Shopping Trip

My friend Julia and I went on a little shopping trip to the outlet mall in Williamsburg with Fox and Kaden in tow. It was a gorgeous day and we had a great time! We found some great deals and enjoyed the weather before they left on their trip to Texas. It was naptime...of course, and on the way home the boys were out light lights! All the more reason to treat ourselves with the best treat...Dairy Queen :) Julia ran in and got our order and got me the biggest grape Freeze ever and it was delicious! I'm sure this is the first of many shopping trips for us.

What's better than getting to lick the beaters?!

I made a cake and Foxy got to help me...by licking the beaters! He loved it!

Naptime

Caleb helping get Fox from his nap, he always wanted Caleb to get him out!

Enjoying the Texas weather

It was so great to be able to have Foxy play outside in the middle of February, seeing how last Feb. he was only seven months old..we didn't play outside much! He loved Caleb's car and Caleb pretty much stuck to playing in the dirt!

Boys, boys, boys

Who knew playing with baby powder bottles and butt paste would be so fun!

It was great having Fox reunite with Caleb..and Coops :)They loved playing! Fox instantly went to play with Caleb and all his trucks and toys! He especially loves Caleb's double decker bus for some reason :) We spent the night a few days so they had fun seeing eachother right away in the morning. Caleb always came with me to get Fox up from his nap. Emy later said Caleb would say things about "our room" after we had left. It was so sweet seeing them together. They seemed so old for some reason. Since that trip Fox started saying "Emy" it also sounds much like "Amen", but there's definitely a difference :)

Flying to Dallas

February 7, 2009

Fox and Daddy taking a snooze on our flight to Dallas

Mike had to go back down to Dallas for work so we joined him! It was so great to go back to warm weather :) But more importantly that we got to spend some time with friends again! We ate at a few of our favorite places, went to Denton Bible, took Fox to Dr. Eastman for a checkup and to visit :)

New Friends

February 6, 2009



We've been able to go to a few story times at the library here in Cedar Rapids, which is at the mall on the SW side. The mall has like 10 stores and the businesses that used to be downtown before the flood last summer. The only things keeping it alive seems to be JCPenney and the Chick-fil-A :) So a few different Fridays we've been in town we've met up with Julia and Kaden and one of the boys she watches Landon. They love playing on the toys in the middle of the mall...especially the ice cream truck!

Fox's New Chair

February 5, 2009

Who knew a cheap plastic patio chair would be Fox's favorite thing! He loves this chair...he carries it around everywhere! Climbs into it sits there for about five seconds then gets down and repeats the process. It's so funny to watch. As you can see even the stuffed fox got to sit in it for a while :)

My little cleaner

Fox has taken interest in the Swifter Sweeper! Hopefully he'll be my little cleaning buddy :) Look how happy he is in this picture!

New Baby Name Poll

Please Vote!!! Leave me a comment and tell me which you voted for!

I am adding a name to the poll. Mike keeps saying he thinks we should name the baby Wolf. Not sure why he likes it so much! But the neighbor boy just happened to tell me that we should name the baby Wolf..."because they're the best animal ever." So now I'm going to amuse Mike and put it on the poll. I have said whatever name Fox can say (out of the ones we've chosen) by the time the baby comes is the name we'll use. Today he was pretty close to say Gunnar and Wolf :) so we'll see! Here is a recent pic of the prego belly...just to give you a glimpse of how much bigger I am with this one compared to Fox!
