Memorial Weekend BBQ

Anna, Caroline, Erica, Lane and Brynne enjoying the first weekend of summer. ISU girls notice the dress...thought it was appropriate since most people there had some link to the alma mater

The twins and Brynne, the future BFF Club

Watching an intense game of washers

Cereal Killer

First ever bite

Brynne hit the four-month mark in May, and has added cereal to her dining options. We figured taht since she's had rice cereal mixed in with her formula that she'd take the more solid version right away....WRONG!

Not impressed by her first taste of solid rice cereal

Or any other attempts that night

Or the following night, even when Grandma tried to bribe her with ice cream!

Rog tried, I tried and even Grandma when she visited, but still not a big fan. After about a week or so or fighting, she finally really enjoys it! We're still not terribly clean when we eat, but that will surely come later.

Tahney's Wedding

Must say I look quite Amazon-ish next to Tahney and Fanchon

Since I very rarily have time to actually post anything of substance these days, a ton has gone on since my last real post. Like Tahney and Brad's wedding over a month ago on April 18!

We missed the ceremony since we had a few things to do in STL that morning but made it to the reception. Not that I've ver been to a bad reception, but there wer several interesting/memorable moments at this one "). Rog made friends with the DJ when the guy wouldn't play a song for us. The guy played some Garth Brooks or something retarded and headed out for a second...sooo Rog hops behind the table and plays DJ for a bit. Went over well with the crowd but not so much with the DJ.

Yeah... I'm with the DJ

Aside from the occasion at hand, the weekend also marked the first time we Brynne spent the night with her grandparents. And, we're pleased to report that they all survived! We crashed at Heidi's house. The girl needs to learn that even though you're in Mexico, if someone is staying at your place, you MUST have junk food and liqour!

Our next wedding: Jeff and Fanchon

Three Month Pictures

Here are some of the photos taken of Brynne in her Easter attire at her three-month shoot a few weeks ago...

She wasn't in the greatest mood for the majority of it, until some singing and dancing took place in the studio to lighten the mood a bit.

May Day May Day!!

My camera was missing in action for about two weeks, hence no posts! It was recovered earlier in the week, so we should have some new stuff up shortly. For now here are a few I took with the trusty, rusty BlackBerry.

Summer's just around the corner, it hit 90 twice last weekened and the seniors finished classes yesterday ... crazy.

Chillin in the Bumbo, watching the Cardinals.

Action shot, flailing arms and legs, trying to rip down her favorite toy on the playmat - which is naturally the redbird! Notice the shirt, too :).
