beacon rock park

these pictures are a little more recent. we went for a drive up the gorge (on the washington side) and stopped at beacon rock state park for a snack and to let the kids run around a bit. it was beautiful there.maddie & samson:

"take my picture, mom!" but then doesn't look at the camera. oh well. :)

noel, making a break for oregon:

our first warm day of spring...yay!

here are some pics from last month when we had our first warm, sunny day. it was in the 70s! imagine that! haha. anyway, we had a wonderful time in nana's backyard. noel got his first driving lesson:

maddie didn't keep her clothes on very long. here she is in the hammock:

auntie amy joined her:

noel's clothes came off shortly after maddie. he kept his shoes and socks on though. here he is sitting with nana, enjoying a strawberry:

turns out, he didn't enjoy the strawberry. but he still got it all over the place.here's "pappy keith" with the dogs watching his every move, hoping he'll drop something their way (he usually does).

noel, when he still had his pants on, drawing with sidewalk chalk:

uncle dan & auntie amy:

amy's tan lines should be interesting:

one more pic of noel running around, enjoying the sunny day:

pregnant again

well, the title sums it up nicely. . . i'm pregnant again! and as you see from the ticker on our page, i have a LONG way to go. ;) this baby will be a wonderful christmas present. it's early, but so far they're guessing december 14th for my due date. i'll keep you updated as things progress, but all i have to report right now is my constant nausea.
