This last week the weather has been gorgeous for early March and we are LOVING it! We have gone on quite a few walks and spend lots of time outdoors enjoying the fresh air! 71/365 | I took Micah to the studio for a few 8 month pictures, how can he really be 8 months old […]

Spring Fever | Project 365

58/365 | Lately Micah has been SO busy. He is constantly on the move! He isn’t quite crawling but he has no problem getting around. He rolls and army-crawls all over the floor!  59/365 | Just a boy in a sea of toys. 60/365 | That naughty little smirk just kills me. 61/365 | Last […]

Growing Up | Project 365

The last week and a half has been pretty crazy. Between Tony and I staying the night in Sioux Falls for a little mini-vaca, my birthday, and just day-to-day life. I’m now another year older and my little boy is getting bigger by the day. We’re now feeding baby food every night around supper time, Micah […]

Another year older.. | Project 365

I am WAY behind on posting Project 365 photos but the truth is, life has just been busy and I am so thankful! My hands might be full, but my heart is even more full. Here is a little recap of the last 14 days!  33/365 | Bath time in the tub. Micah no longer lays in […]

Full Hands, Full Heart | Project 365

31/365 | Since Mother Nature has blessed us with yet another weekend of snow and Micah is still getting over RSV, we have been hanging out here at home all weekend. Yesterday Micah seemed to have moments where he was feeling better. He thought he was pretty big stuff when we let him hold his […]

Snowed In | Project 365

27/365 | On Tuesday, Micah started getting a cough and was a little snuggly with daddy. 28/365 | Playing with his toys so nicely and being goofy of course. 29/365 | Thursday, Micah’s cough starting getting worse and I took him to the clinic and we found out he has RSV. He has to do […]

More Sickness | Project 365

25/365 | Playing toys at Grampy and Grandma’s house in my tiger jammies. 26/365 | Say What?! I am blogging again already? Today was a pretty decent day. The sun was shining, the snow was melting, and we spent the night at home watching the Bachelor and playing with Micah. He was SO goofy tonight! […]

Mondays Aren’t So Bad

15/355 | Micah and I spent yet another day at home as he was still getting over the flu. He finally got some good naps in and started catching up on his sleep! 16/365 | Tony’s parents have this toy that Micah just loves. It’s actually supposed to be a toy they can use to […]

Playdates and Visits with Family | Project 365

Playing Catch-up | Project 365

6/365 | Micah had yet another blowout tonight while playing in his jumper tonight. (this is beginning to be a habit of his!) Which meant yet another bath for him! He absolutely LOVES taking baths. We are thankful for this since he needs them frequently! I honestly could photograph him in the bath all night, […]
