Snow is falling!

I just wanted to update with a few pictures. Landen and I are getting very bored inside and we can't wait till spring where we can spend time outside. However, Landen loved the snow (we even gave him some to play with and a little taste). Things are going good. Classes have started back up for me and I am going to be a busy bee this semester. My classes seem to take up more time and get more difficult, which I guess it is a good thing, but can be very tiring. This summer will be very busy with a praticum and full time classes. And to think, i'm only half way! BLAH! I am blessed to have the opportunity to go back and get my masters so I keep working. :) Landen is great. He is discovering things and making messes! He wants to stand by myself so bad but his poor little feet can't hold his body. He is so strong though. Anyways, here are a few pics.
Look close, you can see his two bottom teeth!





Until later ~ Hugs and kisses!

Finally a Christmas post!

So I finally have a few minutes to put together some pictures of Christmas. We had a very busy last few weeks visiting both sides of the family but it was a lot of fun. We first celebrated Christmas with the Taflinger family. For some reason those pictures wont load from my camera so hopefully soon I will post them. But we had a great time playing games and spending some time with one another. Landen had so much fun with his cousin Caleb and can't wait for his new little cousin to make his arrival. :) The weekend before Christmas my brother and his girlfriend came to out house for a few days (who is now his fiance). We had a lot of fun with them as well. Then we ventured to my parents in Ohio for a week over Christmas. Landen's first Christmas was great. He was so cute. Of course I have posted a ton of pictures. :) It was so nice to also spend Christmas Eve at my grandparents house. My Nannie worked so hard to make it so special. It was great to all be together and spend time with the cousins. Over New Years we went back to the Taflingers and spent more time playing games and relaxing. What a busy yet fun time of year. I start back with classes this coming week. BLAH! So things will once again pick up! It has been nice being back in our little home and back to a routine, however, we can't wait to see family again very soon! Anyways, here are the pictures, hold on, cause there are lots!

Playing in his new tub that he got from grandma and grandpa taflinger. He LOVES it!



My brother Erik and his fiance, Leah.

Family Christmas picture!



So tired after such a long few weeks. At the taflingers house after new years. (look at those feet, so sweet)



Here is a video we just took the other night of landen playing. He is just so sweet. Landen is all over the place moving around. He is a pro at crawling and at 6 months started to stand. He is sooo strong. I bet he walks by 9 months. :) He sure keeps me busy but i wouldn't change it!
