EASTER EGGS!

Mike and Louise

I can't comment on your blog (and I don't seem to have a non-work email) so my comment is going here.

I LOVE the baby photos- the little feet are so cute.

Vacation!

I am very busy trying to get everything packed before the movers get here on Friday- but here are a couple of photos from our vacation. The wedding was beautiful. and Canyon taught Mark how to crawl and sign back- we brought home a whole different boy.

a couple more house photos

This is marks room from the inspection- we are not going to repaint it.

Here is the kitchen- there is granite here and in all the bathrooms
This is the showing the living room open through the dining area into the kitchen. (huge chair- not ours)
Now if you want to see more you will have to come visit :) The whole finished basement is a nice guest suite, two rooms and a bathroom all to yourself when you come see us.

Two of our new paint colors

Over the weekend we painted three rooms (with mom and lisa's help). btw if you have painting to do- we got the low fume no-VOC paint from sherwin williams, it was great. Somehow I don't have any photos of the third painted room, oh well, later I guess.


HEre is the living room (from the inspection day- not our furniture) we liked this color and are not going to change it.
Master bed room for the inspection
and below it the color it is now



Extra bedroom before and below it extra bedroom now.

wow- it's been a whole week!

Sorry for the delay in postings- we had a very busy week here last week. My mom came in for a few days. We bought our house! and Mark got another tooth. He has 5 now- I would take a photo-but he is not into letting us see those top teeth.

Here it is!
Here we are about to walk into our house for the first time as owners


Mark saying "wait a minute- where are we?"
Mark peering into his new back yard- and Grandma making sure he doesn't fall over. Although he has gotten very good and pulling himself up and staying there- he can even do it one handed.

Tim opening the window to get some light into the front room- hereafter refered to as the music room.

Herman is running

I had to take a nail file to the spark plugs and use some starter fluid but Herman made his first spring appearance! It is really warm here today so I am calling it spring. Although I know it will be winter again tomorrow. Of course the only pictures are of Tim working on and driving the car- but I promise it was me. well and lots of pictures of mark.
Dad- If it works I will upload a little video so you can hear how he is running. This is after I took him for a short spin and warmed him up.
Oh- and how do I get car grease out from under my nails before we go out to our fancy dinner tonight??

mark is trying to stand up

the bumbo chair was the first thing he realized he could climb on
He turned his toy box over and used it as a prop for standing

Leaning over backwards to see the starfish!

Mark gets mail

Thanks Nanna!!!

peek a boo movie

sorry it's a little dark. Tim is holding Marks hands and I am hiding behind Tim and popping up. The camera is steadied on Tim's shoulder.

Look what I can do

With something to hold on to I can stand up (with daddy just out of the photo- just in case)


I can snuggle with my new friendI can be so happy!


I can eat at a fancy indian reasturant (and be a little angle the whole time)
I can go for a ride in my new sling that mommy made for me.
