Visit to Homer's House

Easter Sunday we visited Homer and took these adorable pictures of him!

Totally awesome quilt!

Ok -- haven't been posting in a while, we're getting pictures downloaded soon, I promise, but I did have this one sent to me. Made by Liza and Eddie and OH so COOL!

Congrats KQ!! 4-9-07

Congrats Kelly! We're all so proud of you!!
WeeLord wiggled (and giggled) with joy that you passed! You were great! and still are great! I hope everyone (all your students) call you Dr. Quinn hehehe! And that you're ready for O-H-I-O!

80 degrees, Cherry Blossoms, 4-3-07

Took a walk at lunchtime to take in cherry blossoms and lots of tourists! The blossoms were absolutely lovely and I have to wonder what all the rain and wind did to them overnight?!

Cribs, Ankle & Pickles 3-24-07

Ah, it's been a busy week! Started out with the crib put-together! Yeah!! Now we have a place for WeeLord to sleep, a stroller to move about in, and a car seat to go driving with! :-)


















Monday night -- Chris' ankle sprain, aren't the pictures lovely? They're from Thursday night...swelling is going down and he can now hobble around!



























Today, Saturday, Got Pickles? hehehe :-)

Visitors! 2-28 and 3-3

On Wednesday 2-28, Najam and Graydon met us in DC for dinner (supposed to be a Wizard's game too, but wouldn't you know it was sold-out -- all those Shaq fans buying up the tix).

Anyway, here are Chris, Graydon and Najam at CapCity, one of my fav restaurants...yes, b/c of the free pretzels! and awesome mustard dipping sauce!










Then Kate came to visit, for a totally fun weekend in Maryland! :-) We went to Brookside Gardens Nature Center, where she took this lovely picture of J wishing she were a turtle! hehehe...I was rooting for the TERPS people!











and Willa loved Kate's company this weekend, here we are at her favorite vantage point, the window to the world outside...I like to call it her bridal chamber, she always looks like a bride when she pokes her head out to see what you're cooking in the kitchen! Doesn't Kate look great!! :-)










And finally...kate returned home...and this lovely photo was taken shortly thereafter, dear sweet nicholas climbing without anything but he's own brut strength up onto the sink...so adorable eh?

Stroller-time! 3-8-07

Our stroller arrived! Thanks to g'ma and g'pa Coyle! :-)

Haven't figured out all the attachments yet...but we're working on it. And the dogs are just so interested in what this new item could be used for!

Sunday, February 25, 2007 -- SNOW

We got about five inches of snow today, from 9:30am - 2:30pm it snowed...absolutely lovely! Now they are calling for rain and freezing rain, sure to make the morning commute interesting!

ENJOY!! John/Shannon/Joan/Chris all went sledding and then built two snowpeople!
