The Girls First Game with Mom and Dad!

Let me begin by apologizing to my brother for taking the girls to an Ohio State game for their first football game...I hope you will forgive me!

Today we took the girls to their first football game ever and I am not going to lie...I was a little nervous about it. Turns out that our seats could not have been more perfect! Top (and I mean top) water side corner of the stadium. So, consequently we had noone behind us. The day was great, and the weather held up too. It was a balmy high 60's and partly sunny...which is good weather for out this way! The girls were great and loved all the clapping, cheering, band, and noise. They were real troopers as you will see from the pics and videos! Grandpa Fred and Uncle Kris made it safe and sound minutes before the kickoff. We decided to have one girl wear Purple and Gold (for Dad's new school) and the other Scarlet and Grey ( for the home state!) Since Sydney wore OSU last year for the Michigan/OSU game, we thought she should wear OSU this time...so, Kendall was UW and Sydney was OSU. They were too cute (as always) and were a big hit with all the fans...from both sides. A big thanks to Grandpa Fred for coming here and taking us to the game. It was a blast...(and for those who don't already know - OSU 33 UW 14)

PS...first video below is for Papa and Nana
Oh...and Michigan finally won today ---->GO BLUE!

Uh-oh...Spaghetti-o's

This past weekend we all packed up and headed down to Portland so that I could look for an apartment. We stayed with Sarah, Paula, and Gil who were kind enough to offer us their place to stay while we were in town. We had a good visit and saw some friends. Here are some pics of us at the park.

Uh-Oh

One morning I awoke to Brandon and the girls playing and all I could here was Brandon saying "Uh Oh" Within a few minutes Kendall started saying it back and it has stuck ever since. She says it all the time and knows when to say it too. When she drops something it's..."Uh-oh" When she falls over it's "Uh-oh" When I lay her down to take a nap and she drops her Binkie it's "Uh-oh" coming from her room! In the car when she drops her Binkie over the side of her carseat (as in the picture above) it's "Uh-oh" Sydney has yet to even attempt to say it but the way I figure, Kendall says it enough for the both of them!

"Hey sis...watch out, your going to hit me!"

"Oh well..."

Playtime on the Deck

Sydney loves to play on the deck, but even more than that she loved to walk in and out of the sliding glass door and play peek-a-boo with her sister. They laugh at eachother as they stand on opposite side of the glass. Here is Sydney playing with me at the door. (I even manage to get into the pictures too!)
