Another catch-up!! November & December


I've been technologically silent for quite some time now and I need to get back in the game! I wanted to throw some pictures up to cover the last few months.


Landon figured out Paisley was quite the work horse and exploited it!

Landon tuckered himself out and KJ with her eternal love, Nutella


FARM TIME


This happened while I was in Winco - Boooooo                                            
Wedding prep for my brother's wedding.

A new Do for Mommy!



Thanksgiving in Eugene!






Halsy got to go to a Seahawks Game - he had a blast!

Christmas Nativity play








Cameron's school Nativity play

We went dancing for Ashley's bachelorette party and had so much fun - Mom turned out to be the Belle of the Ball. She never left the dance floor :)


Hunting for a Christmas tree became quite the adventure this year. We went way up into the mountains and were so cold we pretty much picked the first tree we found :) The kids had fun in the snow!





You'd never know it, but these three innocent looking faces just caused me the most embarrassment I've ever experienced in a store. It was awful and I wanted to murder them, but instead I got Subway and glared at them.

Kendra and her boys came over for a Polar Express Party - so fun!!

Gingerbread Houses





This was us stuck in the bathroom of a McDonalds on Powell Blvd. Cameron came down with a horrible stomach ache and couldn't recover. So while he parked it on the toilet for 30 MINUTES we sat on the floor of the bathroom and played on my phone. I was going crazy.

He recovered and we got his hair cut by my lovely sister.

Christmas Morning!!



Hanging out in Eugene after Christmas.

Just some cute kids :)




Landon is 18 months!


Oh my sweet, happy, loving little boy!! I just adore you. You make me smile every day. You are 18 months old and I can't believe it. You are such a blessing to your Momma.

18 month stats:
Height:  (50th percentile)
Weight: (30th percentile)
Head:  (50th percentile)

Landon loves his shoes!! Actually, he loves ALL shoes, just especially his. As soon as his little feet hit the carpet in the morning he is asking for shoes and socks to be put on his chunky little feet. He wears them all day and gets very upset when you try to take them off. We went to the doctor today and he wouldn't allow them to be removed - so he was weighed in his diaper and shoes. I am so bummed I didn't take a picture :( I've never had a kid do that.

Landon is a great eater. He eats just about anything, although lately he has shown a pickier side and I don't know how I feel about that. He love to eat Cheerios, raisins, yogurt, granola, cottage cheese, string cheese, bites of whatever anyone else is eating, and drink MILK.

He is a great little sleeper - but we are still trying to break him from a horrible habit he has of waking up at 5 am. He goes to bed like a champ, we'd just like him to stay there until at least 6:30 or 7, now is that too much to ask? 

He loves his family. He freely shares his hugs and kisses. He knows everyone's names and says them quite often. 

He is such a talker. I cannot even begin to wrote all the words he can say. He is a parrot and repeats every word we say. He can put words together to get his idea across. I LOVE it. So much nicer than a frustrated kid that can't get his words out. I've not had a child be so interested in talking before.....we are enjoying it.

His favorite book is Brown Bear, Brown Bear

He loves to smile and laugh. He has the best laugh.

Car conversation

KJ heard that my friend was sick and she was telling me "If they would just go outside and put some cold air in their mouth and drink soda they'd get better"
I said, "KJ are you going to be a doctor someday?"
She and Cameron both replied "Yes!"
Cameron said, " I'm going to be a chiropractor like daddy. And you know what else? I'm gonna work at the same place as him. You want to know what I will call our work? CH Chiropractic"
I said, "Wow cam that sounds awesome!!"
Then KJ added,"that's not awesome"
"What team are you going to be on?" I asked
" I'm gonna be on the Princess team."

Oh I love it!! Funny kiddos.

The Toilet monster......BEWARE

Landon's new nickname is "Toilet Monster".
If the bathroom door is left open he will enter and destroy.

His favorite pastimes are:

  • Emptying the entire contents of the garbage can into the toilet
  • Placing any items including, but not limited to clothing, garbage, toys, etc into the toilet
  • Splashing toilet water all over himself and walls
  • Putting entire magazines into the toilet

Beware the open bathroom door - you will surely invite utter destruction!!
