More Photos I never uploaded

It has been an eventful few weeks since my last post, but all is well in the Cody house. I still have a bunch of photos I have not uploaded. Below are few photos from my dad’s birthday, my birthday, and Easter. At some point this weekend I will upload photos from Kyllan’s surprise birthday party.

Photo Backlog

Not only have Kyllan and I been sporadic with our posting, until this week, we had not posted photos to Flickr this entire year. Photos spanning New Year’s to my mother’s birthday at the end of February have been uploaded. A few of the shots, like New Year’s, are in the apartment we stayed in between houses. You can also catch glimpses of the new house in the later photos, which will post about soon. The photos can be seen here.

Christmas Photos

I know it is almost 3 months later, but here are the photos last Christmas that I never posted. Up until the 2nd week in December we thought that we would be moving into the new house just days after Christmas. We didn’t do a lot of decorating, but we had a tree and stockings. Laurel was very excited Christmas morning, but quickly ran out of energy. She decided to take a nap in the middle of opening gifts. By the time she woke, it was time to leave for Aunt Kim’s house for dinner. The next morning she was too busy playing with gifts she already opened, so there were a few things she did not open until 2 days later. My parents came down the week before Christmas to spend a few days with Laurel as well. All the photos from the week of Christmas can be found here.

Catching Up

It has been a while since I last made a post. Things have been great for the Codys in 2013, but they have also been extremely busy. What little free time we had was spent trying to get the new house in order. We have finally started to reestablish our daily routine, which includes making post on the blog. I am literally uploading our Christmas photos right this very minute and plan to upload others this week, including our trip to the Perot Museum of Nature and Science with Kyllan’s mom and Drew. Yes, I know. We are well into March and I am just now uploading Christmas photos. I will post a link on the blog tomorrow.  Needless to say, Laurel has grown like a weed since those photos. We have actually taken relatively few photos so far this year, but we do have some we would like to share. I have no idea when I will get to the Christmas video.

Singing with Elmo

Here is a video of Laurel playing with a Christmas present from her godparents. This has quickly become Laurel’s favorite toy. She play with it more than she ask to be read  Click, Clack, Moo.

I am still trying to get a good video of Laurel dancing. She typically stops what she is doing and tries to play with the camera any time we pull it out. This short clip is the best I have been able to do.

Dancing

Laurel has always loved music and moving along with the beat, but recently she has become more and more animated while dancing. It doesn’t matter if it is popular song, a commercial jingle, or music from a tv show. If it plays for more than a few seconds she jumps up a starts dancing. I didn’t catch her signature one legged dance move, but I’ll try again later. Maybe I can get Kyllan and her doing it at the same time…

Sorry about the video quality. I made a dash for the camera and started filming so fast I didn’t focus.
