Here is Adam and Grandma watching the Mariners game. We Won! I think he really likes baseball.

Tillie and the Fish

Tillie is fascinated with the fish tank. I was hoping that she would add her funny sound effects to this video, but for some reason she was completely quiet this time. She also likes to climb up on the arm of the couch and see how far she can stretch to get as close to the fish as possible without falling. Now that she has started scratching at the glass we will be training her to just watch and not touch.

Safari Pooh is off to Florida

When Susan leaves for Florida on Sunday, Safari Pooh will be going along. Safari Pooh is Susan's travel bug that she will place in a cache in Florida while she is there visiting Tommy, Julie and Adam. It will be fun to track Pooh's progress online and see how long it takes him to return to Yakima.

Lemon Cakes

These Olive Oil Lemon Cakes are listed under our Recent Culinary Adventures on the left hand side of the page. We found the recipe in the Food Network Magazine, which I highly recommend for anyone who likes to try new recipes. We have made these cakes twice now, and both times they were a big hit.

If you like shrimp, you might also want to make Baked Shrimp Scampi from the Barefoot Contessa. We made this last night for dinner and it is just as good, if not better, than any Shrimp Scampi I have had at a restaurant.

Watching Susan go to Work

Tillie is big enough to jump up onto the back of the couch so she has joined Toby every morning to watch Susan back out of the garage and head off to work. Toby has been doing this every day since we moved in last year.

Luke & Adam

Here's Luke trying to decide how he feels about Adam being in "his" house.

Sitting & Sleeping

Julie and Tommy have this picture on their blog. It was so cute, I put it on our page so that all of our friends could see it. Tommy is holding Adam while watching Monday Night Football.

While lying on his stomach, Adam picked his head up and looked around and he is only five days old!

Julie & Tommy with Adam

These are our first pictures of Julie and Tommy with Adam while they were still in the hospital.

If we don't get a picture of all three of them together before Susan goes to Florida, she can take one while she is visiting.

Tillie is Growing Up

This picture of Tillie was taken on the ferry the day we brought her home - Sunday, August 2.

I took this picture Saturday night. She has grown so much and, as you can see in this picture, she is beginning to listen to instructions from her Mama.

The helium balloon Susan got for her birthday started slowly sinking over the weekend and it wasn't too long before Tillie spotted it in the corner and decided it looked like the perfect toy. It was so funny watching her pull on the strings and see the expression on her face when the balloon "attacked" her head. She is so funny!

Home from the Hospital

Dad, Mom and Adam are home from the hospital. We get to see a little more of him in every picture. Adam was born too big to wear any of the cute newborn outfits that he got at numerous baby showers. He is already wearing clothes for 3-month old babies.
