Crunchy and Bouncy Time

Every morning between her first bottle of the day, and breakfast, Hope has "Crunchy and Bouncy" time. This is Short stack's favorite time of day because most of the crunchies fall on the floor for him to eat. It is also my favorite time, because for 15 minutes, each day, both my babies co-exist in harmony.

Here is Crunchy and Bouncy time captured on video.

BTW...the grunting and snorting is the dog and not me:)

Farewell to Summer.




I can't believe that our first summer with Hope is over. The weeks of swimming, barbecuing, and eating watermelon seem to have passed in a flash. And although I'm sad to see summer go, I am super excited to share my favorite time of the year with my daughter. I cannot wait to play in the leaves with her, to see her in her first Halloween costume, to take her trick or treating and watch her take her first bite of Grammy G's Thanksgiving stuffing.

Here are some picture Hope enjoying the last few days of summer.

If you won't blog, I will!




I've been a very bad blogger, and as you can see, Hope is trying to take over for me. Aside from blogging, Hope has many new talents. She is a very good walker, and is working her way up to running. Her vocabulary includes: Hi, Bye, Daddy, and Cat. She loves emptying cabinets, and rearranging furniture. Plus, she is an expert at changing TV channels, muting the TV, and turning it off, when you are trying to watch it.

Hope has noticed that there are a number of frequent visitors to our blog, If you enjoy our blog, please introduce yourself. Don't be shy; we like to know who our friends are.
