Ragtime!

Just a few pictures of our CUTE babe and our WILD boy dancing! Enjoy our Ragtime!

The Real Deal

So I haven't posted a big event. This happened in January and Iknow I'm slow but better late than never! Seth had his white coat ceremony. It is basically a transition from 'student to provider'. He gets to see his first patient on Wednesday and is so excited! Congrats Seth! We are so proud of you!

Moments & Memories

Here are a few more video clips we've taken. The one with the puppy is at Grandma and Grandpa's house with Uncle Del's puppies. Nobody could believe that Grandma and Grandpa would let a dog in their house! However, it was freezing cold outside and all Logan wanted was the "ra" so they gave in. Thanks Grandma and Grandpa! The one in his high chair is our latest accomplishment. Logan is learning new songs, poems, rhymes and how to say the prayer. It is so dang cute! We just had to share! Our little bug (as Chloe is often referred to) is getting so big and they absolutely love each other. These have become some of our favorite moments and memories. Enjoy! ** Just a note, scroll down to the bottom of the blog and pause the song so you can hear the video without extra noise!

Back to Reality



Well, we are back in the real life mode and must admit it is nice to be back. Seth is 8-5 everyday and I've started school again. We've had some late nights between kids and homework but we are doing well.

Logan is so much fun. He is really good at trying us lately and seeing what he can get away with. The corner is becoming a new commonplace but he is learning. He talks non-stop and LOVES it when daddy comes home.

Chloe is growing like crazy. She weighs 10 pounds now and her favorite thing is to be wide awake when mom and dad are going to bed. She's made it through a beating with the remote, almost lost one eye, and a few large lego blocks to the head from her brother! She's going to be tough but we figured 3 beatings out of 6 1/2 weeks of life isn't bad!

Okay, so I've had these major "moments" lately. Call it emotions or whatever but I just had another one tonight and I'm going to share. Logan kept asking to hold Chloe. So, I'd put her in his arms and he'd just look at her and smile and talk and kiss her head. And the entire time he had her she'd grin so big! It was the cutest thing ever and I started to tear up. I realized just how innocent our little ones are and how "fresh" they are. They carry the love of Christ so perfectly. I hope to be like them someday. We are so blessed to have them in our lives.

Christmas



Whew! We made it! My mom was here for a week after Chloe was born to help out (thanks so much mom, we couldn't have done it without you) and then we headed off to Arizona two days after she left. We went to Arizona in our Malibu but because of car trouble and space issues came home in Mom and Dad's Suburban. Before we left Logan got to go outside with dad in the snow. He doesn't have boots so plastic baggies did the trick. He kept touching the snow and saying "burr"!

Christmas was a blast! Logan got to be a sheep in the Nativity we did with Seth's family and Chloe was the baby. Probably the first with a bow though! Logan also got to make gingerbread houses at Granny's house. He did more eating than making but it was fun nonetheless. How can candy at 8am not be fun?! Santa brougt Logan a T-ball set and he loves it! We couldn't get him to open anything else! Seth got some backpacking stuff and I got a few new things for the kitchen. It was a simple but wonderful Christmas.

We were able to bless Chloe on the 23rd in Pima. It was a wonderful day and she looked so cute in her little white dress. Almost all of our family was there. It was great. Thanks to all of you for making an effort to be there and participate.

Now we are home and taking a few deep breathes and waiting for real life to start again. Seth goes back to school on the 2nd and I start again on the 7th. We are still feeling a little overwhelmed with real life having to start again but we are excited to get back into our little schedule.

Hope everyone enjoyed their holidays and we'll be keeping you posted on our little growing family!
