| | Pictures of our life---

Ian has discovered his toes and also his voice. Right now he's telling a story in a deep guttural grunts. He's so pleased with himself--much like a man who's enjoying his bass morning voice.
important moments-- [The first time Zachary said, "Mommy, take a picture of me."]
[Zachary's first portraiture]
This past weekend we got to leave on a mini-vacation. Someone had booked a hotel then had something else come up. Instead of canceling their reservation, in a grand case of generosity let us benefit instead!!! They told Steve he deserved a vacation after all the long hours he'd been putting in at school. We thoroughly enjoyed every minute!!! The mountains aren't where we would normally plan our vacations, so it was kind of neat to do something different from the norm. It was thoroughly relaxing and by the time we came back the tired yawns and shoulder knots were replaced with contented sighs.
We visited a train museum:
The details were amazing and intriguing. The traffic lights even changed colors.
Drove around on the Blue Ridge Parkway: Zachary was explaining the definition of a valley to Teddy II. He was SURE that these mountains were close to Grammie and Grandpa's house. It did look a lot like Virginia. The leaves were a week or two past their peak, but still very pretty.
--charmed-- While his window was down, a leaf floated in.
Swam, relaxed, hung out at Barnes and Noble, drank coffee, ate good food, played in the leaves and other nice things like that: A rainy day + a 3 year old boy + canvas sneakers--not my brainiest moment.



We're still smiling. |
