"Ta", "Ma" and Hugs for Mommy




So, my sweet daughter who can very clearly say "bible", "meow", "baby", "papa", etc. continues to call my sister Steph "Ta"...and her very understanding boyfriend Tom (does it get any easier?) is "Ma" or "Bo". I don't pretend to know, but I do know how much she loves them! We had fun with them here for New Year's Eve along with some good friends. Needless to say Kate didn't make it to midnight.:)


She's learned how to give great big squeezy-your-neck hugs. My resolution is get a lot more of them!:)

Visit to Rockford








The day after Christmas found us in the car on a 13 hour trip to see Jared's grandparents. While the ride wasn't "fun"; the visit was! We got to spend a lot of time with Katie and John in their home, and also running around Nancy's hometown. Not only was it fun seeing family and the city of Rockford, but while we were there it SNOWED 8 glorious inches...what fun to watch Kate enjoy another simple pleasure of this earth with those she loves most.
