Family Ties







We just recently had our family portrait taken for the church directory. It is the first family portrait since Austin joined our family and the first one since Collin was 3 1/2. Family is very important to me and so are preserving memories. If we never took any pictures, what would our great-grandchildren have to remember us by?

Aren't my boys super cute? Collin has really enjoyed becoming the "big" brother! When I asked him a few months ago how he likes having a little brother, he said "it's just like I always dreamed". Darn, that made me cry! He's so sweet...

Families are so awesome!

Where in the world did that tooth come from?


So, I was getting Austin ready for bed tonight, and I happened to glance in his mouth and I noticed he had a 3rd tooth on the bottom. I thought "What! Where did that tooth come from?" I don't remember seeing that this morning. Huh? I yelled to Darin to ask him if Austin got another tooth and we just missed it? He wasn't sure either, cause he's a guy and they aren't that observant, I guess! So, I called my mom and she said that she remembers Austin having a lot of teeth in his mouth when we saw her FOUR days ago! So, I had to look back at this picture I took on Sunday (4 days ago) and sure enough, there is another tooth on the bottom! I feel so bad! If I had realized Austin was teething, I would have given him Orajel or something...but, he was a trooper! No complaints or whines out of him. Crazy! I guess I am blessed with TWO good boys! Just thought I would share this, cause we all know how busy life can get. I guess my advice would be to just stop and smell the roses once in a while, in my case, it would be to stop and notice more, or something...

Crazy Days of February







So, as you can see by the pictures, we love to have fun. Collin is full of spirit! He loves to be silly. I, on the other hand, love to take pictures and you will constantly see me with the camera in hand. And, because of that, I hardly get in the picture...so, here is a photo with me in it (only because I held the camera out in front of us). Austin has the big eyes and I love it when I can get a super cute picture of him up close...enjoy!

A Snowy Day in January 2008










We had snow this year! We couldn't believe it! We had up to 8 inches of snow and it was so much fun getting to play in it this year.



Austin wasn't quite sure about the snow, but he still liked it! You can see by the look on his face :0) Too cute!
Darin and Collin got to build a snowman.


Mom even got out there in the snow as well. Collin and mommy had fun throwing snowballs at each other!





Valentine's Day 2008

Well, my sister-in-law created a blogspot, and my friend Wendy has one, so i thought I should start one too! This way, all my family can see this page. Although I do have a myspace page, only my friends on there get to see the pictures and stuff that I post! This way, all can view if they want too! HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY TO ALL!
