Grandpa Mikey retires

My dad worked over 32 years for the lapd. I am so proud of him and so happy he is retired and able to relax. Before his last day the kids and I along with my sis in law and niece and nephew and my mom went to visit him at work. The kids had a blast and Landon was so impressed and wants to be a cop now. He even got to see a bad guy locked up. We had such a fun time and here are some pics from the day.

Brycen's a half year old

It's crazy to me how fast the first year goes. If only pregnancy went that fast. Our baby Bryce is now 6 months and weighing in at 12lbs 4oz. Teeny tiny.

At 6 months he is starting to be a mover. He gets around either by rolling or army crawling. He never sits still and loves to be held. He is still sleeping through the night and I just love seeing his face light up when I walk in the room. He eats like a pig and can say mama and bubba. He is such a happy baby and joy to be around.

Landon's 4!

My Baby is 4!


I don't know what I have been so caught up in that the past four years have flown by, but it needs to slow down. Way down. I have enjoyed every minute watching my sweet baby turn into this independent, helpful, smart, funny dreamer of a little boy. His imagination astounds me most of the time and his memory is impecable. He is without a doubt going to grow up into a man I will be proud of.
