My Blog

Thanks for stopping by! I use to blog to "keep in touch," I use to blog to brag, I use to blog for an outlet. I have now realized I blog because these are the things I want my children to know/remember about our life together as a family. These days won't stop passing, but having a record of it when it is all a memory will be priceless to me.
I read your blog because I love you!

Happy Birthday Turner!!!


There are a million and one pictures so don't feel obligated to watch them all- this is just a sampling of the Love and Laughter Turner has brought into our lives the past two years!


Turner I love you in so many ways! Here are 24 reasons why- One for each month you have been in our lives:
1. You love to be wherever I am.
2. You love your daddy.
3. You get so excited whenever you see a "big big truck"
4. You made me a mommy and it is my favorite thing in the whole world.
5. You love people young, old, big, little it doesn't matter- they love you too.
6. You always want to hold your little brother.
7. Even though I have to change your diaper and your brother's diaper, you can still convince me that I should also change Elmo's diaper.
8. You have always been pretty content to go with the flow. You are getting more opionated as you get older but as long as we are busy you are usually happy to be doing whatever.
9. You love to be outside.
10. When you are playing you are so busy and seem to almost have an agenda.
11. You smile and say hello to everyone you see.
12. You love trains, cars, boat, big trucks, anything with a motor.
13. You attack your food with tenacity. You might not get it all in your mouth but it isn't from a lack of trying.
14. You love Jesus and get so excited when you see his picture.
15. You LOVE books and would be happy if I would sit there and read to you all day long.
16. You love your baby brother and can always make him smile.
17. Your cousins are your favorite people and you can name everyone in our family pictures without a whole lot of help.
18. Nursury is the highlight of your week.
19. Walks always make you happy.
20. You can pull your brother in the wagon all the way around our hilly block.
21. You are a snuggle bug.
22. You are the BEST sleeper and have slept through the night since you were really little.
23. You never complain about taking a bath- anything to do with water you are game for (even the Ottesons freezing cold swimming pool.)
24. You have the best sense of humor and make me laugh everyday!

Wow. Tiff, your happy thoughts are truly inspiring! And I love all the pictures of your cute little family! What a great blog. I'm so glad that Turner likes Nursery...Clark's nursery leaders had to "talk" to me about what to "do" with him. It made me a little sad, but I just hope he'll keep doing better.
