Anna is 4 months

Time is flying and Anna is already 4 months old. She is such a happy baby. She smiles often especially when people talk to her. When Anna smiles she smile's with her whole body. I can tell when she is smiling even when her back is towards me. She can now roll over and she loves to talk. Usually in the car we have our best conversations.

Seattle Trip Part II

We ate the Hanger Inn. The girls enjoyed it we ate chocolate chip pancakes outside and we watched the planes come in.
The weather was beautiful and you could see the mountain in the background.
The last 30 minutes at the beach Sarah decided to join in the fun and jump in the waves. The girls were screaming and giggling.
We rode the train to another town the girls thought that was cool.
Anna enjoyed the ride.
The last night we decided to stay in a hotel in Seattle so we could make our 7:oo am flight in the morning. Unfortunately that didn't happen and we spent the whole day flying without many breaks. We did not get home until 10:30pm and we had no luggage. The girls took everything in stride and I was so proud of them. We had a wonderful vacation. Abigail was so sad to leave, she kept telling me she wanted to stay because she would miss Grandma. When we arrived home the girls did not want to go back to Seattle, because of the plane ride. Abigail told me she wishes Grandma didn't live so far away. I know as soon as the memory fades of the long plane ride they will be begging us to go back.

Seattle Trip Part I

We went to Seattle last week and had a really good time with Grandma and Grandpa. There was much anticipation surrounding the trip. The girls had fun on the plane. Abigail did not like how her ears popped and Sarah thought she was a big girl because she was able to chew gum on the plane. Drinking out of cans on the plane was also a major hit.
Sarah looking like she is a tech savy teenager.
Abigail and I enjoyed playing a game of Brain Quest. Anna was very loud on the plane she wasn't crying just talking and yelling at people to look at her.
We enjoyed being outdoors, especially knowing that the temps were above 100 back home. Anna enjoyed telling Grandpa all about the trip.
Abigail chased chickens at Great Grandma Denton's house.
Sarah enjoyed holding the parrot at the pet expo.
Abigail enjoyed the parrot as well.
Abigail wanted to ride a horse when we were in Seattle and we found some at the Pet Expo.
Sarah did not enjoy the pony ride.
Anna loved having people talk to her.
I don't think my girls have any inhibitions about holding any animals.

I think the theme of the week was animals. We saw, held, tortured, and cuddled everything from dogs to snakes. I will do another entry later with the second half of our trip on it.

Abigail and Sarah could not wait to go. The weather was pretty nice and everyone enjoyed the waves and sand.

Sweet Anna Baby


I thought I would create a slideshow of some of the pictures we have recently taken of Anna. If I had one word to describe Anna it would be sweet.

Just Fishin

Josh took Abigail and Sarah fishing this weekend to catch fish for the aquarium. They had a lot of fun and I love the pictures Josh took of them. Josh has such an eye for pictures.






























We had a wonderful 4th shared with our family and friends. The girls were so excited to pop fireworks. Abigail enjoyed the whole night. I think Sarah could have done without the fireworks, she kept telling me in a very matter of fact manner that she didn't like fireworks.
