comparison time!

finally plugged in my external hard drive to look at old pictures. I don't have Cal's on the computer, and not very many of Kaycey's first six months either. But here's the 3 girls at approximately 2 months old. Can you tell who's who??



how about sleeping babies???

I'll get some of Cal's baby pictures on here soon, too. His 3 month old picture looks alot like Sadie, I think!! (answers will be in the comments section : )

...catch up,part 2

I am realizing it would've been easier to do a ton of mini posts and change the date of the post. Oh well...I'll start doing it that way in February, no sense in changing things right this moment when I'm on a roll!

January 11-Sadie has her 2 month check up, but I decide to wait to start immunizations since she had been sick (and still had a bit of the cough left). She was a whopping 11 lbs even (54%) and 23 inches tall (74%). Oh so smiley.

Time to pack away the itty bitty baby clothes : ( I could squeeze her into some of them yet, but she is so long she can't stretch her legs completely in the 0-3 month clothes. On to 3-6 month clothes...goodbye teeny tiny clothes...


January 13-Cal scores his first basket in a game. Too bad the team lost, though. And I was so mad, I had my camera on a different setting so it wasn't taking the continuous shots. Oh well. Would've had the video camera there, but its broken : ( yep the brand new one. I just hope we are able to get the Christmas Eve service off of it. Maddie's singing was classic.

January 14-packed the maternity clothes away.
January 15-Cal's team wins their first game. He didn't score any baskets, but he got to be the captain for the night.

January 16--a busy day that began with a birthday party for a gal in Maddie's class, then a basketball game in the morning, then volunteering for the next basketball game, then a few hours to myself attending the 365 class at the Scrap. Store.

Later that night we all watched the football game. Sadie seriously sat and watched the game, too. Mike commented, "If Sadie stays up and watches this for much longer, she's going to think Peyton is her Dad." I found this comment hilarious.

Then I stayed up oh so late (12:30am) to clean and get things ready for Sadie's baptism on the 17th.

catching up, for real--part 1

I have an infant who does not like to sleep much during the day...her naps are usually in the late afternoon or evening, so my days are filled with making baby happy, and not much blogging anymore! Anyhow, I will do what I can when I can to keep up with my 365.

January 9th--We held Maddie's small impromptu birthday party for my side of the family. We weren't sure if everyone would be feeling better, so it was kinda last minute.
I love Maddie's genuine excitement over each and every gift, even clothes and socks. And I quote, "That's dorable!" (yes, she says it without the "a") and "Oh my gosh!" and "It's so cute!" and "Oh a goodness sake" (instead of "for goodness sake") and "I don't alieve it!" (alieve=believe)

January 10--Cute lil' baby foot. She was actually screaming her head off when I took the picture but I was bound and determined to get a picture of the foot. I am a little crazy, huh?

My cousins were in town for the weekend. They don't come very often, and if they do it's always such a quick visit, I don't even get to see them. Their youngest is a boy Cal's age, so when they all surprised us by coming Sunday after church with my Grandma for a quick visit, the kids were VERY excited.
Went to watch the Packer game by Grandpa Bo's. A bummer of a game, the Packers lose in overtime to the Cardinals. 51-45. Boo. Cal was so mad, he seriously went outside and stuck his head in a snowbank. Then he came in and wiped his face off with a piece of blue tissue paper. Haha.

wish i was there!!

This morning I woke up to blog posts that were so super exciting, I wish I was at CHA in California right now!!!!!!!!!!!!

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this new line coming out..."Dear lizzy" for American Crafts.

I am so excited to say that I know the designer and owner at Bella Blvd! I can't believe all the fun new product that was released this time!! And I'm honored to say that I know her & several of her creative "Artista's". The booth is beautiful, and the goodies they make, WOW. I wish I could see the goods in person.

I miss the Scrapbook Store ALOT : (

I lied

I spent last night watching the Hope for Haiti concert. Amazing performers and songs. Then I went to bed.

Today we had a basketball game, final of the season for Cal. He's pretty bummed about it being done. It sure went by fast. It seems like the boys were just getting the hang of playing as a team. They won today, 16-6, Cal scored 2 baskets. This afternoon thus far, I've been feverishly working on uploading pictures and deleting the not so good ones. I am vowing to keep up with that this year. If only I could keep up on my blog...maybe later??

The basement calls...I am labeling the dozens of bins that are chillin' down there. Sounds like fun, doesn't it??? (not really)
