Nico Portraits

Nico's first trip to the portrait studio. Funny, isn't he?






Halloween Pictures!

Ah Halloween, the number 2 in the holy trinity of childhood holidays (not sure what number 3 is…). Aggie went as a Dalmatian. She’s really into Dalmatians right now and can’t get enough of “Mamma Dadda Dog” which means 101 Dalmatians.

Sat around the pile, sat and laughed, sat and laughed and waved it into the air. (You know the song) – it happens to have dogs at the beginning.

Our New Home

After the disaster of the floods and contractors, we have moved into a new house. Here are a few initial pictures of the front and back. We are on a major street (N. Decatur Rd), but we have double-paned windows, which makes traffic much quieter. We also have a great deck and a pretty good sized yard – which I don’t have to mow!

100_6189 100_6190 Our first priority was getting Aggie settled. Here are some pictures of her new room.

Singing Happy Birthday to Aggie

video

Poor Aggie, it's her birthday, but she's too embarrassed!

Aggie's Birthday

video

You all probably know that Aggie loves the movie Cars. So for her birthday, we got a Cars cake at publix and took it to her PMO program to celebrate her birthday. He is the video of when we came into the room.

Aggie’s Birthday

Here are some pictures of Aggie eating her birthday cake! She turned 2 today, Saturday 10/10

Mommy and the babies

Couch Potato

Aggie loves her videos. When she watches them she goes into a catatonic state. We gave here a small snack of juice and popcorn (only a little bit) and look at here. She is prepared for modern life.

Cars

Aggie is addicted to Cars. She cannot stop thinking or talking about Cars nor wanting to watch the video. Case in point: putting lots of Cars stickers all over me and her arms!

Eating and Sleeping

One baby eats and then sleeps, the other rejects most of her food – or at least she did when she had strep throat! Now she is eating pretty good again.

Outside and Chalk Drawings

Here’s a few more pictures for those of you wondering how Aggie and Nico are getting along. Aggie loves the outside and especially drawing with chalk. Nico was a little jaundiced, so we need to expose him to sunlight – we found out that he wasn’t a vampire baby.

At the Zoo

I know, its been a while since I’ve updated the blog – sorry. Here are some new pictures of us going to the zoo a few weeks ago. We were getting a new roof, so we had to go somewhere (thanks B and K!!)

The Toddler Pool

They have a great pool here in Decatur for the little ones. It has a “beach” style entry, with bubblers at the most shallow part (as you will see below). In most places, the water is about 2 ft high, but it gets deeper and there are some swimming lanes for actual exercise.

We went for the first time on July 4th with Aggie’s Auntie Amy.

He is dearly missed.

Aggie used to hate the swing set, but now she loves it.

One messy eater


It was great when Aggie started to feed herself, but look at her!


Auntie A's visit


Remember how great it was for Auntie A to buy Aggie the wagon? Well, she visited twice in a month and got a lot of opportunities to play with Aggie! Too bad we only took a few pictures during her visit. Here are the best ones:


Two cute babies

We've got tons of pictures that are waiting to be posted. Here are some that were taken months ago at C and B's house. Aren't baby Aggie and Griffin cute together?



Hey, back off my water!

Cute Bathtime photos


Trying to clear the backlog of photos here to be posted on the blog. These are some cute baby in the bath pictures. Thanks to Auntie M for the tugboat!


Snow!?!?

video

Yes, snow in Atlanta on March 1st. I took this video at 11:30 or so. Its 12:15 and the snow is finally sticking on the porch and the ground. I will try to post more pics and videos as the news story progresses. Its not Aggie's first snow, but it is the first snow when she could see it and play in it!

Trip to the Park


This week had almost spring-like temperatures, and so we went to the park with Aggie. She had a wonderful time!


She hates the swings though.



But she really loves going down the slide!

Stop, Wagon Time


Thanks to Auntie McAmy, this baby has a new toy - one she can't stop playing with. In fact, she stands at the door and cries until we take her outside to play with the wagon. Sometimes, like yesterday, we had to play with the wagon 5 times throughout the day!
