Abby Grace

We were invited to a fun birthday party that had a clown and a monkey! C followed that monkey everywhere, wait we aren't supposed to call her a monkey - her name is Abby Grace. The clown was particular about caller her by her name. Abby would run around picking at everyones plate of food and C would feed her nuts - she loves nuts. It was so much fun! Lisa - you are probably jealous. Thank you so much C and E - it will be a wonderful memory forever.

Fancy photos

I received this Gerber daisy from a Releif Society meeting. I love the Gerber daisy.

My good friends got together to roast mallows and have a good time. It had been a while since I have seen them so it was a fun reunion.

Playdo

If you don't know what these are then I am very offended! Just kidding. C and I play with playdo and I was pretty proud of these little creations so I took a picture. You can't tell how skilled of a work it is from the picture, but I assure you it is masterpiece worthy! Ok, so it is a sheep and a pig if you couldn't figure it out. C was sad after she smashed them. Nope, I don't think I could make those again!

Jaguar

This is back on February 16, 2007. C loves to stroll anything around. This day is was the jaguar that got the most attention and service. At our apartment she would run back and forth with the stroller making sure she was fast enough for the jaguar to enjoy the ride. She treats everything as if it was a baby. Hmm, I wonder if that is a reaction from having J? Either way, she has obvious maternal instincts. We love her. Oh, and Lisa; thanks for the jacket - it is so cute!

Funny Five Months Old

I am posting this a little later than I wrote it – ok a month later. Oops.

J is starting to develop his character more fully. He is so funny to watch. Here is a list of things he loves to do:

-whine for mommy and then smile, laugh, and wave his arms uncontrollably when I come to get him.

-rubs and scratches his head for fun. He has even left some bleeding scratch marks on his head!

-reaches to grab anything Mom is holding with gusto!

-Smiles when ever you look at him.

-He likes to be swaddled to help him sleep (an extra tight wrap!)

-He has his hand in his mouth 24/7. Yum!

-He likes to slap his hands together up and down really fast.

-Pulling C’s hair is always fun!

-He rolls on his side to reach the moving boxes and then scratches them. A fun interesting sound.

-Da Da Da, yup, already speaking! Just kidding. He does say it over and over when he is tired. I assume it mean that it is Daddy’s turn to change diaper and put him to sleep.

-Giggles at C only when she is at a reasonable distance.

-He loves to be held

-He is a happy mamma’s boy – sweeter than honey! Good thing too since I don’t like honey.

Wish you all could see him.

Garden Flop

Yep, they're dead already.
