Our Semi-Annual Blog Post....

Well, it's been a while since we updated. Here are some pictures of our spring and summer.

Trenor loves playing with balls. Doesn't matter if it's a tennis, whiffle, or soccer ball he loves throwing them. Here he is trying to catch balloons that are caught up in a fan's breeze.

Bella loves to help, especially in the kitchen. When drying dishes she knows where they go better than I do.

One of the highlights of summer was WATERMELON! If you can't tell they enjoyed it very much :)

They enjoyed this swing very much. Was fun to watch them snuggle together like this.

Bella enjoying her roll as "Big Sister" until he swung back and knocked her over....

The other highlight of summer was the pool. I don't think I've ever seen someone with Trenor's enthusiasm for water. Warning: you will get wet if you get near Trenor and a pool.

Early this summer Bella moved to a toddler bed. We built a shelf for her books that she can look at after she wakes up. They both enjoyed helping to assemble projects for their rooms.

Trenor is almost as good as the guys I work with at the cabinet shop....

Trenor got weirded out by the magnetic tip.

Bella very proud of her new step stool :)

DOGGIE!!!!!

Miss Cautious.

Can't see her face, but love that you can see her excitement in her hands.

He thought it was cool, until slobber got on his hand...

My little cowboy

My brave and trusting girl.

Hitting the trail.... see you next time.

Pictures from the Summer

At the Alamo!

After all of us got our pictures at the cannon, Bella made sure her doll got a turn :)

Unlike Bella's first July trip, Trenor got to fly. He even got to sit in the open seat next to us!

Bella succeeded in getting her favorite chair on the couch

Trenor's first birthday!

As long as he is awake and his tummy is full, he is almost always full of smiles.

Oh No!! It's not summer any more!

We will try for a longer update soon so stay tuned....

Summer

It's been a very full summer so far. Here are a few shots as we finally are getting around to updating this blog.

We are building a sand box for Bella, she absolutely loves playing in the dirt and driveway, so hopefully this should keep her entertained for hours once we have it finished.

I was pushing Bella on the swing the other day, and she asked for her baby to be put in the swing next to her's. Here she is swinging with her baby doll.

Here is Trenor's first real bite of solid food. He loves food and gets so excited that he spits it all over. We are figuring out ways to get him food he needs to chew a little bit, so we don't need to put a drop cloth down and wear a bib ourselves.
