My Girl

I took this picture the other day. Brooklyn said it was snowing.

Isn't she beautiful

Then Brooklyn says "and now we need to do take a picture like a ballerina."

Eric Au"gus"tus Liddell Alford

Some of you have been asking to see some pictures of Gus... so have I. I haven't got to meet my sweet little nephew and Cale's future trouble buddy. Here are some pictures Thomas sent me. Hope these will hold you over until I get more.

For all the Lonesome Dove fans... we now have Au"Gus"tus and "Cal"e


So sweet and peaceful

Upside down, boy you turn me...

This is one of Cale's many new things to do. He will just be playing and then do this, like he's about to do a foward roll. It's really funny when he's in this position and starts talking, hopefully I'll get it on tape.

Mom, Amber, Sarah, and Emily this move Cale does reminds me of Jazzercise. That's why I titled it what I did. "Upside down boy you turn me. Inside out and a round and round." You know you want to do the moves... and hold it right there! TERRIFIC!!!

I love this picture. His two front teeth are the cutest thing, I could just eat them!

Jazzercise is Life!

The last post got me in the spirit. Gotta love old school. If anyone has this Jazzercise video with these work outs on it please let me know.

Slidin Fun

Yesterday the kids and I went to the park, Brooklyn rode her bike and Cale enjoyed a ride in the stroller. It was a pretty good day to go, not to hot and in the summer at the park they sell snow cones, so that was a plus. :)

Love bug Cale

The whole time we were at the park Cale went up and down the slides... ALL BY HIMSELF! He's a monkey
Going up

He started off sliding down on his butt, but he found that he slid better when he went head first (Don't worry he didn't go fast, he was to hot and sweaty)

Coming down and turning around to do it all over again

Walking

Cale and Brook going up the little slide to get to the BIG slide

Up a BIG step

Finally to the top of the BIG slide (don't you just love that little tongue)

YEA!!!

He's not a baby anymore...

Cale took his first step a couple weeks ago and has gradually taken more. Now he's starting to walk more over crawling. Usually he pulls up on something to help him stand so he can start walking, but yesterday he was sitting and got to his knees and stood on his own! He's got some strong chubby legs. Well I finally caught him walking on video yesterday! Can't believe how big he is!

(Sorry that the video is to the side... so cock your head to the right)
