Go Tigers!

All set for the game in her Detroit gear from grandma.


Lets go Tigers!

A view of the field from our seats.

Marc and I weren't brave enough to sport our Tiger gear, so I put it on Kailer instead. Who is going to say anything to a baby, right? WRONG! Yankees fans will scream obscenities to a baby! Ha. Just one angry fan on our way out...most likely because the Tigers won:) We did however warm up and cheer our team on with the help of our fellow fans next to us.


We had such a good time watching the Tigers beat out the Yankees last night. It was nice to make it to Yankee stadium again, especially since it is the stadium's final season!

Spring Break



Kisses from daddy.


Happy 3rd birthday Joey!


Playing with Joey and Libby.

Emma and Kailer.

All of the Saxton cousins.


Kailer loves playing with anything that is not a toy.

Nonnie and papa have a wonderful park behind their house.

I am not sure who enjoyed the swing more...me or Kailer.

Kailer wearing Ben's camouflage hat. He was so good about sharing his toys! Thanks Ben!

Ben giving Kailer a kiss.


They played so well together. Kailer loves watching and playing with other little kids. We can't wait until we move home and they can play more often.



Kailer didn't like Grandma's tub, so we resorted to taking a bath in the sink.

Grandpa couldn't resist getting her picture on his John Deere.

This past week we made our last voyage to Michigan until we are home for good. We had such a great, relaxing time. I am so thankful that my job has so many built in vacations that allow us to come home so frequently. We enjoyed the beautiful weather and Kailer spent lots of time outside. She went to the park for the first time, went on several walks with grandma, played outside with Ben, and went to Kody's baseball game. We are in the final stretch until school is out and look forward to moving home. Kailer had so much fun being around family. We look forward to moving home so that she can spend time with her family more often...and mom and dad can catch a break every now and then:)

Kailer Attempts to Crawl

Kailer LOVES remotes, phones, and cameras. She isn't doing too bad sitting up, but really has no interest in it. When she is on the floor she always rolls towards anything that isn't one of her toys. This week she started scooting/crawling. She actually looks like she is swimming. We have been setting down remotes and encouraging her to come toward them. Here are a few short clips or her attempting to crawl. We had her doing it several times, which is probably why she gives a little cry of frustration!


Also, Kailer has sprouted her first tooth on the bottom. It must have broke skin this past week, which may explain why she has been sleeping so poorly. You can see that she has one coming in right next to it too! It is so weird to think that my baby is already getting teeth!

Let's Go Mets!









Last night we went to Shea Stadium to watch the New York Mets take on the Phillies. We ended up getting tickets for $4 on Stub Hub and decided to make a night of it! During the day it was sunny, 70 degrees, and beautiful here. At night it got a little chilly. I was glad that I packed "like I was going to Mexico for a week (as Marc had said)" because we needed all the extra warm clothing when the sun went down. Kailer was so good and didn't even make a peep. She just looked around and took it all in. She even managed to sneak in a nap. It was her first baseball game and we look forward to taking her to her second in a few weeks when we go watch our Tigers play at Yankee Stadium:)
