My favorite gift!





Christmas 2012

We had a wonderful Christmas.  The best part was having Daddy home for 2 1/2 weeks.  Keller did not want him to go back to work.  He is already looking forward to summer.  Me too buddy!  

Here's what we did this Christmas!

Celebrating Sarah and Judd

Keller's girlfriend (Pippa) and BFF (Abbott)

Christmas Eve at my parents.

Cousins

I asked for a silly picture and this is what I got:)  Even Keller got the memo.


Christmas morning with mommy and daddy.


Christmas afternoon at Grammy's cabin.


Opening gifts is hard work.




DIY Christmas

Since this was Keller's first Christmas, I really wanted to get in the Christmas spirit and decorate.  Merry and Bright!  We have one income so in order to save money off crafting I went! 


DIY burlap garland

Love my JOY wall art!



No sew table runner:)

Homemade snow globes.  Great crafting project for kids!

Burlap Santa

DIY Christmas card holder

Love me some mod podge!

Christmas presents!

More presents.  Love the felt owls:)

Santa


Slowly working my way through Christmas pictures.  First, Keller met Santa.  He asked for cloth diapers and toys.  Such a smart boy.




Come on MOM... enough pictures!


HAPPY BOY!

Keller 14 WEEKS


Can't get enough of my hands! 



Keller 3 MONTHS

 
Weight: 14.8 lbs

  • You hate hiccups, but I think mama hates them more.  Thankful Ash introduced us to Gripe water.
  • You started drooling TONS right before you turned three months old.  Could this be the beginnings of teething... surely not?!?
  • You "talk' yourself to sleep.  I will put you down WIDE awake and you will soothe yourself to sleep by cooing and eating your fist:)
  • You LOVE standing or what daddy calls climbing in our laps.
  • YOU ARE SLEEPING THROUGH THE NIGHT!
  • Early on in your second month you would sleep from 10-5 am.  Towards the end of your second month you were sleeping a whopping 10 hours from 9:30 pm - 7:30 am.... amazeballz!  Thank you baby for being so good for mama.  
  • Mama knew it was a risky move taking you to the dentist but she did it anyway.  Never again!!  Thankfully, one hygienist fed you a bottle while the other cleaned my teeth.  They were SO SWEET and didn't mind loving on you.  Thank you for being so cute:)
  • You get really upset when we stop feeding you to burp... big boy wants to keep on eating.
  • You don't have a lot of patience when you are hungry.  It's okay, I don't either.
  • You always smile when we kiss you on your lips.  It's okay, doctor says only mama and daddy are allowed to kiss you on the lips!
  • You love kicking your legs and your kicks hurt too.
  • You found your toes at 11 weeks.
  • You found your hands at 12 weeks.
  • Mama and daddy went on a "fancy" date to Cheddars and you thought it would be funny to cut our date short with a massive poopy diaper.  Mama didn't have an extra outfit so daddy had to leave and take a naked baby home.  Mama stayed and treated herself with a yummy monster cookie:)
  • Your witching hour(s) is from 6-8 pm.
  • When you are super tired you will fight sleep.  Not fun.
  • If it wasn't for your big booty you would have rolled over back to front by now.  You are getting really close to rolling over but Mama isn't in a hurry!  Slow down baby, you're growing up too fast!
  • You don't belly laugh yet, but you definitely get tickled.  You make the cutest baby noises.
  • You love when we say, "ohhhhhh" to you. You will say, "ohhhhhhhh" back.
  • Mama made all our Christmas decorations this year and Daddy found green glitter on "you know what" during a diaper change...he was not amused.  WHOOPS :)
  • You love your Uncle Justin.  
  • You are such a happy baby in the mornings. 
  • We started cloth diapering full time.  Even Daddy loves it minus stuffing the inserts.  Mama loves saving money!  We have only had to buy one box of diapers thus far.  Daddy's work did a diaper drop and that got us through the first 3 months.
  • We got permission to put you on your side to sleep.  Hopefully will help fix your flat spot.
  • 15 ounces.
Love you sweet boy. Cant's wait to see what next month brings! - Mama
