About Me

My photo
I am a 27 year old married mother of a beautiful, curly headed toddler named Easton and precious (and precocious) puppy named Ritzy. I have 3 blogs. The first blog is our family blog. Enjoy being nosey. Ha! The second blog is for the journey we have embarked on for our puppy. At almost 5 years old, our sweet Ritzy was diagnosed with calcium oxalate bladder stones. He had surgery to remove the stones. This blog is to document (and help others) our journey in saving Ritzy so he gets the long and healthy life he deserves. The third blog is for my "professional" life. It references my lovely Etsy store and all of the loveliness that inspires me on the wonderful world of Etsy

11 weeks....

These pictures and the corresponding video were all taken yesterday. Easton turned 11 weeks yesterday - next week he turns 12 weeks (3 months old). I am going to cry. Where does time go!?

Look at our happy little man!

Easter - Updated! Added video!

We hope everyone had a fantastic Easter, we sure did!

The Easter Bunny came to our house and brought Easton some goodies! Ritzy got some goodies too! How nice of the Easter Bunny to stop by! Doesn't Easton look like such a precious little man in his Easter outfit!? Love it!



We couldn't get a decent picture of the three of us to save our lives! Ha! None of us would look at the camera at the same time (Easton!) That stinker!



Here is E-man and Daddy at brunch!


E-man and Mommy at brunch


Easton and Grammy! She sure loves her little Grandbaby! The Easter Bunny even left some goodies for Easton at Grammy and Grampy's house too! What a clever rabbit!


Look at that chunky monkey's face! Those pretty blue eyes!


And finally, at the end of the day's festivies - one tuckered baby boy....


Here are 2 videos with Easton smiling and "talking" (couldn't get the sound to work in the upload though!)

10 weeks....

Easton is 10 weeks this week....can't believe how fast time flies.

Yesterday Grandma and Grandpa called up and asked if Easton wanted to come in for an impromptu photo session. Grandpa was going to be in taking a few quick shots and wanted little E-man to come in.... the result? Aw....


Look at those blue eyes - he DID get something from mommy! :-)


Our smiley little man did NOT want to smile for this picture, we put that hat on him last minute and he was very displeased! But he looks like such a little buddy in his outfit!

Last week's happenings!

Easton had a very exciting week last week.

On Tuesday, E-man came with mom to ensemble practice. He got to meet mom's friends and was adored by all. He also got to spend some time hangin' with K-rey (Pastor Ken Reynolds). Ken is one of the Worship Pastors at our church and married Ryan and I. Easton is his first baby (from the few weddings he has performed), so he and E wanted a picture together.
Hambones. :-)

On Wednesday we went to visit Easton's Uncle Ben and Aunt Alicia and his cousins Ellie and Ava. It is so fun to see how big Easton and Ellie are getting. Ellie is 6 days older than Easton, but he has surpassed her in the weight and length department! (Easton 9 weeks, Ellie 10 weeks)









And on Friday, it was fairly warm and sunny out, so Easton had his first adventure outside as he and mom, dad, grandma and grandpa (and of course, the pups) went out to the dock to survey the lake. :-) We all can't wait until Spring and Easton's first boatride! :-)

FINALLY starting this thing!

I have been meaning to really start up this blog a while ago, but the demands of a newborn have not allowed me to do so until now!

Easton is 9 weeks old today and he is doing great! He is sleeping 6-7 hours at night, he is cooing and "talking" to us all the time and smiles like crazy! We love to play little games with him. I have loved every stage he has gone through so far and he is just getting more and more fun! He is getting chunkier by the minute and we love it!

Here are some pictures from the past couple of weeks to get everyone up to date!


The last day in the hospital

Easton LOVES his playgym! He rolls over from tummy to back on it and loves to "bat" at the toys and "talk" to them!
