The verdict is in...

 Well, after a couple inconclusive tests, we have our answer.  Laney really is allergic to peanuts.  We saw an allergy specialist and she did a skin test (six "mosquito bites" on Laney's back).  She showed a significant reaction to the peanut poke.  She was such a good girl throughout the testing and exam.  Marcus and I are so proud of her.  We will continue to be very careful with peanuts and always carry an Epi-Pen.  So take note friends and family... the Hubers' are armed!
 On a happier note, more Reese's Peanut Butter cups for Marco and I after Trick-or-Treating!

School Daze

Well, time has gotten away from me....again.  Laney is adjusting to going to "school" two days a week and so am I.  I miss her, but I am usually working or I'm at home frantically cleaning.  She really likes all the crafts and playing at school.  We love seeing all of her projects on the refrigerator!
 I got a new iPhone and Laney is loving all of the kid "apps" we get.  She can operate the phone better that Marco! I have also busted her buying some games.  One of my favorite apps is a hipstamatic camera.  Check out the awesome photos.

 We are gearing up for a fun fall season! Laney has already picked out her Halloween costume and is really excited for pumpkins.

Cousin time

Laney got to hang with her younger cousins last night.  She had a blast running around with Julia (who will be 2 in November) and giving Baby Jonny (who will be 2 months at the beginning of September) kisses on his hands and feet.

She is very excited to celebrate Nick Nick's Happy Batham (Grandpa Nick's birthday) tomorrow, but we all know it's about the cake.  More photos to come.

Summertime

So some good stuff from summer;
 1. Clara's clear scans  2. Playdates  3. Golfing
4. Laney's first haircut

So this last year was busy....

 Well, what can I say? She is 2 years old...
 This last year has been so fun.  Laney has really come into her own.  She is talking non-stop, she makes funny jokes and is potty-training.  Our sweet girl is exactly 2 and a half this month.
 We have had lots of fun playing with friends and neighbors, cousins and lots of family.  Laney went to "school" last year at church.  It was every Thursday from 9:30-2.  What a great moms day out program! Laney made some great little girlfriends and I got some time to myself.  We are planning another year of school with 2 different programs ( Praise 'n' Rainbows and Kid's Peace Time) both are a great christian base and so much fun.
 We have spent some great times with our families- holidays, birthdays, graduations and a trip up to the lake.  Laney laughs so much playing with her cousins and aunts and uncles.  She will wake up in the middle of the night and ask for " Granny and Nick Nick" or " Nama Neets and Nampa Steve-o".  It just melts our hearts. Laney is really excited to have a new little cousin on the Hubers side.  Auntie Jamie and Uncle Ryan will welcome a baby boy on Christmas!
Enjoy some photos from this last year,
All our love,
The Hubers Family

Hello, Goodbye

We have had a really happy and sad couple months. On July 13th we said goodbye to Laney's beloved Great-Grandma Zoe (Lorraine Bunker). She was at the beautiful age of 91 and passed peacefully in her sleep. We have been celebrating her life and trying to look at her passing as a blessing. She left Laney one of her favorite angels,-I will tell Laney many stories about her Great grandma. We cherish every memory of Zoe and will miss her everyday. Laney was named after my grandma.

On the "hello" end... Laney is walking! She started shortly after Zoe passed (Laney has a special cheerleader in heaven). She has been pretty excited and almost laughs when she walks. She loves to push her "baby" in the stroller and walk up the stairs- with help! We have also discovered her first favorite character... Dora the Explorer. We have to watch everyday and Laney loves to play with her Dora toys. Maybe she'll start speaking Spanish soon!

We have also experienced a first ear infection. I noticed a low grade fever and we brought her into the pediatrician. Just one ear and it wasn't too bad. I guess we made it a while with out being really sick. Lucky! Laney is still a pretty good eater and her favorite is still macaroni and cheese. Who can blame her?

We are really looking forward to a week up at the lake. We're heading up north (Brainerd area) the first week of August and we can't wait! Laney loves the water and we get to spend some time with the Hubers side of the family. Summer is going fast- hope everyone is enjoying it!
