Babies, Babies and More Babies

Of my eight (nine including me) girlfriends from high school, three of us have little ones. Baker Elson (soon to be two), Beau (nearly 11 months), and Mia Penner (4 months). These pictures were taken a few months ago of the three of them. Too cute.

By the way, 3 more babies are on the way...Sarah, Lisa and Amy are all pregnant. Hooray for all the babies.

Who Needs Hands!

Beau loves to carry things around in his mouth even though his hands are free. Here's a few of his favorite items. Unfortunately I couldn't get him to stand still long enough for me to take a picture of him with his bear in his mouth. It's quite a sight to see.

9 & 10 Months




I haven't been the best mother, I forgot to take his 10 month pictures. Oops. Here are his 9 months pics and a little run down of what's been going on.

As of 9 months, he was still crawling around and starting to pull himself up on the furniture. Mama was still his favorite word and still no teeth.

As of 10 months, he started walking along the furniture and even standing on his own for a few seconds. Dada also became part of his vocabulary and still no teeth.

(sorry about his dirty face, he just finished eating)

Out to Dinner

Melissa, Grandma, Beau and I headed to Strings for a nice quiet dinner. After being seated, I realized I had forgotten Beau's pacifier. YIKES! Luckily he was easily entertained and was very well behaved throughout the entire meal.

Father's Day

We had a good Father's Day... took my dad out for brunch and then headed to Lodi to celebrate with Bob and the rest of the Kesterson's.

And Beau was sure to be on his best behavior for Daddy's first Father's Day.

Me Beau, You Jayne

Beau and I headed over to Sandy's house for a visit. Robyn and Jayne also stopped by to say hello. Beau was all over Jayne. He loves to give hugs and kisses.


We're Back

We're back in Oakdale, after a two month stay in Lodi. We're still in the process of unpacking, but we're getting close to the finish line. So many missed blog stories, I'm not sure where to begin. I guess I'll start with Jenny Williams' birthday party at The Elsons.

In early June we all got together to celebrate Jenny's 29th. Baker showed us her soccer ball and helped Beau swing, while Jenny and Jimmy play corn hole (is that the name of that game Amy?)
