A New Toy ~ Poor Magg's

This just goes to show you, yet again, how absolutely patient Maggie is with Dylan.

One Dirty Happy Little Camper

Here's a few photo's Matt took of our camping trip a few weeks back with our good friends, John, Janene, Kieran, & their dog Reef. You can tell the kids just had a blast!!!!! Dylan was covered in dirty the whole time and loved it! We have a little camper on our hands.

Cutie Patootie!

Our girl is getting so big and is talking and signing up a storm. Her new favorite thing is to cuddle on the couch and read book after book after book after book as she signs the different animals. She is like a sponge these days - it's truly amazing how much fun we're having.

This week I'm off to Medford Oregon to work down at Harry & David. This will be the longest I've been away from miss d (okay, minus last summer in Philly). Matt and d have many evening adventures planned and we have a few really fun sitters coming during the days. Matt reminded me I have a camera in my new computer so I'll be able to see my family at night. Wish I could pack everyone up and take them with me!

Hello Kitty And More Food Please....

Our friend Kim gave D some really fun squeaky Hello Kitty shoes. Dylan wasn't too sure at first why her feet were making funny sounds but then she got the hang of it. Here's a funny video of her running around the house squeaking away, saying 'utto' as she loses a shoe, and then signing for more food. Awe, the joys of squeaky shoes.

Portraits From The O'Haire Motor Inn

Here's some portrait pics Matt took during our stay at the O'Haire Moter Inn in Great Falls, Mt.





Dylan seemed sleepy, but she just needed some breakfast... and a push on her bee-bo (belly button) to restart her motors.

Glacier Park

While in Montana we visited Glacier Park. It was so beautiful!!! And fun to still find snow in the spring time. Uh, I know one family that LOVES the snow....






Just don't eat the yellow stuff D.




I LOVE this next shot Matt got of Dylan - it is so her little personality - always smiling with a wave of aloha to everyone.

A Visit With The Gardner's

Here's a couple of really cute shots of cousin Stacey and Dylan. Stacey is one of Dylan's biggest blog fans and this picture is long over due. So Stacey here's to you!!!!




Back in June we went to Montana for Ratpod. During our travels we stopped in Kalispell to visit some of Matt's family. His cousin Eric and wife, Amy just had a baby, baby Walt - so cute! They were all having dinner at Amy's family's house - which was amazingly beautiful. It was a great chance to stop in and say hello to everyone. It was also a GREAT experience for Dylan - oh my gosh, not only did she get to hang out with her cousin Stacey but she got to feed the horses, pet a chicken, and run around with a pack of crazy dogs. She had a blast.






Here's Todd, Stacey's husband - oh boy D thought he was the greatest, he was cracking her up!
