New Recipes...

So I am in need of some new recipes. Anyone have any new favorites? I can tell it's time for something new when Drew grabs for a bowl of cereal instead of what I made for dinner... even when he usually loves what I made... he just gets tired of things so fast! Dinner ones are the most needed but I will take any!

You can email them to me too... cnrnoelle@hotmail.com.

Thanks all!

Baby # 3... is on it's way!

"Guess what? .... Our mom has another baby in her Tummy!"

We couldn't hardly believe when we discovered the news. But we are so excited! We thought Danny was maybe a one time deal so we never took any kind preventatives after he was born. And yeah! I am officially in my second trimester and due July 27th.

Ty is a Sunbeam!

His first day and he was so proud. This group that just came in is so full of personality... I feel kinda sorry for his teacher... but she is going to be fully entertained and will have so many stories to tell!

Once there was a Snowman

Todays activities... we called Dad out to see our snowman and he had to go and make one twice as big! Ty is still so proud of our wii one... and has checked the window like 100 times to make sure they haven't melted.

Danny's Walking! It's so cute.

So last week Danny started walking and is so ecstatic about it. He gets so excited and then looks at you for praise. I love this stage of walking where they just look like they are going to fall over all the time... and half the time they do. ... and they would so much rather crawl cause it's so much faster... but they feel so awesome and proud when they walk. He is pretty cute!

Happy 1st Birthday Danny Boy!

Happy 1st Birthday baby boy Danny!

Can't believe it has been a year. Danny is still a little sweetheart/ destroyer of our house and I can't get enough of him.

A few facts:

He has 8 teeth

He walks around everything and stands on his own

He is a destroyer... or as Drew likes to call him a terrorist... because anything that is organized in our house he likes to tear is apart... ha ha ha

He is a mama's boy... but at the same time LOVES to get in on the wrestling action with dad and Ty

He loves york peppermint patties, bread, and yogurt

He loves to head up the stairs as soon as he realizes that someone forgot to put the gate up... and he looks around to see if anyone has noticed.

He says mama, baba, Ty Ty and a lot of sweet squeals and other baby noises.

He is happy almost all the time but can't sit still for more than 30 seconds.

He is the love of our lives!!

P.S. Thank you Sarah for taking the photos... that was fun!

Washington D.C. with Sylive-Anne

Us in front of the Washington Monument

Stopped for lunch

On the metro

So a few weeks ago I got to go to Washington D.C. / Virginia to visit my great friend Sylvie-Anne who just recently had her second little girl Noemie... so cute! Her husband Eliot is there for a few months in training as a Jag officer in the Marines... ya ... hard core.

I forgot to bring my camera charger so I ended up buying a disposable camera... ya old school.. so old school in fact that the film took 3 weeks to get developed! And the pictures are super grainy... I did all I could to touch up the color.

Danny go to come along with me while Ty stayed home with Drew. We spent time hanging out at home with the new babe but did take a day to go to federal square and the Marines Museum. Both were awesome and gave me a new found respect for our armed forces and a sense of pride to be an American. All the better, I loved taking Danny to all these sites! ... not that he will remember any of it :) The week was so fun with Sylvie... just as it always is!
