the leap. {year}

so we don't do anything. BFD. Actually I have been very busy. pinning away. I have a really long to do list now :)

My goal for March- make Remy go to bed earlier than 10 and wake up not so much.

The battle with food is marching on. he slurped some applesauce from my toast and sucked some sugar off a mini spooner. i'm a good mom. pure sugar.

I have some more pictures to upload. maybe today??? but for now:

Balancing act

We still have our chick

Fine dining: strawberry frosted mini wheat

Bucks Rule

We love long weekends. I'm so sad for Cade to get back to work. We had a nice time in BC. Remy is getting better. I got a little something but it's not too bad. I'm sure I didn't get it from Remy, that would be embarrassing to get a cold from a baby. We mostly just hung out and ate all weekend. Boo yeah

take 2

I solemnly swear I am up to no good:

i'm going to start {again} my frequent blogging. now I know everyone is wondering, what is up with the Bucks. That is a good question. I'm not sure. my days are a blur. Remy is 7 months old. I can't believe it. I will say that everytime he reaches a milestone in his life. I can't believe it. he grew 2 teeth and got his first cold. He does not crawl, but he does go from sitting to face plant pretty often. he gets up on his knees when he has something to grab onto. and recently he discovered the art of walking in his walker. super super cute. our computer is slowly slowly dying. one day it will be forever broken. so far we've been able to get it up and running everytime it turns off because of the "blue screen of death" but i think it is almost ready to leave us. Cade and I have been dreaming of living the lives of homeowners so we have looked at a few houses. even though I don't know when we'll actually buy, it is super fun looking and thinking about what we want. Remy has this sick cough. due to paranoia i took him to the doctor and got him something for his "bronchial infection". I think maybe the doctor just gave it to him to calm my nerves. it worked so I won't complain. We are planning on going camping for the long weekend. so we'll see how that goes i guess.

mischief managed.

1/2 a year

going on a walk

brushing gums

6 month brownies

Remy is 6 months old!! I can't believe I have a 6 month old baby. He's OLD! Time has seriously flown by. He is the cutest baby. seriously. We went to the doctor today and Here are the stats of the kid: height: 68% Weight: 13% head: 54% He eats all the time, I guess he is just a skinny minny.

He is a full time sitter (with a few fall overs)

he as tried rice cereal, doesn't love it or hate it. he seems indifferent

He still doesnt sleep much, but we're working on nap time.

i think he likes sporting events, or just likes something to watch. I took him to watch cade in church ball and he was interested the whole time

he has the most darling smile.

still no teeth :)

he loves his mama

likes to walk around in his little walker

we can not get enough of this little guy (except maybe at night. jk)

He is the BOMB.com

2012?

2011 was, in a word, weird. It was the weirdest year of my life so far. (i'm sure things will get weirder) The main things that happened are: Cade graduated Law school. Got a job. I got fatter than i ever wanted to be (but come next baby will accept the weight again). had a baby. that pretty much sums up my year. We are so thankful for 2011. We were blessed with more than we imagined possible.

as for 2012...

this is the year of KRISTI - as apposed to last year, the year of Remy- . I am going to improve myself. bigtime. but unlike years past, this year i'm going to succeed. :) I would like to exercise more often and possible lose some of the remaining evidence of the kid. I want to be able to run a 10K . also I have the goals of scripture study, and listening in church. and also I want to start cooking. boo yeah.

Remy's goals: grow a tooth, eat people food, crawl, walk, maybe say a few words.

MRY CHRSTMS

as suspected, Christmas was awesome. Remy was so cute and he LOVED all of his wrapping paper. It was weird that cade only had one day of Christmas break. I wish it could have been more of a Break for Cade, but Remy and I still partied hard while everyone else was out of school. We had a fun Christmas Eve celebration at the Warburtons and then had a fab christmas morning With Grandma Buck. :) Remy was so thoughtful and slept until5:30. (i made him wait and go back to bed before we went and saw what santa brought) We had a wonderful breakfast and then headed to church at 11. after church we headed to the Olsens for of course more presents and Christmas dinner. It was so fun hanging out with everyone for the past few weeks. I'm always sad for christmas to be over and I was really sad when school started so everyone had to leave. The good news is that time goes by so fast for me now I know it will be back in a flash.

i'm sure you'll see.....

more pics and a post about this coolio soon.
