Butternut Squash!!

Here are some pictures of Rowan's first eating experience with a spoon and actual food that is not milk: it's butternut squash! I like this sequence of pictures, it really shows how well she took it...I guess :) She did seem to like it though, she didn't cry, just couldn't figure out what the spoon was, and gagged when she tried to swallow the food. It was pretty darn cute!!

Go Seahawks!!

I love these pictures! It was just the three of us watching the game on Sunday, that we unfortunately lost...again...and Rowan was so funny sitting with Ryan on the couch. It looked like she was really watching the game!!

1st Day of 1st Grade

Lucy started 1st grade today, she was pretty excited, but I think coming home from Disneyland two days ago has finally set in. She was in tears tonight at bed time, and got out of bed 3...count 'em, 3 times, crying because she missed Disneyland and the Tiki Room so much. I felt so bad, because I could totally relate, you have one of the most memorable experiences of your life thus far, and then you come home and it's rules and bed times, and school...this picture kind of captures the mood she was in this morning and this afternoon.
The bus.

Ryan's cousin Danielle at their house in Bellingham. She and her fiance Rob met at our wedding two years ago, and they just got engaged!! This was their engagement party last weekend.

Rowan training for her boxing classes that we're going to get her signed up for...just as soon as she can sit up on her own. Or maybe stand, that'd probably be easier if she could stand for the boxing sport.

Four Month Old Feet

Here we are on the moment Rowan had discovered her feet...laying on my bed as the August rain poured down, she was screeching happily and then I looked over and she was trying to put her toes in her mouth, which I hadn't ever seen her attempt. She kept trying and trying and pretty soon she had both feet in her hands, and hasn't left that position since.

Trying to hold a bottle by herself...still needs a little help.

Eating her feet in the bathtub...with the soap and everything.

Pretty 4-month old girl. This dress is from Rowan's Great-Grandma Carol who lives in Ohio. We did a little photo shoot and she did awesome for it...except for when she kept falling over to the side and would just proceed to put her feet into her mouth, but it was still cute :)
