Grandma Jean's Chairs are the Best!

Just trying the chairs out for size.


This is a much more comfortable way
to sit.

We love Grandpa Bill

Both Cousin Olive (just about 2 years) and Shay (9 months) enjoyed spending the holiday with Grandpa Bill.

Christmas with Cousin Taylor

Shay and cousin Taylor enjoyed their first christmas together. They were able to crawl or walk to whatever they wanted, and even played a little tug-of-war with toys.

Fun at Tracie's

Shay attends daycare 4 days a week at our provider Tracie's house. She seems to have a lot of fun, and we get to read about her days in her journal, the board at the house, and monthly newsletter. She has made a lot of friends, and is all smiles when we drop her off. Here are some pics of her in action at Tracie's.

Cousin Taylor

Taylor is becoming such a big girl! She is on the go now-- walking, walking and more walking! She also becoming a little talker-- saying "mama, dada, and pretty" or so I have heard!

Thanksgiving

We spent Thanksgiving day at Grandma Marvin's house-- along with Julie, Becky, Gregg and Olive. It was a very nice, relaxing day, with of course plenty of delicious food! On Friday Brett and Shay headed over to his dad's place, while I headed back to work.
