Future swimmer, I'm sure..

It seems that a future in swimming looks quite promising for K. She took a bath today and actually seemed to like it! Once we filled the bath with the proper temperature (um, nice and warm!) she kicked her legs around and seemed quite content. We even poured water over her head (she did gasp a little) but was just practicing for holding her breath... that will come later on this summer when we dunk her in the pool. Can't wait!! :) Our little swimmer in the making...

Goin' for a walk...

Today, K, Daddy, Sydney and I all went for a walk. Sydney, being a freshy, lived up to her reputation. It might have been that she's jealous of how much time I spend with K. I don't blame her.

As we walked down the street, we met up with Pip, on his leash, wandering around the street. Daddy had seen him a little earlier, peeing on the sign in front of our house, walking with his family. After chasing Sydney around for a little while we tried to figure out what to do with him. So Daddy took Pip (and the baby) and began walking him back to his house. I trailed behind with Syd. Only a few moments later, the owner pulled up in his car and Pip ran in. Pip had escaped from the house a little earlier and would most definitely return home eventually, but he decided to pick him up anyway.

Always a bit of adventure. It was good to get out of the house for a little while. Feels like spring is coming!

Life of a Parent


Living as a parent can be hectic. Aside from getting a new garage door, having an electrician and a plumber visit in the past two weeks, K has turned our world upside down...twice. What was life like before a child? What was life like before pregnancy? Who really knows...Life has changed...Life goes on...Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da! (also one of K's favorite songs to dance too)

Seriously though, Mama and I wouldn't change it for anything. Though Sydney is kind of mopey, things are pretty awesome. She might smile...she might have gas. It's not just a cliche, it's a way of life now. That's pretty cool. Plus, it's fun to take naps with the bugger (which the dog seems to like, too), and rock her to sleep when I get up for late night, weekend feedings (right around the same time pizza used to be ordered during college, go figure). Hope the pictures above satisfy the appetites of the fans.
