Three Months

I like to wait until my babies are out of the "Lump" stage to take them for pictures. Daniel's first were done at three months so I took Abigail yesterday (when I have my mom's help). I didn't know Daniel would be in the pics so he looks a bit unkempt but oh well. So this is how we spent our Tuesday together: taking adorable pictures of my beautiful babies, trying to pick one pose from 100, deciding on more than one and therefore 10X the cost, stopping at the super sale at Children's Place, chasing Daniel to the opposite end of the shopping center, having an impromptu snow ball fight on the way back, lunch at Macaroni Grill, naps for all!

Here are a few of the 100 pics! I have the CD so we can print little ones or order as many as we want.

Daddy Time

When he doesn't know I am looking:

When he does:

Monkey Joes

Daniel got to go to Monkey Joes twice this month. We went one day with Grandma and two weeks later with MOPs. Daniel is getting much braver and will now go all the way up the tall stairs and down the biggest slide all by himself. (He then goes home and takes a really great nap!)


Abigail hanging out with a friend. She's so pretty!


When we went with MOPs we had an incident. When Daniel started getting tired he pushed a little boy down a little slide and scared him. I didn't really see the thing play out but I heard the little boys mother say something to him. I decided it was time to go and we got Daniel's shoes on. I told him we would go wash up and get in the car. I strapped Abigail into her car seat and looked up to see Daniel running towards the arcade/bathrooms. By the time I got there I couldn't find him anywhere. He wasn't in the bathroom, wasn't playing with the arcade games. . . I walked all over the place and had about five other moms and staff members helping me look for him. My heart was racing and I was starting to freak out at this point! Finally I decided that I would check the men's room - there he was washing his hands like nothing was wrong!

Circle of Friends

So glad our house has a nice circle to run around. What else would we do with our friends?

Mid Week Fun

Watching Cars together


Tummy time
Extreme Close Up

Hi Abby

PA Farm Show

Daniel loves tractors and farms and farm animals. In fact one of his favorite shows is a horribly scripted show called Old McDonald's Farm in which a narrator takes a little boy around a small farm in New England and shows him all the equipment and animals in all seasons. We figured that this year would be a good one to take him to the Farm Show to see things up close and personal.

Most of the day was spent climbing on and "working" just about every tractor they had there. We only managed to see a few animals - some horses, goats, sheep, and cow butts. Daniel also spent a good amount of time on the Plastique yard and deck place's giant play ground display.



Abby and I spent most of the time nursing and changing diapers so we missed a bunch of photo opportunities - Jason and Steve just worked on not losing our son. We actually had a brief scare when we broke for lunch and I thought Jason knew Daniel was following him to a food stand while I tried to grab a quick bite to eat while Abby screamed at me that she was hungry. Jason came back to the table without Daniel and we couldn't see him - luckily he turned up just a few seconds later. It was super scary though, this place was packed tighter than a parade at Disney World.

New Years Day

Great Pappy's Birthday is New Years Eve and we usually try to get down to see them New Years Day. This year they tried to call off the celebration but most of the family made it down to celebrate together anyhow. We had to get little Abigail down to meet them. Happy 86th birthday Great Pappy!
