Baby's First Everything

It's always fun celebrating another FIRST for Turner, but I look forward to the age when he actually gets excited for holidays.  I'm going to be one of those moms that goes all out.  Although, I'm kind of against giving kids a bunch of toys for Easter. Isn't it just like Christmas all over again to them?  I'm going to stick with easter themed candy, eggs and bunnies.

What do you put in your kiddo's Easter baskets?




Baby's 1st Christmas


MERRY CHRISTMAS! 

I want to wish you a merry early Christmas, since I won't be taking my laptop when we travel up north to the in-laws. This year's Christmas is extra special since it will be Turner's 1st. We're celebrating by giving him nothing ; ) Yeah, I know I'm a horrible Mom because I haven't bought him anything. I mean, it's not like he's going to remember. I could just wrap up some formula. 

We sent out our first Christmas card this year, since we didn't send out birth announcements. We went to the Walmart Portrait studios and tried to make them as cheesy as possible. I'm pretty sure the workers there thought we were serious.  Alex was channeling Clark Griswold. When it comes to our outfits, we actually purchased the turtlenecks from Walmart, left the tags on them, and after the pictures were taken, we returned them. BAM! I was super excited I didn't have to waste $8 on a hideous snowman turtleneck.  








Thank you Sierra for the Baby's 1st Christmas ornament. We love it!

I'm back

 Sorry for the long absence, I've been relaxing a bit too much during this holiday.  My family and I traveled south to Galveston for Turner Christmas. The weather was horrible so all 26 of us stayed cooped in the house all weekend.

 Alex and I are settling in to our new apartment, and this weekend friends are coming to visit for New Year's...I can't wait! Time to bust out the sparkly butterfly top I bought six months ago just for this occasion.


  This might be my favorite picture : ) Grown up cousins w/Gram & Grampa

My niece Emalee sporting her new shoes I got her for Christmas. I love that she already loves getting clothes for Christmas. She's 8.


Ending the night with a game of Skat (Turner tradition). My Gram gets pretty competitive.



 Ella loved her new elephant


Hope you had a Merry Christmas, and have a fun and safe New Year's Eve!
