OUT AND ABOUT

Grahamy is a MASTER hiker! He knows how to find the perfect walking stick and he is at home on walking trails and amongst nature in general. What can I say? It's in his blood!!!

Checking out the rapids on our way back to the car...

Jamie and his girlfriend Greta...

Sleepy, sneezy or just plain confused...

Greta is only two weeks older than Jamie, but check out the difference. He's still such a little peanut!!!

And here Jamie's "GIVE-THAT-BACK" expression!!! What a temperament this one has.

SOS!!! This was taken a few days ago and we already miss the days of Sedentary Baby!!! Grahamy is quickly learning about the importance of elevation, though I fear it won't be too much longer before even the toys on the coffee table will be fair game!

BABY TORTURE

Peek-a-boo! We're back from a fun weekend with Nana, Papa, Aunt Hannie and Gamps! We watched Aunt Hannie walk down the aisle (ha ha) in her good friend's wedding. We took several hikes in the rain-soaked woods. We played and played with Gamps! And, we celebrated Aunt Hannie's 25th birthday in style. Grahamy having too much fun for pictures!

Grahamy loves to walk around in Mommy's shoes!

Grahamy as "Team Leader!"

A Boy Scout in training!

A pretty view, an even prettier baby... So when looking at Mom, remember, we just hiked up a mountain in the rain!

What a duo!

One sleepy baby!!!

Jamie's "demon face" -- the result of a top tooth!
Grahamy is now a completely independent dresser -- though sometimes the results are somewhat backwards. :)

Daddy cuddles before he changes out of his work clothes!

SNOW DAY!!!

TEMPTATION

We were gleefully ringing in warm weather at the end of this past week, but today, we are bracing for a snow storm. We are all definitely ready for SPRING!

An all-too-common sight these days -- Roo on the prowl!
Shoe-less in February

Sweet baby Jamie

Grandma and Grandpa Mellon

8 months old!

Grandma and Grandpa Mellon came down for several days at the beginning of last week for a wonderful visit! I somehow failed to snap a single picture of Grandpa, but here are some random shots of Grandma and the boys. Grahamy spent much of the visit on the couch recovering from a stomach bug, but he still managed to have lots of fun!

Resting

Aunt Missy even came for a day!

Just playing away!!!
