Summer Sampler This summer has been a wirlwind! We've had so many adventures, moves, roadtrips, etc. Here are just a few of the happenings...more will follow...eventually

playing at Grandma's

First professional hair cut with cousin Rylee

crawling, pulling up and cruising!

. . . And 9 Years Later . . .

Happy Anniversary!

Country Roots Run Deep

Here are the girls on Grandpa's farm...we are finally getting back to our roots.

Farewell to Arizona

The time has come for us to say good-bye to Arizona. Robb has accepted a Civil Engineering job in Idaho (which we are very excited about). We are sad to leave behind all of the friends we've made over the last 5 years and the WARM sun. We will be thinking about you all down in AZ when we are chipping ice off our car windows.

Happy "Half" To ME! I'm 6 months old already.

Baths are my favorite thing!

Eating is one of my least favorite things.

(you wouldn't know by my size)

Twins?

Every once in a while people will ask me if these two are twins. I always think the people who ask must be nuts. But after I downloaded this bathtub picture, I thought...If I hadn't birthed these two at seperate times myself, I might think they are the same age too. (at least from this picture).

Happy THIRD Birthday!LOVE YOU, BITS!The day started with banana-strawberry rollups (those are strawberry eyes and lips on top)

Later came free lunch at Chick-Fil-A

The night ended with adoring and eating her Wow-Wow-Wubbzy Cake

She loved the cake which was made by her creative dad.

So in her honor...here are a few of her favorites:

• Favorite food: berries & cookies
• Favorite Song: "The Golden Plates"
• Favorite word: "Actually"
• Favorite Toy: Mermaid bath doll
• Favorite Friend: Cash from upstairs
• Favorite Joke: To untie people's shoe laces...(it never gets old...for her)
• Favorite flavor: SUGAR
• Favorite Activity: Spinning
• Favorite Fear: Swimming
• Favorite People: Her Sisters

Captivating for all Ages

Can You Name The BABY?

At 5 months, am I 1st, 2nd, or 3rd born?

Was this one from the Jurassic, or Triassic? Brent, Julie, this is in honor of you! We are finally retiring the remainder of the Sony you gave us 6 or 7 years ago....was it really that long ago? It has been a good monitor. And even with a purple-crayon border (added by our first born a couple of years ago) its still not too shabby! Only a bit of a Dino. Thanks for supplying us with the most important piece of household technology for nearly a decade.

Move Over, Meg!

This is the new 80's Glam. Top Gun Style. I promise there was no mousse in the making of this hair do. It just looks like this at breakfast most days. I guess you could call it the "original bed head." Meg Ryan perfected the bed head look throughout her career, but my baby has it naturally.

Gram & Gramp VISIT!

Fun in the cattle car at the "train park." We miss you, Geege and Grandpa!

"Blues-Can-Do, So can YOU!"

Our Valentines day was a blast. As you can see from the poster, "daddy" got into things this year. One of the girls' favorite TV shows is called "Blues Clues". He made them their own Blue's Clues Treasure hunt. There were blues clues all over the house and they were so excited to end with jumbo suckers and a special supersized valentine. Thanks Bub. We love you too.

Help! Will Someone Save Me??! 4 months old! This sweet baby gets more love than she'd like sometimes. Her life is a blur of wild princess dresses flashing before her eyes. She often wears this "dazed and confused" look paired with rapid blinking.

Often 'tummy time' turns into 'learning time'

I love walking in on these two...I never know what I will find.

A Very Merry Monterey

This picture makes me smile.

Sunshine-y and beautiful, and the best company. We miss everyone.




We had such an awesome Christmas.

Why I can't blog/journal... 'Cause I'd rather be reading this. Go here. Get it. Read it. Love it.

Graduation to a Booster Seat Just in time for a holiday road trip too.
Images of the trip to come...
