Steamboat Springs

Ed and I were able to get away to Steamboat Springs for a long weekend. We hiked on Saturday and Sunday and floated down the Yampa River or soaked in the hottub. It was so nice to recharge the batteries!

Very excited about potty training!

Time seems to fly by!

I just realized that It's been over month since I posted. I was getting so good about it! I do take a lot of pictures, but it can be difficult to get her to stand/sit still long enough to get the camera and take a pic! She now goes to "school" 4 days a week, and is loving her new classroom that's filled with boys! (One of Reese's previous teachers said that she mostly played with boys because the girls couldn't keep up with her). D'ann has her hands full.


Oh, the tears. They are abundant and frequent. I couldn't resist this pic :)


Reese LOVES chasing bubbles.


OK, so we are potty training, and Reese is really getting the hang of it. After going on the potty, she went outside because Bailey was barking and became fascinated with the wind chime. She did manage to keep her socks on!


Praying she doesn't step in any dog s**t...


Daddy's home from work!


We can't get over how beautiful she is. This is her "seven-mile" stare before bed time.

Reese is 2!

We can't believe it! Reese turned 2 last week. We had a family party on Saturday with Kathy and Casey, as well as Heather's sister, Stephanie, from Houston.

It was a little chilly in the morning, but the sun eventually came out.

Cake!

Adorable. Where did our baby go?

March snow

Our most recent storm left a foot of snow. Luckily, it happened on my day off. Reese likes to play (I mean, eat) the snow. After the sun came out, she was fascinated by all the water.

Such a good worker...


Isn't she beautiful?


Our fireball!

Philly, here we come!

We survived our first airplane trip with Reese. The three of us when to Philadelphia for Hannah's Bat Mitzvah. Reese was a trooper, and thankfully her "terrible two's" did not rear their ugly head too often. All clean in the hotel...
