Blog Update

Hi everyone, Sorry it has taken so long to get pictures on the blog. Two little ones, 2700 pictures to sort through since April, and having to sleep at some point.... Pictures are not in order, but they are here. More to come soon, I'm up to Aug 1st ** Note, you can't see all the new pictures when you scroll down. You'll have to go to the month or older posts.

Tummy Time

Connor doesn't mind tummy time too much - as long as someone is with him. He doens't like to be left alone.

Thanks Gigot's for lending us this ball - it's Connor's favorite!

Here Connor, want your ball? Jo is usually pretty nice about sharing toys with Connor, but frequently I can't find his toys (she is hoarding them).

Connor also likes this ball - it crinkles.

Connor checking himself out in a mirror. He enjoys looking in the mirror. What a handsome boy

What U talking about Daddy?

So happy

(Connor is wearing Tom's hat)

Yardwork

Johanna helped me with yardwork one day. She actually was kinda scared of the real mower at first and cried. After a little take with Daddy, she was ok.

Mowing the lawn with Mom. I love to mow the lawn - really I do.

I don't think she is getting much cut.

Introducing Baby Logan

Introducing Logan, my litlte brothers son. He was so cute!

Shelby, Logan, and Johanna Johanna was constantly checking him out - she loves the babies.

Shelby, Orrin, and Logan. Orrin is such a good big brother.

Pizzeria Gaumond

We started making pizzas at home. Johanna loved to help and sample. Jo spreading the sauce on the pizza

Mmm, let me see how it tastes?

Mom, just checking to see if the cheese is fresh. Yup, it's good.

Usually I have to hide the veggies and other toppings from Johanna as we cook. Or give her a bowl to snack from.

Big Girl Jo

We put Jo's bed up on the frame and put on her new bedding. She was very proud of it. Jo frequently has a crew of animals and babies in bed with her for naps and night time.

Window Art

Johanna and I decorated the front window with our window markers. She had lots of fun doing it. She likes to say colors now, not usually the correct color, but it's a color.

Hamming it up for the camera.

Sweet siblings

Johanna loves to hold Connor. She asks to hold him all the time.

Hi - it's one of Johanna's favorite things to say to Connor.

Connor loves his big sister! He always smiles when she talks to him.

I love how she is rubbing his head. So sweet.

Many Faces of Jo

Cheese!

Ha, ha

Showing off her milk mustache

Grandma are you sure?

Night, night

Connor loves to sleep on his belly. I know it's a no, no - but he is strong enough to move around, plus I check him constantly. He has out grown this, but it use to really help his gas.

He loves to sleep on his hands, since the moment he was born.

Visiting Oma and Opa

The kids and I headed to Madison for a quick visit with Oma and Opa. We also got to spend a few others playing with the Hoiby's. Johanna had a blast, she was exhausted. Oma and Connor cuddling

Opa and Jo put the truck in the shed, since there was suppose to a bad storm and possibly a hail, but nothing happened. Can they ever predict the weather?

Johanna loves to be a passenger in the car and sits very still.

Oh, Opa. You are so silly.

Happy Haircut!

Johanna had her 2nd haircut. We just got a trim. I decided to let her bangs grow out since she will wear her barrettts. She got clips, piggy tails, and ribbons.

Such a smile

Just chillin'

Connor sat in his high chair for the 1st time when he was 2 months old. He loves to be part of the action for everything. He gets so frustrated when he can't reach the toys.

Just kickin' back

Johanna's 1st Dentist Visit

Johanna had her 1st dentist visit about a month ago. She did great, but was ready to go by the end. They did a lot of education for us and checked Jo's teeth. She got a clean bill of health! This is how we brush our teeth, brush our teeth

Taking a peek at Johanna's teeth

Are we done yet? Not yet... Dr Ed came by to inspect her teeth before we left. Everythings looks great!

Zoo Fun

Around Memorial Day weekend, Bill, Susan, and the kids came to visit. Everyone, but Connor and I, headed to the zoo. So cute...
