Graham Crackers


Paige just started eating big girl food. Her favorite is graham crackers. She sure can make a mess though. She is also doing this thing with her tongue all the time. She loves to stick it out. We are not quite sure what that is all about.

Savannah is Published!


Savannah published her first book and I got to listen to her read it to her class. It was about a camping trip with a fun trail. She is a great reader and she has a great imagination. She was so excited about it that she asked me to come hear her and I am glad that I did. The kids in her class said it was the best story ever.

Our Aniversary

It has been two years already. We were able to celebrate at the beach this year. We went to a restaraunt with awesome clam chowder. Grandma and Grandpa Bigelow and Grandma Bulkeley watched the kids at the condo and they had a great time too.

Paige at the Beach


This was Paige's first visit to the beach. She loved the breeze and the ocean sound. She took a good nap and then woke up to play. She tasted the sand and felt the water with her toes. She didn't even mind the water. Later we went swimming and she was splashing all over the place.

Avila Beach


February 17th, 2007 - Here we are on the balcony of Grandma and Grandpa Bigelow's condo for the week. We came to the beach and it was summer weather. It wasn't too hot or cold it was perfect. The girls were very excited to go to the beach. When we got there they thought that they would just play in the sand. When they noticed their hands were all dirty we told them to wash them off in the ocean and they were hooked. They went in and out of the waves and even did some wave jumping. They were getting brave and had a great time.

Camelot

We got to go play miniature golf on Saturday. We had a great time. Everyone got a couple good holes. No holes in one but what seemed to be most important was who was first in line for the next hole. The scores came out Jacob first, I was second by 2 and then Savannah, Hannah, and Kaylie and Nate tied for fifth. The best part was chearing for eachother and getting better and better.

First Tooth

Paige got her first tooth last week. She has a tooth on the bottom now. She is also quite the blabber mouth lately. She has something to say but all we can make out of it so far is "mama."

Play Time

The girls are so good with their sister. I have to wait until they get home some days when Paige needs me too much to get anything done in the house. They are very entertaining to her and they can make her giggle all day.

Almost Spring

The weather is already getting nice in Bakersfield. Here is Paige for the first time sitting on the grass in our front yard. The kids love spending time outside. They are busy with all the kids in the neighborhood riding bikes and skooters whenever they can. They all still have training wheels but Savannah is getting closer to taking them off.

Savannah


Here is Savannah doing what she loves best. Eating apples and jumping on the trampoline are some of her favorites. She is also our big reader. Right now she is reading Priscilla by Coleen Copeland (200 pages!). She is doing well in second grade and she has so many friends. She is such a big help with her sister Paige. She loves playing with her and giving her loves.
