4 months old!

Teagan is 4 months old today! He sits up pretty good if being supported. Earlier this week he rolled over while I was in the other room (happy and sad moment). He's "talking" more and more, but we haven't got a full fledged laugh out of him yet. We don't know his weight or height yet we go to the doctor tomorrow right before we leave town. I hope the shots don't bother him too bad or it may be a long ride to Indiana!

Z is for...

...zucchini. I usually like zucchini fried or grilled, but I didn't have time tonight so we just steamed it in the microwave.

Y is for...

...yard. Although it looks a lot prettier in the spring...I love our yard! It's so big and I can't wait until Teagan's old enough to run around in it!

X is for...

xylophone. I was looking for toys to put on Teagan's Christmas list today and I saw this xylophone and thought I better take a picture because not much else starts with X.

W is for...

...wishes. I wish I could be on the beach right now!

So this weekend was very busy for me. It was my turn to help lead worship at church so I was there 3:30-7:30 Saturday and 8:00-11:45 Sunday morning. Along with that we had other "weekend" things that we did. Anyway long story short I didn't have time to post pictures and my brain wasn't functioning and I didn't get pictures taken.

So today I am doing 2 letters this morning and one this evening.


U is for....unplugged! I watch way to much tv and I've decided on cutting back. I haven't set an amount of time for watching, right now I'm just trying to catch myself when I get bored and would usually turn on the tv and instead find something more productive to do!

V is for...Vandeveers as in my Aunt Merna and Uncle Lee. We did have Sunday lunch with them yesterday like we usually do on Sunday's but I forgot to take a picture of them! :(

T is of course for...

...Teagan! Tonight we went to Roscoe's Fall Festival. The funnel cakes were very good!

S is for...

...supper. Tonight I had bacon wrapped filet, red potatoes bought from the farmers market, and asparagus (that was bought on sale at Highlander aka Kroger). YUMMMMMY!

R is for...

...Ryan and Reneé. Yes that's right I'm using myself for this letter! The letter "R" means a lot to me. Before I got married it was the only letter in my intials...Reneé Ruth Reedy (RRR). I always thought that was so unique and was a little sad about the change when I got married. Since Ryan starts with a "R" I guess that takes place of the "R" I lost!

Q is for...

...quilts. These are some of the quilts we have at our house. I think I have 4 more than this, but they are being used. The top quilt was found in my grandma's house after she passed and my aunt had it finished and gave it to me for my wedding. The second one I'm not completely forsure but I think it was my mom's mom's. The bottom one of the ladder was made for Ryan when he was a baby. Teagan is sitting on the one his Aunt LaLa made him. All of my quilts were either made especially for someone in our house or passed down.

P is for...

...peacefully sleeping! Isn't he so cute when he's asleep! He also has his Pilot shirt on so that's two "P's"

O is for...

...outlet mall. This outlet mall is in a suburb of Chicago and it's an inside mall not an outside mall like most outlets. It was a fun day with just Ryan, Teagan, and I!

N is for...

...niece. This is Addisyn Kaye Jackson and she is my only niece right now and she is such a doll. She is going to turn one at the beginning of October. She is at such a fun stage right now. The second picture is of her saying "What's that?"

L and M

L is for Leigh Ann roasting a "M" marshmallow! Tonight we had a bon fire with a bunch of friends and family!

K is for...

...kisses! This is one of my favorite pictures of these two. Right before Teagan was born Addi started giving kisses to people. On this particular night she would only given kisses to her new cousin.

This is one of the first times that Teagan knew what kisses were and he would open his month when we came close. I love baby open mouth kisses!

J is for...

...jump. I saw this grasshopper on my deck and he decided to say hello by jumping onto my screen door.
