Dalton is 17 Months....and I am still not the best blogger

Well life around our house is busy as usual I thought when I started staying home I would have more time to blog, but it seems that the opposite is true. I was so blessed to be able to consult again at an elementary school. I go to work on Tuesday and Thursday from 9-2. My Aunt is able to keep Dalton while I am working. I am also in my fifth class of graduate school and will be done next December..so life is busy, but we are having a blast living it!

We went to take Dalton's picture yesterday with one of my best friends.....we were so amazed and she was pretty proud of herself. In 10 minutes and with the help of a few skittles we were able to take some really cute pictures of Dalton. Here are a few..
Jackson is in a dual language kindergarten program this year and doing really well in school. He loves going to school with Aaron everyday and being in Waller schools.

Dalton is offically on the move....

After much anticipation Dalton has finally decided to try this walking thing. He is still very wobbly, but has began walking right before he turned 14 months.

Here are the beginning attempts at his walking.....he falls and sounds like he is fake crying, but we have figured out that it is what he does when he sees a camera. So I guess he is smiling for the camera. Just click below and you can see him go ....

Dalton starting out...

And here is Dalton walking ....YEAH!! I am still figuring out how my camera works so sorry for turning it sideways....I know now which way to leave it.

Man on the move

Here is one of my new favorite pictures of Jackson .... I just can eat him up.

Legos,legos,legos......

Jackson loves Legos and they have become a major part of our daily life. Today we have been building some new inventions as he calls them.

While Jackson HATES to have his picture taken Dalton cannot seem to get enough of it....we take random photos throughout the day just because he makes the cutest noise and has a silly smile.


By the way....yes I did cut all of my hair off for Locks of Love. All 13 inches gone in a couple of minutes. Was so scary, but well worth it!

One last attempt....and six months in review

Well I am making another strong attempt ....... I am hoping that I can get this blogging thing down so that y'all can keep up with our crew. So here is some major highlights..

1. Dalton's Surgery was a success
2. Jackson continues to grow and starting to play sports.
3. Aaron and I were able to go to Chicago for our anniversary.
4. The boys turned one and six....wow how time flies.

Here are some pictures and I hope to post some more tomorrow....

Praise God Dalton came through his surgery in November...The doctors were amazing and we really saw God's provision through this entire season of our life.

He has a bunch of tubes and wires so he could not really move. We were so happy that he stayed happy even though he could not move.

No more chest tube....we are getting ready to go home. God is GOOD.....

Jackson played football and soccer ....

Here are a few from our trip to Chicago...our game got rained out at Wrigley....we were a little bummed, but at least I have been inside Wrigley Field.
