Picture Update

Pouty face and fat chubby baby!







Caught red-handed! When he first learned to scoot/crawl - he found his way to his sister's snack! Had a little taste too!
































Jalen's Baptism












Get ready for the series of shots....I can never seem to get a good one, no matter how hard I try!


























How Time Flies....(Part 2: Leah Edition)

Part 2: Leah Edition

Where to begin?? Since I last posted, we have a paci-free, potty-trained, puzzle-loving princess! That pretty much sums it up! Still loves to read, likes to paint and color, loves playing with other kids, loves going to Grandma's house, has a favorite blankey, lately has been dressing herself in her "dance" clothes (aka a skirt with leggings or tights). She's pretty much the BEST 2-and-a-half year-old ever!

She loves to be bossy. She loves her little brother. She hates it when anyone is sad. She has a really big heart. She has a love/hate relationship with JoJo (almost like me, but mine is more like a hate/hate relationship...)

Enjoy some pics from the last few months!






























How Time Flies....(Part 1: Jalen Edition)

(Disclaimer: now that I have two children awake and one of them is puking out one end and pooping out the other, I'm going to have to make this is post in different editions....Part 1: Jalen edition, is what you are reading now!)

It has been an overwhelmingly long time since my last visit to my once-faithful blog...where do I even begin?? Yes, I have thought about stopping by and making a re-appearance time and time again - but there is the ever-important word right there - TIME. Where does it go?? Some days I just don't know! I'll try to sum things up in just a slight paragraph or two (or four) to fill you all in.


Mr. Jalen Dale Hill, despite (still) being sick (with an ear infection and nasty cold) is a very happy little baby and becoming a little man right before our eyes. I predict walking in the very near future (already has 2-3 steps mastered), and then all hell will break loose, I am sure! It's already all we can do to keep his sneaky-little butt off the stairs, or his quick-zooming crawls (I swear he is the fastest-crawling baby I have ever seen!) away from his sister's snacks or juice cups. He is a very easy-going boy, but he does have a temper at times and is very vocal about it! (Think cute-baby-lion-roar crossed with angry-bird-squawk mixed with little-monkey-jumping fit....that's a pretty picture, huh? It's quite humerous and (usually) makes me laugh out loud!) Here's a little "I told you so!" for some - my son will also have curly hair (so cute!); he also has a crazy half-toothed grin right now as his baby teeth slowly come in.
