Merry Christmas!

Holiday Traditions Festival

Another holiday tradition is the opening of gifts. We do ours a little early since we have a blended family. Jeremy usually spends Christmas with his dad, and Christopher and Anthony will be with their mom. So we opened a couple gifts Thursday night, and the rest were opened Friday morning. We had originally [...]

Birthday Montage

Preston had a great 1st birthday. At first, Preston didn’t know what to think about the cake. Once he tasted it though he was eating it until he was gagging. Poor baby! Maybe we shouldn’t have tried giving him the cake so close to the big meal we had. We [...]

Happy 1st Birthday, Preston!

I had already posted how I found out I was pregnant with Preston in this post, but I never really told his birth story.

Ogre Babies

Most mothers would be mortified if anyone compared their baby to a little green ogre baby. I, on the other hand, have thought for months that the little ogre baby from Shrek the Third looks just like my Preston. I’m not sure which one he looks the most like though. Even their cute little laughs [...]

Holiday Traditions Festival ~ Week 2

I remember every year, my mom and I would go shopping and we would always pick up a few new ornaments to add to our tree. Sometimes the ornaments were reflective of ourselves, sometimes reflective of the holiday, and sometimes just because we thought they were beautiful.
Usually, our ornaments each have a story behind [...]

He Pulled Up To Stand!

While I was typing my last post, Preston pulled himself up to stand in his playpen. I was so excited. I eased off the couch, hoping not to startle him causing him to fall, and tip toed to get my camera. The pictures above are what I caught. He stood there for a good [...]
