CONGRATS RYAN!


Ryan completed his 1st 1/2 marathon in Houston this past weekend and we are so proud of him! What a great accomplishment. Go Ryan!


I am not sure why this picture is blurry, but Katelyn's new favorite thing is clapping for herself for EVERYTHING. It's so adorable!


She loves to take little naps while I take her for a walk... So precious!

TEN MONTHS OLD...


Unbelievable that it has already been 10 months. I know I say this every month, but WOW! Time flies... I will just be updating the blog monthly as I discovered facebook and it is too difficult to keep up with both!


Katelyn in her pretty Christmas dress after she met Santa Claus.. which by the way she was NOT a fan of;0)

Christmas morning with her Daddy! She had a wonderful 1st Christmas and really enjoyed climbing on all the boxes and eating all the paper!!


Such a happy girl:)



Christmas Eve before we went over to my parents which is a tradition that I treasure.. it is such a special time every year:)





Helping Mommy unload the dishwasher...




Hanging out with Mema and Pepa on NYE.. HAPPY NEW YEAR!







Saying Night Night to Daddy on NYE.. Already looks tired.. Our little one LOVES her sleep:) Praise God!!




All bundled up and about to go on a walk with Daddy
