February 2013 Recap

Obviously,  I will have a seperate 4 year birthday post for Kaden!  Geez, can’t believe I got this far behind on blogging!

Miss Kallie at 7 months old looking adorable as always!  Kara Clanton got you this bow before you were born, Kallie, and I LOVE it!

The kids and I took a road trip down to Angleton, Texas to one of my very best friends baby shower.  Kallie was working on her first tooth on this trip! 

Leah opening presents at the shower!

My beautiful friend Leah.

While we were in Angleton, Daddy got to deliver at the Walmart there, so we got to eat breakfast with him.  It was a fun surprise!

Kaden LOVED this swing made out of an old tugboat rope.  I took some maternity pictures for Leah and Kacey while we were there.

 

Such a BEAUTIFUL place to take pictures!

I am so excited for Leah and Kacey and their first baby girl who was born in April.

Bad Bloggy Mom!

Wow!  It’s been four months since I blogged anything!  I couldn’t ever remember my password!  CRAZY!  I tell you, I have really fallen off the wagon with posting since baby #2 arrived last July!  I’m going to ***TRY*** to start getting caught up and post more regularly.  Just because I don’t post it, doesn’t mean it isn’t happening or I’m not taking pictures, because I am taking LOTS of pictures of this little sweetie!

This picture is at Grand Daddy and JJ’s house back in early Spring and the grass was so beautiful and green. 

Oh the miles he has put on this green machine!  (No we don’t make him wear the helmet, he wanted too!)

Meet Patrick, Kaden’s little horse.  He LOVES Patrick and he LOVES to ride!  And, Grand Daddy loves that Kaden loves horses.

I swear this baby Kallie should be making commercials or something!  She is such a beautiful girl! 

Ok, here I go, my first attempt at getting “Caught Up!” 

Love my kids

What do I love about a three, almost four year old?  That dress up never gets old and has no limits.  And I love this little boy and his imagination.

This little girl is mighty sweet as well.  She is getting so busy all the time.

Montana’s Toy Drive

The Toy drive in memory of Montana was such a beautiful experience.  We collected toys from friends and family for a couple months leading up to the Anniversary date of Montana’s death.  Each donation meant the world to us.  Thank you so much for your farm toy donations.

The week of our scheduled toy delivery, was the week Kaden got sick and had to spend so much time at the doctor/hospital.  Which made this experience even more near and dear to my heart.  Kaden wanted to go with us to deliver the toys to the sick kids at the hospital. 

Kim, Mom, Kaden, Chloe, and Granny.

The hospital gave Chloe a special book and spoke to her, it was very sweet.  Chloe was so excited about the day and to give all those toys in memory of her baby brother.  Kim did well.  I was hard for her, but good for her at the same time.

Thanks to our wonderful friends and families, we donated almost 200 new farm themed toys, books, and games.

What a great way to celebrate Montana’s sweet little life.

Team MOO COW! 

We took Chloe and Kaden ice skating after we delivered the toys.  Fun to watch Kaden learn how to ice skate.

We love you and miss you every single day Montana Lane Fisher!

A Big Scare!

The last week of January Kaden had huge lymph nodes in his neck and other parts of the body.  We took a trip over to Children’s Medical City, and it ended up his cause for the lymph nodes were unknown.  He started a strong course of antibiotics, and the hospital recommended he see a hematologist/oncologist because his blood levels.  It was scary seeing the referral written out for our child to go to an oncology/hematology doctor.  The follow up was a few days later in Dallas at Texas Oncology.  The doctors were amazing.  The facility amazing.  And, we ended up with all good news.  Nothing bad like lymphoma or lukemia, praise the Lord!  But, the cause for the swelling in his lymph nodes is unknown.  We are to go back and have blood drawn again to ensure his levels are back to normal.

This all happened just a few days before his 4th birthday.  Lance and I were so scared. 

After this little boy having to have blood taken three days in one week, we had to have some fun to make up for all the scary/painful stuff.  Kaden was so brave and good.

We were so relieved and thankful for good news for our little man. 

Kallie at Six and Seven Months

Lots of things happened during your seventh month, Kallie.

You got your first bottom tooth in, then a couple days later your second tooth in.  You rocked and scooted the beginning of the month, then by the third week of the month you were crawling all over the place as well as pulling up and standing.  You are so interested in walking and would rather stand than crawl.  Your hair is growing so fast.

This is a 9 month dress the last day you wore this size.  You quickly went into 12 month clothes in the beginning of your 7th month. 

 

You were actually still 6 months old in these pictures.

We started sitting up in the bathtub.

Teething, Teething, Teething… Seven months was all about teething!  Such a NOT fun experience.

Visit from Sister

My sweet sister and her two beautiful boys visited us in January.  These sweet little ones where 6 months and 7 months old.  I think Kallie outweighed Austin by a pound at this visit and both were wearing about 9 month clothes.  Austin had his two bottom teeth at this visit, Kallie still with none.

Kallie and Austin got a lot of baby play time in!
