Snow Day

It doesn't usually snow where we live but today it did.....

Well, it started last night. Our neighbors decided to celebrate with fireworks....at 11pm.... Needless to say, Piper was freaked and was trying to hide under anything and Leo woke up and was crying....It took us an hour to get them calmed down and in bed again.

We woke up the next morning to too much snow (for me at least, zero is best ;)).

Hello world!

Everything was closed, so Ronnie was able to stay home (although he still 

worked all day). He took Leo outside for a minute to enjoy his first Virginia snow

(we were in Utah when it snowed last week). 

Piper thinks the snow is easier to dig then dirt! 

Happy snow day. We hope everyone has been safe and warm!

First Plane Ride

Leo, my mom and I took a trip to Utah last week to visit family.

Leo had his first plane ride and made best friends with people on the plane! He is so social!

When we got there we spent time with my grandma and we were able

to see my aunts, uncles and cousins as well. They all adored Leo even though he 

was unusually fussy that whole week (caught something on the plane? missed daddy?)

 

 Watching the grandmas do their stuff!

4 generations, Great Grandma Judy, Nana, Me, Leo

Got a view of this beauty on the way to dinner

(the new Ogden LDS temple)

Leo was happy to go home and see his daddy and Piper!

(Although, he was the screaming baby on part of the flight...eek)

 

5 Months

Leo is 5 months today!

 What Leo's been up to:

• Loves to suck on his feet (and everything else!)
• Wants what you have!
• Had his first Christmas and New Years (and was even up at Midnight)!
• Had his first experience riding in the front of a shopping cart
• Hams it up when ever we are in public... such a charmer
• Can roll over
• Sits up for short periods of time
• Anxious to get around
• Wary of rice cereal but loves sweet potatoes!
• Laughs and smiles at Piper 
• Is not allowed to have books in church anymore because he screams at them!

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!
