Proof of Baby

There's nothing like a crawling baby to turn your life upside down. Now that the Snuzz is on the move our house has become a maze of baby gates...which I think has cat proofed more than baby proofed.



You might be a red neck if these are your baby locks...we ordered classier ones, but they have been delayed and Rosabelle's curiosity has not.



And to add an increased level of difficulty, today she started climbing! I bet her Dad has already looked on e-bay for baby helmets. Notice the Michael Jordan tongue move.




It is so much fun to see this little person start to discover the world. And her cuteness level is reaching all time highs, as evidenced below.



She is excited to see Ella and everybody this weekend to show off her new tricks and be giving her father at home a heart attack thinking about stairs in DaNae and Ben's house. It's ok, I bet Ben has some rope.

Happy Valentine's Day!

My two true loves

Ribbons and Bows

Rosabelle and I went to Spokane last week to visit and we ended up having a bow making extravaganza with Dori, DaNae and Mom. It was a great visit and I was glad to be there to see Grace taking her first steps and Gavin teasing Ella.

Cheese and Snuzz (did not make this particular bow)

The bow Mom made that makes everyone fawn over her at the grocery store.



The Steeler bow, of course

Super Bowl Champs!

So far 2009 is shaping up to be the best year ever. This season was amazing and it was so fun to watch the games with the snuzzler...serious mother/daughter bonding. Here's Rosabelle in her full gear for the final time of the season. Thank you, Steelers! See you in September to make our run for #7!!!! And thanks to Aunt Dori for the rad pom poms. Rosabelle was voted MVP of our Super Bowl party.
