My Precious

as stevie wonder would say, "isn't she lovely?".....

Mmmm...Mmmm GOOD!!

Shiloh loves to eat! We started her on solid foods here and there at 5 months, she's now 6 months and still getting use to the feel of it in her mouth. So far she has had rice cereal, bananas and sweet potatoes. She LOVES sweet potatoes, but not to keen on the bananas.

Its amazing how different Waylen and Shiloh are. I can remember when we started Waylen on solids...seems like yesterday. Waylen caught on to the concept right away - food goes in and down the tube. Shiloh on the other hand - food goes in and comes right back out!! It takes double the time to feed her. But its so much fun.

Big smiles

colleen emailed me this photo at work today. man we got some happy kids.

more birthday celebrating

waylen's grandma diehr stopped by today to surprise him for his birthday! it was very sweet of her. she stopped by starbucks beforehand to get waylen his usual - a lemon loaf. even more candle blowing ensued. she got waylen addicted lemon loafs sometime last summer :) it's one of those things. soon, he'll be drinking the coffee. decaf, of course.

waylen is the big 2! look out. hard to believe the little guy arrived just 2 short years ago. proud to say he still hasn't got a haircut yet. i'm trying to go for the samson thing with him - we'll see how much longer colleen will tolerate it. at any rate, way just loves blowing out candles. all this week, we would say, "waylen, it's almost your birthday!!!" then he would make a blow noise with his mouth, blowing out an invisible candle. we celebrated this past weekend with some of our family.

bathtime!! pt. 2

shy was sitting in her little bouncer, looking at the toys and reaching for them. she was having a great time all by herself. had to take a pic.
