Mount Olympus

Two weeks ago, Wyatt made his stage debut as a party goer in "Happy Birthday Zeus," his school play. I know that we are biased, but most of the play was pretty funny. And Wyatt loved being on the stage, big surprise!

Easter 2010

Here are some pictures from Easter. Papa Don and Nana Marilyn came down to visit. As you can see, Genevieve is getting bigger and Wyatt continues to be a ham (but not an Easter one). The last couple of pictures are from the zoo.

Too windy to have this kind of luck



The cousins went fishing this weekend and showed us how it's done.

A Few Pictures of Wyatt and Albuquerque, NM

Here are a few pictures of Wyatt--with paper boats a la Curious George and with a tie, a la Alex P. Keaton from "Family Ties." Last month, I went to an 18th-century conference in Albuquerque and played hookey for one day and took the train to nearby Santa Fe. I have included two pictures of the Santa Fe Museum, which I didn't get to visit :( But, Santa Fe was beautiful, as you can see from the blue skies. The last six pictures are as follows: the main square where the Native Americans sell their jewelry (to the left), a chapel based on St. Chapelle in Paris, the Church of San Miguel (with indigenous architecture) and an adobe house featuring beams that date to the 1260s. It is billed as the oldest house in the United States. The last two pictures were taken from the plane. As you can see, there was still a lot of snow, in addition to blue skies. I missed the family but enjoyed thinking and talking about the 18th century (yes, I know that I am a nerd:)

Visit to Vandalia 2010

Here are some awesome pictures that Aunt Jenn took while I was in Albuquerque almost two weeks ago. Thanks Jenn! Paul's parents took both kids to Illinois. Wyatt had a great time with his cousins, aunt, uncles & grandparents and Genevieve got a lot of wonderful attention too. In addition to the humans, Tiger the cat looks like he is enjoying Wyatt's train. The next posting will include my pictures from New Mexico.

Brother and Sister

Here are more pictures of Genevieve and Wyatt. At her last weigh-in yesterday, she was an ounce shy of 10 pounds! She is starting to look like a real baby and not a shriveled old man--

All Things Aquatic

Here are some new pictures--Genevieve with a new surfboard bib. Wyatt and Genevieve in the tub and Wyatt at his first swim lesson. His swim teacher is Jeff, who is a great guy. The only thing that Wyatt was (understandably) nervous about was jumping off the diving board--into the deep end (see last picture). Luckily, there was a lifeguard there to lower him down and to another one to catch him.
