Morning time outside as one can see is pretty priceless….
A year old. Oh my the changes. (last 3 months)..
WEll as the doc said, Ayla is now a toddler. i have no idea what that means and im okay with that. Jen is absolutely amazing at being a mom and everyday i learn of something new she has taught our daughter. Bean has blown my mind in so many ways. She can point to eyes, ears, nose, mouth, point out dogs, trees, elevators, and anything with a red button. She sings, she dances, she roars. Ayla Grove turned one.
9 months….just a hair late….
its hard to believe bean has been with us 9 whole months. I cant even explain what these 9 months have meant to me, have meant to Jen. THey have been so wonderful, sometimes challenging yet so so rewarding. My hardest challenge as a father is trying to balance how i can provide financially for my family, yet still being able to spend time with them. It has been a juggling act, with constant support from Jen and frequent visits to work with the lil Bean mean the world to me. I will always stay motivated for this lil one. SO much love Ayla, so much love.
8 months (a little late)
beach.fun.sun. and sorrow. Right after Ayla’s 8 month bday our other sweet baby London passed away. It has been especially hard on our beautiful Jen, but Ayla has been so good for making it im sure just that much of a percent easier. Opal i think has tried her best as well not to be naughty. Ayla is progressing so fast. She is an official crawler and has quite the appetite for fruits and veggies!. Again i cannot say how amazed and proud i am of Jen for her job with Ayla and how well she is managing her class work as well. Enjoy….

This month has been awesome. As Jen is going back to school and myself back to work full-time we juggle time with Ayla a good amount. This means on certain days Ayla gets to have lots of Daddy time. We have lots of fun, play time, bath, selfies, eating of hands. I really wish I could explain the time I spend with her better, but I really can’t. Hopefully a few pictures will do that some justice….
