Strong and Happy

She is one of the happiest babies I know! Always smiling or giggling. Her teacher tells me that at least once a day, she wakes up giggling in her crib. Not many babies can say, "I crack myself up!" but I'm pretty sure if she could talk, this is what she'd say. :)

She loves looking at herself...and who wouldn't!

Baby Birdies

We had a Momma bird build a nest in one of our hanging pots. She hatched 3 healthy birdies and hung out with us for awhile. Dan continued to water the plant over the 2-3 weeks and it was quite hilarious to see Momma bird pop out and give us a piece of her mind. The last time Dan went out there he about got attacked by Momma bird and her 3 little babies...that was the last time we saw them and Dan couldn't be happier about it!

Dylan's Visit

Carson's class has a doggie that has been visiting one family each weekend. This last weekend was our turn to have Dylan stay with us. We had a busy weekend and Dylan got to experience a few new things...

Friday: Dylan's weekend started with a walk over to Westview. Dylan got to see some of the big kids practicing their football skills and he got some exercise by running up and down the bleachers...something we often have Carson do when he has a lot of energy :)

When Dylan got home, he thought it would be a good idea to keep Savannah company on her play mat. She really liked having him there...Dylan made her laugh a few times.

Saturday: We started off our Saturday morning hanging around the house and watching cartoons. Dylan really liked Mickey Mouse Clubhouse...Goofy's Bubble Bath was definitely his favorite!

After cartoons, Dylan helped Carson take apart our computer desk to take up to Goodwill. Dylan was really silly and was found hiding in one of the compartments with Carson.

Saturday afternoon we went to the Farmer's Market - Dylan said this was his first time there. He loved seeing all the people, music, and yummy food! We all enjoyed a wonderful pastry snack while we were there. It was a lot of fun!

Sunday: Dylan's last day with us was a rainy one! It rained ALL day long. Luckily, we were able to head up to Vancouver so that Dylan could meet the Budz Family and Grammie/Grandpa.

We had lots of fun playing during our visit and even got to meet a few other friends - Cupcake, Ruby's doggie and Uniqua, Amelia's bear.

Rice Cereal

Savannah has been chowin' down on her milk so we thought it was time to introduce the outstanding concoction of Rice Cereal!

"Okay, so what are you doing, Mom?"

"Oh, this is a new bib...I like it!"
"Alright, I'll give it a try"

"Seriously, you want me to eat that again?!"

"I am closed for business, no thank you"

"Ahhh, fingers"

As anticipated, it wasn't all it was cracked up to be but we'll keep practicing and will soon get a glimmer of bananas and avocados, hurray!
