Harvest Time

Its Harvest Time here in Kansas and the wheat is doing really well. The Lord is blessing us with a great crop and we are very thankful. While my mother and sister Natalie were here, we went out and took Eve to the field to ride in the tractor with Tyler. She had a great time and we took some pictures of her there. Enjoy.

Bath Time Fun

Here is a short video I took while Eve was in the bath yesturday. You can see how she goes back and forth and is trying to swim in the tub. It just cracks me up. And yes the video is PG for baby nudity.

Father's Day - Then and Now

So it was Tyler's 2nd Father's Day and I thought it would be fun to show a picture from last year and one from Sunday. How things have changed. Happy Father's Day Tyler and to our Dads.

One Year Old

Well Eve is now officially one year old and I can not believe how fast this first year has gone. She just continues to blossom right in front of our eyes. She is talking up a storm and repeats lots of words that we say to her. This morning she said "waffle", mainly because its her favorite breakfast. One of my favorite things she says is monkey sounds. We ask her what a monkey says and she opens her mouth really big and says "oohh oohh" type sounds. I love it. She is not yet walking, but loves to be walked around and we are hoping in the next few weeks to see those coveted first steps. She is an extreme water lover and I can't wait until we start swimming lessons in 2 weeks. We have been going to the pool a couple times a week and Eve loves splashing around and doesn't mind going under. We end up spending over an hour in the pool because any less and she throws a fit. And one of the new things she is doing is loving on her things and people more. She loves to give hugs and open mouth kisses. She spends a good amount of time loving on her favorite pink monkey. Someone asked if she was chewing on it,but she really was just giving it a nice long kiss. I am working on teaching her to close her mouth. Here are some recent pics and some from yesturday. Warning picture overload.

Enjoying her cake!

Holding onto her favorite funky monkey
