Soccer!

Well, it has happened. Anyone who remembers what my first vehicle was will appreciate the fact that I am finally a soccer mom! Joshua has enjoyed being an Orange Rocket this season. Unfortunately, I have not taken any action shots so far. It might be because I am so busy running up and down the field cheering for him... Or it might be because I am carrying Lanie and taking Ellie up the hill to the bathroom. Either way, I will try to get at least one shot before the end of the season!

Hotel breakfast

Lanie style! We spent the night in Arkansas during our trek to David's cousin's wedding. It was about as easy to feed Lanie in the living room chair as it was to feed her in the dining room high chair. Our kids loved the "ga-tell", as Ellie calls it!

Little princess

Oh dear. Lanie has enjoyed sitting up lately. She likes her new perspective. Apparently, she is also learning to express her wants. I sat her down with a big book and watched this play out. Joshua was watching a show next to her, and she started to fuss as she looked to the side. He handed her a toy, she turned to the side and continued fussing. He handed her another toy, and they repeated this until he had given her the very toy that had caught her eye. So I may not spoil her, but someone else already has...! Very sweet!
