The little mister is sitting on his own!




This little fella just keeps growing - probably in part to the massive amounts of food he eats! I wish time would stand still for just a bit because I love this age! So much personality, but not a lot of mobility yet! He just started sitting up on his own and of course thinks that is pretty neat, but not as neat as being able to roll across the floor to get to his toys!




He's had a couple of grumpy days - most likely due to teething (although there are none to speak of yet) but overall he is still the happiest, most easy going baby we've had! He usually has to wait extra long or be woken up early from his naps at least once a day to take sister to school or pick her up, but he takes it like a champ and rarely complains. 




And he's already proving to be an excellent model in the portrait studio... helping me try out this new brick background. Thanks Kenton! Love you more than words could ever describe!

Anniversaries help us to remember and acknowledge things in the past. They might not always be happy memories, but I do believe that remembering and reflecting is important.

What I do wish in hindsight is that it wasn’t illegal in Idaho to end your own life, in cases of terminal illness. That’s the choice my dad made, rather abruptly in my opinion and like all grieving children I would have given anything to have more time with him. But I think he was afraid. I think he was afraid that he w...

Day Care

Jenica is going to daycare for the first time this afternoon. I think I'm having a much harder time with it than she will. The lady that will be watching her one day a week also watches my friend Brandi's son, so Jenica will get to play with Judah while she's there. There are also a few other kids that come on Thursday afternoons so I'm sure she will have lots of fun. I know I can't have the best of both worlds (stay at home mom and career woman), it's just hard to have to leave my baby girl with someone who doesn't love her like I do. It's times like these when I wish I didn't live so far away from my family, so Jenica could just spend an afternoon with her Grammy or her cousin Kayla instead of having to go to a strangers house. Rob and I have weighed the pro's and con's and feel like a little time with other kids will actually be good for Jenica right now and will allow me to focus on work with out worrying about what Jenica could be gettin...
