Family Photo Shoot

As a gift to Dan & Jackie, we hired a photographer to come out for some family photos. Despite cold temps, we still managed some good photos of everyone. Corabelle was tired by the end, hence the crying sister photos, ha!

Dan & Jackie's 40th

While we were back in Wisconsin, we had a belated 40th Anniversary celebration for Dan & Jackie. Nothing to big, but we did manage to surprise them when Charla/John and Mick/Jim showed up!

Christmas Lead-Up

The month of December is one of my favorites, and the tradition of our advent activity countdown becomes more and more fun every year as Emmeline understands more. She was very into the chain countdown this year, even helping to cut and put together the chain.

11 Months

11 months, I can hardly believe it! It means the next post will be 1 year! Where did the time go? This month was busy with a trip back to the US, which Corabelle handled pretty well, and although no crawling yet, she is moving around!

Corabelle’s 1st Christmas

1st Christmas was a fun one, and of course we couldn’t let it go by without some fun photos like we did with Emmeline as a baby!

10 Months

I can't believe we are only two months away from 1 year old! This month Corabelle's personality has really started to take shape, and although she's still not mobile, she did get her first teeth this month!

9 Months

It's been a busy month with a trip to Australia and Halloween! Corabelle has now officially been out as long as she was in. Her 9 month birthday fell on her 39 week birthday, and she was born at 39 weeks almost exactly! (Ok, 50 minutes into the next day.)
