Bubbles

Meghan loves bubbles. Today we found some bubbles that were from a wedding I had gone to. When Kevin blew the first ones Meghan said, clear as day, "Bubble". She is really starting to pick up words now.

Try to ignore the mess in the picture. You would think moving would be neat and orderly. Not so much, the house is in chaos.

Lazy Sunday on the Lake

We spent Sunday hanging out at the lake with some friends. Meghan was a little unsure of the water at first but it wasn't long before she was splashing around.


Meghan got to drive the boat. Joe actually let her steer, only correcting her when we were going to hit something. Meghan loved it.

Pops!

We went to Pops today. I've written about it before. It is a Route 66 attraction that has a gas station, diner, and hundreds of kinds of bottled soda.

Two Sleeping Pictures

This one is from yesterday. Meghan woke up while I was getting ready so Kevin sat her in our bed. She laid down and went back to sleep.

I know this one is blurry. It's hard to take a picture when it is completely dark in a room. Meghan fell asleep on her own tonight. She asked to go into the crib. I left the room and she went to sleep.

Sick Baby

Meghan had a fever today so she stayed home with Daddy. They relaxed on the couch and cuddled.

Cranky Baby

Yes, I know, the picture is blurry. Meghan was upset because she couldn't take the kitty and the blanket into the bathtub with her.

Two Toddlers

Meghan and her friend Aundrea enjoyed playing in the car this evening. Trying to get two toddlers to look at the camera at the same time and get a clear picture is nearly impossible.

Too big for the bouncer?

While we were packing today we took the bouncer out to get to some other stuff. Meghan took it upon herself to bring it into the living room and lounge in it with her baby.

A Busy Saturday


This morning Kevin and I packed boxes while Meghan crawled in and through them.

Then we went to lunch at Mama Roja's. They have great Mexican food. Meghan indulged in the queso, eating it with a spoon.

Pondering her next move...

...falling asleep on Daddy.

And finally, climbing the boxes. I'm actually quite surprised she waited until dinner time to do this. Usually she is climbing everything all the time.

Do you think we need to mow the lawn?

I think we do. It's bad when the weeds are up to Meghan's belly.

How to Get a Toddler to Eat Part II

Last time Meghan used a giant fork to eat. This time she's using two forks. Try to ignore the half chewed food in her mouth.

Don't Interrupt the Video Game

Meghan says "Don't interrupt our video game mom". She was "helping" Kevin play golf by sneaking her finger up and onto the buttons.

Bubble Wrap

I see lots of bubble wrap in our future. That's right, we're moving. Kevin was promoted to a job in Dallas. He starts on June 1st. Now the rush is on. We need to pack, find a house, and most importantly find me a job.

Personal Day

I was supposed to spend my personal day cleaning the house. Instead I made this mess looking for something.

Great Grandparents

This is Meghan with her Great Gram Lorie and Great Grandad Meredith.

More Graduation Fun

Meghan and her friend Cynthia enjoyed climbing on the railing at the graduation luncheon this afternoon.

Scott's Graduation

This is Meghan with her Uncle Scott. Not the best quality picture but I love the playfulness of it.

Here is my cute little stinker playing around before Scott's graduation.

For Thursday

We were driving all night last night so this is actually the picture for Thursday.

Meghan was all ready to snooze in the car.

Sad Millie

Millie is sad and needing attention. She can always tell when someone is leaving. She tries to climb in the suitcases and meows a lot.

Bed Time!

Meghan is ready for bed in her pajamas and slippers.

The First Tornado of the Season

This is Meghan making sure the flashlight works in our tornado shelter, a.k.a. our laundry room.

Meghan and Kevin watching the weather. Trying to decide if we were going to get hit or not. We were lucky, we didn't get hit. The south side of the city wasn't so lucky.

Fun in the Farm

"What Mom? You mean I don't fit in the farm?"

At one point Meghan actually had her arms inside the top part of the farm. Of course once I got the camera she took them out.

Sliding Down Slides Part II



Here is Meghan sliding down the big slide. This one is her favorite but she needs help to get to it since it is so high up.

This is how Meghan's hair looks after she goes down the slide (and tries to climb back up it).

Sliding Down Slides Part I

This is Meghan sliding down the slide on her own at the park today. The first time we went to this park she loved the slides. The second time she wanted nothing to do with them. This time she was all about it. We spent most of our time climbing up to and then sliding down the slides.

18 Months Old!

Meghan is 18 months old today. These last 18 months have passed so quickly. My little baby is a toddler. She is learning new things every day. I'm still waiting for her to say "mama" though.

Try to ignore Meghan's red eye and Kevin's scary face in this picture. Meghan likes to play the "Crawling Game". She pulls you down to the floor and wants you to crawl around after her.

She especially likes it when you catch her. She laughs hysterically.

Growing Like a Weed

This dress fit Meghan last week. Talk about a growth spurt. Her funny smile is what she does now when I take the camera out. I ask her to smile and I get this face.

UNDER CONSTRUCTION

Bear with me as I change the look of the blog over the next week or so. Actually, I really hope it doesn't take that long. I have a new background and header designed but I am having trouble with the html coding to get them to post on blogger.

Here is a picture for today. Meghan took her purse and the bubbles and went walking in the backyard.

What does the bus say?

The bus says "Bee Bee" according to Meghan. She makes that funny face when she pushes the driver and he talks.

Happy Birthday to Me

Here's Meghan enjoying one of my Birthday cupcakes. She ate more of that than she did of her own birthday cake.

How do you tire out a toddler? Make her walk a mile, well not a whole mile. We went for a walk this evening and Meghan actually wore her sunglasses for most the time.

The Look

This is the look Meghan gives when she knows she shouldn't be doing something. She knows she's cute and thinks she can get away with anything.

Always Climbing

Even when she doesn't need to Meghan climbs on something. Tonight she was looking out the window at the bunnies and stood on the metal ledge of her high chair. She's getting way too creative as well. She moves things and finds things to climb on. There is no way to "baby proof" everything for her.
