Won't you be my valentine?

With this little love bug around there is plenty of love to share! We shared our gifts early in the evening before Jacob had to dash to his EMT class and Kjera enjoyed wine/chocolate/movie with a friend. Kjera got spoiled with a new iphone and Jacob got honey whiskey and a King Street Ramblers CD. Augie was feeling the love from his Grammy and Papa Strom with two perfect gifts!

Who is sweeter than you?

HAPPY Valentines Day!

Checking out the gifts from Grammy and Papa!

These baby books are SO funny!

Will you by my valentine?

Spooning!

We are bravely allowing Augustus to try out using a spoon, and he's doing pretty well! If he gets a little help loading it up, he does pretty well finding it a good home. Here he's enjoying some broccoli/califlower/carrot medley. Rio also enjoys helps with the clean-up process, which can be extensive.

Yum! Yum!

Actually, this is much easier!

Date Night

Ah, how times have changed! Now a romantic evening at the Strom-Henrie home consists of giving the crock pot a rest for the night (and giving Jacob lots of lunch leftovers), cuddling up on our new IKEA couch and staying up late enough to finish a whole movie. This gem was (finally!) Breaking Dawn, Part I. Thank you, Jacob!

Swing on by!

Yes, it is winter in Jackson Hole. That doesn't mean the little guys doesn't need some fresh air each day. Some days we take a walk down to the community garden, sometimes we stroll along the bike path, and sometimes we just play on the porch!

Keep pushing Daddy!

The smile that makes me want to quit my job.

(play the giggle track)

Stand Tall

Augustus is experimenting with balance and standing. Is this "step one" to walking? He is mastering the ability to use his booty and belly to balance along the couch. Here he's doing some dance moves and his "So big!" pose.

Ready or not!

"So big!"

Food Glorious Food!

We continue to enjoy our Bountiful Basket orders, but we may take this next week off to catch up on our stash! ASH got the book Eating the Rainbow from Grammy and Papa for his birthday, and I'd say he's doing a great job!

The fixings for the guacamole that finally pushed the baby's spice tolerance limit.
It went like this: bite, bite, whimper, bite, bite, whimper, suck down water, bite . . .

Snack time!

What's for dinner?

ONE Moment in Time

When we heard that our friend Erin was offering photo shoots as she begins her own photography business, we thought it would be a great opportunity to document our ONE year mark! Jacob and I were stumped by her question of "urban or nature locale?" We asked to go a little more urban considering that we'll have plently of natural photos in our quiver/Shutterfly. Yes, it was a chilly morning snooping around downtown Salt Lake, but these photos were well worth it! We had so much fun and are honored to be a part of her promising portfolio. Check it out!
