Spring Break!

Wow, as I was getting ready to post this, I saw our blog has one whole follower. I'm not sure whether I should be depressed, or thankful to that one person for bothering to follow my infrequent, lackluster blog....

Anyway, here are some pictures from the last month. A month ago yesterday, Greta started solid food:


She is now liking to eat, although she still has no teeth to help her out.



Though she's been crawling backward, she figured out how to move forward on Saturday. It's been fun, but I forgot how much trouble babies can get into when they crawl. The worst part is, Jude is another variable I hadn't thought about. Today he let the dogs tear up a toilet paper roll (a favorite spectator sport of his) and Greta ate some before I got it all cleaned up. Guess you don't need teeth for cardboard!

We had spring break last week. We went camping (pics below), and had a fun adventure. A.J. (Stevi's brother) and Alisa (Troy's sister) and Haddie (our neice) came along. I forgot Jude's entire suitcase because in his effort to help, he wheeled it away from the top of the stairs where it was waiting to be loaded in the car, and leaned it against the wall in his room. So tidy....Luckily there was a Walmart nearby where we camped.

Tent camping with a baby isn't easy, but we had fun. At least we had some quality snuggle time in my sleeping bag for two long nights....you don't really sleep anyway while camping, right?

Troy was sick the whole break, in fact he had a fever for about four days, and part of our camping trip. His birthday (St. Patty's day) was sad too...he didn't even eat his special birthday breakfast.

He's doing better now, just in time to go back to work =) Poor guy.

And to top it all off, Gonzaga lost to BYU. Hopefully summer break will be better for him...

A.J. and me at the top of our hike...

Best picture of 2011 so far....Haddie found a pair of Jude's new wal-mart underpants in the tent...they paired perfectly with her blue leggings for a fresh new spring (Wonder Woman) look.

Jude and Haddie sharing the one kids' chair.

Jude loved the blow-up kayak we borrowed from Opa. This was one of Troy's good moments...

Troy, Greta, Haddie and Alisa at the top of our hike. It was a major hike for the kids. You can tell...
