Catching Personalities

I love catching my children doing something they love–catching their personalities.

For Kenley, lately it has been sitting in her new chair reading books. It is seriously so cute! She is not so much a baby anymore, but a tiny little person. It blows my mind.

Her little feet, the way she crosses them, the way she points at objects in the book– all things I never want to forget.

For my son, it is riding his tractor. This boy could spend hours doing it, and it is so fun to watch him learn about how to drive it, how to turn, park, and even take his sister for a ride in the back. When he isn’t riding his tractor, he is talking about tractors, playing with tractors, and even going with my husband in the BIG tractors. It’s such a fun time for him, and I hope he never loses that zest for farming. He is so much like his daddy.

Watching their personalities develop is so fun– both behind and in front of the lens. And I am so glad I have these little snippets of them growing up, because it goes far too fast!

This is the lowest weight I have been since I got pregnant with Dustyn and he will be 18 in February. 😳Feeling amazing, so thankful for how far I have come, but would like to lose about 20 more and tone up.

Plus, he researched for hours how to do ceramic coating so now the paint is protected and it should be easier to keep clean. The photo does not do it justice. It’s super slick and shiny.
