Cameryn's wedding

So this past weekend I was the Matron of Honor in Cameryn's wedding. It was such a wonderful and amazing time! I really missed Kaliber and Remington but at the same time, I was really enjoying myself just hanging with friends and not worrying about anything. Friday we went to the Riverwalk and ate and walked around. I gotta tell ya, I was pretty impressed with the whole Riverwalk scene! At times, I felt like I was walking around in Vegas. Saturday was all the pre-wedding hub bub and Sunday was the big day. The wedding was absolutely gorgeous and elogant! I found myself wishing I could go back in time and redo our wedding. LOL
I came back to my little town of 3,500 happy that there wasn't any traffic and I knew people I saw on the street. San Antonio was a blast but alittle too much for me to handle. Here are just a few random pictures. Nothing fancy or special, just sorta fun.

Father's Day Outting

Remington was very "bent" on going to the lake for Father's Day. We had everything in place, smore's, hotdogs, drinks etc. Then...tornado weather approached and cut our plans short. So, we settled for going to the lake for one day. Kaliber wasn't too sure about the lake experience at first. It took him about an hour to warm up to the water and the people in the water. His favorite part was probably throwing sand and yelling at everyone that went by. Kale eventually did go in the water and loved it. Overall, it was a very good day and I think Rem really did have a great Father's Day!

Our 9 day adventure!

My mom turned 60 this month. The occassion inspired me to drive down to Albuquerque with Kaliber and visit for 9 days! Poor Remington stayed home and was near insanity by the time we came back home. Since we were in "the big city," we did many things that are very uncommon in our small town of 3,500. Kale got to go to an amusement park where he was thrilled to ride the doggies and go up and down. We also went to the aquarium and botanical gardens. He was in awe of the large stingrays and sharks that swam about him. We ate out more than I would like to admit and I truely believe he gained 5 lbs while we were gone! Overall, it was a great way to kick off the summer. Now it's time to tackle painting my kitchen, swimming at grandma's pool, camping, fishing, and many other summer adventures. Going up and down on the doggies.

I asked him to say cheese and he did!! This is his first "cheesy" picture.

Who is this imposter next to me?!

Mainly pictures

It's been a very long time since I've done an update. Kaliber is doing very well and amazes us everyday! He is quite the ham and loves to entertain anyone that will give him 2 seconds. He still isn't walking but has taken many steps between things. I think he just realizes it's easier to crawl and get somewhere quicker than it is to try this walking thing. I'm hoping he is walking by the time we go to NM at the end of the month. Cross your fingers for us please! He has become pretty curious about how things work and loves to take things apart and then try to put them together again. I suppose that's a boy for ya!

Rem is doing very well at the firm and has become very comfortable in the court room. Poor guy just can't seem to get away from hearings etc.

I am still working at the gym although that will come to an end this month (for the most part). I am hopefully going to start up a weight loss and nutrition program sometime this summer or early fall. In the mean time I'm planning on doing lost of gardening this summer! I've planted many many different types of veggies including 15 tomato plants! I may have gotten in over my head on this one! LOL

I'm sorry about not updating sooner. This update isn't much of a great one either but I'll try to be more detailed next time.

Until then friends!

First Haircut!

Today marks the day that Kaliber got his first haircut! He wasn't too thrilled about the idea at first. Actually, he wasn't thrilled about the idea through the whole thing! We decided to cut his hair before his actual birthday because who knows exactly how much time we would have with family and friends in town. Rem wanted to be there as well and so it just worked out better to do it early. He wiggled and squirmed the whole time and I had to do the mommy dance too many times! Overall, Aunt Meghann did a wonderful job and he looks like a little man!! Stay tuned for his first birthday party pictures. It should be interesting...

What are you doing to me?!

If looks could kill!

The shock and awe factor!

The Dalke's a trimmed up.

May I first say, I have no idea to get the pictures alligned! If you know how, please inform me!

I know I say this all the time but I can't believe he is almost 11 months old! It just goes so stinking fast! Kaliber has a lot of milestones this week. He now uses his walker to go everywhere. If we're in the kitchen and ask him to come in there, sure enough here he comes with his walker. So, I don't think it'll be too long before he is walking on his own. We've also been working with him on together and apart. Rem likes to give him legos and stick them together and give them to Kale. When Kale gets the legos we say "together" and then he figures out how to pull them apart and we say "apart." Big deal right? Well, the thing that makes it so cute is Kaliber gets so excited when he pulls them apart. He throws his hands as wide as he can and screams, smiles, or laughs. It's pretty entertaining. I have it on video but seeing as I can't even alligned pictures up, I don't know how successful I would be with a video. He is also very good at waving hello and goodbye to people. If he recognizes someone he will wave hello. Then when they leave, he waves bye. It's just amazing to watch our little man become aware of everything around him.

Well, I really just wanted to put some more pictures up of him so I'll keep this short.

Love you all and miss you

A teenie tiny update

Well here we are 10 months into Kaliber's life. It goes so quickly. Just the other day Rem and I were trying to remember what it was like to have a newborn...we hardly could do it. Kale's doing a wonderful job of trying to walk. He uses this little walker and goes all over the place. He's FINALLY sleeping through the night. Although, that means he wakes up earlier which can be rough on ol' Momma. Ha!

I'm busy trying to plan for his first birthday party. I think it's probably going to be a fairly large party since we have so many family members and friends with kids. I've decided on the circus theme and are going to have little booths set up with activities etc. Yah, I am crazy. But, I figure it's for my baby and it's only a few hours out of one day. So, I'll have to let you know if I make it alive and just how crazy I'm getting with the shin dig. If anyone has any fun ideas throw them my way! Other than that, life is pretty hectic with the daily up keep of having a family and working. Props to all those Mom's that work full time and take care of a house! It's freaking hard!!!
