We’re back from our wonderful weekend in San Diego and while we have HUNDREDS of pictures to share with our loyal blog fans, the vacation tornado swept through the house while we were gone so there is lots of cleaning to do first. Here are a few pics to “wet” your appetite: Continue reading California Girls (and boy)
No rubber ducky is safe from Claire. Her voracious appetite in the bathtub can only be satisfied with two-handed snacking of Sir Squeaky (aka, the Ducky Unlucky). Bon appétit, Claire! For the rest of the bath-time fun pictures, click Claire’s wrinkly toe below…well, that is what happens when you’re in a tub for 45 minutes! From Bathtime – 6 … Continue reading Ducky Unlucky

Here’s the online album with the photos from her baptism at Blessed Kateri, and a special thanks to Grandbob for playing paparazzi while Mom was otherwise occupied (hey look, Gina is in pictures for once!). Father Albert seemed so excited about having two babies to “dunk.” And DUNK he did, we and the other couple both … Continue reading Baptism!

And don’t worry, what you can’t see in some of these pictures is my hand holding the twigs so she can’t eat them. If you (ahem, McManda) … Continue reading More Outdoor Pictures
I’ll try and get a photo of Claire smiling later, but she was just too fascinated with the grass to pose this morning. Which would you choose? Playing with the green “hair” that doesn’t scream when you yank it, or smiling at Mommy with that camera again? Continue reading That Grass Tickles
