Santa Came to Our House!

Guess what???!! Santa came to my house!! I couldnt believe it! I was a little scared, but i didnt cry like the last time i met Santa! Stephanie cried...she was scared. I even helped him put presents under the tree! I'm not sure where my Daddy was...he missed Santa...but when he came back in the house, we told him all about it! I would also like to wish you all a very Merry Christmas!

If You Could See Me Now

I cannot believe it has already been a year since my mom passed away. It has not been an easy year, to say the least. Here is the video I put together for her funeral...we watch it often and continually remind ourselves she is in a better place. We love and miss you, Mom. Hope to see you soon.

Silly Stuff!

We havent posted in awhile...so here we are doing a little talky! Mommy is in charge of all the little kids costumes for our Christmas play this weekend...which means she has to wash them, find which one fits who...and sew any rips or tears...yes, thats right...i said sew. i know you're scared...not half as scared as i am...next thing she might start making my clothes....YIKES!!! Enjoy!

Visit with Santa

I woke up this morning with a purpose...i wanted to see Santa today. I told my mommy we needed to go see Santa...she reluctantly agreed. i was so excited! i was going to tell him i wanted a baby rascal dog (little black lab) that barks, and two barbies. We finally got to the mall where he was at and stood in line for a couple of minutes. Then i'm not sure what happened, but i turned totally shy and scared to death. stephanie was fine until she saw me crying...then she started to cry too. anyway, here's our time with Santa...enjoy. ps - dont blink because it doesnt last very long!

Family Traditions

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving Day. We started with family pictures...and then went to dinner. We went to my Uncle Jim's Sister's house and all of our families were there. I'm still not quite sure what it was all about, but there were alot of people and tons of food. It was so much fun. Then Friday I asked Daddy if we were getting a Christmas tree and he said yes, lets go get one. So we went and picked one out and brought it home! On Saturday, Mommy said she wanted to make a gingerbread house...she said something about doing it every year at this time. sounds like fun to me...and you know stephanie, if foods involved...she's all in! Then we decorated our stockings because mommy said she wanted us all to have one with our name on it...that was fun too...it took a very long time for them to dry, but once they did...Mommy was so happy with them. We hung them up. Now that the tree is up, i said we needed to go get the presents...but Daddy said something about Santa...not sure who he is, but hey, if he's got presents...he can come! Then today we went to Sunday School and started practicing for the Christmas play...i get to be a cow...or a sheep. Then as we were leaving Sunday School...it started to snow! Mommy said we are supposed to get 6-10 inches!! All weekend, Mommy said family traditions are important...and i agree...we've had so much fun this weekend...lets do it again next weekend!

First Snow!!

IT SNOWED LAST NIGHT!!! I was so excited when mommy woke me up and took me to the window!! I asked if i could put on my "new" snow pants and she said YES!! She bundled us all up, stephanie was not as excited about it as i was...she doesnt like shoes (let alone boots), coats, hats, basically everything you need now that it is cold outside. We went outside and i jumped right in the snow...stephanie analyzed it all...i made a snow angel...stephanie was still thinking about it...i started to make a snow man...stephanie....still processing it all...finally mommy put her down in the snow, but she wasnt too excited about it! I was able to make a snowman at the babysitter's house and at my house! Then i was mad because mommy wouldnt let me bring the snow into the house. we have pictures and some videos, but mommy is trying to figure out how download it all from her "new" phone.

Hunters Prayer Service

We had this really fun night at church this week...Pastor Steve called it "Hunters Prayer Service." We all had to wear bright orange and camo...Mommy took us to the store and bought us "new deer" shirts and i got a "new" hat like Uncle Jim's!! I am so proud of my deer shirt and hat. i want to go on another trip with Uncle Jim and find more deer!

Beautiful vs. Sponge Bob

I went to the dentist today...she fixed my two front teeth! Mommy says i look beautiful...when i first looked in the mirror, i said i think i look like sponge bob! Mommy said nooooooo waaaayyyy! However i look, i'm so glad it is over! All i want for Christmas is my two front teeth!! but mommy says it will be a couple years before my new ones come in...so in the mean time...the most beautiful sponge bob it is!

Look out Michael Phelps

I'm not exactly sure what Stephanie thought she was doing...but she kept doing this...getting onto the edge of the couch...balancing...bending over...sticking her hands behind her (as if she was getting ready to dive) and then taking off! She has incredible balance for a 18month old...cant wait to get her into gymnastics! Not quite the calming down, before bedtime, soothing activity we usual do...but for tonight...we hope it works.... i call it the, "jump until you drop" method!

Happy Birthday...Again!

Here's the video I have been working on for my dad for his birthday...it was fun talking to him about the "good ole" days...and the "not so good ole" days. Dad had a twin...Janet...They were best friends. She somehow ended up with Polio while he was away serving our country. Uncle Sam sent him home but he arrived too late. He wasn't allowed to return to duty since he was the only child left in the family. Mom passed away the same day Janet did...only 60 years later. He's had quite the life. Love the song. Love the old photos. Love my dad! Enjoy!

Squirrel House

We have squirrels. Lots of squirrels. I enjoy watching them. We feed them. We name them. We try to catch them. We love squirrels. Well, apparently, they built a big next in daddy's tool shed. Not a good idea. The roof started cracking and they were "making deposits" on daddy's tools, lawn mower, and snow blower...another idea not thought out very well on their part. Well...Daddy tore down the squirrel nest, fixed his tool shed roof, and said, "It is good." We were upset. Mommy tried to explain to him the joys of the day brought on by the squirrel family. Daddy began to feel guilty (really, he did!) and went online and downloaded plans for a squirrel house. He took out some scrap wood, made some measurements, made some cuts and then I got to help him put it together! It was so much fun! Then, the best part, was watching daddy climb up the tree and attach the squirrel house to the tree! He went up really high! Then he jumped down!! What a Dad! Now we are on "Squirrel Watch" to see if they find the house and actually decide to move in. Winter is coming and there's not much time. We put peanuts all around to see if they can find it. We'll keep you posted!

Happy Birthday Papa!!

Today is my papa's birthday. We have so much fun with him. My favorite activity is to help him fill the bird feeders every week. He likes to roll around on the floor with us...and he likes to swing in the swing and watch for deer. Thats alot of fun too!We had a birthday party for him yesterday. I not excited about the fact that he is going to florida for awhile...he said it gets too cold for him here! We'll talk to him on SKYPE as often as we can! We love you Papa!!

I WANT TO JUMP!

I love to jump. I jump all the time. I jump on the floor, i jump on the bed, i jump off the couch...i'm just a regular jumping bean!! Stephanie wants to do whatever I do...and she really wants to jump. She tries every day to jump...she never quite gets off the ground. Tonight, however, she actually got airborne! We were so excited...and she was a little shocked herself! We tried to re-create the jump where she actually caught some air...but it didnt quite happen! Enjoy!

Happy Birthday Professor Bollmann!

Today is our Uncle Tim's Birthday!! We wont say how old he is...but we found some really cute pictures of him when he was younger!! He has affected many, many, many people, families, and students by his wonderful, inspirational, sound, insightful, and sometimes humorous teachings. Have a great day, Uncle Tim, Professor Bollmann, Bro. Bollmann, Husband, Son-in-law, Brother-in-law, Father, Papa, Brother, Son....the list goes on, and on...as does his Christian Heritage. We love you!

Happy Birthday Grandma!

Roses are red
Violets are blue
Wish you were here
To hear "Happy birthday to you!

You've touched us all
But now you're gone
Although its very hard
We find the strength to go on

We love you!



We are still trying to get more pictures for this...so if you have some you would like to include, please email them!

Picture Perfect

Well....Mommy went camera crazy today!! She said it was a Picture Perfect Day...so away we went! She said we may have one or two good ones out of the whole bunch!! Stephanie couldnt sit still, i got tired of smiling, we wanted to play in the water more than look at the camera....and i just could not find my "new" Willy (the whale) in the water. I looked, and looked, and looked. Then we went to the woods to try to find a "new" buddy (caterpillar) as my old "new" buddy died last night. It was a beautiful day and overall, we had fun! We can't decide which is our favorite picture...would you help us out? Look at the timer when you see your favorite picture and send that time stamp to us in the comment section!

Crazy Day!

Well, yesterday was a crazy day! it started out as any normal day around here...eating, drinking, playing, going potty, school work...the usual. Then mommy had this bright idea of taking us to McDonalds for a treat so we could play. I love McDonalds...its my "new favorite." I'm not sure why everything is "new" now, but it is. I just like saying "new." I got in trouble in Sunday School when i was talking to the teacher about my "new" daddy. I dont have a "new" daddy, i just like saying "new" before everything! Except not daddy. Mommy said i cant say that anymore! Anyway...we were playing at McDonalds and stephanie couldnt get up to one of the slides, so my friend was helping her by pulling on her arm...and well...we all know what happens when we pull on Stephanie's arm...Yep...back to the hospital. I had to stay in this room with this nice lady while Stephanie had some X-Rays taken...but it wasnt broke...just back out of joint. The Doctor showed mommy how to twist Stephanie's elbow so she could put it back in joint herself. Mommy said, "Probably not"! Then as we were leaving the Doctor, we found a fuzzy caterpillar crawling in the parking garage! Mommy picked it up and let it crawl on her arm and shoulder the whole way home! I was so excited! I had a "new Buddy"!! We made a nice box for it and gave it leaves and sticks and stuff. It even stayed there all night long! Mommy said today we had to find a jar for Buddy...whatever that is....I hope its a "new" one!

Thank God For Country Girls!

Here are some photos from my wonderful weekend on the farm and at the pumpkin patch! Thank you Uncle Jim and Aunt Nini for taking me on my trip...we were in the car for a long time ("2 hours" is what i tell everybody but it was more like 4 or 5 hours) but it was worth it! Thank you Uncle Don and Aunt Sharon for letting me come!

Its Pumpkin Time!

We carved pumpkins today...the ones my uncle jim and aunt nini got me from the pumpkin farm we went to this past weekend. I had soooooo much fun! I also decided to show off a little bit and jump off my bed! I do this alot and my mommy says, "you're gonna get hurt." But i dont. Then stephanie decided to jump too...she cant jump off the bed yet...she makes mommy very nervous! Mommy was having problems keeping the camera still....sorry...Enjoy!

Morning Talky!

Mommy and I are filling in for Samantha by posting an entry to our action-packed blog! We havent been awake for very long, and we havent fixed our hair...but i wanted to sing so mommy decided to record it. Sissy is on a trip with Aunt Nini...to see the cows and the pumpkins and all sorts of fun stuff that i am not old enough to do yet! I'm sure she will be telling you all about it on upcoming blog posts. I miss her sooooo much! I think mommy does too!! Enjoy our morning talky!

Yellow #5

Well after much testing and process of elimination...we have discovered that Stephanie is allergic to "Yellow #5". Which, in case you are all wondering, is in Ritz Crackers and Code Red Mountain Dew! Yes...yellow is in Code Red! The process has been very interesting, but glad it is over! When her body becomes covered in hives within minutes...its a little scary!! Pictured is Stephanie's back at the Allergy Clinic getting tested for 25 food ingredients...one of which was soy, which was our first thought. But after the little dot #16 didnt turn into a big dot, we knew it wasnt that. Have you ever tried keeping a one year old on her belly for 20 minutes???!!! Not fun! But as you can see, we drew all over the paper on the doctor's check-up table! Keep an eye out for Yellow #5!

Boys!

Well, i must say, having a new neighbor - a boy - has already taught me so much! Mom says its been so long since she's been around boys she forgot just how different they are! they dont use the fence gate, they jump over the fence. They dont sit on the swing, they stand on it. Everything is part of an obstacle course. No walking...always running or jumping. Its funny to watch. Mom said she knows now why she had girls...although she always thought she'd have boys! Mom actually let me go into his backyard the other day...which is about 30 feet from our backyard. She wouldnt let me out of her sight...stephanie was mad she couldnt come over too. i guess this is how it will always be...i can do things she wont be able to do...i told her she might as well get used to it now. she kept crying...and so did mom! I just stand around and watch.

New Neighbors

Well...moms freakin' out because we have new neighbors. I guess thats not the part that has her jumping the walls. I think its the part that they have three little boys...and maybe that parts not so bad...it may be more the part that the oldest boy, Gaven - age 6, and his younger brother, Eli - age 4, keep coming to the door and asking for me. "Can Samantha come out and play." A simple request in my book...however, mom seems to have issues with this. She keeps saying that its not supposed to happen for YEARS! Something about keeping me hidden in the basement. Sounds scary to me. Not sure what the big deal is...all we do is ride bikes, play basketball, play in the sand box...only in our backyard. I asked if I could go to his yard and she keeps saying "not today" and running back in the house...she's really having a difficult time with this. i think its fun having new neighbors! And what are boys anyway?!

In My Room!

Stephanie now has a big bed! We both went from a basket, to a crib, to a big bed! Aunt Nini (Laurene) came over and we moved things around and decorated our room up. It looks so cool! I just love it! We also got some new princess shoes. Stephanie wouldn't let go of the cupboard for along time before she took off walking in the "high" heels! It was a fun week! Enjoy watching us, "In our room." Thank you, Nini, for making it look pretty!

Happy Birthday Daddy!

Today is our Daddy's birthday! We got him up extra early and gave him the cards we made. He was so happy about that! Then mommy made him a nice breakfast. Then when he left for work we made him a cake! it was so much fun! Mommy says we are going to meet him for lunch and take him his cake! We're usually in bed when he comes home from work, so we have to celebrate on the road! We hate it when he leaves for work...but get excited if he comes home early and we get to see him before we go to bed! Happy birthday Daddy! We love you soooooo much!

Stephanie's Owie!

Stephanie gets alot of owies...more than i have ever had in my 3 1/2 years of life! She has so many, she's not sure which one to show you first! She also learned a new word this week...."sorry" which she has to say to me many times a day! I guess i have to say it plenty too! She loves to lay on her belly and color and talk...its funny to watch. Enjoy her video and her cute little laugh!

Naptime in the Playhouse

Mommy made us a neat playhouse in our room. We love playing in it. Today we decided to take a nap in it!

Coloring with Papa

What a week this has been! We've all been sick with colds...mommy has been very sick and she went to the dentist today and they totally knocked her out, so Papa is staying with her...and us...for awhile. We cleaned out the turtle tank on Saturday and I was supposed to be watching the turtles, and i forgot...so little Ann got away...we couldnt find her for two hours! Then mommy finally found her under a bunch of chords behind the tv. I wasnt scared, but mommy sure seemed to be upset about it. I knew she would come back. Anyway...here we are coloring with Papa...and Stephanie deciding to use the crayons to pick her nose rather than color with them...this will be good as part of her wedding photos!

August - Summer Fun!

Well, every August, everywhere, there's a fair! We went to a couple in the area, in the cow state that we live in, there was no shortage of cows! We kept busy in August and had alot of fun. The days are getting cooler...fall is on its way! Enjoy!

Sponge Rollers...hmmm

Well...mom tried the ole' sponge rollers...alot of hassle for the little curl she ended up with...cute none-the-less! I wanted them in my hair too...but realized its not all that its cracked up to be! Stephanie kept taking the curlers out...mommy was getting very frustrated!

Talky Blog

Here's a little update to see all are doing well and a brief explanation from Samantha as to what happened yesterday! Then of course anything else she could think of to talk about and keep watching herself on the screen! Always fun!

First Trip to Emergency Room!

Well...Stephanie made her first trip to the emergency room...and it was sort of my fault. We were our porch and I was in one of the tall chairs and Stephanie wanted up...so I was pulling her arm trying to help, and I guess I pulled too hard. She started screaming and mommy came running. We couldnt find what was wrong, but every time we touched her arm she screamed louder. Mommy was a little upset, but she handled herself okay. We put ice on it and Stephanie calmed down. She would not move her arm. She looked like she was on drugs....which I bet she wished she was! We got to the Dr. (mommy dropped me off at aunt Nini's work) and the Dr. knew just what was wrong. He told mommy to hold Stephanie and he twisted her arm and put her elbow back into joint. She screamed so loud! But after that it was all better. Mommy said if Stephanie needs help getting up that I should call her and not pull her arm so hard. I had fun at Nini's work though!

Pin curls....Maybe not!

Well, mom did it. She tried to curl Stephanie's hair! We didnt have small enough sponge curlers, so she used bobby pins! It looked cute...but as far as the curls go....well....lets just say we went to the store, on our way to church, to buy small sponge curlers! I'm so glad I have natural curls and dont have to go through that! Mom says we better hope and pray they last! Daddy says, "Straight is great" and to just leave it alone!! We'll see what happens next Sunday!

Olympics are here!

Go for the gold! Thats what mommy always says! I love watching the Olympics...especially the gymnastics and the diving in the water. Yesterday we were a part of the Milwaukee Kids Olympics at the Betty Brimm Museum! It was so much fun. We walked in the parade, Stephanie carried the torch, until we got to the stairs, then she couldnt do it anymore! then we played games....it was so much fun! Go USA!

Tribute to what would have been their 54th Wedding Anniversary

Thursday (August 7th) is the date of Papa and Grandma's Wedding Anniversary. It would have been 54 years that they were together. Here is a little video we made for Papa for his "would be" anniversary. There are many photos from the big 50th Anniversary party all my aunts and uncles gave Papa and Grandma. Papa loved the video when we showed it to him. I was glad to see Grandma again. I told Papa it would be okay and he didnt have to cry. He was happy to see Grandma too. We have to keep showing Stephanie pictures of Grandma so she can remember her too. The songs are by Papa and Grandma's favorite singer....Conway Twitty!

More July!

We "got around" in July! We went to the Betty Brimm Children's Museum with Aunt Laurene. They have so many interactive things for us to do...it was alot of fun! Then we went to Toys R Us and spent the money Uncle Roci gave us. It was very hard picking out our favorite toys. Mommy said she's not going back there for awhile! Then we went to the zoo with Daddy! I think my favorite was the elephant...no maybe the polar bear...no maybe the goats....I dont know! I love them all! Then we finished the very hot month with a trip to the beach with Papa. Mommy said she used to go to this beach all the time when she was a little girl. Its real close to Papa's house. She used to ride her bike there. It felt so good to be in the water! See you in August!

July 2008

July has been soooooo busy! But we have had alot of fun!

Uncle Roci Came to Visit!

Our Uncle Roci came to visit us for just a short time yesterday! He had a very long lay-over on his way to California so we all had dinner at Uncle Jim and Aunt Nini's house! It was so good to see him. He even gave Stephanie and I some cards that we can take to the toy store and buy toys!! I cant wait to go! Then we had to take him back to the airport and I wanted to go on the airplane with him but mommy said, "not today." Thank you Uncle Roci! We love you!

Alphabet Time

We have started school...with mommy. She tries to make it fun...but I really want to ride the bus and play on a playground...not happening at this school just yet! We are learning a letter a day (or two days)...taking our time. Today we learned about "A". Mommy made these neat papers that we put on the refrigerator...she tried to find what she wanted online, but couldnt, so she decided to make her own. She said she would email them to anyone else that wanted to use them to learn their letters too. Pretty soon i'll be writing my own blog entries!!

Quilts for Sale!

Anyone getting cold at night?? Probably not quite at this time of year...but plan ahead! Grandma Phillips has quilts for sale and you will not find better made quilts! A link to her website on our blog...on the right hand side...under "Our Favorite Links" - Quilts by Grandma! They would make great gifts or just keep them for yourself!!

Out of the Mouths of a Babe!

Mommy has to go to the dentist today...she's scared...she does not like the dentist. But I told her what I learned at Vacation Bible School..."Have no fear....Jesus is here!"

Garage Sale!

Hey everybody! We have been soooo busy this week getting ready for a garage sale. Mommy is selling alot of our toys (which she says we have too many and dont even play with them all!) and alot of our baby clothes. It was very hot today, and she says we have to do it again tomorrow!! At least I get to play with my Cousin Leah! We've been painting signs...and our faces!

4th of July - Busy Day!

As we said before, we had a wonderful weekend with family and friends. On the 4th of July, we started out trying to wake up Papa and Nanny by knocking on the door...then blew some bubbles....then went to a parade...then went to Aunt Ninny's and Uncle Jims for a picnic...then went on the boat (see fishing trip)...and finished the day off with a bang! Thanks to Uncle Jim, we had our very own fireworks show...and we didnt have to fight the crowds! I had alot of fun...and yes, Stephanie is always eating or drinking something! We picked up so much candy from the parade, Mommy says we're set until Halloween!
ps - mommy says, nobody sings it like Whitney!

Our First Fishing Trip!

We did so much this weekend....many posts to come! Here was one of the highlights...our very first fishing trip. We actually went on the boat twice. Once with our Papa and Nanny who were visiting from Oregon. The second time to actually fish, with our Daddy, Mommy, Aunt Laurene, and Uncle Jim. I know I saw Willy in the water...He needed me...I kept calling him, but he never came to the boat. Oh well. Maybe next time! Oh and when you are listening to the song and here it talk about our "cold brew"...rest assured...it was apple juice!

Funny Story!

Chris was in the bathroom combing his hair getting ready for work. The girls and I were fixing his lunch, as usual. Chris yells from the bathroom, "I think my hair is getting more red." And without hesitation, Samantha yells back, "No Daddy, just white." I haven't laughed so hard in quite awhile!!!

June 2008

Time flies when you're having fun!

Calling All Heros - VBS 2008

I had a wonderful time at VBS ("school") last week. Thank you to everyone who made it a wonderful success! Here's some photos of the week...with our theme song (thanks to my cousin Phillip)!

Peter...Walking on the Water

A cute story, that must be shared with all!! Today I picked up Samantha from VBS and having asked the teacher this morning what the lesson was about, I knew just what questions to ask.
So I said, "Did you learn about Peter today?"
Samantha replied, "Yes!"
"What did Peter do?"
She said, "Um, he walked on the water." You go girl, I thought to myself!! She's actually learning something. I was so proud.
So I kept asking, "Where did Peter go when he was walking on the water?"
Samantha replied, "Well," pause, "He went to McDonalds"!!
So there you have it...from the Bible Scholar herself! Not sure if it will preach or not, but it sure was cute!

Weekly Update - VBS

Hi everybody! We've been sooo busy this week...I'm going to Vacation Bible School with Larry the Cucumber!! We are having so much fun. I'm learning how to be a hero for God! Mommy is taking lots of pictures so we will have a nice video at the end of the week. Here's what we've learned so far....

Happy Father's Day Daddy!

Hi everybody! Mommy helped us make a little video tribute to our daddy! He's the best. We cant wait until he comes home from work every day...we race to the door to greet him every night! We had so much fun last week riding in his truck driving through all the flooded roads after the big rain! Its almost 5 minutes long, so it may take some time to load....Enjoy!

Craft Time

Hi everybody! Here is a little clip of our craft time...today mommy finally let my buy some water color paints. i have been wanting to paint for quite some time, but she said it was too messy. The color on the video is not the best because we do our crafts at the kitchen table and stephanie and i stand in the bay window, so the glare from the sun has washed out the picture. Stephanie doesnt really do a whole lot during craft time except make funny faces and funny noises. sometimes she talks to the birds outside! Enjoy!

It's Official...She's Walking!

Hi everybody! Well, the day has come where Stephanie has chosen walking as her main mode of transportation. Still a little wobbly...but doing very well...even carrying her blanket. Pretty soon I'll be chasing her all over the house...or she'll be chasing me!!

Hair

Samantha has now decided she no longer wants "bands" (rubber bands) in her hair. Thankfully, her hair is naturally curly...little water...add some mousse...she's cute as always. Stephanie now has enough hair she can start having "bands." Not much...like Samantha's first pony tails (top photo), we just take what we can get. Stephanie's hair is stick straight...any suggestions on what to do the day she decides she no longer wants "bands"?!!!! Pray saints, pray!

THE ZOO!

Hi everybody! The highlight of the St. Louis Trip for me was the zoo...I wish I could have stayed there all day! Here are some pictures...thanks to my mommy's friend Lisa who took most of them!

St. Louis

Hi everybody! Here's a quick overview of our trip to St. Louis...we went all over and met so many people. Of course, mommy didnt take pictures of nearly everything or all the people we spent time with...she was having so much fun she forgot! We went to picnics, weddings, parks, and the zoo...which we will show you next. Enjoy!

St. Louis

Hey everybody!
We are still in St. Louis having a blast. We've met so many aunts and uncles and grandmas and grandpas...we've been staying at Uncle Tim and Aunt Pat's house. Uncle Tim took me to see some turtles, snakes, fish, bears, deer, and so many things. It was so much fun! Of course, mommy is not taking as many pictures as she should be, so i have nothing to show you...yet! Tomorrow we are going to the Zoo, so she said she will take alot of pictures there! All for now! Bye everybody!

Brushing Our Teeth

Hi everybody! Here is a clip of us brushing our teeth...yet another action packed film for your enjoyment! The significance of this one is that I got a new toothbrush...one with a motor just like mommys! It makes my teeth soooo shiny! Also, we are going on a trip with Papa, so we may not be able to post for a couple days. We are going to St. Louis, Missouri to stay with my Uncle Tim and Aunt Pat. I'm so excited! Bye everybody!

Papa's House

Yesterday we went to Papa's House!! We love going to his house. There is so much to do....when its warm outside its alot more fun. Yesterday we fed the birds. Here is a little clip that shows what we did. Its definitely not one of our more exciting video clips you will view here on our blog (and excuse mommys head as she tries to figure out just exactly she was videoing!)...but everything seems to just slow down at Papa's house. I'm not sure if it is because Papa moves slower, or because we always relax when go out there, or if its just because it is so beautiful with all the trees, birds chirping, frogs burping, butterflies flying, and all the other neat stuff in the country...at Papa's House! Enjoy!

Gymnastics Class - I Can Fly

Enjoy!

Big Dan and Little Ann

Here's a close-up view of Big Dan and Little Ann. They like to be in the water more than they like to be held...but I hold them as much as I can because, "I really like them!" For your viewing and listening pleasure, enjoy, "Under the Sea."

Thanks!

Here's a little song for you to enjoy! Try not to listen to mommy sing...just me!

Morning Sunshine!

Here is a little clip of our mornings at Walters R Us! We enjoy gathering on Mommy and Daddy's bed and discuss the day ahead. Today we are reminiscing about my birthday presents, which include baby sea turtles. I dropped Big Dan behind the changing table. He is now back, safe and sound, with Little Ann in the tank. Stephanie likes to add an editorial comment here and there. Enjoy!

Welcome!

Welcome to the Walters R Us Blog!

Due to popular demand, we thought this would be a great way for everyone to be able to keep up with us and our cute little faces!

Enjoy!
