Kicking Off 2016

January 4, 2016

oh my goodness! So many days have gone by…. We had New Year’s celebrations and Dillards blowout sale and retirement parties and football galore.

Here is Little Miss Priss in her finest Boomer Sooner attire!

The baby is talking up a storm, but you can only make out about every fourth word and it usually is “puppy.”  Today she really started saying “bye” over and over again.  And the scary thing is it sounded exactly like me! I didn’t realize how many syllables i use in such a short word.  Further proof that I really am from the Deep South.  But I Am NOT a Bama fan.

She showing a lot of personality. Spending time with Jules made me realize how different the two of them really are.  Jules is this chill, apathetic, quiet third son.  SJ is this quirky, funny, boisterous mess of a baby.  She wants things her way. She’s a biter. She’s a fighter. And I don’t know how are going to survive the terrible twos.  I do know we are in trouble.  It’s her spirit that’s going to do us in…too cute combined with really stubborn.  Bad combo for Daddy.  😉

Here are some of my favorite pics from the last few days.

Playing the piano at Aunt Abigail’s house during Dad’s retirement party.

Getting really excited about her first tiny box of raisins.  (I know she was more excited about the box than the raisins, and that’s saying something because Selah June loves her some raisins!)
