Can you tell that someone is teething?

Happy Halloween! Love, Frosty

One day is not enough. Saylor will be wearing this costume many times from now until summer!

This is Jacktastic!

Saylor

I love this little lady so much! I love how easily she will give you a smile. I love how she looks for me when she hears my voice. I love how she calms down the second I pick her up. I love how she will be crying in her cradle and the second Geremy or I appear she smiles as if to say "I knew you would come!" I love how she chugs her bottles, and belches like a sailor. I love how she bends backwards as far as she can to see what is going on behind her. I love her baby talk. Her giggles send me straight to Heaven! I love how she smiles in her sleep. I love how she loves her bunny and her ducky and hugs them close the minute we give them to her. I love how she loves being sung to and read to. I love reading my childhood books to her. I love taking a nap with her all snuggled up in my arms. I love watching Geremy with her. I love the way she makes me feel. I love how she makes my life more important.

I could go on and on for the rest of my life. She is so sweet and special to us and makes us happier everyday! Thank you, God, for giving her to us!

This is the outside and the main level of our house:) I have a newborn so you cant judge me for the mess! Pictures of the upstairs and basement to come later.

Empty Guest Bedroom.

This yellow was painted on every square inch of every wall in the house. It wouldnt be so bad if there wasnt so much of it.

Messy Office

Ugliest bathroom in the history of bathrooms. This is our next project.
