Baby Food

After doing some reading and talking to other moms, I decided to make my own baby food for Lydia. I, like almost every mom, am pretty busy. I was worried it wouldn't be convenient. However, I love the idea of feeding her home made stuff. I'm also big on the idea of saving some money where I can!


It has turned out to be super easy! I bought a few different bags of frozen veggies. I also bought an avocado. I steamed the veggies in the microwave and pureed them in the magic bullet. Then I just scooped it into an ice tray and I have baby food! I freeze them and then pop out a cube when it's dinner time. She loves green beans, avocado, and bananas! Next week we'll be trying carrots. Mmmmmmm....





Oh, and the bib is just a little shout out to her uncle :-)

Home Improvement

Part of a wall!

The whole wall!!!
Almost ready for paint!

Eric started a project this month. He is making the large (14x24 ish) bedroom in our lower level into two bedrooms. He has the walls up and sheet rocked. It is looking great!! One of the rooms will be Caitlyn's and the other will be our office. Caitlyn is excited to start painting it the grey and fuchsia colors she picked out! Our 3 bedroom house is now a 4 bedroom house:-)

It's been too long!

It's been 3 months since I've tried to post anything on here. Good grief! I blame the holidays:-)

I'll sum up those three months with one word. BUSY! I've been taking tons of pictures, though.

Since a picture is worth a thousand words.....I'll let them catch you up!

Food! I've been mashing up bananas, green beans and carrots for Lydia.

Yes, she is now 5 months old. Can you believe it?!?




Caitlyn is doing an awesome job playing the trumpet!

Antiquities pictures. So adorable!

Merry Christmas!

Lydia was dedicated on December 20th.

Happy Halloween!!
