Flying Kites and Having Fun

Far bought a kite for Colee and she has had SO much fun flying it! Best $1.29 ever spent :)

Cal has the biggest eyes! Love him so much.

Cal is 3 weeks today! Before we know it, he will be crawling. So sad how fast time flies.

Seriously Read!

Okay, so a few teachers and librarians here in our district have created a book review blog. It is AWESOME!!! Reviews are written about new/popular releases and are given ratings depending on what is in the book. Go check it out and let me know what you think!

Loving Life

Finally Here!

Cal John Crofts is here! 

He was born Tuesday, February 28, 2012 at 8:20 pm, weighed 8 lbs. 5 oz., and was 22 inches long. Cal is a great baby so far and big sister Colee is in love with him. We are probably close to being the happiest people on earth right now.

Meeting Grandpa Forrest 

Colee was so excited to come meet her baby brother that she wore herself out and fell asleep on the way over. She didn't wake up until the next morning. 

Farley is the BEST husband ever. I'm so glad he was there to hold my hand through the entire thing. 

Cal and my mom. He loves sucking on his hands.

40 Bags in 40 Days Challenge

I am in a serious "get the house clean because this pregnancy is about to end" mood. I don't like calling it nesting because when I think of nesting, I picture a bird sitting on her butt waiting for her chicks to hatch. Call it what you may, but the cleaning mood is here.

On pinterest.com I found the greatest ideas ever!!! It is called the 40 bags in 40 days Challenge and the person who thought of this is obviously brilliant. Check out the amazing person I stole the idea from here.

The idea is to get rid of all the "stuff" in your house over a 40 day period by cleaning one area a day. The best part...it will only take 10-15 minutes per area (unless you're like me and some areas are a little deeper than others)! I made a list by starting at one end of my house and writing down EVERY area until I reached the other end of the house.

I am starting tomorrow, anyone want to join me? 

36 Weeks!

Can you believe it?! We are going to meet this baby boy pretty dang soon. I'm doing great and just biding my time until he arrives. I will admit that I have been teaching from my chair more lately and I am SO thankful I have a stool in the front of my classroom because I park myself there quite regulary! I've been a slacker taking belly pics, but here is one for you. We had just been snow mobiling (a post for another day) and it was a blast! So please excuse the sweats and hair :)

Christmas Picture Overload!

We had a fabulous Christmas and I've decided that having kids makes Christmas so much more fun. Colee was in heaven all day! I have more to post later, but here is a start...

Opening her Christmas pj's on Christmas Eve.

 Christmas Morning!!

 She got a little tired :)

 Half way through opening presents, Colee just wanted to play with her new gifts. So we left some under the tree for her to open later. These pictures are of Colee opening more presents the next day.
