Edit

There is a mistake in the sugar cookie recipe. Please note that it calls for 3/4 CUP of butter (i fixed it in the recipe). Just in case you printed it out. Also, I used Almond flavoring instead of vanilla in the frosting. They make cute Valentine cookies too! Thanks Amber for the email!!!

Random Pics

We have had an AWESOME January! Lots of time with family and friends.....who could ask for more.

Snuggle Time

I found this video tonight. I forgot how cute it is!! Hutch looks so helpless in this video. Poor baby Hutch.... too much lovin and snuggles! This video makes me smile, hope it will you too!

(p.s don't forget to pause the play list so you can hear Tess's sweet voice and my country voice) :-)

First BIG Boo Boo!

Today we were out enjoying the nice weather when Tess had a bike wreck. She landed on her face.... Poor thang, she cried a little while and then got up and said "It will get better and I will try again tomorrow." She then thought about it somemore, got upset and wanted me to carry her all the way home (1/2mile...all 38 pounds) plus push Hutch in the stroller and wrestle the bike. I DID it! I wish I would have had a camera. She also told me she wanted to call her friends and tell them she hurt herself. Awe.....
P.S. Tess agreed to take these pics. I asked her if she wanted me to take a pic to show her daddy when he got home. We showed him and then he took her to get ice cream....all better. This is a pic of Tess this morning with her swollen lip.

This is such a funny pic of Hutch! He looks like he is up to something. Something besides carrots....
Lovin' his bath!

My Sassy Girl!

Tess has gotten her own ideas about what she wants to wear these days. She wakes up in the morning telling me things like..."I want to wear my blue jean skirt today!" She is hysterical!
Tess all dressed and ready for a big day at Mother's Day out. She told me today that she got in trouble for singing too loud! haha! Sing your heart out, Tess!

Hutch Man!

Hutch's life at 7 months. Hutch is loving his baby food! He likes all kinds. He goes with the flow and doesn't complain when we are out and about. He loves to be outside (when it's not too cold), ride in his stroller, check out EVERYTHING going on around him- I can hardly get him to sit still for a bottle these days. He is still so sweet and loves to cuddle. Hutch adores Tess and watches her every move. He sometimes whimpers when she leaves the room or doesn't pay him any attention. It is so cute and sweet!

This is for Granny!!!

Have a great day, we love you!

River Market Park

Tess eating pizza at Gusanio's. Yum. Yum.

On Friday, we headed downtown to the Park. What a fun and adventurous place! Tess loved running through the tunnels and climbing up the rock walls. She is such a precious adventure everyday. We love playing with you, Tess!! Hutch was along for the ride....sooner than later we will be chasing you, Hutch!!

Wonder Place

Tess had a ball at the Wonder Place last week. We went to celebrate our friend Abby's birthday. Tess loves to dress up in costumes.
