Our Cuties

A fun Sunday afternoon activity

A few Sundays ago after church Josie decided to try something new with her tights. She was running around this way for quite a while. The best part was when she held her cup up to her mouth and tried to drink through them.

catching up

Here are a few pictures from the past few weeks that I hadn't gotten around to posting yet.

Go Avs!

That's right, we don't let our kids choose what nationality they want to be, we don't let them choose their own religion and we sure don't let them pick which hockey team they're going to root for. Josie, May 2006

Silas, October 2008

Week in review

On Tuesday Silas turned one month old. He's getting much more alert. He loves to look around and will turn his head to watch a person walk across the room.

Here is a picture of the "rock wall" that the girls are building on the patio. (I think they're cute.)

We also had our first snow this week. Josie was so excited when she saw it. She stood looking out the window and exclaiming such things as, "Mom, there's some on the rocks! It's on the porch and on the chairs and on the ground!" Thankfully I got to take her out for a little while. We didn't stay out long because the wind was very cold. The snow was gone by the end of the day though.

The Sincerest Form of Flattery

One evening before Silas was born, the girls put stuffed animals in their shirts and were running around saying, "I'm Aunt Lynnie" and "I have a baby in my tummy", etc.
Then, their babies came out!
A few weeks later, here's Josie rocking her "baby" while I was rocking my baby.

Silas and His Sis

UnBEElievably Cute

A certain spoiling grandparent was in town and brought these costumes for Josie and Charlotte. Poor Char was a little disappointed at first. I think she thought she was actually going to be able to fly once she got the costume on. They both settled for being thrown up in the air by adoring grandpas.

Welcome Home Silas!

Here are a couple close-ups of the little guy, and one of him in his car seat before we headed home tonight. What a handsome fellow!

Welcome Silas James!

Silas James Kueck was born at 9:39 mountain time on Sunday September 21, 2008. He weighed 7 lbs. 12 oz. and was 21 inches long. As you can see, his big sister already LOVES him!

Labor Day

Having just woken up from her nap, Charlotte looks longingly out the window to see what's happening.
Grandpa and Josie are making ice cream!

Charlotte joins the crew.
Mmmmmm! It was worth all their hard work.

Favorites

Josie LOVES dogs. Here she is with uncle Hans' dog Cara, whom she likes to pet and repeatedly say, "she's so cute" and "she's so fluffy."
Josie also adores her daddy. They're like best buds.

Threeeee Mooooore Weeeeeeeeeks!

Some of you have asked to see pictures of my growing belly. Here I am in all my enormousness. We're excited to meet our new little one!
