Dress for Success

as a Leprechaun???

Z's own little place in the world.

Z made his very first fort underneath the black table in our living room. No Adults Allowed!

Cruising the Wraparound

Escape!

Wait a second...is that gate open?!?

I better get a closer look...

If the coast is clear, I'm totally out of here.

Hey Momma, I was just sitting here looking cute. =) [whew! that was a close one!]

Woohoo!

Early Adopter

Zachary is already stealing my phone, and making calls and sending text messages. Now I have to worry about him stealing my laptop and making Skype calls too!

more of my 2 little monsters

and just for fun, here is the week 3 and week 11 picture, to compare to the week 43 pictures above!

Hold Still Z!!

 

Trying to get Z to hold still for a picture, is nearly impossible these days. But we needed a 10 month old shot of Z next to the monster, and Gunner, and the rest of his minions! He's so fast, as soon as you get him set up with the stuffed animals, he's already trying to crawl off the couch. And if you don't help him down, he will dive off head first. (yes, we've had some near misses!) Once he's off the couch, he'll hold himself up and stand there, looking around for a moment. I think what he's really looking for is an escape route, but he settles for crawling or cruising as fast as he can to a toy, or a momma or dada. This really is a snapshot of my life right now: Chasing Z, while trying to make it all look good!

I Scream, You Scream

 

We had an awesome month Auntie Kitty! You certainly know how to make us all laugh and smile. We'll share you with Iowa for a little while, but we want you to ourselves again soon!!

Love and miss you!!

So Big!

Z is not always a fan of bath-time. Sometimes he happily kicks and splashes, and other times, he kicks and screams, and tries to climb out. But he always loves cuddling up in a towel after the bath, and I love it when the towel has ears!

Can't we keep her??

She may sleep a lot, but Auntie Kitty is so much fun when she's awake!  We've been so spoiled the last month...especially since she isn't afraid of a poopy diaper...that means a lot to Z, and even more to Z's momma! We really don't want to send her home...

Rockin Out @ Rocks State Park

Hiking in the woods with a baby strapped to your back is a ton of fun! Especially when you're the one riding in the backpack! (By the way, check out that wave in the first one, he's so good!)
