6 Months!!!


Wow! I have some serious catching up to do. I've been such a slacker as far as the blog goes. Lennon is 6 months old already! He has his first tooth, started eating solid foods, and he is so close to being on the move! We are soooooo blessed to have this little guy! He is such a sweet baby!!!
Thanks to my cousin Jarod, we have some great new pics of the little guy.


I celebrated my 30th Birthday and my first Mother's Day! Both were great!!!



Oh, and we're moving!!! (This is not the best picture but it's the only one we have for now). We were not planning on moving but when we saw this house-we had to have it! It's about 15 miles outside of Peoria and on a lake. We will really miss our house but can't wait for "country living". Lennon will love running around in the 2 acre yard! We close in three weeks and we're SOOO excited!

On the other hand....some very sad news. Our other baby, Bailey is no longer with us. At least we know she's in puppy heaven and no longer in pain. Dirk saved her from the pound about five years ago and gave her a much longer, happier life. She developed bone cancer this past year. We loved her like a part of our family and will miss her soooo much! I'm sure the loss would be even harder if we didn't have Lennon's little face here smiling at us.

Lennon's first time eating cereal. Thanks for the cute bib Aunt Nicole!
Truman's first Birthday!!!

He LOVES it when daddy sings and plays for him!!!

Ian's baby sister Jade finally arrived! She is absolutely beautiful!!!


Kisses from Poppy.

We are sooo sorry to hear about Bailey...but to know he is pain free up in doggy heaven playing with Bandit. Well I know you know this but Lennon is sooo darn cute...love the pics!!!
Love you guys and lets go for a walk again soon.

I am sooo happy for you guys. What wonderful pictures of Lennon. They are adorable. What GREAT news about the house!! I can't wait to see it. On the other hand, I am so very sorry about Bailey. She was a sweetheart and I am so thankful we got to see her on our last visit. We will miss seeing her as I know you all will miss her dearly. We understand your pain. I'm so glad you have so many positive things in your life to keep your spirits up. I can't wait to catch up on Sunday!
