Arms and Legs!

Everyone always asks us who we think Landon looks like ??????   It is funny how when I see a friends' baby I know right away whether it looks like the mom or dad; however,  it is so hard when it is your own child.   There are so many qualities of each of us that we see in Landon.  I feel that Landon has my cute little nose and some of my facial features.  And...hopefully he will keep my thick hair.  :)  When you look at  his arms and legs it is definitely a quality from daddy.  It is crazy how long and skinny his arms and legs are.  It will be so much fun to watch the changes over the months.  We both feel he is perfect!

Tummy time!

It is so hard to lay with Landon on the floor when we have hard wood floors; however, I will just have to put a blanket down and make it work.  Landon loves laying on his tummy.  I was worried the first time I laid him like this thinking he would scream but he loves it.  He makes all sorts of noises and of course Wally has to lay right next to him.

Newborn Pictures

Sweet baby Landon had his newborn pictures taken when he was 10 days old.  We were excited to have Jessica Richter take our pictures since she took our wedding pictures too.  Landon and I had our first outing as we traveled to Doniphan.  We tried to start him naked and he hates to be naked.  He ended up pooping all over her white blanket, so we put his diaper back on and swaddled him.  He also wouldn't get into a deep sleep so she could move him around so it took lots of time and patience.  He never did get into the deep sleep so we weren't able to take as many different ones as we wanted.  We just ended up doing a lot with him swaddled.  Then right before we were done we decided to try naked pictures one last time.  Sure enough we got some; however, in the process he again popped twice and peed all over another white blanket of Jessica's.  So, it is fun to look at those pictures knowing he is laying in poop and pee.  :)  Jessica and I laughed so hard we were trying not to wake him up.  It was definitely an experience.  Thanks Jessi!

My Project!

I bought this frame a while back at the antique store then my mom refinished it and attached wires to it.  Finally, I was able to get some pictures in it.  I am very pleased with how it turned out and it will be a great way to show off my little man!  

Oakley!

Oakley is definitely a cuddler!

Wally kept his distance the entire time.  He was interested in her but then again wasn't sure.  Wally isn't one to like other dogs.  

I'll keep my distance if you keep yours.

Scott, Carissa, and my parents traveled to North Platte to pick up Oakley.  Oakley is one of Dozer's puppies.  She is way too cute and lots of fun! 

Kurtis' hobby

I would have to say that I have a very creative husband with amazing talent.  He builds these model cars, paints them and designs them.  He isn't one to make them from the kits you buy, but rather he draws his own logos and personalizes them.  This car, he built for his good friend Brendon who actually races.  Hopefully this is what his car can look like next season.  Danger is the new indoor football team here in Grand Island.  None of the decals are stickers; Kurtis actually drew them and then painted them on there. Turned out pretty cool!  

Happy Birthday Wally!

Grandma brought Wally birthday cookies this weekend while she was here.  Spoiled puppy!!

Happy 2nd Birthday Wally!  It is so hard to believe we have had him for two years already.  This is Wally when we first picked him up in Grant.  I can't believe how little he was and all the dark colors on his fur.  I would have to say that Kurtis picked out a good one.  He is so lovable, great with kids (especially Landon), energetic, and definitely spoiled rotten!
