Playtime

Just some fun photos of Teagan and her BFF Joshua playing outside in the evening.  Double trouble!

Teagan and her "shobel" (yeah, yeah, we all know it's a rake but my kid calls it a "shobel" and it's too darn cute!)

All (fake) smiles...

...then great big huge tears

Family

Teagan enjoyed a visit from cousin Greta (and of course Uncle Chris and Aunt Naomi (Omi) too)

Aunt Jenna read Teagan a book and played with her

One more...

These two photos capture the current essence of Teagan so well. Composition imperfect, but considering the subject is a crazy, wild, running, jumping, climbing toddler, not too shabby. Plus I have Mommy Goggles on as usual :) Canon 20D 35mm f2

Major catch-up

Dear Blog and all zero of its followers,

I am sorry I neglected you. Life is BUSY. That, and blogger is kind of a pain in my rear sometimes. No excuses though. Teagan is a busy girl these days, chatting up a storm and learning and growing every day. Her recent phrases include "wash your hands" and "don't tickle me" among a ton of other cute toddler-speak. Hard to believe she turns TWO next month! I don't have time for a blow by blow of what we have been up to these past two months so hopefully a few cute photographs of Teagan will satisfy you. I promise to try and update more frequently!

Sincerely,

Blog Slacker

Easter with Grandma and Grandpa George (and lamb cake!)

Weekend visit from cousin Greta (and Uncle Chris and Aunt Naomi) in mid-April. Here they are with Mayme.

Lots of playing outside in the nice spring weather - there is no place Teagan would rather be!

Wagon rides in the 'hood with Mom and Dad (ok, so this picture doesn't show a wagon...or the 'hood, but trust me, it was taken on a wagon ride...plus it's just CUTE)

Exploring outside - sticks, grass, bugs, worms, oh my!

Eating Mommy's lens cap (payback for the eleventy billion pictures I subject her to!)

That's all for now - more to come soon!

Misc. Update

Miscellaneous pictures from the last month or so. I have been really bad about updating the blog. I still need to post Christmas pictures. Or maybe that ship has sailed.

Making peanut butter brownies with Mom:

Silly girl:

Modeling new clothes from K&B (love the sweater!):

Teagan's Valentines gift - a doll (+stroller, highchair, crib, etc):

Baking Valentine's treats to share with friends at daycare:

I love how this captures the randomness of toddlers - carrying a collection of diapers and boots...huh?!??!!?

Sledding adventures - the fun!

Fun!!! The first one was taken yesterday, a little overcast. All of the rest today with the new and improved track. Last photo - gorgeous blue skies!

Sledding adventures - the hill!

Matt is so proud of his sledding track that he asked me to devote an entire blog post to showcasing it. I have to admit, it is pretty cool. And Teagan sure enjoys sledding down over and over and over until we drag her inside. It's a pretty big hill for a small fry like Teagan, but she safely coasts down thanks to the side walls! More pictures to follow of Teagan enjoying the ride! Whistler Sliding Track has nothin' on this.
