Summer Time!

G-ma Troup also has a great truck for getting out and

getting things done. There is enough room for all!!!

Gma Troup had hundreds of great toads (in bucket) at her house.

It kind of made me have a little better idea what it

was like in Egypt!

Jace going under on his own!

Cousin Josh is great with babies. He loved

to "hold" Zac

We have been busy and not on the computer as usual! We have had a great summer. Mostly at home, but have saved our travels for the last couple of weeks!






Our week in Colorado was wonderful, and now we are getting ready for a week in Costa Rica!






Zac is on the move now, getting into stuff faster than I can clean them up!!






Here is a few pics for now and will try to get better ones later.

It Feels Like Summer!

A Special Tribute To Grandmas!

Granny and Zac March 08

There is nothing quite like a grandma. She always has a special way she loves and spoils. We lost our Granny Beek April 26, and we sure miss her.

It makes us even more thankful for all our Grandmas, Nanas, Grammies, Grannys, etc.!

Zac's growing faces!

3 days

The past 4 months have flown by. It is almost hard to remember what life

was like before this little guy came along. Big brother and sister still think that

he is the best. The day after we got back from Colorado (March 2), his first 2

teeth came through (poor mom!) and he started rolling from his back to his tummy.

This week he has figured out how to keep going and get across the floor! It seems

like there is always something to do!

2 months Summary in 10 sec. or less!

Cooking breakfast with Dad!

I don't know what is happening to time, but it is going soooo fast. We took a long weekend to Colorado the end of Feb. It was nice to get to see everyone and help celebrate Aunt Cathileen's retirement. Andy had to go to Indianapolis for a week mid March, so we all went with him. We didn't get to see much of him, but the kids and I had fun exploring Indy! Otherwise, we have just been hanging around KC, and trying to keep up with the daily routine.
