Ultimate Thumb Sucking

This kind of thumb sucking is only for the professionals, so please don't try this at home.

More Bed Head

Wow, and I thought I'd seen some bad bead head before...

Family Photo Shoot

We were all so excited when Blair actually got to come home the other night, so we had an impromptu photo shoot. As you can tell, Anna was especially excited to pose with me.

Talented Toes

She definitely learned this talent from her Daddy!!!

Anna's Black Eye

If you look closely, you can see that Anna has a black eye (her right one). This is her second black eye in a month. The first one happened when she walked right into the corner of the kitchen table at my mom's house (same eye). This one happened when she opened a cabinet door and hit herself with the corner of it. Poor little clumsy girl. It seems she doesn't have a chance at gracefulness (just like me and her Auntie Lisa). :)

Dr. Lybbert

For anyone wondering what Blair does all day, well this is it. And yes, that is a horse on the operating table.

Trip to the Park

Last night we went on a picnic to the park, and both kids had a blast. As you can see, Nathan was especially thrilled to ride on all the playground equipment with me.

No Sibling Rivalry (yet)

Sweet... (and Anna is so lady-like.)

Rice Cereal

First attempt: Yucky!! I'd rather chew on the spoon.

Second attempt: Much better. But I'd still rather suck my thumb.

Potty Yoga

Yes, I taught her everything I know. And I learned from Chenae.

Funny Kids

Tan Lines

Our pool finally opened this week (we have been waiting since May for it to be finished), and this is how Anna looks after only 2 hours total of swimming. Thank you Birth Mom and Birth Dad for both being part hispanic so my daughter can have beautiful brown skin! (Please feel free to criticize my photo editing abilities. I know they are lacking.)

Sleeping Arrangements

For the first couple of weeks that Anna had her new bed, she did really well at staying on her pillow and under the covers. But for the past several nights, I have found her like this.

Candyland Cake

Remember the Nemo cake Blair made for Anna's birthday? Well, here's what I did for my sister Erin's birthday while we were in Utah. Maybe not as artisitic, but so cool!!

Utah Visit

Here are just a few pictures of the fun visit me and the kids had in Utah with Grandma and Grandpa Niederhauser and Auntie Lisa, Erin and Kristen. (I didn't remember to get the camera out until the last couple of days, and then I still didn't get very many pictures of Nathan. I'm bad.)

Fairy Wings

This was one of the many Grandma presents Anna received while we were visiting. The kids are not spoiled. They are just "very loved!"

I'd Rather be at Grandma's

We just got back from Utah a couple of days ago, and this is how Anna feels about it.

Our Precious Boy

Kiddie Kandids always comes through for us!
