Due to the fact that I was having camera battery issues, it has been two months since my last update of kid pics. Much has happened since then, Bella is walking and had her ears pierced, Justus is still playing his instruments faithfully and he is TALLER!

There are many pics this time, I hope you enjoy them!

Springtime B!

My handsome little guitar man!

Another response to Mommy's -- "Smile!"

Some of his happiest moments...

One of the few times I am actually able to get them in photo together. (They are always playing together, I just never seem to catch them with the camera.)

I just love this little look.

Sitting in her favorite chair, talking on the phone, already a girly girl.

Justus helped me make brownie cupcakes the other day... don't worry the spoon never went back in the bowl. :)
You can be sure he was not going to miss one single bit of chocolate!

The "yeah" face for him...
The "yeah" face for her...
Daddy with the babies... this will be a fun picture in a few months!

Justus was playing Superman with Daddy.

Bella smiling and reading!


Notice the wooden spoon is the bat?

With his ever innovative self, Justus has now made the spoon his hockey stick and the basketball his puck. (Just a random tidbit -- the first word Bella tried with strong effort to repeat was Basketball. She loves the basketball.)

Daddy and B.

The end.

The following five pictures are of Bella in response to me saying, "Smile!". This is her interpretation of smiling, thus every time she sees the camera light come on to take a pic of her, she is now giving her cute, little, silly faces! These were precious to me and I had to include them!

30th Birthday Celebration...

As part of my 30th birthday, Gary took me on a weekend getaway (adults only)to San Antonio. We were lucky enough to have our two friends,

Jose and Jaclyn join us for the trip.

We had a wonderful time and

it was a refreshing break!

Here are just a few of the pics from our trip...

Although this picture is blurry, I love it! The couple who took our picture were so nice, but horribly drunk. We figured that the picture looked clear to them when they took it. The husband shared an enlightening story with us about the Spanish revolutionary standing behind us (who is also not in focus).

This was our trolley trip. We got to see downtown San Antonio for one dollar, who could ask for more? Look at that smile on Gary's face! :)

Gary in the entertainment electric chair. Gary, Goodman number 3, and myself at the Alamo! This was Gary's first time to see it.

Jose and Jaclyn outside the Alamo, they are adorable!!!

This is part of the San Antonio Riverwalk and all the shops that surround it.

Jose & Jaclyn during our Marble Slab break.

Gary and I in front of the fountains at the Tower of America.

This is the view from the top of the tower, it is the second tallest building in the United States. We braved our way up even though the elevators had broken down twice in the week prior. The little dots on the top of the white areas are people.

This band was playing as we rode by in the riverboat.
Due to the fact that it was Spring Break weekend and St. Patrick's Day it was packed, but everyone was there to have a great time so it was absolutely enjoyable.
