Wye Mountain

We headed up to Wye Mountain this morning in hopes of capturing some family pictures. This is what we got. It was beautiful and sunny and windy, o so windy! We had fun over all. There was a girl there taking pictures for our Mom's club. Hopefully she was able to capture some better ones. This is the best of the best out of my shots.

In the car, he decided to smile real big once strapped in and headed home. what a stinker!




This picture really shows how the wind was blowing. Needless to say, our attempts at any with me and the kids was unsucessful mainly due to wind.

I thought this last one was sweet.
I was very pleased with the way the orange looked w/the yellow and green background. I'll have to keep that in mind for next year..........there's always next year............

The teeth

I mentioned in a previous post that Lucy has 2 teeth now, but we couldn't ever get a picture of them.............that is until tonight. I was able to get a picture that shows her first teeth. They pretty much came in at the same time. I am happy to report that it was very uneventful for Lucy. Besides a lot of drool, we didn't notice any thing else that can come with teething. Well, I take that back, she did spike a fever a week or so ago, but she didn't act like she didn't feel good and she checked out all clear by the doctor, so maybe that was due to teething. Anyway, bottom line, they are here :) Hopefully the rest will come in as easily.

Girl can eat!



As I mentioned in another post, Lucy has suddenly discovered her love for food! She went from barely eating a jar of food a day to 2 jars and a couple of snacks throughout the day. This picture is of her chowing down on her second zwieback toast stick in like 10 minutes! She must be growing in a serious way!!!

Happy Birthday, Krecia!!!!

Uncle Elliott

Aunt Tarah and Lucy

We had the pleasure of spending a long weekend in Kansas City. We went to visit Eli and Lucy's Gramma Gari and Aunt Tarah. O, and we also got to see Uncle Elliott. :) It was a wonderful weekend! Well, the company was great, the weather was cold and rainy. While we were there Gramma Gari made Lucy an easter outfit. It was fun for me to go pick out a pattern and fabric and then watch her put it together!!! It is so stinking cute! We took a couple of pictures when we tried it on to make sure the size was good, but it wasn't complete. I have included a picture, but you will see the finished product after we take Easter pictures on Sunday. Eli was in play play play mode from sun up to sun set. His Gramma had all sorts of toys and dress up clothes and masks and hats.........he never had a dull moment. Thanks for having us!!!! We look forward to seeing you again real soon!

conversations

So, lately Eli has been playing with his action figures and making them talk to each other. Some common things that he makes them say are: "HELP! I'm stuck!" or "HI" "Oh, Hi", etc.....but just now I heard something for the first time. One Buzz figure looks at the other and asks "You poopy?" "Oh, I change you" then a few minutes later Buzz asks "Who's poopy? You Poopy?" It made me laugh and thought it might make you laugh, too. If not, well, I don't know...........
