Gregory's Christmas Concert

I haven't posted anything since FOREVER!! I can't believe how fast Christmas came and went. We had lots of stuff to do. The middle of December, we got to watch Gregory perform in his annual Christmas concert.

New Puppy

So we have been busy getting ready for the new baby. And as if we were busy enough, we decided to get a new puppy. She is a pure bred beagle and super cute. She seems to be very smart. Once we get her trained I am sure she will be a great dog. That makes it three dogs in our house!! Are we crazy?!?
Here are a few pictures of her and our other two dogs!


Layla loves following the puppies around!

Happy Halloween!

So, I took a little while to post this. Last Friday was Halloween. The kids had a great time. Gregory went trick-or-treating for about an hour after school. We only took Layla to a couple of houses. I was kind of worried about her wearing her costume. I thought she would just cry and try to take it off. But, she loved it!
Natalie & Homer Jr went trick-or-treating after supper. So it was a busy day for everyone!
Here are a few of the pictures from the "big" night:)!

It's a boy!!!

So today I got the "official" results of my ultrasound. Everything looked good. There was nothing for me to be worried about. So now I am super excited and very relieved! Here's a picture of the little guy:)!

I can't wait until February!!

The Past Year

I have spent the last few days thinking. I just don't know where the past year has gone! My baby girl so tiny and helpless grew up.

After Gregory had chicken pox over Christmas vacation, Layla caught it! Only 3 months old and so sick!

In February we all went on a wild adventure. We bravely made our way clear across the US. Spending time in Texas with family was priceless! So many memories...


In March, Layla learned to sit up all on her own. She would love to sit and play with toys.

At seven months old, Layla could crawl and get into trouble.

The end of July, Layla took her first steps! Ten months old and there was no stopping her!

Now I see her and I see that she isn't a baby anymore. She turned into an adorably sweet, but stubborn, little girl. I am so excited to see how the next year will go!

Layla's Big Day!

Saturday was my baby girl's 1st birthday! I was so excited for it. More excited than she was! On Thursday, I baked her cake. On Friday, I decorated it. After about 3 hours, my masterpiece was finally finished!

Saturday morning she opened her presents. She needed alot of help from her brother and sister. Once the toys were open, she was more excited!

After her afternoon nap, we headed to grandma and grandpa's for the party! When we sang "Happy Birthday" she didn't know what to think. But she sure loved eating the cake!

We all had a great day and alot of fun! So Happy 1st Birthday, Layla! Oh yeah, I almost forgot! Saturday was also Homer Sr's Birthday. Happy Birthday to you too, Homie!
