Bath Time Fun

Rubber ducks and water are a perfect combination for fun. Would you like one?

OK. Let me first kiss it goodbye.

I can hardly contain my enthusiasm ... watch how fast I move!

Wow!!! 2 ducks!!! Double the fun and the speed!!!

Julia at 10 months - Happy Birthday Cassia and Renata

Julia baked a cake for Cassia and Renata's birthday. She waited for them but they took too long to come so she blew the candles herself. Afterward she remembered that mom had told her to wait - uh oh ... she might be in trouble!

Double Trouble

We went to Ikea and got some cabinets to organize the office. We started putting them together but before we could finish them Julia turned them into a play ground. Raquel has no idea how she got in ... one minute she was in the floor and the next she was inside the cabinet. Here she is demonstrating how fun a file cabinet can be!

Look how much space to play!

You can almost stand up..

Careful with your head ... Cabinets are hard...

But if you put your head outside you can fit just right .... don't worry, mama can save you from opening file drawers
After almost falling, sitting can be lot's of fun!
But it is time for a new adventure ... can you see me starting to put my feet out? Let me show you how it is done.
MOM! I CAN'T GET OUT!
Ooops!
The edge of the cabinet on her back was a little too much to handle....
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!

Trouble

We left the plastic container drawer unlocked for Julia. You should see the joy she has in pulling everything out. It almost beats the joy of getting into mom's pantry.

She will share her toys with you ...

Completely engrossed in the activity not noticing at all we are watching...
Hum... Did you call?

Goodbye Scha & Walt

We recently had to say goodbye to good friends - The Thames Family. Walt just graduated as an Oral Surgeon and was transferred to Washington DC with the Navy. We will miss them.... (couple in purple).

Business Trip

Julia and I get to follow Neil on his business trips every once in a while. This time we tagged along to Corpus Christi. This trip was very short day trip ... Julia and I got to stroll along the waterfront while Neil met with the office folks.

The joys of infant picture taking

We've learned that for every good picture there are 50 goofy pictures. We are thankful for digital photos and inexpensive computer memory. We love the goofy pictures just as much as the good ones and have been saving them all.... She is so full of life and expressive!
