April 2013

In February another cousin was born - Malachi Paul Gaumer - we finally got to Springfield to meet him and play with Ethan and Gabi.  While in Springfield we visited Great Grandma & Grandpa Bup (Smith)

Another big thing for our family this month happened...Daddy signed up for the GO St Louis Half Marathon, Mama and her friend Andrea started training for the 5K and Tori ran in her first race - although she wasn't feeling well and didn't know what to expect she did great - 50 yard dash and a medal to prove it ~ can't wait for next year!!

March 2013

Swimming lessons, first time at the Circus, Dancing with the Stars - Joplin edition (cousin Krystelle was one of the professional dancers), and Easter with Papa Joe and Nanny

February 2013

We had visitors from Kansas City, the Rebne family came over while Nic had meetings with Daddy and Kristen was on maternity leave.  Cade and Tori had a blast!! Mama didn't get any pictures of tiny baby Pierce, she will be sure to snap a couple next time!

Happy Valentine's Day Sweetheart ~ Mama and Daddy love you to the moon!

Mr Bear in the Chair

Wow, 3 years with this bear...he used to be bigger than her!! 

Birthday #3 for Tori!!

The Little Gym, Mickey & Minnie ears, friends and family galore - so much fun turning 3!!

January 2013

January started off with more Christmas with GiGi and Papa when they came to St Louis before the adults went on vacation to Punta Cana, Dominican Republic and Tori had a stay-cation with Papa Rod and Auntie Randi for a week!!  We also got a little snow in January, just enough to go outside and build a little snowman!

Go ahead call me out...I am a slacker!!

It's hard work being a Mama to a 3 year old, wife, employee full time, friend, and everything else I hold title to!  I know it has been a year since our last post and I feel bad.  I don't feel bad that our friends and family don't have anything to look at here (thanks to Facebook) but I really feel bad because I told myself this is going to be Tori's baby book and I haven't printed any of the almost 4 years into a book yet for her.
That is why this week I am catching up on the fun things Tori has done the past year and I am going to print them all!!

With out further ado I will start with December 2012...
