How time flies....

The never-ending question in our household...why can't babies be babies for a little bit longer? It all goes by sooo fast! Spencer seems like he aged 6 months overnight. He just looks so darn big! Lately he is our little parrot...repeating everything (and I mean everything) he hears. He is still story telling and the stories become more and more interesting with each tell. And Mason...we can't believe he is almost 8 months old! How is that possible? His latest accomplishments include saying 'dada' in a really low voice...definitely the lowest baby voice we've ever heard (my mom said he sounds like a baritone baby). AND he is getting ready to crawl! He is pushing up and rocking back and forth - it will be anyday now. It is all super exciting but just going by so fast.

Can't we slow it down just a little bit???

A visitor and some photos....

Today we had a surprise visitor all the way from Texas...Uncle Jordan! Even though I knew it was him it took my brain a couple of minutes to catch up because I couldn't figure out why he would be in South Dakota (he is here for work). It was the first time the boys were able to meet him and they both took to him right away...Spence in fact was a little jealous of Uncle Jordan giving Mason any of his attention. We had a nice visit and we are really excited that another member of the Odahlen clan was able to meet Mason!

And of course I thought I better post some photos. Spence 'cooking' for the Superbowl game, the boys being bummed their team wasn't playing in the big game and thus opting for some additional entertainment, Mason showing off two of his four teeth (they're there....zoom in) and our pup Milo (I figured I better give him some blog fame).
