Christmas 2013

Christmas this year was so much fun!

 Leo actually loved opening his gifts (mainly to eat the paper). 

 

My parents came over on Christmas day and had so much fun with Mr. Leo.

Piper did well too. She only opened the gifts that were for her. 

Afterwards it was a huge mess! We enjoyed our time opening gifts, 

drinking hot chocolate, and eating lots of food!

 

We hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas to celebrate our Savior's birth!

Happy Birthday Piper!

Today Piper turned ONE! 

Now she can be a mature, calm adult...right?!?!

4 Months

Leo is 4 months today! 

 

Let's face it people, this guy is wiggly. I took a hundred pictures of him trying to get a "good one".... Anyways, I'll overload you with too many pictures of Leo once again.

Stats:

Weight: 14lbs 11oz
Height: 26 inches
Head Circum.: 41.5

What he's been up to:

He falls asleep on his own...like I don't have to hold him until he falls asleep! Woot woot!

He giggles, squeels, babbles, spits

He wants everything in his mouth

He tries to do crunches if you lay him down

Still cuddly...yet so wiggly

Is Mr. Popular at church :)

Peed on mommy in church....

LOVES his puppy and pulling her cheeks, hair, ears, etc.

He thinks ceiling fans are amazing

Thanksgiving

This Thanksgiving was extra special since we have Leo (and Piper..). It was their first! 

We are so grateful for family and especially little Leo, who was truly a miracle.  

 Yay! It's Thanksgiving!

Piper was especially interested in that turkey.

 Enough with the pictures!

 The day after Thanksgiving we went and got our Christmas tree!

 Ronnie's truck made it's first Christmas tree haul :)

And Piper thought we were bringing her a big stick....

 Hope everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving!

I can't believe we are gearing up for Christmas already...the time is flying!

Leo and Piper Diaries

Leo has grown more fond of our dear Piper.
He smiles and talks to her and pulls and tries to eat her fur. :) 

 

 

Leo trying out his new bouncer while Piper apparently stood guard.

Funny/cute/annoying story:

So we got Leo this bouncer (see video above) since he is such a wiggly guy....and I put him in it for a minute so I could vacuum. Well as soon I turn on the vacuum Piper starts barking and attacking it...then she would run over to Leo (who is in the bouncer) and stand in front of him and lick his face. Then run back over to the vacuum and bark/attack it, and repeat.  I guess she didn't want the vacuum to get him. Needless to say I had to remove Leo and relocate him so I could vacuum...

3 Months

The time is flying and I can't believe Leo is 3 months today!

He gets cuter, more vocal and more wiggly every day.

 

Leo weighs approx. 14 lbs

 

In the past month:

 

He went on his first road trip to Kansas

Cheered for daddy at the Richmond marathon

Turns 180 degrees in his crib

Still wakes up during the night.....

Concentrates really hard when he is trying to grab something (see pics above...he wants those toes)

Sucks on his hands until they are red

Very vocal and laughs the best when pulling mommy's hair

Camera shy.

Still wants to be held...all the time...

Fights sleep during the day

He fell asleep once while playing...miracle! :)

 

 

Semi-ok with tummy time

 

 

He's is just a very active little boy and we love him!

A Walk in the Park

We've been enjoying the weather lately.

 

First a walk at Oak Grove Park with my mom, Leo and Piper.

Piper was more obnoxious than normal that day...so we'll remember how cute Leo was!

Pics courtesy of my mom and her iPhone :)

 

Next up a walk with the family at Northwest River Park. 

 

 

Ma! Enough with the close ups!

 

Just one more :)
