Siting of the elusive mystery baby


Anyone seen the baby? Well, I guess we should all just play the piano as loud as we can (although Jacob has been known to pull the cover on your hands if he wants you to stop).


Aha! The baby has emerged. Our first siting! And she is not happy because, where's the milk???



Aw, forget the milk. Cindy and Amy want to go to the park--baby or no baby. As long as someone brings along a sippee cup.


Amy struck the jackpot. She is actually trying to climb into the crib with little Rebecca so she can kiss the baby's head.



Can you blame Amy for wanting to kiss that cute little munchkin?

From the mailbox





Thanks for being such a supportive cousin, Micah.

(After getting Micah's letter, Sage decided to make Eliza a card and leave it in the mailbox... "since she never gets mail." : )

I think she can, I think she can...

Push, Danielle. Push.

Scanning

There are some perks to scanning the family journals. Such as being the first in many years to see these gems:

(Someone's disgracing the name of Wilson here with only one trophy.)

A belated thank you

Thanks for fun times in AZ, Krista and the Nielsens. Sorry for the late note.
P.S. Can we come back soon?

He was still hungry

While Becca went running one day in Vegas, Mom and I fed him some food. And he kept eating and eating! Or, in other words, "he was still hungry."


On Monday he ate one can of peanuts, but he was still hungry.

On Tuesday he ate two carrots. But he was still hungry.

On Wednesday he ate three string cheeses. But he was still hungry.

On Thursday he ate four apples. But he was still hungry.

On Friday he ate five chocolate cupcakes. But he was still hungry.
On Saturday he didn't fit into his Halloween costume! But he was still cute.

Marathon trip (and post)

We had a great trip to Las Vegas and Mesa last month, but I never got around to posting a few pictures.

One of the first events of the first hour of the first day of our first (of many) car trips was Eliza was banished to the back seat by herself. She happily licked that sucker for about an hour!
Here's another classic view. The middle seat was reserved for the babies, who did so well. (Not pictured: the back seat which doubled as a traveling bed for the most tired. It was awesome!)
When we got to Las Vegas, there was much rejoicing. One of the first items of business (after oohing at Danielle and Adam's new house) was hanging out in the crib.
Then we had to dress Micah up in a Halloween costume that was several sizes too small for him. Obviously. But doesn't he make an adorable pea pod?Mom gave each kid a squishy ball, which they loved.
Almost every kid took turns finding and sucking on Becca's pink toothbrush.
Awww. These two became good friends. And partners in crime.
I could not stop laughing at this cute hat of Micah's.
We went on a hike to Red Rocks.
The highlight for the kids were the cactuses and homemade lunchables.
Or trying to keep up with the big kids.
Then there were classic Wilson crafts: fruit loop necklaces and decorating Halloween cupcakes.
And since we hadn't eaten enough sweets, we had to celebrate Danielle's birthday with a Georgie ghost cake.
And by admiring Cindy's hair.
And the kids tried to introduce Micah to solids. I mean high fructose corn syrup solids. Ring pops, to be precise.
Here are the little monkeys.

Thanks for a great time, Danielle and Adam!

Fun at Williams

Amy loved her first time playing in the snow. She just had trouble standing up with all that puffy gear. If I didn't hold her arm, there would be an immediate face plant in the snow.



Nothing like a nice toasty bath after a good romp in the snow. Thanks for the fun, Williams!
