The Blizzard...

Here are a couple of videos of how much snow we have. The front yard is not as bad as the back. We probably have 3 feet of snow with 5 feet drifts. It's crazy.The first video is the front and the second is of the back.

We are Family

There is nothing better than getting to spend time with family. I just love my parents and the more we are away from them, the more I appreciate every second I get to spend with them. We learn so much from our parents and whether we like it or not we are a product of our parents. I have learned that a child is a blank slate and every person is remotely who they are because of the way their parents raised them. I am thankful to say that I am thankful for my parents and the for the Christ-like upbringing I was given and in return to my children I can only hope to do as great a job as they did.

Decision... Decisions... Decisions...

Being a new mom has posed many new important decisions for what is best for my child. Everyone wants the best for their own child and what is best for one child may be completely different from what is best for another. So when I write about what I feel is the best for my child may not be something some agree is the best decision. But in my heart of hearts this is what Chris and I have agreed is best for our child at this point. Currently one of our important decisions we have made is whether or not to feed Micah store bought baby food. Now I am not a health nut but I don't see why as a parent we can't just make our children their own food. I mean I am not eating food out of a can so why should he. The convenience factor is definitely there but as a stay at home mom my #1 job is to take care of my child and a few hours of cooking for him is something that I find to be a satisfying and rewarding decision. So as Micah prepares to eat his first new foods. I am going to be preparing these meals for him.

Micah's first attempt at cereal

Yesterday we tried to give Micah his first cereal. I think it went pretty good. He ended up getting frustrated with me because I couldn't get him the food fast enough so in between spoon fulls he would scream. Just a beginning of the first he will have.
