spoiled

So basically this little girl gets anything and everything she wants (from everyone too!) But can you blame us... look at that pouty little face. Spoiled I tell you!

6 Months

Well she will be 7 months in just a few days but we just had her 6 month check up so here goes:
- weighs 16lbs 6oz.
- 26inches
- started crawling a few weeks ago
- babbles dada, mama, and says this funny little ticka/tickle noise:)
- started eating solids a few weeks ago and has had nanas, yogurt, apples, sweet potato, and yogurt melts.
- she can go from crawling to a full sitting position. (Just mastered that one today. It used to be a sit/lean)
- sleeps about 11-12 hours a night and has two 2-3 hour naps
- has two little teefs
- likes to grab faces
- she is so easy to take anywhere... unlike her big sis;)
- not very easy to hold. She likes to lean over.
- suck her thumb sometimes:/
She really is just a sweetheart. We love her to pieces, so does Teegan. Sometimes she loves her a little too much and squeezes a little too hard but can't complain about that. We love you Tenley girl!!!

Halloween

This halloween we had a blast! We went over to Tonya and Ryan's to go trick-or-treating, along with Tara, Tighe, aunties, and the grandparents. The kids had so much fun and were totally into trick-or-treating. They would go up to the door, get candy, go to the next door, and so on. They were on a mission! They were so dang cute in their costumes too.

These two

These kids have a love/hate relationship. They fight like crazy but they are always excited to see each other and play. It's pretty funny but scary at times. And they just could not be any cuter.

My girl

I love this face. I swear she is just such a sweetheart! Can't get enough of her.

TWO

My little baby turned two years old on the 1st. I really can't believe it. We had a fun filled day at disneyland... just the three of us (me, Teeg, and Jer) Teegan had so much fun and loves all the rides. We have been watching all the disney moveies lately so it was fun to see her recognize the characters. We really love this chick. Happy Birthday Princess!!! We love you more than you will ever know.

Wow I have been so bad at updating lately but I just wanted to share a few pics. Last saturday was Tighe's first birthday party, it was so much fun. The kids had a blast playing at the park and with each other. Happy birthday Tighe... we love you!

Tea party

So I finally started a little etsy account and am selling hand stamped jewelry. Its called Tea part jewelry. My mom and I have been wanting to do this for a looooooong time and recently I decided what the heck lets just do it. So check it out! I only have a couple items listed but I will be adding to it often. I am really excited about it and I can't wait to start making more... It is just so fun!!!

The Other Half...

Well since my wife is asleep and I am a night owl tonight, I thought I might as well write a little blog post!

When Taisia and I met I knew right from the start that I liked her a lot. Shoot, I told her I loved her after about 3 weeks of dating (even though I knew at about 2). I really did love her too. I could never imagine loving anything more than her.
Then we get married and I think okay, now this is the most I could ever love someone...

BAM!! Teegan is born and my whole perspective of love has changed dramatically. The bar just got twice as high as it was before! Now love is something bigger than Taisia and me put together. It is a little girl. Our little girl! And right then I say to myself, now this is what love really is.


But guess what? The definition of love has changed once again. Tenley has now brought the bar to a whole new level. Now, I am not saying I love Taisia or Teegan less than Tenley, because that would just be untrue. I am just saying that the older I get the more ways I learn to love. I have my family to thank for that! One of the most important things I have learned throughout all of this is that it is impossible to love a little bit; it's all or nothing!


Please do not worry about the band-aid on Tenley; it was a gift from Teegan. Everyone had one!

for gaga and papa

Since Gaga and Papa are at the river I just know they are missing these faces. Here is a little something to hold you over for a couple more days. Love you guys

2 months

Wow time seriously flies... Tenley is already 2 months old. I am just lovin her to pieces.
Sometimes I just get the urge to bite those little cheeks off... but somehow I am able to control that;) This little babe is so smiley and just as sweet as can be. Here is what she is up to
-she loves her swing
-is sleeping 5-7 hour stretches at night
-can roll from her tummy to back
-loves being in the sling( I love it too... such a lifesaver sometimes)
-gives us the biggest smiles and the cutest coos
-not sure how much she weighs... I will update soon
-eats about every 3 hours
-very sweet and happy

The 4th

For the 4th we just had a little bbq with the fam. The kids played in the little pool and the moms made some yummy food. It was a fun day. Then we were so excited for Teegan to watch fireworks (she has a fireworks app on the Ipad and loves it) but the show was not too exciting. Boo! We still had a great day with our family
.

Love

Before I had Tenley I thought for sure there was no way I could love her like I love Teegan... I was WAY wrong. I love this little girl to pieces. It is amazing!!! I could just stare at her all day and tell her how beautiful she is. Love my girls so so so much.

daddy's little girl

Most people think Teegan is a mini Jeremy... I agree. They are not looking at the camera but I think they really look alike in these. I must say they are the cutest little daddy and daughter. I love them so so much

the many faces of Teegan

This girl has some serious personality. She cracks me up. These are some of the faces we ask her to make... its hilarious!

1 month

Of course this would come two weeks late right?... true Taisia style. Well baby Tenley is 1 month old and here is what she has been up to.
-she has been a pretty easy baby so far
-has very light blue eyes(for a baby)
-started giving us some smiles a few weeks ago.
-sleeps for a 4-6 hour stretch at night, then up about every 2 hours after
-just moved into size 1 diapers
-loves to be swaddled for sleep
-getting pretty nosy
-likes her tummy time
-just as cute as can be
We are loving our new addition. So is her big sis... Teegan asks for baby the second she gets up and gives her lots of kisses

mommy in training

I thought it would be fun to let Teegan try and feed Tenley. So I pumped and got a bottle ready. When I asked Teegan if she wanted to feed her sis she got all excited and lifted her shirt up ready to nurse her. It was so dang cute!!! She will make a great mommy someday.
