7 Weeks

So many sweet smiles, coos, and giggles - especially when he is on his change table. There is a mobile above it of farm animals that I made and he is fascinated with it.


LOVES bath time! If he is feeling a little out of sorts, a bath always cures his woes.



Family bath :-) while Mommy enjoys some Mommy-time in silence!

Our Family of Four

Friends over to play

June

Sophie thought Alex needed a toy or two...


sweet smiles & coos



this is what happens if Im taking too many pictures of Alex, a little face appears in the way...

thanks for the picture Dad - me and my little boy

starting to fill out with some sweet pudginess

always wanting to hold her brother

Since the pool needed cleaning anyhow, Chris put in a bunch of minnows and Sophie & Uncle Jim spent a bunch of time trying to catch them all

checking each other out

Some Artwork From the Last Month or So

the bottom of a birthday card she made (I did the head & ears but everything else was by Sophie)


had so much fun with the birthday card that she wanted to do another face but bigger. This time she also helped draw the head by tracing around a lid.



I don't think the picture can properly convey the many layers of glitter this Welcome sign has!

one of the many felt collages done with Aunt F complete with a song or poem

we go through a lot of glue in our house for the many collages and other masterpieces that are created :-)

this one done at Toy Library - Little Fishy Feet (Bubbles done by Mommy)

another one from Toy Library

The last couple of weeks...

Dryden AirShow with Papa & Grandma

heading to the airport on the School Bus shuttle - excited to ride the school bus but then pretty apprehensive and holding VERY tight to Papa

The Snowbirds:

a little loud for brief moments when the planes were overhead

goofing around

At the Beach

Sophie and her friend Heather at the beach this morning. Water was actually warm and the kids had a great time - amazing for being May 20th!

my cute little sweethearts

Sophie has a thing for small tubs... this one from the deck for storing toys

...and this one is Alex's bathtub

all clean from their separate bathtimes - Sophie is anxious to have Alex bathe with her but it won't be happening for quite a few months

His first bath
