Here is a posed pic of Daniel in the beautiful handmade wood crib that my Grandpa made. He wasn't very happy here, but he loved his crib. Thank you Great-Grandpa.
Here is a newer picture of Daniel. You can see his bottom teeth. He is a very happy boy!
THis is one of my favorite pics. Behind my sleeping baby is a quilt that one of the sweet ladies at church made for Daniel. We have so many beautiful quilts.
Here is Daddy and Daniel reading before bed. They are reading Daddy's favorite book.
Daniel's Great-Aunt Linda got him these great froggie slippers. Aren't they cute!!!

This is Daniel in the nursery. He had fluid on his lungs so he had to stay hooked up to the O2 sensor for quite a while.
This is our first family pick on Christmas Eve. Daniel is wearing his First Christmas sleep sack. Thanks Auntie Brie.

Well let's see.... we are in the trailer, we have internet, it's summer, and things are going great. Daniel has decided that he needs to eat steak... well not really. He started teething at 4 1/2 months and hasn't stopped. He has both bottom teeth. One top middle tooth all the way through, the other top middle tooth on it's way, and both eye teeth just about to bust through. He thinks he's a big boy! He has discovered food. He watches Scott and I eat and drink.

We've started baby food. He likes his cereal. Applesauce is okay. Bananas are not great. Green beans are okay. I'm going to try to post a pic or two.

Long time no posting

Well, we moved and then have been without internet!!!!!!!!!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHH!!! I have survived a long time without internet. Now we have really fast wireless! :) I will be able to post pics now. During Daniel's next nap I'll write some more.

We have a new home!!!! Yeah! We bought a trailer, yes a single wide mobile home to put on our land. We are so excited. Our home on our land. Scott is working like a mad man to get us in. We are still building our house, but it's a bit slower now. Well Mr. Daniel decided to wake up. Gotta go

Well it's been awhile since I've written. Lots has happened. Daniel has gotten big! He was 15 1/2 pounds at 3 months! I'm back at work and doing well. I wanted to let you know that I have lots of pics posted on walmart's website here's the link. http://photos.walmart.com/groups/mulebarn if you would like to look at the pics email me and I'll send you the password. I can't post directly to the blog yet. I'll have to work on my connection.

Back to work!
I am currently spending my last few moments as a stay at home mom. Tomorrow I go back to teaching. My other team members tell me my kids are ready for me to come back. I'm not really ready to go. Yes I miss my kids, yes I feel a responsibility towards them, but I don't want to leave my baby! I hate the thought that someone else will see his firsts. It stinks!! I think I'm going to pretend that the first time I see anything will be the first time it happens. It does help that the person taking care of him has 3 kids of her own and is a member of the church. I don't want to pack my stuff, I don't want to make sure I have clean clothes, thinking that if these things don't happen I won't have to go. I know I should be happy that we only have 9 full weeks of school left. I should be happy that I don't have to work 12 hours a day. But none of that makes it any better. Any way, this is what is happening. I know many moms that work and their kids turn out okay. I'm just glad to have working mom buddies.
Tomorrow will stink for me, I think I'll make it through, but I know Daniel will be okay.
