First day of school!
Matthew and Jenny were so excited for their first day of school that they woke up before Tom and my alarm went off at 6:30 this morning. Here they are getting ready. You can still see the sleepy looking in their faces. Jenny forgot that she needed her hair fixed! After it is fixed. And

Our last outing for a while
A few days before Ben and Jamie moved we were able to go to Vedawoo and take some fun pictures. Here I will share a few. We sure do miss those guys, but hear they are doing amazing in Peoria. We are very happy for them. Now we are just going to plan a trip.

We are going to be home-owners!
I am very, very excited about this bit of news. It is the craziest thing ever, actually. We started looking for homes last Thursday and Tom called and got us pre-approved for a loan. Then we found a couple of houses that we liked and were in our price range on Friday. On Saturday we

What am I going to do now?
Last night we had just sat down at the dinner table and Tom, who is very perseptive, asked me if something wrong. I didn’t really know why, but I was feeling a little upset. So I sat there thinking for a couple of minutes and realized that I have been shoving feelings for about two

The Bobble-Head
I am not exactly sure why Lucy does this. Jenny did it too when she was this age, only not quite so vigorously. Maybe it is because she likes the dizzy feeling she gets when she stops. Or maybe she knows she is just funny. This post is especially for Rachel and Casey and for

Kidisms

For the Father of My Children
I know it is a few days since Father’s Day, but I still want to post something. It has been seven and a half years since Tom and I were married and six and a half years that Tom has been a father. And in all that time, there has never been a time that

Lucy’s Moves
Lucy is becoming more and more mobile. She enjoys rolling clear across the floor now and putting little pieces of ?!?! in her mouth. Here you can see her teething on her finger. She enjoys making the floor her own creative space. I’m not sure how long it will be before she decides to start

A Camping We Did Go. . .
For the past while we have been planning a big camping trip in the mountains outside Laramie. This last weekend we packed up our gear and headed up. We prepared tinfoil dinners ahead of time and these turned out great over our wet-wood fire (we have had much rain in the last few weeks). You

Not a Sitter. . .Yet
Lucinda is now seven months old. But one wouldn’t know it by the fact that she doesn’t want to sit yet. I captured a picture of her “reclining” in the boppy. The only way she will sit for a bit (meaning a minute or less) is if she is completely distracted by a toy or
