8 months and at the park!

8 months!

Good gravy in the navy, can time please slow down! I'm not ready for my little boy to be 8 months already, but he is! Marcus is a babbling machine he loves to say "bababab" and "ma-ma-mah", he loves to give kisses, he loves to be tickled and his crawling has improved so much......hes into everything! He now has 3 teeth and a 4th is coming in! Now that he is crawling he seems to be eating more; 4 containers of baby food, a handful of Gerber puffs and yogurt melts and several bites of chicken, scrambled eggs or mashed potatoes a day. Marcus is also back to napping twice daily for a good hour-hour and a half..Yay! His little personality is just shining through, I absolutely adore this little guy! I'll soon be posting a video that I took while at the park today.

Love,
Chris and Katie

Easter 2012

Sadly in my little mans 7 months of life he has had 4 bad colds, naturally he is fighting one of them right now. Even though he may have been sick he didn't let that stop him from enjoying his very first Easter!
It was hard to get him to crack a smile but he did enjoy checking out his Easter loot!


Lots of his favorite snacks, a new tub (he outgrew his infant bathtub a couple months ago), some new paci's, a couple books, his first Bible, couple bath toys and of course an Easter bunny!

I love holiday baking, here are a few of the tasty treats I made to celebrate the holiday!

These were my dyed eggs that I used for Deviled Eggs.
Cupcakes I made for Chris's work! Can't forget the bunny cake!

I cant wait for the day when Marcus comes home from school with a picture he colored/painted, until then he and I did a little art project together last week. I have it proudly displayed on our fridge.

Notice the grass? I used his little hand prints.

I hope everyone had a Wonderful Easter. We are already looking forward to next year when little man can hunt eggs!
Love,
Chris and Katie

Not a day goes by.....

........that I don't think about you! I cant believe its been three years. Whom ever said time heals all wounds is very wrong. I miss your smile, your voice, your humor, your hugs, your stubbornness and even your political rants...I just miss YOU! You're always with me.....







Until we meet again, I love and miss you Grandpa!
Love,
Katie

This and that, March photos!
