12 Weeks

This week Marcus turned 12 weeks old!! The time is flying by and he is growing and changing so much every day. My awesome friend Raegan came to visit us this week and we had so much fun catching up and just hanging out!








The weather was amazing this week-(getting into the 80's!)- so we decided to take Marcus to the zoo!

This is his reaction to the lions.



Raegan took lots of sweet pictures of him while they were hanging out when I went to work.







Raegan brought her matching P.J.'s!




Raegan flew into the airport in Charlleston which gave us the perfect opportunity to take Marcus to the beach for the first time! Unfortunately for us it was super windy and we lasted about 5 minutes...but that was just enough time to get some pictures!




We were so sad that we had to switch from the cute little bottles to the big bottles. Our growing boy has a growing appetite!




He is so strong and lifts his head so high when he is on his stomach!

Our Little Weed

Marcus has been growing so so fast! Tomorrow he turns 11 weeks old. These last 8 weeks with him have been amazing. He brings both of us so much joy and it is so fun to watch him grow and change every day! Here are some pictures from the past couple of weeks!

Abundant Smiles

We have been blessed with such a happy baby! He has been smiling, laughing, and talking so much lately. He has the cutest little dimple on his left cheek and it is impossible not to smile when he is!

Snow Days


Last week we had a little snow storm (2 inches of snow & 2 inches of ice) that shut things down for several days. I figured it would all be gone by lunch time so I made Cory get up early and we brought Marcus out to take some pictures of his first snow! Here are a few:

Marcus' First Christmas

For Christmas this year we travelled to Omaha to visit my family. We had such an amazing time and everyone got to meet Marcus! He was of course extremely spoiled this first Christmas. Here are some pictures from Christmas day!






His Aunt Dawn got him the cutest little moose booties that he wears all the time.


His Aunt Colleen knew that he would be cold in Omaha so she got him a hat and mittens.








His Grandparents got him a wonderful Christmas book- Marcus loves to read.






And of course his Nanna & Pop (Cory's parents) got him everything he could ever need Kansas.














Marcus did a great job opening all of his presents... really he just slept the whole time, but we are very thankful to everyone who sent him gifts this year!















Marcus and his excited Grandma and Grandpa!








Marcus and his proud Uncles Cody & Christian.




Marcus and his doting Aunties JAB, Dawn, and Colleen.



Our family on Christmas morning.
