My Laura

She's beautiful, silly, happy, thoughtful, clean, loud..oh, so loud. She loves her family, loves to pray, dress up and try on shoes. She's a good snuggler, for about 30 seconds and then she's flopping around like a fish out of water. The thing I love the most about her, she's mine.

Nine Months

Our little guy is nine months old now and was given the "all clear" from the doctor today. He is healthy and obviously happy. Because it was just the two of us out and about we went to lunch at Arby's.

Like a gentleman, he did the ordering for his old lady.

Nothing fancy, just the classic roast beef.

Nom, nom, nom.

A full tummy makes a happy baby.

Current Favorites

I have nothing new to say, but I always have pictures to share.

The First Attempts

Mark is almost nine months now and has decided to venture out and try something new. On Mother's Day he gave me the gift of fear and dread. Mobility.

Baby in a Bucket and Easter Eggs

I know it's a late post, but I'm pretty sure my very small group of readers won't mind. We spent the Easter break with my brother and his awesome family. The kids loved being with their cousins and Mark enjoyed the...um...bucket.

Rock

Justin spent some time this evening teaching Alice the ropes...literally.

"New" High Chair

My friend Kathleen gave me her old high chair a few months ago. It was in pretty good shape, but needed a little bit of TLC.

So I pulled out my favorite can of spray paint and bippity-boppity-booed it into a "new" chair.
