Giving us Our Lines

Lately, Theodore has been giving us a lot of information by giving us our lines. Example: at dinner, he is whiny and eventually starts a lame cry.
Theodore: Why are you crying? Are you tired? Yes.

Well, we certainly learned something there. Again, when driving back from the gym Theodore spontaneously asks me "are you tired? Yes. Want to get the bears. Want to go lie in your bed."

Lucy is a squeeler, a gigantic smiler, and is rolling all over the room. We can tell from the way she moves her knees and scootches her butt up that she might be trying to figure out crawling.

The Wedding Singers

Jon and I sang with the other Honors Choir Directors/Spouses at a wedding. We sounded awesome, and we looked just as good! See?

Thank You!

Theodore gives us our lines. One day he ran over to the couch and sat next to me and said, "I love you so much". Now, this is not his feeling, this is my line. So I say it. Often when Lucy is minding her own business with a toy, Theodore will round up all the pacifiers he can find and throws them at her feet (nearly missing her head) and says, "Thank you!".

Now, for a while when we get Theodore up from a nap or in the morning he will say, "you had a good nap." The problem is, we just took one side of his crib off to make it a BIG BOY transitional bed. He can get in and out. A few times he has crept downstairs unnoticed only to appear in the room saying "you had a good nap". "No, Theodore. You didn't. You didn't nap at all!"

Enchanted Forest

We are flying back to MN, but here is a picture of our favorite Salem adventure- Enchanted Forest! There is nothing like this anywhere, and Theodore loved it! Even Lucy found some baby entertainment in it.

By the way, Theodore has ceased using "rigret" and uses "music" now. It is sort of sad, actually.

Wedding in Oregon

Sara, Jon's sister, got married on Saturday. Siri was a bridesmaid! The wedding was beautiful, complete with bagpipers, kilts, string quartet, and Sara's vintage dress (her grandmother's 1944 wedding dress). Theodore wore a tartan vest and Lucy wore Sara's baptismal gown.

Theodore loves being with grammy and boppa, cousins galore, and plenty of aunts and uncles- not to mention Dunder Mifflin, the small fuzzy puppy. We are having a great time!
