Teaching my children to question authority, except mine.

The race is on

January26

I went to get a refill on my coffee.  I left Tessa here:

I came back and found this:

I turned to say something to Sabrina and turned back around and found this:

Note the innocent look on her face.

She is wiggling and rolling her way around  – not crawling  yet but we are only days away.  What happened to my tiny, helpless infant?

Some other random photos from this weekend.

Sabrina is too busy for photos.

Proof my  kids have a momma (they both look so thrilled):

    Well I guess Congratulations are in order. I had no idea that you had received an engineering degree…WHAT is that intricate contraption that Tessa started in? It looks like a stuffed stroller. That thing is Bad Ass.

    Kids are beautiful. Tessa looks just like you and Miss Beana is getting BIG, BIG, BIG. She looks tall, granted it could be MY perspective. Love to all. And..GO STEELERS!!!!!!

    I love, love, love Sabrina’s hair!!! Reese is too busy for pics too—or he hides his face!!

    HUH, Tessa you are a child on a mission. Way to go!!

    Michelle, you look stunning, as usual!!

    She does look very innocent…or is it a poker face. Be grateful she was not on top of a shelf or something…

    Ha! I am impressed tha that you had the camera that accessible! So cute. I have a TERRIBLE time getting good pics of my little guy, too. Won’t stand still for a second!

    WOW, look at how long Sabrina’s hair is, so cute! Yeah isn’t it funny how one day they just take off on you out of nowhere! My 16 month old Ivan just now discovered running away from mommy when he’s got something he shouldn’t…not so innocent after all! hehe So I put you down as my favorite website that I read daily on http://thepioneerwoman.com/confessions/ comment#10785 just thought you should know =)

    Wow I love Sabrina’s hair too! It is so pretty!

    I think we had about five minutes between rolling across the room and crawling, FYI. You’d better watch out – you’re outnumbered!

    Geez, Tessa is quick! Good for her and thanks for the heads up, we are a month and a half behind you, so I always check with you what I should be looking for next!

    Did you get your hair cut? It looks great! And I didn’t doubt for one second that they had a momma – LOVE the updates!

    Gorgeous! I loved the play-by-play! And wow! Tessa sure has your lovely eyes!

  19. On January 27th, 2009 at 3:20 pm Heather Says:

    Great pics! Wow! She’s on the move!

  20. On January 27th, 2009 at 9:28 pm Cass Says:

    Lexi is on the move too. I’m glad and also really not.

  21. On January 31st, 2009 at 8:06 pm Stephanie Says:

    WOW! Tessa really is on-the-move. And I do love that innocent expression in the third photo. It’s as if she’s saying, “What? I’ve just been laying here the whole time.”
