She's "tutu" cute

I've grown this big...

Caelyn Elise Buss

8 1/2 months

Lots of love in our home

I love Jason and Caelyn loves mom (and dad too!)

Caelyn meeting her great Grammy from Texas

Sporting our "courage caps" in support for a friend who went through chemo...she is an amazing girl with such a sweet spirit and her grandma made these hats for her to wear each week! Her grandma kept making them to raise money for Relay for Life!

Emily we LOVE you!!

Sprinklers!!!

Jason and his dad trenched the backyard and a good friend came over and helped Jason get all the sprinklers put together. It rained last week so we are hoping that this weekend Jason will be able to lay the forms for the curbing. We were also able to get some trees with Buy One Get One Free coupons from the Home Depot Garden Club, so we now have 8 new trees planted too!

Spring Fever

...Adorable...

Here are some pictures of our backyard in renovation. Jason has been terracing the back of the hill and we hired a man to come use his bobcat to take all of our extra dirt, and it was well worth it. He ended up taking 25 yards of dirt!!

Before

in progress

after...

The next step is sprinklers, 3 foot retaining wall, and sod!!! I can't wait to have a backyard to play in with Caelyn.

Happy Birthday Grandpa Jim

Celebrating Grandpa's birthday and getting some yummy yogurt

Uncle Greg and Auntie Alyssa

yeah we love dessert!

I can't believe that one day she'll fill this highchair!

We've got alot of body in our hair, good thing Dad found the hairbrush Mom misplaced! I am so amazed by how much hair she has, and it is getting so long and full!

So these days Caelyn in all about standing up...she has taken a few steps with help! She loves to grab your hands and pull herself from sitting to standing up! I'm afraid we are going to skip the crawling stage all together. In this clip you can see how strong her leg muscles are and hear her precious laugh.

Easter Pictures

Kenzlie and Caelyn wore matching dresses to church on Easter! Both girls were born in August of last year.

Grandma shot :)

I think that Caelyn will have allergies just like me, her eye kept watering and she had a runny nose all throughout the beginning of last week.

Angela's family...Caelyn was napping so she missed the photo shoot

anticipation of what the Easter Bunny brought her...

the toy is by far the most interesting

tasting the basket

checking how to launder these new clothes

Such a fun day filled with worship and family!

Flower made by Auntie Alyssa

Auntie- this picture is for you...it looks so cute in her hair! And I knew you would love it that I have updated the blog again!

I think she'll be an avid gardener just like her daddy

Throughly enjoying herself!

Here is a video of her playing one of her favorite games these days...peek-a-boo with grandpa!
