Hello all...yes, i'm actually blogging. I've done quite well of abandoning this ol' thing. Shortly after Penny's 1st birthday, both of my sisters came in town (woohoo!) and yes, the blog got put on the back burner. Then i was almost not wanting to do it b/c i knew i would have entirely way too many pictures to post....but alas, here i am. :) So get ready...go grab a drink, go put on your pajamas, get comfy b/c we're comin' in hot with the pictures!
having morning tea with daddy.
sometimes the best toys are boxes...duh.
uhh...nap time?
i couldnt find penny in the house...kind of concerned after a couple of minutes. she had snuck into the spare bedroom and was having a good time rockin and roll' all to herself.
oh, and since we checked in last, penny has been teething. i almost feel like "teething" is an understatement. this is on a whole other level...she has been working on 10 teeth. 10!!!!! AY AY AY!
but you cant help but laugh at a silly little face like this.
date night! happy 31st birthday tom! my parents watched penny for the 1st "overnight"...i cried at the thought of someone else putting penny to bed beside myself, but my mom said she did great! phew! it was wonderful spending an evening out with friends. :)
pinball at grandpa and grandmas.
This is easton...the adorable son of our good friends, jay and brandi. cuuute!
my sisters were both in town at the same time...AWESOME! dana was here for 2 week and celine was here for 6 week. sweet! somehow it still flew by...and somehow i did not take a single picture while dana was here. bad bad bad. i finally made it a point to leave my camera at my parents so i was forced to take some!
mr lane wearing his favorite color...blue.
mr gage.
my parents are fun grandparents! they have a trampoline in their basement!
ok, i know i shouldnt posted pictures like this...and further more i shouldnt even be laughing, but i cant help but crack up at penny bracing her fall. ha! her face!
looks like she made it out ok.
lane telling gagers he's sorry for whatever reason or another...doesnt matter, this picture is adorable.
i'm all about the nail art these days...my sister, celine's, toes.
dad's home!
oh yeah...penny is also in full on climbing mode.
"uhh mom, help me get out of this thing."
having fun!
penny's new toy...the inflatable donut.
yesterday, our neighborhood did our 2nd annual 4th of july parade. its just a small thing really, but its fun to get all the kids dressed up, decorate bikes, eat fast melting bomb pops and socialize.
brett and tom doing a good job on daddy-duty. lookin' good boys!
(couldnt get penny to not concentrate on her cookie)
brooks was melting right along with his popsicle.
umm...no penny, no.
penny's 1st trip to the zoo today! doesnt she look thrilled?! ha!
having some sort of a telepathic conversation with a gorilla.
roar.
proud daddy.
whew! that was a lot of pictures! i'm freezing now from sitting in our basement, i'm going to go warm up next to my hubby!
until next time!
xoxo.
