January Life

We loved those nice days in January that we got to be outside!



Very random picture.  We are nearing the end of Connor's days with a bottle...hard to believe we will put away the bottles, and the dishwasher rack for all the bottle parts...and replace them with more sippy cups!  Sad to say I'm gonna miss that part of our day!  There is nothing like holding her in the morning or at night while she takes her bottle, and she is totally relaxed, just hanging out.  Or even once she transitioned to doing it herself--it's part of our "routine".  Wake Connor up, get her bottle, lay her on the living room floor and she does it herself.  Oftentimes, Jace will lay down beside her, or curl up on the couch and watch her while he is still trying to wake up.  Or after school, we get home, fix a bottle, and sometimes Jace will ask to hold her, or I will hold her, or she'll do it herself.  Hard to believe we are at this point...she is getting so big!

Now, the pacifiers, that's a different story.  They aren't going anywhere anytime soon...


Jed and I ate at "The Big Biscuit" after his throat stretch, and Jace got to eat the pancake we got home!  That pancake was HUGE but probably one of the best we've ever had!  (And you know our family, we love our pancakes!)


We seemed to spend a lot of time at the doctor in January...


Jace's favorite part about the new shop: a place to ride his bike!


Connor watching Dad shoot crows....and Jace bringing back the evidence!


Our kids.  One so skinny, and the other one so round...but both so adorable!

The things we do in January....

Mommy exercises...so kids get to take turns on the iPad...


Snuggle with Connor...


I can't remember what happened to Jace's lip...but I'm pretty sure Connor did it....


Speaking of things Connor does....


But she is so cute!  She doesn't know her bottle days are numbered....


We eat ice cream...


Open up the gate and let Connor be FREE!!


Go outside...because it's Kansas and the weather is amazing...

Snow! And a Music Program! And....

I've been learning how to use some different functions on the camera...and I learned how to switch my focus!  (Thanks to Jace for posing for me!)


We have the best view....any time of year...


Working on camera focus again, I have the cutest subjects!  


Even Kyler helped me practice one day!


Connor loves her PB&J!


Some photos from the Preschool Winter Program!


I swear, it doesn't matter what time we get to the programs, someone with a big head is always in front of us.  And holds their camera up to block our view....yeesh.  




SNOW!  Notice the dog biscuit and binky?  We'll do anything to get Connor to smile!  (Or just stand still!)

Connor LeAnn

My name is Connor, and I love sitting in my high chair because then people bring me food.

I don't know who that is looking at me, but she is cute!


I love time with Daddy, but you can tell when enough is enough!


Jace and I love to watch deer out the back window!


And we love to climb the hill...but I don't understand how to pose for pictures....yet. 

Oh, you know, just doing what Jace does.


Sometimes I'm grumpy when I wake up...


And sometimes even Jace is wore out at night.
