What's the haps?

Tippy toes gets me a better grab.You are now free to move about the furniture...

Lots of standing, means lots of falling...learning to fall on my booty!!!

My crazy spaghetti class...yeah, not so much.

Hey ladies.

All done!

Getting ready to go down the slide with Daddy!

The swing...yeah, whatever...I still like my books best.
Goodness gracious, great balls of fire!

folks, it doesn't look good...your going to need a new transmission

Magic carpet ride with Daddy. A whole new world!

Rollin' in my 5.0 with the ragtop down so my hair can blow...

The Little Trio (plus a Cat) That Could!

We survived our very first, all consuming, family illness!!! I know it's not a developmental milestone, nor is it a feat in and of itself (as I am sure many a family has dealt with this), but it was our first nonetheless. AND, we made it! It was just a little confirmation that we can (and did) do it! I guess that is what comes with the territory of having children.

I would love to be able to protect everyone from illness all the time (myself included), but once you open the door to a world of bugs, viruses, runny noses, hands that go in the mouth all the time and social events...I guess you open the door to reality :)

In any event, we are all better and a stronger family unit for it. Happy Fall!!!

I love this Mug!!

SHE SAID...

She wanted to climb the mountain...and that's exactly what she did! Here's the little 'ol granny from Texas showin' the mountain who's boss!! Rich and my dad went too ;)

They are off!!Here they are at the base of "Scar" mountain (it's just behind them and believe me it's much nastier than it looks!!)Can you blame a girl for needing to rest!

Mom and Dad at the top! How beautiful is that view behind them!!?

I guess the rattlesnake thought he would be safe all the way up there, he was wrong!

Catching their second wind on the way down! My mom was HURTING the next couple of days. You could say Rich was a little SORE too ;)
