Happy Birthday to Mommy!

What a day..
After work we met up with Ashley and Lucy in Northfield.  We got dinner, dessert, and played in the fountain. 

It was all I could have asked for!
Only thing missing was Hubby.  <3

Family Pictures!

I heard about Corrie from my friend Sarah. Corrie did Sarahs wedding photos and I love love love them.

So a few weeks ago I got ahold of Corrie and scheduled our family pictures for before Paul deploys.

I just wanted to share with you some of our favorites!

Ok, so I know I said some of our favorites... Understand, there are 206 pictures to choose from!

They really turned out great. We definitely plan on doing this again when Paul comes home.

Here's to you...

My best friend.
My husband.
The amazing father to our son.
The other half of my heart.

I love you.

8 Month Update...(late...oops)

On April 9th, this little guy hit the 8 MONTH mark. Oh, so bitter sweet. His laugh is heartwarming, this little guy can instantly make our day great!
Every month it's like he's changed enough for a year. I swear he has been drooling and chewing on everything since 3 Months. Still, No TEETH! I can't believe it. He doesn't really let you check for them so I can rarely sneak a peek. I'm sure they are coming though, because somedays he is just cranky and the only way to fix that is with a little Tylenol.

We've seriously been contemplating when we are going to go for his first haircut. I want to do it before Paul leaves so we can both be there. We just don't want Daddy to miss it! I think the time is coming though, because it growing over his ears. Haha.

New Things I Do!

I say 'Da Da'- some days I look right up at him and yell 'DA'.

I have just started pulling myself up. It's still a rare occasion but I'm sure it will only become more regular.

I am increasingly good and scooting backwards, but I'm still working on the forward part.

I love to stare down the Cat.

I am the ultimate baby food eater now. Grandma Lynn has been convincing Mommy to give me real food. You should see me with a PICKLE!

I think its funny to shake my head 'No' when I am getting into my carseat.

I got a BIG BOY carseat!

I love to Swing. (Thank you Grandma and Grandpa Hutch)

I obviously have a good time with Bubbles.

My new favorite toy to chew on is Steggie. (My Stegosaurus)

Love, Kingston

Missing Daddy.

I just wanted to add a few pictures of this little man. He's getting bigger and bigger everyday. Paul is in training in California so we have been sending him pictures everyday. Though its not the same as him being here, its the best we can do for now.

He has such an awesome personality, and the cutest little laugh. I can't get over how much fun he is. I find myself just sitting on the floor playing high-five with him over and over. He really is the perfect little addition to this family.

7 Months.

This little man is growing like a weed. He has a great personality. He's definitely working on getting a tooth. He goes through several bibs a day and he chews on EVERYTHING.





How lucky am I?
I'm quickly learning not to take anything for granted. Kingston changes and grows so fast, if I blink I might miss something.
I'm one Lucky Mama!

My Boys.

What more could a girl ask for?
