A Hunting We Will Go

Although this post is a few weeks overdue, I feel obliged to document our yearly homage to the "forest" to pick out the Weer Family tree. While Jeff and I much prefer tromping out in the woods for hours on end, we have both made our peace with a 10 acre U-cut farm until the girls are past the days of Baby Back Packs and Bottles.

Following in the footsteps of her mother, Camdyn wanted the biggest, fattest tree she could lay eyes on, immediately pointing out a Noble at least 15 feet in height and width. After much convincing we settled on a beautiful fur, just shy of our ten foot ceiling, and by far the heaviest one on the entire farm! Gorgeous when lit and decorated, Weer Tree 2010 definitely sets the bar high for all trees to come!

Winter Wonderland.....

The usual holiday chaos has been in full effect in the Weer House, from traveling and colds to snowfall and crazy schedules we seem to have been doing everything BUT blogging! As work slows down for a week or two, I promise to get some past photos uploaded, but for now I hope our snow bundled babes will give you something to smile about!

Up, Up and ......Not Quite Away

Although walking is hopefully still a month or two away, little Miss Lilly has been quietly mastering the art of pulling herself up and cruising around on her own. From toy boxes to toilets, anything that provides a handhold seems to be fair game, and standing like a "Big Girl" definitely has a way of bringing a smile to everyone's face!

The Short End of the Stick...........

When the idea of a boys weekend in Kansas City was presented, I originally told Jeff we would talk about it. When we found out it included tickets to a Kansas City Chief's game, I started thinking this could be a great birthday present. When we found out the accommodations would be at an NFL player's house and the tickets would be in the family section, I saw the opportunity to be the coolest wife in the world.....so naturally, we bid Dad ado on Thursday Night and headed into the Halloween weekend a house full of women!

We are happy to report that the weekend was a HUGE success for all. Dad had the time of his life rubbing elbows with a group of professional athletes and Mom couldn't have asked for a cuter, happier pair of Trick-or-Treating sisters! About half-way through our night I received the following text from Jeff:

"Eating Wings with a bunch of KC chiefs!"

My response?!?!?!

"Eating candy with a zebra and a cow!'

In my opinion, I definitely got the better end of the weekend deal!

.75

Just a few facts and figures for one of our favorite little ladies at 3/4 of a year!

Stats:

Weight: 15 lbs, 2 ounces (0-5th percentile)
Height: 27.5 inches (25th percentile)
Head: 17 inches (25th percentile)

Is currently: Waving, clapping, crawling, ridiculously hard to keep away from the dog food, starting to pull up to standing, eating everything in sight,loving each and every item that has passed her lips, "talking" up a storm, and getting more of a personality each day.

Lover of: strawberries, sneaking small bites of ice cream, balls, being tickled, jumping, peek-a-boo, chasing her big sister, splashing in the bathtub, putting things in her mouth and waking up with Daddy.

Not so fond of: falling asleep alone, being hungry, not being able to keep up with her sister, and being pulled out of Barley's water dish!

Thanks Gamma.........

Your jelly is the bestest!

I Scream, You Scream, We All Scream for Ice Cream
