It has been cold and snowy, but we try and get outside as much as possible for the sanity of an energetic boy, an energetic boy-man, and a nature loving mom. Here are a few pics of some recent expeditions. It is a lot different having a baby in northern Oklahoma than Houston.









Yes, Sawyer was hooked up in his sled behind a world famous Alaskan Iditarod Dog. Grandpa adopted Gumbie last year when Gumbie retired and you can read about him here. I pretended I didn’t see the sled ride. Gumbie is even the poster child Grandpa never had (sorry Clint and Adam). His picture was chosen for the Yukon Quest patch and pin!

So what is going on in the world of Sawyer? He still isn’t talking much (besides jibber jabber), but is really good at using baby sign language. He is starting to experience the extremes of the toddler years. He gets super giggly, super excited, super silly, super cuddly and super tantrums. Ok, they aren’t super tantrums, but for a baby that has been so easy, Clint and I have been scratching our heads. At least he is developmentally on schedule right? He is sooo curious, and can open anything even if it is baby proof. He gives us this super cheesy smile when we ask to see his smile – see picture below. He knows all his body parts, and I mean all. He is getting better at his animal noises. For a while they all made a barking/growling noise. He is good at communicating with pointing. It really is amazing to watch him change.
