Random Stuff from the Last Few Months

I'm finally catching up. Be prepared for lots of photos.

Here is Brianna in her 4 month pic. I haven't been very good at taking these since then :(

Daddy and Bri

Brianna loves to pull at the strings of the guitar. Her fingers get latched onto the strings most of the time, but when she does happen to strum she gets really excited.
Alyssa is always wanting to take pictures, but she is still figuring out the viewfinder. Jesse was playing his guitar when Alyssa took this one, he was originally standing, but after a couple of pictures of his kneecaps he found the right spot.

This is one of those time that Brianna just strummed. So excited!
Brianna's first tooth. Now she has 2 teeth and boy are those babies sharp!

At first Brianna didn't like the swing, I think she felt unstable and insecure. Now that she has figure out how to hang on she loves it.

Alyssa is constantly asking to swing. As you can see from the look on her face, she absolutely loves it. If you look closely you'll see the other thing she is always asking for, and that is band-aids.

No, this picture is not stretched out, Brianna is really that wide. Hefty baby. Wide load coming through!
Jesse commented today that our girls would look back at their childhood and only be able to remember mom, but would only have pictures of dad. Was he really that goofy?
No, she's not crawling, but this picture was so cute I had to put it in here. Instead of crawling she scoots around on her bum. She can get anywhere she wants that way.

Alyssa got new sunglasses, but Brianna thought they looked better on her!
Brianna the two things she is best at, eating and making a mess. She never did like baby food, so we've pretty much gone straight to table food. She eats a lot of canned beans, mixed vegetables and waffles!

Brianna in the swing again.

Here are my gardens. We have already eaten beans out of them and there is lettuce and cucumbers that are just about ready to be eaten.

This is one of the more complete rooms in the house now. We have had a lot of fun doing it. I made the comforters, valances and curtains and Jesse made the beds. We're still not quite finished, but it is getting there. And this is one of the reasons I never blog; it is too fun doing projects around the house :)

Here are my beans that we got out of the garden.

I am SO impressed that you and Jesse have created everything in that room! It looks so great! But then again, I'm not so surprised- you've always been great at sewing/doing projects. And I have to say Brianna is so so so cute! I love her chunky :) And Alyssa has some pretty, long, curly, blonde hair- adorable :) We miss you guys- keep up with the blogging!

Well, I'm with everyone else: your girls' room is so dang cute. I was so inspired by the valances, that I actually went out and bought the stuff to make some for my girls' windows this morning. Wish we were closer so you could oversee the project to make sure I do it right! :)

Looks like you guys have been having a lot of fun with your two adorable girls! Oh, and great job on their room!

Great job on the girls' room. Those things look great! Jeff and I aggree that we should never attempt such a thing ourselves. :)

You're garden also looks awesome. We're hoping to get one in ourselves at our new house; hopefully it is as fruitful as yours!
