Lauren turned 21 months this week. The above picture is of her watching "A Bug's Life" and talking to the characters with one arm waving in the air. I'm sure she was giving good important advice! Her bossiness is really coming through, at times. Uh-oh...
Monday was Art Class, of course. Duncan has started preschool MWF, so he is missing out on Art Class but we have a new addition to our group. Olivia! Olivia and Lauren were born on the same day at the same hospital...crazy, huh!! And we've never met!
During Lauren's Tuesday with Miss Heather, they went to feed the goats since Library time was cancelled.
Can't you tell she is loving it?!
"You silly goats...eat your bread!"
The "Lauren smile". So sweet to her mama...
Our dear friends Susie and Tony Koagel welcomed little David Alexander to their family on December 21, 2010. Baby David has two big sisters, Gabby and Fia, and they are all so, so, so sweet!
Well, Captain Susie--the prettiest Endodontist the US Army has ever seen-- is on maternity leave for a little while and she surprised us with a call the other day saying that she and David would be available for a little play date while she was visiting with her parents in Enterprise! So, we met half way and spent the majority of Wednesday at Gigi and Pop's house in Chipley meeting Baby David. 
For the most part, Lauren was just as happy to watch TV as to play or look at Baby David, but she did enjoy touching "baby"'s feet and legs. It's so hard to remember LEB as this little! And it was so much fun holding and snuggling with a newborn again!
We had lunch downtown and while David napped in his carrier. Lauren was a good little girl (as good as she could be...) and I enjoyed catching up with Susie so much. I wish we lived closer but their current stay at Ft. Benning is so much better than the other posts in El Paso, North Carolina, and Seattle!
Thank you, Susie, for meeting us in Chipley!!! I can't wait to cuddle with your little man again...hopefully soon!!!
The weather is starting to turn even though it's still cold so we decided to go out to the beach for a little 30 minute walk. Lauren wouldn't wear her coat, but rather wanted her scarf...and only her scarf. It wasn't too cold (and I figured that she probably needed practice for our upcoming Colorado trip) so we let her go without the coat.
The sunsets are just beautiful
Daddy's girl
"The Look Back"
Oh, makes my heart pitter patter. I hope I remember how sweet and special these kind of moments are when she's my age...
Ready for Church!
"Shopping" in Best Buy after church Sunday. She loves "Finding Nemo" and fish tanks...this TV display looked like the real thing. :-)
We were so glad to be able to catch up with you and Lauren during your busy week. We had a great time catching up and I will never forget that bread pudding! Yummy! I'll have to make a special trip to Chipley just for the bread pudding! You and Lauren make such great company and hopefully we'll be able to hang out more this summer. Those beach pictures are so inviting. Thanks for sharing and including us in your special family blog. I feel like a celebrity!
