohawk to help him feel better. I think he liked it.
Jan 31st - Drum roll please... Sitting all by himself! Now if I could only
teach him to make the bed.

Oh Crafty Trees, Oh Crafty Trees...

I've become a finals widow, if you will, meaning Danny is crazy busy trying to finish up the semester.  This has given me extra time to use my crafty skills to get our place Christmas ready.  My first creations were these little paper/foam trees.  I've seen a few variations online of this craft. I put my own little twist on it.  They are really easy to make, just takes some time. Here is what you need: Scrap paper Hot glue gun 1" Circle punch Foam cone (at most craft stores) Toothpicks Note:  You are going to go to the craft store to buy the little foam cone and you will see styrofoam glue and you will think to yourself that would be a good thing to buy for this project.  Don't!  I got the styrofoam glue and it didn't work at all.  Just go with your trusty glue gun, it won't let you down. I think it's pretty self-explanatory by looking at the picture.  You just punch circles out from the scrap paper.  Then hot glue th...

Birthday Week!

This week is my birthday week, or should I say birth week.  However that sounds too much like birthing is occurring and that is not the case.  (Don't get any ideas, Danny and I have only been married for 5.5 months.)  Anyway, I firmly believe in celebrating birthdays for the whole week, because why not? Talena and I have a tradition each year that is the kick off for my birthday celebration.  You see, Talena and I were born 12 days apart.  On the midpoint day between our birthdays we go out to dinner to celebrate.  We always try to go some where we have never been before.  This year we went to the Citrus Grill, which was very delicious.  (Special thanks to Eliza for recommending the place.)  We had fun dining, laughing and sharing secrets, because that is what girls do. My dinner...doesn't it just make your mouth water. Talena Balena and Me. PS  We did have a funny little mishap with the dessert.  We got strawbe...

8 Months!

Smiling at Daddy Showing Mr. Lion who's boss. Milestones: New food this month: Carrots, Peas, Oatmeal, Prunes, Green beans, Squash He's really interested in making different noises and sounds with his mouth. I feel like he is watching us intently trying to figure it out. ("It" meaning talking.) He hasn't started to crawl yet, but he has gotten up on all fours. He finally rolled from his back to his stomach. He's been rolling the other way for months now. He doesn't like being on his stomach, so he avoided rolling to that position for a really long time. First St. Patrick's Day, because that's a big deal. Likes: At the beginning of the month, he liked to grab my face and bring it really close to his and yell. Apparently, it is a fun game. His favorite toys are his toy guitar from his Aunt Michele, his toy car from his Aunt Katie and Uncle Tim and he really likes his stackable rings. The vacuum. It is a fascinating specime...
