THE PLAY HOUSE!!!

Have we mentioned the play house at our new little apartment? This little house belongs to the little girl next door, Callie. Callie has kindly let Marin... well let me just say, move in! Marin is completely in LOVE with the play house. I mean what little girl would not be in love with this place. I took these photos of Marin before nap today while she was playing.

Multitasking--Marin can have complete conversations on her play phone with just about anyone. Sometimes in a different language too... we are not sure what language it is exactly but its not English.
Still on the phone. Getting ready to take the baby's for a walk.

Every hard working woman needs a nap!

What's been going on...Pictures!

This was taken right after Marin got her sling when we were still packing up our apartment... notice the mess all around her. Here she is showing me that she can still put a hat on.







This was Valentines day. Her Great grandma sent her this dress and she just loves it (because she loves anything with pockets or a hood on it, this dress has little front pockets)

FIRST BRADS!!!!



Another picture of her first brads! We think they are just so cute.









After living in an apartment, its amazing how the little things are such big deals to us. Like getting to go out in our yard and paint and then use the hose to clean up the mess.


Marin and Choc... a.k.a Chocolate. What a great name for a dog. Marin just loves him. Our "cabin" is on the left.



One night Marin was carrying this baby around in this box for a while and before bed she informed us that this was baby Jesus. So in case you all are wondering, Jesus lives at our house in this box. We have tried to get her to call the baby something like Jessie, but she insists on calling this baby Jesus... and carrying her around in the box.








Don't worry its not lit.











A little Sunday afternoon hike. Notice the alligators on the water below. OK more soon. Sorry this is so short.

Catching Up

OK a lot has been going on in our lives these days. And I wrote about most of it in my other blog here at Thoughtful Parenting. Please feel free to jump on over there to check it out. Also while this post is short I wanted to say that we have temporally lost our camera-to-computer-wire. So we cannot put any new pictures on our blog at this time. Which I am dying to do so that we can put some fun new pictures of our new place on here. So as soon as we get that little problem taken care of we will begin the process of adding some new pictures and updating our site.

Baby Wearing

For all of you who knew how much we wore Marin, and sometimes still do I thought you would enjoy seeing her using a snow-neck-gator (for those of you who live in Florida and don't know what a neck gator is, its like fitted scarf) as a baby sling.




"Hmmm does my baby need to wear cloths? Oh probably not considering I'm not wearing any pants!"














"Lets go outside for a walk baby"














Book and wash cloth in hand. She must be up to something fishy... look at those eyes, you can tell she is.











Here she is sleeping her day away with daddy in
Ergo. She just loved being in her slings.
