Lanny is 3 months old!

On the 7th, our sweet little Lan turned the big 3 months. Sigh. In so many ways it's like he has been here forever and in others it seems like he was just born yesterday. I know I will be saying those things for the rest of my life, but they are so bittersweet and true! He is about 13 pounds and I have no idea how long.
It seems as though the teething has begun...notice the hand chewing? Add a few cups of drool to that and there you have our daily reality :)
Moon loves laying right next to Lan, wherever he is.

Sometimes she even just crashes and gives him a break!
This is the extra carseat in the house. Moon loves playing in it and her new "game" is playing car. I think that Owen taught it to her.

A little comparison

Lanny at 13 weeks-ish (man I love that little baby smoochy cheek skin!!!)
Moon at 6 weeks-ish

I think that they look so much alike! I wish that I had all of the Moon pictures on my computer, so that I could find better ones, but this is something.

The Girls

Not the greatest pictures, but they are getting so big and flying around at each other. They are having some "free range" time everyday and go back inside after about 20 minutes on their own. Not too free spirited yet!

Multnomah Falls

Papa and the Moon took a totally lovely hike to the falls with some of P's co-workers this week. They returned home so happy and so tired. The pictures do all of the talking.

What a day.

We went over to Owen's for some painting and other fun. The kids were just getting into every mess possible, then to top it off, my car wouldn't start! So we invited ourselves to stay a little longer ;)
A bit of Burgerville later, this is what we have:
A grub sister, no pants, covered in paint and ketchup. and dirt.
The grub brother, warpainted around his eye, ketchup and dirt as well.

Isn't this cute??!!!

Such little lovies.

What's been going on around here. Again!

New trampoline. Leggy's a movin' as Adrienne says.

Moon playing with her dollhouse

Lanny in the carrier, on a walk with mama. Like his sunglasses?
This is where Landon is when all of these pictures of Moon are taken!

What is this child wearing????

SOCKS!!!
It has been over a year since she has worn any socks. I nearly cried. Patrick too. Parents are funny.

Tulips.
Moon picked some of my tulips, so I had to take her picture as a consequence ;)

Pretty dang cute.

Moon's papa shots

Now wonder this child doesn't listen to us. Look at what she sees!

Just a little photo shoot of these two cute kids.

I can really "see" Moon as a big girl now. Like, I have some idea of what she will look like in a few years.

I also have to point out that Lanny is wearing a super cute outfit that was our goddaughter Emma's. I love it so much and it makes me even happier that it was passed on from them and hopefully will be returned for when they decide to have another little one. We have had to buy him so little, thanks to the Melners, Dear Owie and other great mama friends. It's nice to reuse things and even nicer to not buy them!

Sweet pictures of the Moon's first haircut!

Before, waiting in Rudy's Barbershop (a hip little joint)
Final long hair picture!

A sweet audience member, not sure he was in for a haircut

The Twist

Very serious

Checking it out

I like it! Moon says she looks like a "little girl" and "Eloise"

Moon shots

She was outside, taking pictures of the road repair crew.

They were actually doing some work

But less than impressed with the cute little girl taking their pictures.

And for good measure :)
