Cody and his cousin, Isabelle, at great grandmas house.

Cody started walking a couple weeks ago. He will be one in two weeks. But at least he is still slow at walking so I can catch him. Can't catch him when he drops and crawls....

Sarah's dolls and animals. One picture taken Nov 2009 and one was taken in 1985.

I walked into the kitchen with my camera in my hand looking for Bob and Cody. I found them, Bob was standing beside the table reading the newspaper, Cody and Chico were enjoying the bag of baby yogurt melts, scarfing them up as fast as they could. I guess Cody can reach the table...or maybe it was Chico this time...

Faces of MarcE

I was trying to find pictures of little Marc to print and ended up making a collage in iphoto. I am still trying to print some pics but our printer leaves a green haze on everything. The new printer is on its way so I have time to play with this blog.

We bought this fischer price lawn mower that blows bubbles as you push it. The idea behind the purchase was twofold, a toy for MarcE to play with and a tool to get him to talk more. He loves bubbles and that is one of the few words he says, so I envisioned us pushing the toy and blowing bubbles and saying bubbles over and over.....Reality? You have to keep all four wheels on the ground in order for it to blow the bubbles and push it at a good rate of speed. And a two year old has trouble with the four wheels on the ground concept and would rather play with the bottle of bubbles in the front of the machine spilling the fluid instead of pushing it. So it is now in the garage , rinsed of the detergent waiting for summer when Cody can play with it. He is beginning to walk now so the concept of all four wheels on the ground will take him a couple more years to get.
