Here are some new pictures of our lovebug...can't believe that she'll be 8 months on Saturday!

Playtime on the floor with some blocks...she is getting very good at sitting up and balancing on her own. Caelyn does not like to be on her tummy at all, so needless to say has not figured out how to crawl...which is ok with me for now

so many things to tell my mama (she has learned to make the sound "mama" and says it all the time!!!)

Jason is in Mexico this week with the students so Caelyn and I have missed him greatly! We can Skype with him but I think that Caelyn wants to touch him because when she sees him in the screen she reaches for him and then whimpers since she can't get to him. So sweet. She was nursing and his voice came on the anwsering machine, she stopped and wanted to get up to look for him...we are going to be so excited to see him Saturday!

kisses for my girl

loves for momma

Caelyn has two teeth on the bottom...the first one came in March 18th! These are the most beautiful teeth I have ever seen, and I have seen alot! We hope you all have a Happy Easter as we celebrate the greatest sacrifice of love ever made.

Much love,

Angela and Caelyn

Jason's artwork on cupcakes

I got a cupcake decorating book for my birthday and we were excited to make some cupcakes to celebrate Greg's birthday! He enjoys golfing so Jason made a golf course complete with sand traps and all...lots of fun! Looking forward to the next birthday so we can make some more!

Hurray for March

At 7 months old Caelyn is getting good at sitting up on her own, very talkative, can drink out of a cup pretty well with a little help...it's really cute sometimes she uses her tongue like Penny to lap up the water, and loves carrots and sweet potatoes.

what a precious gift we have been entrusted with

Spring is just around the corner

Caelyn is just growing and growing! She weighed 17.5 lbs and was 27.5 inches long at her doctor's appointment this month! We had to get some new p.j.'s with footies in size 12 months because she is so tall!! No teeth have popped through yet but she is seriously teething...so that precious smile may be changing any time! Here are some pictures of us earlier this week enjoying some sunshine...

Mommy and Caelyn working in the yard while Daddy was pulling some weeds!

Pretty purple flowers...Caelyn LOVES the outdoors!

Happy Valentine's Day

and here's a preview of our 6 month photo shoot...

our hearts are wrapped up in this cute little girl!!

Caelyn was so excited to turn 6 months old. You can tell by the excitement in her face!

precious profile shot

ready to go for a ride!

If you didn't already know Caelyn LOVES to jump. Here she is caught in action

screaming with delight.

Playtime with Mommy is always fun!!!

Watch the video's below to check out what Caelyn is up to now!!

Many firsts....

Last weekend we went on a trip up to Hume Lake with the Youth for winter camp. There were over 1,000 students and counselors that weekend and so there was alot of excitement! It was an amazing weekend with a great speaker, worship band, and SNOW!!

Here we are by the dinning hall with the Lake behind us.

At night it would get pretty chilly and so we would zip Caelyn up in Jason's snow jacket which Angela proudly wore. Everyone stopped us and commented on how cute it was to see that little smiling face popping out of the jacket!

While we were at camp is SNOWED! Here is a shot of our car at the beginning of the day before the snow really started to come down.

Here is a shot from our room's balcony. behind that tree in the middle is the Tube Run.

Angela and Caelyn on the balcony. Caelyn loved watching the snow fall!!

Another new thing was this cool backpack we got off our registry. It has a back support for the person wearing it. a 6 point harness for Caleyn and then a diaperbag backpack with extra storage. Caleyn loved riding around in it and really enjoyed watching broom hockey!! during the game she began to squeal and scream - someone told us we have a future broom hockey player on our hands.

And another milestone has come......

RICE CEREAL

enjoying it so much that she tried to grab the bowl from Angela

helping with the spoon.....

This was the actual first bite and you can see the confusion. right afterwards she put down the little red cup and went right for the spoon

and of course a video to help you feel the moment:)
