Now You're My Whole Life

On Oct 10th Ryan and I celebrated our 4 year wedding anniversary. Since it was a Thursday we ordered food from one of our favorite Japanese restaurants and enjoyed a night with our boy.  On Saturday my parents came over and watched Vann while we went to Allie and Will's wedding. It was beautiful and the weather was perfect. There's nothing like a wedding on your anniversary weekend to remember the vows we made on our big day.   The sunset was gorgeous!  Happy Anniversary Dossinator! I am beyond thankful for all he does for our family! He is the hardest worker, best cook, sweetest father, man of God, and loves me! I could not ask for more!  On Sunday this was my view while relaxing after the perfect massage at Chateau Elan! Ryan looked at me as soon as we walked in the spa and said, "I feel so relaxed right now!" It was fabulous! We got a couples massage, enjoyed the jacuzzi, and enjoyed the peace and quiet together. It was a great day and we...

Our little boy is growing up so fast. I know everyone with kiddos says that, but now I know it's true! Sad, but true. His personality is SHINING through. We had to work through a few kinks earlier on this month, but now it seems that parenting is going a lot smoother. Every. Single. Night. from 3 weeks until 7 weeks he would cry from around 5:30 - 8 pm. We chalked it up to everything and then came to the conclusion that it was colic. Well, one night Mom babysat and said she thought it was his tummy. It was hard to tell once the crying started because it got so intense. I started focusing in on what I was eating and did away with all wheat, soy, dairy, and corn. So, now I eat rice, veggies, fruit, almond milk, and proteins. We also started using Little Tummy's Gas Drops. I now know my nutrition was the cause of crying for 4 weeks, but since it was healthy I didn't think twice. I am glad Mama mentioned his tummy. Now, we enjoy our evenings. Ryan kept thi...

Vann's Newborn pictures were fabulous! Brittany with Nine Sixteen Photography did the most amazing job with Vann! I nicknamed her the baby whisperer. Ryan and I got to take a couple of photos with Vann as well! Our session was for two hours, but after the first hour Vann wanted to wake up and party. That didn't work out well because we needed him quiet to position him for photos. So, we headed back two weeks later and captured a couple more! Thanks Brittany for your patience with us and sharing your gift of photography.  

Yesterday, we took a trip north to Jaemor Farm. Our friends Colleen and Michael and their sweet son, Cohen, met us there. We enjoyed some lots of yummy grub and walking around the farm. Vann slept in his carrier, so he didn't get to help pick out our pumpkin. Dossinator picked out a good one and I bought some great fruits and veggies for the week!  It was a beautiful day with friends!
