Birthdays, Fiestas and Mothers Day

This week we celebrated James 27th birthday! He left work early and we spent the day relaxing, it was much needed. I made him spaghetti and meatballs, homemade banana pudding per his request.

 

 

 

Kellen loves to watch James throw a football around in the air, imagine that? It isn't too long before he is crawling off and climbing up on the couch. He is interested in everything these days and it is fun to watch him.

 

We bought Kellen a little pool that he didn't like to much at first because the water was pretty chilly and after we warmed it up he had fun with his big blue ball splashin' in the water watching the dogs run around in the back yard.

 

One of the cutest things Kellen has been doing lately is I stand him up and lean him against the chair or ottoman and he will give me a big smile and it makes for the cutest pictures of this little man.

 

 

 

Aunt Elizabeth visited twice this week, once was to babysit Kellen while we went to a Fiesta! We are so grateful that she helped us out so we could enjoy a night out with friends.

 

 

 

We had so much fun at Sarah and Andrews Fiesta! It was a great time and I can't wait to see my good friend walk down the isle to marry the man of her dreams. I love her dearly!

Congratulations to the Naghavi's on getting married, We love you both!

 

 

Kellen has been spending most of his "nap" time lately standing on the side of his crib and playing, I worry that he could some how pull himself up and fall out. But, he is so cute when he stands in his crib don't you think?

 

Thanks to James, I had a wonderful first Mothers Day just relaxing with my two boys. I am so grateful to be Kellens mama, the Lord has truly blessed me. He could not be more perfect.

My New Blog

Alas, after starting my blog on Wordpress, I have decided to switch to Blogger for many reasons. Most importantly, Blogger is more user friendly. I am completely starting over which means I will be documenting our family scrapbook starting with Kellen being 8 months old.

 

So, let me begin..

 

James and I got married on July 16, 2011 and we were high school and college sweethearts. A year later we built our first house together and got pregnant 2 months after we moved into our house.

 

Here is Kellen when he was born in August, 2013

 

 Here is Kellen now at 8 months.

 

 

He started crawling and got his two bottom teeth around 7 months.

Shortly after crawling, he is now pulling himself up on the couch and ottoman in our living room. He loves to move, move, move! I love this stage of his life, he is always so happy and smiling. (Except long car rides, short naps and not being held when he wants).

He takes one 30 minutes nap around 11 am, then he has a 2 hour afternoon nap around 2 pm. He will sleep for an hour or two, but I do not let him sleep longer then an two hours. He goes to be around 8ish.

I recently took photos of Kellen in the Texas Bluebonnets and loved the way the photos came out.

This is just a few pictures of the many that I have taken of our family since Kellen was born. Really, I think I have over five thousand photos. They are all my favorite. I will add more in the next post(s). For now, that was a catch up since I changed blogs.

 

Thanks for stopping by!
