Guitar infatuation

This is a common Saturday occurence....She loves the guitar. Every time Dan gets it out, she is on his lap in an instant.
It doesn't help his prep for Sunday morning, but he truly enjoys that his daughter wants to play with him. We wonder, will she be musically-inclined like her daddy? Or just a wanna-be like her mommy? (Well, at least I can mostly sing on key.)

1st Bath Together

Aren't they so cute in the tub together? After a weekend away spending time visiting lots of family, it was now bedtime. I really needed to get them to bed sooner rather than later--since it already was later! So it was a quickie bath for him with his sister. She seemed to enjoy showing him how the bath is done, and as you can see, they were having a great time at it! Maybe we have two water puppies...and not just one...(we already knew she LOVES "tath-time"!) :-)

Speaking of puppies, we are quite sure that our Lucy is expecting her first litter in April! It will be fun (and lots of work!) More to come on that as her day approaches, and with pictures of course!!

When I get some pictures of their visit sent from Grammy, I will be sure to share some of the precious moments that these two cubs had with their Papa and Grammy. Unfortunately, I regret that we forgot our camera on this weekend trip, so there were none taken to remember their last visit on the farm with their Farnsworth cousins before they move across the state (9 1/2 hours away!) We are going to miss having them only an hour away!!

Lots of changes!!

Wow...our household is certainly undergoing lots of good and new changes. Since the last post, over a year ago now, we have had significant changes! Yes, the first and foremost of all being the addition of our new little cub. He was born on October 29, 2006...now almost five months old! His big sister is growing more accustomed to his presence, and is actually becoming more of a big sister. She greeted him this morning as he awoke (with her in his face), saying "Hi, Baby! Hi, Baby!" Over and over. It is sooo sweet!!
It has been a transition going from one small child to two...but it is getting easier everyday. We don't regret our choice to have them close together one bit! They are already growing up together so much. It is a joy to behold. He is so happy, cheerful, talkative (downright noisy at times!), and a wonderful laugher. I joke that we should have included "Isaac" in his name after his uncle because he laughs so much. :-) Since his birth, our little princess became a "big girl" practically overnight. That's what it seemed like! He was so tiny and vulnerable...and now she felt HUGE and so grown up!! Amazing what a little change in perspective will do.
Our family continues to change daily...but I'll have to say more on that later. There is plenty to talk about. So today I'll start with this...and then off to completing our taxes! Oh the joys...!!!
