Loving Life as a Family of Four

That's a wrap on 2012

It's December 31, 2012 and it is the last day of the year.

Wow! What a year it has been.

I would say that this year was the best year ever. The birth of our baby boy.

He brought us more joy and love then we could have ever imagined. He gave us more patience and understanding that I never knew I had inside of me and he taught us how to love unconditionally.

I can only hope that next year is filled with many more memories and excitement.

It's hard to imagine that next year I will no longer be able to count your age in months but rather years. I don't think I am ready for that.

You will no longer be considered a baby but a toddler. O my goodness. The joys of toddler hood... I can only imagine.

Bridger boy, you light up daddy and my eyes everyday and we are so blessed to call you our son. I hope that as you grow and learn you continue to smile everyday and laugh a little louder. You, my son, are the best.

We love you,
Mommy and Daddy and Gabby

Boy and his Toys

Bridger got his first 4-wheeler from Grandpa Gary for Christmas and so we took it out this morning for a little ride around the driveway.

Boy was he grinning from ear to ear. He knew exactly what button to push and climbed right up on it.

Off he went.

There was no stopping him.

Since it snowed over night we knew it would make for a little extra fun if Bridger rode it outside.

And it did.

Knock on wood, he hasn't fallen off of it yet.

All afternoon Bridge and daddy have been riding it around the house.

Pretty gosh darn cute if you ask me.
Happy Sunday! Here are few new ornaments this year to the tree.

The Grandparents Christmas

With my family back in Omaha we didn't get to spend Christmas with them so the next best thing was to Skype while we opened gifts.

Grammy Julie got to watch Bridger open up his gifts from her.

They had lots of chatting time, and they even mangaed to pound on the computers aka: the one that Grammy got him.

Bridger was a ball of energy and was more interested in how Grandma was on the screen but he still managed to get excited about all the wrapping, boxs and tissue paper.

Friday night we skyped with my dad and Athena.

Bridger was excited too about all the candy and even wanted to try and get into all the peanut packing that came in the boxs.

Even though we didn't get to be with everyone on Christmas it sure was fun to at least Skype and see everyone.

We did spend Christmas afternoon with Grandma and Grandpa Parsons where we enjoyed a few gifts from Santa, turkey, all the fixings, a little nap, and lots of play time.
