Quick update

Just a quick update to share some photos and videos which I haven't posted yet.

He was playing after breakfast one morning in the living room while I was cleaning the kitchen.  After awhile, I didn't hear anything, so I went in to check and this is what I found.

Poor guy must have been tired.

Believe it or not, we have about another 6 inches on top of this and an expected 6-12 inches to come!



The wind was really bad so we ended up with some funny-looking snow drifts

Bath time!

As far as updates, we're all doing well.  I'm feeling pretty good and my bleeding has stopped, so as soon as I resume my cycle, I'll be getting on some progesterone supplements.  Hopefully physically I'll start feeling better and it will help with the next pregnancy.  I still have "episodes" where my heart races, I feel sick, dizzy, extremely tired, and fearful/anxious over absolutely nothing.  It seems so silly to feel that way, but when something sets me off (sometimes if goes off on its own), it shuts me down for the day.  I've never had this problem before so hopefully we can get it fixed.  I'd like to also set up an appointment with a natropathic doctor for a general wellness check to see if there's anything deeper that causing all this.

William has his one year doctor's appointment today, so we'll see how everything is going with him as far as growth and development.  I'll update on that later.

Happy Friday!

Birthday down at the Farm!

I can't believe almost one year ago, our little guy was just being introduced to the world!  What a year it has been.  William amazes us every day with his huge personality and happy disposition (most days).  It's so much fun watching him grow into a little boy, developing his own character traits.

This past Saturday we had a party in honor of his first birthday.  I had a lot of fun planning the party (which Mom graciously held at her house) and it's so funny to be planning a party for my child now!  We decided on a Farm theme.

He wanted to make sure he was dressed appropriately...right down to the farm diaper!


Wearing the overalls that Nonna (Zenith's Mom) made him







"Pin the tire on the tractor" game


Chicken Feed (chex mix)


Chuckwagon Chili and cornbread

Tractor wheels (oreos) and hay bales (rice crispie treats)

Cousin Joe came very appropriately dressed with his John Deer hat!



It's party time!

Birthday boy trying out the chili and cornbread

Cousin Nicholas was less than amused and found sleeping much more enjoyable than all this partying



Daddy and Birthday Boy trying on Dan and Joe's hats (both of which were too small for these guys' heads!)

Time for some birthday games!

Naomi

Timmy



Just a bit off



I decided the kids would enjoy doing a craft so we made Farm Animal Puppets out of paper bags

Getting instructions



They made cows, pigs and chickens



Time for some cake



William's first taste of cake

Mmmmm, I think I might like this





"Yup, best when you smear it on your head"

Lots of lovely presents

Pillowcase made by Mom

It was quite a festive day and the birthday boy was pretty worn out by the end of it.  

I know I haven't been doing a lot of updating lately, but I have a few more pictures and updates I'd like to add soon so stay tuned.
