Happy Kansas Day!

Today is Kansas' birthday. The 'ol beauty is turning 152 years old today. She wears that age well. What a better way to celebrate Kansas Day than a fireside hoe-down with friends? None really. Reesing and her classmates celebrated the day by eating hot dogs by the campfire while singing songs and dancing. A good time was had by all. Happy Birthday Kansas!

Happy Birthday in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1...

In a little over 2 hours the Urish household will have a 6 year old. Yes, a 6 year old! It's hard to believe. Happy happy birthday to me!!!

I can see clearly the rain is gone

There might not have been any rain, but it's safe to say that our baby Kawlins can see clearly now at nine weeks. On Sunday she was really restless and just seemed anxious. By Monday she was smiles all day long. She couldn't stop exploring everything with her eyes and smiling all the time. All it takes to get a smile out of her is to let her know she's got your attention and it's ear to ear grins. She's having a lot of fun checking everything out and it's fun to see her smile.

Ready to rock 2013

2012 was filled with many great things, and 2013 is off to a great start so we can't wait to see what wonderful things the rest of this year has in store for us. Wishing everyone a healthy and happy new year.

Kawlins turned 8 weeks yesterday. She's a good baby and likes to sleep a lot. Kawlins is somewhat of a chameleon, looking like a mini-me version of Reesing and then other days she looks like a girl version of myself when I was that age. She's a good combo of us both, I guess. Milk is her favorite, maybe that's because that's all she gets, but she devours every last drop every time she eats like it's the best meal ever and then usually falls into a deep food coma afterwards. Reesing and I both REALLY love her and she tolerates us in her face all of the time. Overall, she makes a wonderful addition to Team Manning. It's been a fun-filled 8 weeks so far!
