J-dog, On the move



Jesse loves swinging with Lulou




9 month picture, complete with spit-up on his shirt--aww yeah!




First ride in the jogger with Daddy




Love this pic...both kids are staring at the rocks and shells--Lucy wanting to put them in her pocket, and Jesse wanting them in his mouth.




Quick hike up to Bridal Falls (Jesse's first)




His new nemesis: the stairs




They will be mine, oh yes, they will be mine




I think he's in training...




Training is paying off




Seriously paying off




His coach--Lucy




She's very supportive of his progress!  :)



Agassiz Fall Fair, 2012

Off to the fair (Auntie Jenn, Uncle Darrel, Audrey and Vanessa)!!

 Lucy was a little nervous when getting on for the first time...

...and then she warmed up considerably.  She still talks about "Stormy" the horse. 

Biding their time...

Lucy picked the only horse with USA colors and a flag...atta girl!

Jesse spent his time at the fair in a semi-sleepy daze. 

Success=Beautiful weather and a sno-cone



I told him to stay away from the weirdos in the beer-garden, but some kids don't listen!



Double Trouble

August Travels and Adventures





This is the last time he'll fit in here!

Seaside, OR

Not really excited to pose for pictures...

Also not excited to pose for pictures...

Lucy's cousins Ronnie, Dylan, Blake and Cody

Goofballs

Amy and Ross hammin' it up

It was super hot so we brought out the kiddie pool and made some Blake soup

Our trip to Children's Hospital to get Lucy's cyst removed

Jesse wanted to join in the fun...

They had a pretty cool waiting area for Lulou.

That crazy Mama grin was three parts nervous and one part caffeine

Lulou and J-dog

Lucy loves doing laps around the house, especially when she gets to wear my running hat. 

Lucy's first track visit--can't believe we waited so long!

Jesse's 7 month pic

The front yard--our favorite destination after dinner

Can you see my new tooth?

July Fun

Say what?!  Jesse's going to start eating solid food?  Not my oatmeal, right?

First bite!

Up to no good, I promise you...

 Jesse's first road trip to the coast started with a stop-off at the park in Everett WA.  Lucy was, as expected, very excited about all of the "pettable animals".

At a rest stop in Raymond, WA (last official pic of our beloved Chewy)
And no, that is not how Jesse travels in the car. 

Lucy was doing some exploring with Papa Donut at the beach

Building castles (and acting like a loon)

Family pic, July 16th, 2012

Lucy was very excited about the horses that were walking along the beach

Such a pie...

Back home, first time in the double jogger

J-Dog!
