Happy Anniversary Love!

Danny and I celebrated our 4th wedding anniversary this past week by taking little D to the Houston Zoo.


We had just arrived - nice and fresh before the heat and sweat began to break us down. Check out Declan's sweet kicks.

This hat just kills me!

And lastly, I threw in this photo because there are tons of pictures on Danny's phone where he captures moments between Declan and me. I'm so thankful that he photographs these so that I can look back and remember snapshots of time with our baby boy. 

Documenting Every Bite

I have a calendar for Declan where I write in special moments/milestones during his first year. Tonight I was going through photos to remember and mark down some of these special events. To the outsider it would appear that all we've done in the past month is feed Declan an absurd amount of food and document every bite but we've actually done more than just that. 

I just can't get enough of our baby.

Adventures with Solids: Avocados

Hold on a second...

Gross what was that? That's not banana.

 Maybe I can see what's in the bowl.

Couldn't see but this is definitely not banana.

Let me just take this out.

Good idea, catch it with the spoon Mom.

Dad, put down the camera and save me!

Inaugural Trip to Shipley Donuts

A couple days ago we headed to Shipley Donuts to pig out in our pajamas. One day Declan will love this place like his mom and Grandma.

Half Birthday

On his half birthday Mr. 6 Months cheered from the sidelines while we played tennis in the morning. Then we headed to the swings to cheer on Declan. 

 

 

Next up was Declan's first taste of solid food. Yum - Bananas.

We spoiled our little baby all day and kept reminding him that it was his half birthday. Can't believe he's already been part of our family for 6 months. Life is much more whole with him around.

Bigger in Texas

Proof that everything is bigger in Texas.

Patient Husbands

Most of my repentance occurs in the shower.

The truth is there's been a lot of murmuring around here. A little... let's call it Lehi's wife syndrome. However this morning the eternal perspective was once again brought to my mind. (Oh and I decided I needed to paint my fingernails. They have been bare far too long and a little polish changes everything.)

Thank goodness for patient husbands that keep their families on the right path. 

Possibly a Pillar of Salt moment?
