she's one!

Happy Birthday Jane

For Jane’s birthday, we took her to dinner at the Spaghetti Factory...where she was naughty, we sang to her... while she danced, and we helped her open some fun presents...which she loved! Then she got to eat her very own cake (made by her aunt Emmie) at Nana and Grandpa Grover’s house.

What a celebration, what a year, what a beautiful girl!! We could not possibly love her more!

it's a wonderful life!

Brandon, Jane and I enjoyed a very memorable Christmas! It was so exciting because we had Janie with us this year! Even though she was only 10 months when the festivities began, we had such a great time shopping for her, taking her to see Santa, singing Christmas songs, watching The Grinch (which she loved) and listening to her say "HO HO HO" when asked "Janie, what does Santa say?" It was so nice because we were able to spend time with a lot of our family and great friends. We loved hearing from so many of you and loved the pictures you sent. Thank you so much for remembering us and being a part of our lives. We have so many wonderful people surrounding us and feel so blessed! I'm pretty sure that next year will be our big year to send Christmas cards! Thanks again for remembering us! We love you!

she walks!

So Janie took her first steps last week
(Mon, January 8)

While smiling her biggest smile, Jane very cautiously wobbled away from her dad- seven whole steps in a row! For the first couple of days, she needed time to muster up courage before she would venture out on her feet. Now that she's comfy walking, she's really enjoying the new view and loves the attention she gets all day from her mama as she wanders from one end of the house to the other. It's so fun to see such a tiny (short especially) thing sauntering around with her little thumb in her mouth, and to hear a "woah!" each time she almost falls. Yea Janie!

welcome

hey! we're so glad you came!

now that we have a tiny one...jane,
our life is full of exciting details
that we would love to share with you!
