Hungry Hippo :)

My little man can eat!!! We have been attempting to wean from the breast to just the bottle (still breastmilk though!!!!) and it has been a struggle I have a very very stubborn little man!!! But on the other side he is liking the solids more! Here are a few pictures of him eating some butternut squash! He loves it!!! I am making my own babyfood and it is a lot easier than i thought it would be and he loves the great flavors of it!!! If you are interested in making your own babyfood here is a fabulous website BABYFOOD. The reason we are doing the bottle is because in about 2 weeks I am going to a veterinarian conference in Las Vegas!! and i will be gone away from him for about 7-8 days!! So I want him to take a bottle good for my mom!! They are going to have so much fun while at my moms! she has so many projects lined up for them to do and Lexi is super excited!!!We are going to fly over the Grand Canyon and then do a 2 hour bus tour of the Canyon! I am just so excited to go and see that and then to just see the Las Vegas Strip lit up at night!!! I will be taking tons of pictures!!! So be ready for a picture full blog upon my return!!

This Friday is my Birthday and Justin's is the 16th of February and I will be in Vegas for his bday and Valentines day so we are going to celebrate it this weekend! We are going to an amazing restaurant in Cleveland, TN then going to go down to Atlanta. Justin wants to go to a reptile show (he wants a snake but i am not too keen on that idea!!! ) and then we will go shopping at the mall for some clothes for me :) So we will have a fun Filled Weekend in Atlanta!! The kiddos will be staying with Michelle and i am hoping that Will does great with the bottle! This will be a big test!!! Well thats enough rambling for now! here are the babyfood pictures!! Enjoy and I hope everyone has a Blessed Week :)

LOVE, Kristen Justin Lexi and Will

Goodbye 2009...Hello 2010

2009 was an AMAZING YEAR!!! So much happened and We are so excited for what 2010 has in store for us!!! Here are some of my favorite pictures from the past year!!

In March we got the chance to go to Florida and spend a whole week with Justin's sister Brooke and all of her kiddos!! It was an AMAZING trip!!!

Lexi and I got our pictures done for Easter

In May My mom took us to Chattanooga to see the aquarium!!! GREAT TRIP as well!!

Lexi and Grams!

On June 30th we welcomed William Timothy into our family. He weighed 9lbs 13oz! and continues to be a little chunk!! He has been the best baby and Lexi loves him to pieces!!!

JULY

In August we got to take another trip to Nebraska (note to everyone else....DONT DRIVE 12 HOURS WITH A NEWBORN AND A 3 YR OLD!!!) Longest 16 hours of my life :) We got smart on the way back and traveled while they slept :)

Lexi also started Ballet this year and she is LOVING every Minute of it!!!

For Lexi's birthday in Sept we took a trip to Dollywood's Splash country!! Will had a great time and so did little Miss Daredevil :)

For Halloween we got to meet a friend from Babyfit Sandi and her Little girl Addison at her 3rd bday party!! I had a Tiger and Tinkerbell :)

December!!

We rounded out the year at home! We got to go to my moms for christmas and the kiddos loaded up with WAYYYYYYY too much stuff!! But you know grandparents!!! Will actually started sitting on his own and he is also making his way around the house!! I would say in a week or so he will figure out his knees and we will have a full on crawler and not just a scooter :) Lexi is going to finish out her year in ballet and we will see where that takes us!! She is going to start pre-k4 this fall and I cannot wait to see what 2010 brings us!! 

We wish you all a very safe and Happy year to come and May the Lord bless each and every one of you!!

Love 

Justin Kristen Lexi and Will :)
