Landon's Baptism Pictures

Landon's Baptism

This past Sunday we celebrated Landon's baptism at our church, Evergreen Ministries. Landon was such a little trooper and he did great the whole day!! We were kind of nervous on how Landon would do during church b/c the pastor announced before the service that he would be doing the baptisms (there were 4 of them) after the sermon. We all thought....oh great...how are our babies going to last the whole time!!! I had to take Landon out of the service during the sermon to feed him b/c he was getting fussy and I new he wouldn't last the whole time, let alone for the baptism!! He did great!!! Pastor Tom put the water on Landon's head and apparantely Landon's eyes got really big and he started kicking his legs and moving his arms. He didn't seem to mind one bit. Kennidee was chatting away up in front of church too....Jason and I kept having to shush her b/c she kept talking!! She said..."no put water on Landon's head" and "what's Pastor Tom doin"!! Hilarious. We had lunch right after the service in the courtyard of our church. It was nice to have it there b/c I doubt everyone would have fit in our house!! Both Kennidee and Landon feel asleep on the way home. We were hoping Kennidee would stay sleeping when we brought her inside, but that didn't happen.....she ended on the couch and slept next to daddy for an hour. Landon and mommy took a much needed nap too. What a wonderful day!!! Enjoy the picts....what a handsome little man!! =)

Fall Pictures-Our Family

Here are a couple of recent pictures of our family of four. We recruited my dad to take some fall pictures of us, so he met us at Wedgewood Park one day. It was the week when it was so nice out, so we weren't freezing our butts off. It was so hard to get both kids looking at the camers!! Kennidee was a little stinker the whole time, she did not want her picture taken and we again had to get out a sucker so she would smile for a couple of pictures. She was more interested in feeding the ducks and running around(typical 2 year old). Landon was more interested in looking at the leaves on the ground then looking at grandpa!! Oh well, we did get a couple of good picts.

Fall Pictures-Landon

Here are a couple of adorable fall pictures of our little boy!! What a cutie!! The first couple are of him in the leaves at Wedgewood Park. We tried to get a cute Fall picture of him and Kennidee, but his sister wasn't cooperating. She would just hold Landon for a minute and she squeezed him so tight that he had enough. The last couple are of him in a basket(I'm not taking credit for that idea.....I stole the idea from my friend Missy who had a cute picture of her son in a similar basket) in front of our flowers and corn stalk in the front of our house. He is such a little ham and loves to smile and ham it up for mommy and the camera. Enjoy!!!

Fall Pictures-Kennidee

Here are a couple of adorable Fall pictures of Kennidee. I wanted to get a couple of Fall pictures of her before it got to cold and last week was perfect weather. The flowers on the steps of our house were still alive(thanks to Jason), so Kennidee and I went outside to take a couple of pictures. I told her she needed to wear her hat b/c it was cold outside and suprisingly she didn't put up a fuss. I did have to bribe her with a sucker so she would actually sit by the flowers and smile...it works every time!!! You tell that girl she's getting a sucker and she'll do anything!!! What a cutie!

Happy Halloween!!

Happy Halloween!! Just wanted to post a couple of pictures from our many Halloween festivities. The Sunday before Halloween we all had fun carving our pumpkins. Daddy went online to find drawings to put on our pumpkins....Jason and I arn't very artistic, so this is as close as we got. Kennidee really wanted to put Barney on her pumpkin, but we couldn't find a cut-out of him, so she settled with a horse. She is really into horses right now, so she was carrying around her pumpkin all morning with the horse paper on it. We weren't sure if she would let us carve it since she was so attached to the horse paper, but in the end she was excited to see it light up. Jason carved a cat and pumpkin on his, I had a lizard, and Landon had a smiley face. Kennidee was so excited to see them all lite up on the porch!!

I was able to get a couple of pictures of Kennidee and Landon together with their Halloween shirts on. I love the one of Kennidee showing Landon the little pumpkin. She is such a good big sister and is now sharing most of her toys with her little brother(we'll see how long that lasts).

This year Kennidee was a bumble bee and Landon a cow. Kennidee absolutely refused to wear her hat and threw a fit when I tried to put it on her head!! I even bribed her with a sucker, but nothing worked. I think I got one picture of her with the hat on...oh well...at least she wore the costume. We had our friends, The Dresslers, over for pizza and trick or treating. They live a block over, so it was convient for them to just walk over our house. The kids had a blast playing together and going house to house. Kennidee & Noah made themselves at home at the first house...they walked right inside and Noah started to take his costume off. They both saw the toys and wanted to play!! Too funny. I think Kennidee had 4 suckers that night.....needless to say she didn't go to sleep right away and talked in her crib for like an hour!! Jason and I enjoyed eating some of her candy!!! Yumm Yumm Can't wait for next year! Enjoy

Happy Halloween!!

I can pedal!!

Here are a couple of pictures of Kennidee on her big girl bike. We were all outside the other day and Kennidee decided to get out her bike. She usually just sits on it and then pushes it with her feet on the ground. Well, much to our suprise she put her feet on the pedals and started moving!! Jason and I were so proud of her. I ran into the house and grabbed the camera so we could catch this moment on film!! Our little girl is growing up fast.
We're so proud of you Kennidee!!!

Landon-Snapshots

Just a couple of snapshots of Landon. He is quite the little ham and is very quick to smile. He is now laughing a lot and loves when mommy says "get you get you" and when I sing "ring around the rosie". I was singing it to Kennidee the other day and Landon was laughing and lauging(he was probably laughing at mommy singing!!) He loves his baths, playing on his play gym, his big sister, and his swing(he still takes all his naps in the swing(swaddled)....whatever keeps him sleeping!!) Enjoy the picts of our little man.
