Sledding 2014

Our first snow this winter was kind of pathetic!  Just enough to cover the grass.  We got up early and got all of our snow clothes on and headed out!

Everybody got a turn!  Tim would like to tell you all FOUR girls enjoyed it!  He is so nice and lets me ride the most Smile

Cassidy enjoyed being outside but you know how those snowsuits are with babies- she could hardly move!

We attempted to use the pool…. but it didn’t work :/  We had a blast!  Hoping for some more white stuff today!

New years!

We went to the countdown to noon years at a church in town.  Cassidy was recovering from a cold no not too playful but was happy to wear these glasses!DSC_0002

I love her hair in these finger coils!!

At noon the balloons dropped and there was lots of popping!

Fun way to bring in the new year!

The other night we decided to roast s’moes! Tim built a little fire and we got all ready for the cold.  Cassidy enjoyed sitting in this little chair and watching the fire!  The big girls LOVED the marshmallows!

My sweet sweet 1 year old girl!  Her personality is showing more and more.  She is a very laid back baby.  She prefers to crawl around and explore instead of sitting in one spot.  She loves to be held and snuggle.  She rarely cries- only when fighting sleep!  Her belly laugh is deep and so so adorable!  She is talking more and more….. all done, good girl, up and uh (hasn’t gotten the –oh yet!).  She loves her sisters and is more than willing to go to most people.  She doesn’t stop when she’s awake… always exploring! 

We are so thankful for Cassidy!  We waited and prayed for her for a long while.  She is right at home in our family.  Can’t imagine life without her!  We are so grateful to her birth mom who made the selfless decision to do what she thought was best for Cassidy.  We love her and Cassidy is one LOVED girl!!
