Then and Now

What we've been up to...

Enjoying our time together.

Cheering on the Icabods. (Uncle Kaleb is a grad assistant.) 

Sleeping in a big girl bed! Very successful transition.

Learning how to cut.

Making messes! Let me say...this was not fun to clean up.

Growing, growing and growing. He is days away from crawling
AND most importantly HE IS NAPPING (in his bed, without my help)!!
 Hallelujah! Praise the Lord.
