Life is Good: April 2011
http://newellslifeisgood.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 14, 2011. 8 months and more! Sorry for the long stretch since my last post. Time is short these days! Walker is doing so much now. I can't get over the fact that he's 8 months old! He started crawling around 7 months, mostly on his belly, but now is crawling on his knees as well. About 2 weeks ago he started pulling up to kneeling and today he pulled up to standing! Won't be long and he'll be cruising! I desperately need to do some more babyproofing! Emma Claire Mueller, the 18th grandchi...

Monday, April 19, 2010. A very beachy Easter. We had a wonderful visit to Amelia with Bill's parents for Easter and Spring Break week. The weather was absolutely gorgeous the whole week. Bill came just for the weekend and then he and Terry went down to Daytona for business. Ridley and I stayed back with Grandma Totsie for the whole week and had a blast! We had such a great time and can't wait to return soon! Thursday, April 1, 2010. This place is a little girl's dream! Her friends Grace and Lilly joined ...

Life is Good: August 2010
http://newellslifeisgood.blogspot.com/2010_08_01_archive.html
Saturday, August 21, 2010. Born 8/6/10 at 4:12 pm. 7 pounds, 5 oz, 19 inches long. I'm finally getting around to updating my blog with our big news although most or all of you already know about our new baby boy! It took us forever to name him, mainly b/c Bill couldn't make up his mind. I am calling him Walker, Bill has a slew of nicknames for him already including Will, Wilbur and Squawker, we'll see what sticks! Aunt Katie Katherine Foley. Big sister loves to hold me. Ride home from the hospital.

Life is Good: My baby's growing up

Wednesday, July 13, 2011. My baby's growing up. Sorry for the huge break in blogging, life is busy folks! So I'll try to catch you up on some developmental things both the kids are doing. They're both growing up so fast! Walker is 11 months now and we're gearing up for his 1st birthday. I can't believe it. I am so sad. I know I shouldn't be b/c with this milestone comes lots of great things but my baby isn't going to be a baby much longer! Yesterday (7/12/11) he said "Mama! Such is a mother's life, and I...

Monday, December 13, 2010. A weekend of firsts. This weekend was busy! We had a weekend of firsts here in the Newell household. It snowed on Saturday night making it our first official snow (that stuck) in Kansas City. Let me tell you folks, it is sticking! It is now Monday night and the snow has not melted at all! It is freezing cold here.welcome to Kansas! Lastly, William Walker started rice cereal on Sunday! So I'm hoping adding cereal into his regimen may help him sleep a little longer at night!

Life is Good: March 2011

Monday, March 7, 2011. Outta the Mouths of Babes. This afternoon when I was putting Ridley down for her nap she said she wanted to say her prayers. We usually do this at bedtime, not nap time, but what the hey, right? Our conversation went something like this:. Mom let's say our prayers, prayer hands! She claps her hands together). I clap my hands together too). Then we recite "Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep". Mom, who should we pray for? Well, these are your prayers, you tell me who you want to pray for.

Wednesday, May 12, 2010. The best mommy ever". I'm not sure where she got this, I swear I didn't coach her, but last week out of the blue she started telling me "You're the best mommy ever! I thought I was going to cry right there! What a little sweetie! Maybe they coached her at preschool or she saw something on TV, I don't care, it is the most precious thing and definitely my favorite Mother's Day gift. Here are some other things she made me at school. Friday, May 7, 2010. Here are some pics:. Russ and...

Life is Good: Celebrate Good Times!
http://newellslifeisgood.blogspot.com/2011/08/celebrate-good-times.html
Tuesday, August 9, 2011. Boy did we ever! Walker was not really into eating his cake, he liked sticking his hands in it and the sticky feeling of the icing but he did not really want to eat it. Sunday we had him baptized at the church we've been attending here, United Methodist Church of the Resurrection. Afterward we had brunch at our house for our family. Here are some pictures of all the fun we had! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Wrapping up summer, back to Alabama and more DFW fun.

Life is Good: November 2010
http://newellslifeisgood.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Tuesday, November 16, 2010. OK, I really don't like to air personal gross stories about potty training but this I just have to share. So potty training has been just about as horrible as I imagined it would be. We started training Ridley in June and we are still not 100% there. Seriously? I know this child is so bright, why in the world can she not figure out how to use the potty? I know it's not an intelligence thing, it's more of a control issue but it is SO FRUSTRATING! Bill has promised Ridley we can...
