While the boys were away

In between naps & working, littlest and I went for a couple nice long walks....

And in honor of the Royal Wedding (yes we were up at 4am watching - not because I wanted to be up but because C wanted to eat)....Littlest is wearing her favorite shirt today....

The following video....is just cute, but it also shows how littlest has decided that screetching at the top of her lungs is a good thing....we call her our little Teradactyl.....

Super cool dude at the park (those are his glasses from a 3D movie we saw)

So crazy....B is into Star Wars these days. Forget about Toy Story 3, that is way too scary, but he's totally cool with all of the Star Wars movies. He and Sean have now watched all the Episodes 1-5, and are waiting to rewatch Return of the Jedi soon. This is the spaceship he set up to watch Empire Strikes Back.

Before B and Sean left for MT, B had a rare moment of getting both Teddy's - the dirty one is staying in WA and the one with socks was ready to head to the airport to go to MT.

We planted some trees in our yard last weekend and this was Brennan's "working guy" suit....

His smile these days...

Thumbs up for a job well done....

Chunky baby thighs....can't get much better.... My sweetie... Easter egg decorating - these were MONSTER easter eggs

You thought I was kidding - these really were MONSTER easter eggs...

You are my SUNSHINE!

She can go from stoic to absolute JOY with just a few notes of singing....how great is that smile!

This is now my favorite "trick" - although I still love the cooing too....

Some fun videos

Caelan's First "Words"....during our 4 mo. check-up, Dr. M asked us what our favorite Caelan "trick" is right now...and at the time, it was definitely these little coos.....

......now it is blowing raspberries.....

video to come shortly.

Its been a long time....

I have fallen out of "practice" on the blog, and for that I apologize. Below are some pictures from March 2011. Caelan is now 4 months old - so hard to believe how fast the time goes! Below is a picture of two days of milk that has been bagged and is ready for the freezer - getting back to work means getting the "pumping at work" routine figured out. Making this work is a huge sense of pride for me. Sean is a great partner for me too in making sure it works. We talk all day long about how much she's eaten and how much I'm pumping - and luckily, I'm still pumping a little bit more than she's eating. I usually pump 3 times during my work day and come home with 14-16oz of milk.

Below are just some pictures of Caelan. I was trying to capture her sitting up, but she's still trying to figure out how to do that exactly. These pictures were taken around her 4mo. birthday.

She's almost growing out of this outfit, so I wanted to take some pictures of it before it no longer fits her.

I'll load a couple of videos tomorrow.....having a hard time getting them to load.
