Ordinary Days

Here are a few snapshots from the last week in March playing around the house.

Our resident ballerina taking the stage.

Look what came in the mail!

Look at all those kids!

Marin with the house she built for Flat Stanley.

"Mom, he loves to sit up!"

Planes, trains and automobiles - Charlotte was hard at work.

A little sibling love - he is only 50% of her bodyweight....

Working on a "rainbow path".

The girls demonstrating a dance they learned at school for me - it looks a lot like the macarena!

Marin worked until the rainbow path was complete, although it is hard to see in this picture.

Timothy giving his bed a try - he seems to only be able to sleep for about 10 minutes at a time in this crib.

Weekend with the Wahteras

What a super fun time it is to watch Timothy! After hitting the two month mark he is surprising us almost daily with new tricks. Although his neck is pretty strong, Marin has to wait until he is three months old before she can pick him up and walk around with him.  She is getting very antsy and squeezes in as much holding as possible! It is pretty special to have two big sisters that like to play so much. :)

The Wahteras came out for a visit from Nashville and we had a blast. We are strongly lobbying for them to move back to CO since a potential move is in their future! 

Happy big sister and baby - yes, that is a huge bump on Marin's head, but fortunately she was fine and is all better now.

Grasping at toys


Charlotte built a tent to play in with Timothy.

See, I am big enough!!

Charlotte is always willing to be carried around.

Our coy boy who does not like to smile when that crazy, big, black thing comes out and hides Mom's face.

In their words "don't we look groovy?"

Eliza takes a turn holding Timothy.

No problem, we all fit!

Four little girls having a tea party - Lander, Marin, Eliza and Charlotte.

A little visit with Kirk

A little snow isn't going to keep us away from the playground.

All the girls!

Maybe this wagon is a little small for all four of us.

Timothy's Baptism

On March 16, Timothy was baptized at our church in Longmont. The baptism service was beautiful and he was very alert and seemed to be engaged (as any two month old can be). We feel so fortunate to have had so many of our Colorado Family as well as our church community with us to celebrate Timothy's special day. We will have more pictures coming from our church photographer, but these are our pictures. We were so busy enjoying our time at Timothy's party after the service that we forgot to take pictures!!

Many children came up to get a closer look.

Early March Fun

March has been uneventful, which is a good thing. :) We are enjoying getting to know Timothy better and of course playing with him as much as we can!

Charlotte at school with the two girls in her class - Emmy and Jensyn.

A fireman visited Charlotte's class - she is in the blue coat to the left of the fireman.

Little workers keeping busy.

Checking reflexes

Your temperature looks good little guy.



Morning dance party in bed.


Daddy with the kiddos

Happy and sweet little one

Timothy - two months old!

A visit with Jess

Timothy enjoys looking at himself in the mirror on his swing.

Success! Look at that balance.
