When Dad’s away…

…Mom with camera will play! While J coaches his soccer play-off game, L has fun capturing some of our little lady’s fabulous faces. Let’s just say her eyes speak louder than her lips. Hasn’t quite figured out that the camera lens means “Smile!”

      

5 Months!

We can’t believe our peanut is already 5 months old. We are loving this stage of development as she coos, squeals, grabs rattles and tosses them on the floor, takes interest in Telly, and oh so much more. Can’t wait to continue watching her precious personality blossom.

 

            

Wedding Bells in Baltimore

Our cousin Mandy celebrated her wedding this past week. What a beautiful, glowing bride! Lia and Ella were both champs on the plane and socialized the night away with the best of them. Congrats Mandy and Sam! Sending our love from CO.

                                      

1st Rice Cereal: One Messy Adventure

Now 4 months old, Lia is experiencing the joy of “semi-solid” foods. Here is a glimpse into her rice cereal debut. Her audience (J and I) truly enjoyed the show. She’s already stealing the spoon from our hands and demonstrating her little independent spirit!

Big Girl Bites…Pictures say it all!

Welcome to the Hotel Colorado

Here are some snapshots to capture our weekend in Glenwood celebrating Mary’s birthday. Enjoy!

   

Are you ready for some Football?

Two things that Lia will definitely be a fan of…Skiing and the Broncos! This summer we had the opportunity to observe Bronco’s pre-season training camp, and Lia seemed to really engage.

Pep talk: “Lia, are you ready to watch some football?”

Definitely paying attention right?!

Maybe sitting upright will get her to focus on the action?

Or being in the arms of a player?

Looks like we can count on her sleeping through the games as to not interrupt our football passion. :)

Maybe next year she’ll want to watch and cheer. For now she can look cute in her Bronco’s onesie! We are ready for some football. Can’t wait for the first tailgate.

Dedicated

And this we pray… 2 Timothy 3:15-17.

”From infancy you have known the holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. ¹⁶All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, ¹⁷so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.”

Last weekend we were able to dedicate Lia to the Lord. What a special day in our lives and in hers. My mom had saved the dress I was Christened in when I was her age. Thanks to all of you for helping to create another fabulous memory with family and friends.
