De Ja Vu

Raif telling me Lily needs to come in.
Bailey at our house in La Jolla telling me I needed to let Boomer in.

I love when they do some of the same things and I get to revisit when Bailey was a baby. Raif is also looking at the wine rack thinking he might try and pull off one of the bottles!!

The Jail Bird Strikes Again

As I'm sitting here updating the blog the little jail bird decided to crawl under my chair, again. It's hard to tell but there are posts going across all four legs, so he has to crawl under one of the taller ones to get out. This time, he decided to scream until I rescued him!

Painting is So Much Fun!

The masterpiece in the works.

Don't all kids love to paint? It was probably one of my students favorite things to do, and my least. It was always such a mess and there was always at least one spill. But, I did do a lot of painting with my students, and now with Bailey. We taped on a big poster board size piece of paper to a chair and voila, there was our easel. We managed to have no spills, but a little paint in her hair. The masterpiece is not quite done, we'll have to continue tomorrow.

Raif the Jail Bird

He crawled under my chair and couldn't quite figure out how to get out

He finally got it and crawled out successfully!

Fun With Raif

Saturday Morning Fun...We licked baby puffs and stuck them all over Raif's face!
One for the memory books, he will deny ever playing with his sister's dollhouse...ahhhh, living proof!

Sun Valley, Idaho Part 7

These are pictures of the river that runs through Margaret and Charley's property. Colby and his dad moved some rocks to build a small dam. I promise you Charley and Margaret were there, I just didn't seem to get them in pictures. I think Margaret got some pictures on her camera, so I'll have to get them from her. For those of you with kids, I'm sure you know how hard it is to get everyone in pictures. We had such a great time and are so thankful that we could go spend time with them. Traveling with kids, especially babies, is a lot of work, but worth the effort. Even though they both probably won't remember the trip, the memories Colby, my mom, Colby's parents and I have made the trip memorable.

Raif and my mom swimming

We got to swim at the golf club Charley and Margaret belong to. They had a great little pool for Bailey and a big pool that we could all enjoy. We had lunch there and Raif got his first taste of a pita chip. That night we went over to River Run Lodge to show my mom the ski slopes.
