Round 2

Washington DC Part One

So Bill, Sophie, and I took a little trip to the Washington DC area. Bill went to some huge deal World Motocross race to watch. Sophie and I just tagged along. It was a nice little getaway, but glad to be home! We decided to check out DC and see if it is something the kids would enjoy. We found parking is a bit of a challenge, but we've got it figured out now. We also realized our kids would probably prefer a trolley or a bus tour since it's a lot of walking. We enjoyed it, even though it was a bit warm... but we could almost already hear our kids with "my legs are tired." "how much farther." "I'm tired." and on. So we'd definitely do a motorized tour. We also didn't get to see as much as we would have liked since we got a late start and then traffic getting into DC was heavy. But oh so neat to see all the monuments!
Here are the first round of photos! (click to see larger version)

What a bad blogger!

I was crazy to think once the kids were back in school, I'd have more time. HA!

Anyway, here's Miss Sophie!

Baby Girl is 3 months and a Naughty Boy

Miss Sophie is 3 months old! (I'm a little late in blogging)
This is as good as it gets for "official" 3 month shots. Even with the kids back in school, we seem busier than ever and so I haven't taken a lot of time to take photos here lately. Need to do better for sure since she's growing like crazy!

She's such a sweet girl. Loves to "talk" and smile and laugh, but also really likes to study people. And nosey. My, is this girl nosey! She needs to be right in the middle of the action, seeing what's going on. She started rolling over a few weeks ago. Yeah, seems a wee bit early, but she's not following anyone's time table.

She's also really gotten herself into somewhat of a schedule. And doing very well in the sleeping at night thing. Don't want to type HOW good for fear I'll jinx myself.


She loves this little Bumbo seat. Such a lifesaver when I need to cook dinner and do dishes.

And my naughty boy. I hadn't finished putting away everything from our family get-together on Sunday. Including a yummy box of cupcakes. And Thomas was still up. And Thomas loves cupcakes. And Mom needed to feed Sophie. And Dad was a mere few feet away "watching." ahem. I'm sure you know how the story ends.
"wasn't me!"

BUSTED!
