Staycation 2013

For the last couple years, we've stayed home during our vacation week, instead of taking a trip. Last year, we had just moved so didn't have the money to travel, and this year, Zach started a new job, so he couldn't leave town. Honestly, our staycations have been some of my favorite vacations.

Girls Night

My mom took the kids one night so that Tori and I could go out, enjoy manicures, and have a nice sushi dinner.

Eli at 18 Months

At 18 months, this kid is C.R.A.Z.Y. He is the smiliest, goofiest, most active kid I've ever met. He loves to run, giggle, hit, climb, wrestle, pull, pinch, and sometimes bite unfortunately. He keeps us on our toes for sure, but has brought so much life into our home. I honestly cannot imagine our world without this little bundle of trouble. I love how much he loves life and wakes up every day ready to take on the world. Happy 18 months, Eli!

 

 

Nora at 2 Months

At 2 Months, Nora is the sweetest, calmest baby I can ever imagine. She is sleeping most of the night, usually waking up once to eat. She is a great sleeper, like my other two...

She loves to be held, but is fine to sit and look around. She still has all of her hair, but it is slowly starting to curl up. She's giving small smiles.

We are absolutely in love with her. 

 

May 2013

                       Here are more pictures from around here during the month of May. 

 Fred and Jennifer took the boys for me for about four days in May, so I was finally able to get my kitchen tables edited and do the redecorating in there I had been wanting to.

Mom is 60

My dad went all out for my Mom's 60th by throwing her a surprise party with all her friends and family.

 This, friends, is called the "Tuti-Ta" dance. If you don't know it and have preschool age kids, you tube it. It will provide hours of entertainment.

 I love my nephews!
