Bathing in the sink!


I went to mom and dad's to pick up Teagan after work and mom was giving her a bath in the sink! it is actually quite perfect. you dont hurt your back bending over the tub and she can sit up and the sink has high sides so it will help support her if she were to slip a little. Not sure how long it will last, her legs are getting longer as we speak!

It Worked!

Well at least it worked on my computer. here is another video of Teagan trying to get Toby's ball. I tell ya, I think she is getting pretty darn close to doing it!!

Test

Okay, so here is my first attempt at uploading a video on You Tube and then posting it on my blog. Hopefully it works. I think it downloaded faster than directly loading it on here, so here we go...

Finally moving foreward!

Teagan is finally getting the hang of her walking. She could only go backwards in it, until recently. Now she moves pretty good on the kitchen floor. She moves slow, but can get all over the kitchen. She still isnt very good at navigating, but she is starting to get the idea.

Shopping without the carseat



We went to the grocery store today to get some food for the party on Saturday and I knew I wasnt going to have enough room in the cart with Teagan's carseat in it. So we decided to go without it and sit her in the front of the cart with her hand made cart cover. It fit perfectly. She did really well in there. I was a little scared she would fall over, but i just put my purse in her lap and that kept her content. She just pulled everything out of it as we were shopping (hopefully i didnt leave anything on the floor at Woodmans)!!

Visit from Aunt Andi and Uncle Michael

Michael feeding Teagan her last bottle for the night. He put her to bed for us while me and Andi went for a walk and Chris was working on the crown molding in the family room.




Andi was feeding Teagan cut up cantaloupe while the rest of us ate dinner quick. She really likes it.

My little skydiver!!

Grandma Renwick says this is Teagan's skydiving move!


This is what she is doing inbetween her sky dives...

Anniversary/Birthday Dinner

My Birthday Candle, HUGE!


Just about to fizzle out! Our 3rd anniversay dinner from mom and dad.


It was the neatest thing, we ate on this little boat. We had a seafood buffet and it was soooo good. I of course got my moneys worth!


It was a little hot and muggy inside the little boat (that was actually floating on water with a bunch of giant gold fish swimming around) so we sat outside on the outside part and had our dessert.

Teagan and Emery






We went to Kim and Ralphs for the Blackhawks game on Wednesday and Teagan and Emery were playing... Well Emery was playing while Teagan watched. Soon they will both be playing together i bet.

It was fun. Emery was taking a few steps. We were trying to get him to walk from person to person. While he wasnt walking he was either giving Teagan kisses or taking her bottle away. It was cute.

First Taste of Icecream!






You cant tell it by looking at the pictures, but Teagan really liked her first taste of vanilla ice cream. Andi and Michael bought me ice cream cake for my birthday (my favorite) and had us over for dinner on Monday (yes, i know we had a busy day). We were eating cake and Andi wanted to give some to Teagan. I told her only the vanilla, and she really liked it. She kept wanting more, opening her mouth like a little bird, but i didnt want her liking it too much at such a young age. Maybe we will get it for her first birthday...

Afternoon at the Park

We went for a walk with our neighbor Julie and her two kids (Logan and Lindsay). We met Jessi and Bry at the park and when we got there Teagan had fallen asleep and used her sun hat for some shade...


Bry was a little shy at first, but she came around and was full of hugs for Teagan!


Bry (who will be 3 in a few months) is so tall compared to Teagan. It will be fun when they get older, a few years wont make as much of a difference.

Teagan Meets Frog!




I was still gardening (this has all been the same day as visit with Gera) and we had this bag of dirt that had been opened and sitting outside for a few weeks. so i used it to fill in some spots around the mailbox. When i dumped it out there was a toad in there! I thought what better time than to introduce Teagan to her mom's favorite childhood animal! She was quite interested at first and almost squeezed him to death. i had to pry her hands off! then i dropped him and he landed right on her stomach. it was cute. It didnt really seem to faze Teagan. I think we may have a future frog catcher on our hands...

Teagan's Little (big) Guardian



After Teagans fun in the sun, i had to put her in the shade for a while. So i kept weeding and i stuck her in the only shade in the front yard i could find. Well I dont think toby liked her being so far away from me (the other side of the driveway) so he had to baby sit! He ran riht over there and layed down right after i left to start my gardening again. He stayed there until i was done doing what i was doing. Which he is not known for staying in one place when he is outside.

Weeding



Here is the video of Teagan weeding with me! She didnt even eat the grass. she was so determined, it was cute!

Picking Grass Just like Mommy




We decided to pull some weeds since it was such a nice day out. So I put Teagan in her bumbo and figured i would let her hang out until she got crabby. Well i was pulling grass and weeds out of the flower bed around the mailbox and i look over and i see teagan pulling the grass! how cute, she was mimicking me! she was actually pretty content for quite a while, i was surprised. I got a video too i will post it next!

Toby keeping Teagan company



So after we got back from visiting Heather and Gera, Teagan fell asleep. Since she is such a light sleeper now i decided to let her sleep in the car and i would just keep the doors open so she wouldnt get too hot. well when i let toby out to pee, he decided he didnt want to miss the opportunity to go for a car ride. Before i could stop him he got in and made himself comfortable. For those of you who do not know toby very well, he absolutely LOVES car rides!! he was in there for about 15 minutes, and of course woke Teagan up in the meanwhile. But that was fine. i got a few good pictures...

Visit with Gera



We went to visit Heather and Gera on Monday. It was wonderful out, so we decided to go for a walk and give Heather a chance to get outside. Gera is only 3.5 weeks old but I think they are going to be good friends! :)

Time with Grandma Feldmann on her Birthday


Grandma (great grandma to Teagan) turned 76 on Sunday. So we all went to visit for a bit and have a cook out. Teagan loved her strings on her shirt and here emergency beeper thing. She did good. It was cute to see grandma with her.

Getting close to crawling

The one-legged half crawl

Almost a pike, getting the bottom half of the body in the air.

The determined face! What a cutie!

Front half in the air.

Now she just has to figure out how to put it all together. I am sure it wont be long now.
