I just had to get a picture of this! Grandpa was not going to be out done by Harker.

Thanks again mom for driving me home! Brad's ears are better now. To the memories!

Harker's favorite part of visiting Aunt Betty and Uncle Ken's was the doggie door. He is lucky the dogs were willing to share as most of them were bigger than him!

Today our entire family joined the YM/YW for a combined activity day hike to Comet Falls in Ranier National Park--presumably on accounta' I'm the YM secretary. It was great to be back in the woods with Ray again as this was the first time she's come hiking with us this season. It was also Luke's first outing, and he performed like a champ, sleeping the entire time in his Snuggli.

I love this post! Perfect Westhoff wit. Dan is funny.

I love this picture of Luke with big brother and the wild red-headed jungle woman--particularly the jungle woman. With her mother focused on the new arrival, Emma has temporarily reverted to the state of nature.

Just a quick note to tell you all how enraptured I am with my latest little heart throb. He is beautiful and getting filled out and chubbier every day. Already his little bottom and legs are losing that "froggy butt" look and are starting to plump up and look infanty. He is a good natured baby and is never unhappy as long as there is a binky or breast nearby. He sleeps fairly well for someone who's only nine pounds big and seventeen days old. He is a wonder and I am truely a blessed woman. Tomorrow I will take some pictures of him and post them for your viewing pleasure.

I've been working too much. Sorry I haven't posted in a while.

Mom had three birthday cakes! This is the little one that Harker and I enjoyed as she was full from all the cake at work. Katie was on the phone with her screaming the "Happy Birthday" Song.

Addyson is growing so fast. This is what she looks like as of this week.

Today mom, the boys and I went into Springfield to have some fun at the biggest Bass Pro-Shop there ever was. Boy did we have a good time. Mom ran into a guy's fishing pole and almost lost an eye. It was so funny, I couldn't stop laughing! She didn't even know what was going on at first, she was just freaking out like a fish on the line trying to free herself. Harker also tried to get into the action by throwing an orange hunting hat into the turtle pond.

Dad is in Alabama now eating Tony's BBQ and helping out Aunt Audrey. Heads up-Mom's Birthday is the 9th!

Mom, Mathew, Katie and I went to a concert that was put on here at the fort for the Army crew. It was so cool as most of the people there were the Army trainies. It was held at the motor pool and most of us were sitting on the ground. Because they were in training they had to wear their BDUs so we stuck out to say the least. Matt thought it was funny that he was the guy with the longest hair.
