Christmas was great except for the fact that Jace was extremely sick. He woke up Christmas morning happy as can be, then he fell asleep around 8:30 a.m. and woke up to throw up, and he was throwing up every 20 min till around 1 after that. It was so sad, he was exhausted from throwing up and being so weak that he was sleeping while he was barfing. He didn't care much about the fun toys he got at all since he was so sick, which was sad for his first christmas. We went home and gave him a bath and he finnaly ate something and stopped throwing up. The next day he was feeling much better so, we got out all his toys that he got and he loved them.
This was him the next day. Still not 100% but much better!
Here is him in front of the Christmas tree, a few days before!
This snowman talks and moves, he thinks it is so funny.

















It was great to spend time with family and enjoy eachothers company. Even though Jace was sick, we still managed to have a great Christmas! Hope everyones was great!!

6 months/Turkey day!

Jace is 6 months now and I seriously can't belive it. People always say how fast time flies and I never quite understood till now. We are loving the stage he is in right now. He has such a fun little personality and keeps us so entertained. He is very snuggly wich I LOVE! His knew think is to grab your face with both hands and give you a big open mouthed kiss, it's more like he's knawing on your face, it cracks me up. He is starting to hold his arms out when you go to grab him it's like he's saying hold me, makes me feel so loved. He loves his daddy and lights up when Gabe gets home from work. The second he hears his voice he turns to see him and starts kicking his legs and squeeling in excitement, so cute! He's liking baby food a lot more, but would prefer human food. I fed him a little mashed potatoes on Thanksgiving, and he was loving it. Any time your eating anything he opens his mouth wide and tries to gab it. We adore him and are looking for the next milestones in his life, but also don't want him to grow too fast.

6 month stats
Height: 28.5"-96% Yes he's tall but it's to be expected:)
Weight: 17.5lbs-45% His cheeks weigh most of that I think;)
Head cir: 15.5"-68%

He's sitting up so well now which is so nice cause he is a lot happier being able to see more things.









































We went to pirate island for our nephews B-day and Jace saw this skeleton and thought hmm I wonder how this tastes, seeing as he has to taste everything.

















I know, kinda gross/creepy!


















Such a baldy! Ha we love him, Happy 6 months Jace!!






















Thanksgiving was great as usual. Between yummy food, great family, late thursday night craziness shopping, seeing my aunt get married on thanksgiving, and having Gabe home all weekend long, it was a very enjoyable holiday weekend!

I am so thankful for my life and the people that surround it that make life worth living!! Happy Thanksgiving.

My sis Cami with her niece and Nephew, such a cute auntie!

















Love my family... and the yummy food!


































My dad is an amazing cook and made the main dishes for our feast. We even had a smoked turkey wich was divine, and so moist!

















Nicole made these cute Thanksgiving treats with our names on them where we were sitting, so creative!

















That night my mom and sisters and I went out in the craziness at 10 p.m. to do some shopping, we attempted to go to toys r us, but the line was waaaay too long, you had to be nuts to wait in it, not to mention it was freezing, so we hit up some other stores that weren't as bad but still annoyingly crouded. We stayed out till 2 a.m. and got some great stuff, it was a fun girls night.
I didn't capture any pics of our next day of thanksgiving with Gabes side of the fam, there was great food and great company... lets just say I ate way too much, but hey it's only once a year so you gotta get your feel in right? It was a great fun filled weekend!

We also got to go on a dat just Gabe and I, these are rare these days cause Jace is usually with us, so it was so nice to get out. We went to dinner and met up with our friends Christie and Scottie to see Unstoppable. Thanks to my parents for watching Jace for us. It was a much needed break!
