Brody Alan Bauer

Two weeks ago, Bo was introduced to his new BOY baby cousin! We were soooo excited to have a little boy join the family. Brody was born Oct. 7! Congrats to Uncle Brock, Aunt Linz and Reece! WE LOVE OUR LITTLE BRODY

Time to Update...

So much has been going on. Dave has been harvesting for a about a month and has been working long, long, long hours. We have been able to ride a few times with him, they are on the other side of town so we are waiting till this week when they move to our side, right by the house to ride more with him. Bo LOVES riding in the combine and tractors with Dave. He just sits on Dave's cooler and away we go. Here are a few pics from Fall 2008 Harvest!

I'm A Big Brother Now!!

Stutzman Baby 2 coming May 6, 2008!

A Day at the Rader Pumpkin Patch!

Friday, we had a play date with Kennedy and Aunt Jodi so we headed over to the Rader Pumpkin Patch and had a great time playing and running all around the yard! Bo was really into Tom the Turkey and Samson the dog! I think we may have a little bit of an animal lover on our hands? I don't know where he gets this because Dave nor I care for animals!

My Buddy and Me!

Since March I have been watching Kennedy 3 times a week while Jodi is off at work. The days are slowly coming to and end. Bo and Kennedy have grown so close in this time. Each day they play more and more together and are to a stage where they imitate everything the other does. It is so cute! Kennedy will soon be at home everyday with her Mommy, which I am so happy for Jodi to get to stay home. But we will miss our little Miss. KK. Here are a few picture of the two of them at play!

Labor Day Weekend

We had a very busy weekend. On Friday night we headed to the LHS football game vs my old school RHS. WOW, did this bring back some high school memories!! That is probably the biggest thing I miss about HS Friday night football games.

Then on Saturday we headed down to Palmyra, IL to spend some time with our friends the Landes's. Angie and I talked about the kids and the little ones played so well together. Bo and Baylee still has a nice ring!! Dave and Landon talked farm, what else?!?! We had a great time catching up!

On Sunday G&G Stutzman came up for lunch and spent the night here with us. We had a great time with them.

Finally, on Monday we cleaned the Baby Fold house for Uncle Matt to move into! We are excited for him to be so close and to be working with Dave. Here is just a few pics from the weekend.

They really did get along good!!!

We're Walking!!

Over the past 2 weeks Bo has been practicing hard on the walking skills. In the past few days he has almost forgot crawling. What a fun time this has been for us to see him develop this large milestone. It has also been a little nerve racking, the wobbling and bumps on the head. He is such a little toddler and the baby traits are almost gone:(

1 Year Update

I am a little behind, but here is Bo's 1 year update. Bo turned 1 on July 28th, wow can't believe he is 1!! He keeps amazing us! Tonight he really is starting to show a lot more interest in walking . He took about 2 steps by himself, just give him a couple weeks and he may be off on his own. He has such a fun loving personality ( we really hope he keeps it!!) He has changed our lives in so many ways and what a blessing that has been!

At his one year check up, Bo weighed in at 22 lbs 12oz (50%) and was 30 1/2 inches long (70%). I think the height is my side of the fam!!

Bo 1st Birthday!

I can't believe that Bo will turn 1 tomorrow!!! Where oh, where does time go! Yesturday we celebrated his birthday with family and a few friends. All seemed to have fun and we could not have asked for better weather and the end of July!! Bo has blessed our lives in so many ways and we feel God has been so good to us. Happy Birthday to our little tiger!! We love you so much!

Happy 4th of July

Lauren, Brooke and Bo

Bo had sprung a leak and wasn't happy to be sitting in it!!

We spent our 4th of July with the Bauer side of the family. We headed to the big town of Cissna Park for a Bauer Reunion. Then headed on home mid afternoon. We didn't make it to the fireworks this year every one was asleep by the time they started! Dave didn't have to work all day so we really enjoyed the day with Daddy!
