Larson Lingo

Larson has really been talking up a storm lately. He is constantly chattering away and for the most part, is pretty easy to understand. He loves to tell Scout what to do. We have been working on learning our "Yes Sir" and "Yes Ma'am" which currently sound like "Yethsur" and "Meeum". I guess we still have some work to do.
Secily is getting very good at sitting up. She can sit without supporting herself with her arms.

Larson likes to sit next to her, and if I'm lucky, he will sit down next to her and get up without knocking her down.

Some of you may be wondering - Have you started potty training Larson yet? How is it going?




Not that well.

Pocket Talk

Larson has been really into sharks lately. He LOVES to look at pictures of sharks. He is mainly into the classic looking Great White Shark, and this one picture in particular. We look at it every day.

He has also just made the fantastic discovery of being able to put your hands in your pockets.....


He would put his hands in his pockets, and get so excited about it that he would start running, which, in turn, made his hands fall out of his pockets. But, then, much to his delight, he could start the whole process over again....and again.....and again.

Clowning Around

Secily has started sucking her thumb less, which I guess is a good thing - maybe she won't have to have braces after all - but she has started sucking on her bottom lip. Which makes her look like this:

Isn't that hilarious?

So funny!

This is how cute she is without the "bottom-lip-suck-clown-smile":
So sweet.

We did go to the cardiologist today, and he said that the hole in her heart looks the same, but that he is not worried about it. So,that is good news. It is obviously not bothering her.....

January 15

It has been so long since I posted. I guess I had to wait awhile for something exciting to happen! We went to Houston last weekend to watch my brother-in-law Preston, and soon to be sister-in-law Katherine run in the Houston Marathon & half-marathon. It was very exciting to be at the race. Unfortunately I did a terrible job of taking pictures over the weekend, but I do have one of the runners after they finished their races. Even after running a combined 39.2 miles they are smiling!! It was great spending time with them, and with Glenn & Linda.


We got back to Dallas on Sunday night and were greeted by icy trees! This is the one in our front yard. They look so pretty all covered in ice. It reminds me of home....only at home there would also be 4 feet of snow in our front yard!


Secily is growing, growing, growing. Here is a pic of her & her Daddy, beautiful in blue.We have Secily's next appointment with her cardiologist this Thursday morning. Any, and all prayers for her little heart are appreciated!



Larson is doing well, being his busy little self. Here he is wearing a pair of Ryan's socks. Perfect fit.

Sitting Pretty

Secily turns 6 months old tomorrow, and she has been practicing her 'sitting'. She does pretty well...


most of the time (she was on her way down here!)


Larson brought in the new year on a casual dinner date with his friend Lauren,


And is opting for a new hairstyle in '07.
