Kinsel Look-alike Meter

MyHeritage: Family trees - Genealogy - Celebrities - Collage - Morph

I found this fun website thanks to my good friend, Kathlyn. Josh and I are always talking about who Ty resembles more, and when I saw this "look-alike meter" I thought it would give us a good answer. As you can see, it says that Ty looks like the both of us equally! I disagree. I think Ty looks just like Josh, although lately more people have been saying he looks like me too. So, I put up a new poll for fun...Who do think Ty looks like?

Merry Christmas!

We just wanted to wish all our friends and family a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! We are praying that you all have safe travels, and a happy, healthy holiday season!

Festival of Lights

We went home this weekend to get our crib and changing table from our good friends, Greg and Kathy (see post below), and we also took Ty to his first "Festival of Lights" at the Cincinnati Zoo! Both of our families went, and we had fun spending time with them! Luckily it wasn't too cold, and we bundled up Ty pretty good so he stayed nice and warm! We had a good time!

Awesome friends!

So, now that Ty has his own room, we needed to get some furniture to fill it! Well, thanks to our awesome friends, Greg and Kathy, we are off to a great start without even spending a dime! They gave us (yes gave us) a crib and the matching changing table! Isn't that wonderful?! The Lord has blessed us by putting truly amazing people, like them, in our lives. We have been so overwhelmed by the generosity of all our friends and families. We don't know where we would be without them! Thanks, Greg and Kathy, you are amazing friends!!!

Finished product!

The mommy cut!

So, last Saturday, we got Ty's 3 month/Christmas pictures taken. While we were waiting, Josh found this adorable reindeer outfit and I made him buy it so we could put him in it for pictures! We also used his Santa outfit. He did so good, and smiled so big for the photographer!

Also, you may notice in our family picture that my hair looks different...yep, I did it...I got a mommy haircut! I always noticed that a lot of mommies get their hair chopped off after they have a baby, and I always told myself I would never do that, that I wanted to keep my long hair. But, I was ready for a change...my hair has been the same for such a long time! I have to admit, it is much easier having short hair! Now I understand why so many mommies get their hair cut short...there's just not enough time to blow dry and style long hair when you have a screaming baby in the background! :-)

So, here are the professional pics:

This is our Santa Baby! Aunt Kathy, Uncle Dennis, cousins Jared, and Parker sent Ty this adorable outfit (thanks, guys!)! He is going to wear it when we go get his professional pictures taken tomorrow. I am so excited for our first Christmas as parents!

Our Thanksgiving Holiday

We had a wonderful trip home for Thanksgiving! We ate lots of yummy food, and got to see our families and some friends who hadn't met Ty yet. We had so much fun visiting our good friends, the Sunderman's and the Hupp's. Both families have the most adorable kids, and we were thrilled to spend time with them. We hope everyone else had a lovely Thanksgiving too! Christmas is right around the corner and we haven't even started shopping...yikes!!!
