Ellie & Pete

We went over to see the kids, yes, on a Tuesday

They have a path thru the wilderness past the new grass

A very pretty path 

They also have a trail up the street the goes about 

4 block to the elementary school.  I took Ellie and Pete on that trail too

Ellie walked and Pete was in this carrier.  When we got home

Ellie wanted to try the carrier out.  

Pete's 5 months old

Ellie and my Kindle

Smiler

Ellie and Pete visit Gram & Pa

Brooke brought the kids over the first Friday 

in June to give Chris some time to work on

his pictures for his upcoming art show

Pete's looking like he's ready to roll over

Didn't get many pics.  It was such a nice day

we were outside having too much fun to think about

taking a picture.  I do need to think of the camera a little sooner

Pete's Baptism

Our newest Catholic

Helen and Vince are Pete's Godparents along with Amy

Amy could come up for the special day tho.

Pete got to keep the shell Father is using and a cloth they

used to dry his head.  Helen might even have made it 

for the church to give.

And there he is all baptized

Cute romper

Cute siblings

Cutie Pie

And Cute Family with the new grass in the back ground

His romper

I bought Ellie a cross for her wall like this at

Saint Francis of Assisi Basilica in New Mexico

Do you think I could find another one anywhere?

No,  so I bought some blocks and made Pete one

Of course most of the blocks I needed were red so I

even had to paint some of them.

Another Weekend at Ellie & Pete's

First the kiddos

Not much change

Still cute smiles for the camera

Pete is now 4 months old

and Ellie is one month shy of 3 years old

It was a nice weekend to play in the water

but not to get in the water

This is Charlies pool, a little dirty on the bottom

but the waters clean

Ellie has a small sand tub we brought back

from the sand dunes in Oregon

She likes the sand wet I guess

Hard to get a serious picture of Pete

As soon as the camera comes out  he's all smiles

But I persevered, he's a cutie either way

Ellie found a huge maple leaf outside 

So we brought it in and put it under the paper

and colored over it

Cutie Pies

Pete's watching Ellie

Still looks like his Daddy

Ellie helping Mommy make biscuits for dinner

And she likes to smile for the camera too

Then the Yard

so you can see what we are over there for on the weekends

Before

This is April 2014 

After

June 2015

This was in March when they were putting the 

top soil on

and getting it all level

This is in May when the seed is planted

It's going to be beautiful

And it is!!
