Conversations and Crawling

Jonah is now holding conversations with us! Where did my little baby boy go? Almost 2 weeks ago now, this was the 1st conversation of any real length that he had. I was sleeping in with Carly a little bit, and he and Jason were up getting breakfast in the kitchen before church.
Daddy: Hey Jonah, [...]

Jonah’s Recent Art

We’ve been doing at least one “ar projek” a week, and sometimes, they’re not making they’re way onto the 365 blog. So here are a few of the projects we’ve done for our letter of the week. Once we’ve already done the letter, if he asks to do another project later on in the week, [...]

Scrapping Anyway

Despite the busy weekend with potty training, I still found some tim (usually w/ Carly in my arms) to work on my 2008 family scrapbook. I skipped over 2007 for now so that I could get caught up on the current stuff while it’s fresh on my mind. I actually got halfway through with the [...]

Party Crashers

So I somehow managed to not only crash/get myself invited to a party that wasn’t intended for us, but I also somehow got the whole thing turned into a party for a whole lot more people. I had called Sarahjenne to see if they were doing anything on Friday as Jason had the afternoon off [...]

McCarty Family Reunion 2009

A few of my favorite pics of us and the kiddos at our family reunion this past weekend. To see the rest of the pictures, visit my facebook album!

Happy 1 Month Carly

I am totally hijacking this idea, of the monthly picture wearing the 1st birthday hat, from Kelly, who got it from Michelle, who ultimately got it from Girl (all of these lovely ladies are Pea Friends of mine, so I’m sure they won’t mind! ). I always loved seeing the pics of their [...]

A Trip to the Park

I took both kiddos out in the double stroller today, just down the street a few blocks, to the little swing playground.That’s literally all there is there… some swings. Jonah doesn’t care though. He likes it just the same, and it’s only about a 3 minute walk from our house.

When we got there [...]

Got Alot Done

With my mom hanging around and helping out last week, we got WAY more done than any couple with a nearly 2 year old and a 1 week old should! My mom is a major DIY handy-woman, and just couldn’t contain herself when she came to stay. By the end of the 1st day she [...]

New Baby – New Project

With the addition of our little girl, Carly Michelle, to our family I have added a new blogging outlet for myself! I attempted to start this photography project, called the 365 Challenge, with Jonah at one point, but always wished I had started at his birth and used it to document his 1st year in [...]

Blue Bonnets 2009

I had intended to take pictures of Jonah in the blue bonnets last year, and make it a yearly tradition, but I never could find a good place that was safe to pull over and put him in them. Since we moved here though, I have been passing a local biking trail, all the time, [...]
