Awakenings

I've been trying to get a video of John smiling - he started last week. But have been failing miserably. Here's a little bit of one, not sure if you can tell or not...

I like to move it, move it

Here's Lucy and our beautiful niece, Karma, having a little dance party Saturday morning.

Time is Flying By

Just some pics of what we've been up to the last month. John is growing like a weed. His one month appt is on Wednesday, we will see if he is bigger than Lucy was at her one month. Also, we went to Chelan this past weekend and had a great time with our good friends Darrin and Lisa, and their daughters Kailee and Alex. .

First Weeks

Here's some pics of us adjusting to our new life as a family of four.

Naked Gardening

Well, if you haven't heard, the hot new pasttime for Spring 09 is vegetable gardening. We are continuing our usual herb garden and tomatoes but have added peppers and sunflowers which Lucy and I planted together. Also, we are going to try a butterfly garden, but we haven't gotten to that quite yet.

Ryan's been working hard on the backyard, leaving a nice pile of dirt for Lucy to play in. Today, she spent a good long time playing with her water table and the mud she created.

Fashionista

Well, as I've posted before, Lucy is absolutely in charge of her wardrobe. In fact, today alone, we've gone through three costume changes. Most of the time she insists on wearing a dress. Other times it's all one color - pink, yellow, brown, blue.

This week she got new flip flops which are her footwear of choice now. Yesterday, she wanted to go to the daycare at the gym, for one reason alone - "show everybody my new flip flops." Which she properly modeled for everyone.

Easter in the Northwest

True to form, Easter brought torrential rain, making the Easter egg hunt a little soggy. Luckily we were prepared and brought the rain boots.
