Dog Walks and Rice Cereal



Davey and the dog both love to go on walks around Vernon. Here he is facing out in the carrier. We looked at backpack carriers last week and we may be purchasing one for fall camping. I just hope he starts to like his stroller soon. It is way too cool to be stuck in the house! We try our best to get out and walk each night. P.S...sorry that my son looks like Blossom in that picture. Josh flipped it up so he could see better.

Yesterday, my sister Shannon, her four kids, my parents, Davey, and I went down to Louisville to get pictures taken. I am hoping to scan them in so you can see them...well, actually all of you can have on if you want! I think I ended up getting about 60 pictures of him! Come on a sympathize with me moms...how could I chose from each of the sweet pictures. I told Josh that we are just going to have to start passing them out everywhere we go. Any time someone comments on our baby...they get a picture! And what about leaving them with our tips at restaurants? I thought of that one, too!
The place we went was AMAZING! Here is their site...they are called Portrait Innovations and they have locations everywhere. Listen to this set up...no setting fee...and for under $10 you get one pose ine every size imaginable. And since it is all digital, you instantly look at the proofs and choose which you want and then you leave with all your pictures. They are up front with all the prices and as you eliminate ones you don't want, you price goes down. Shannon told me the last time she got professional pictures of the kids it was over $600! And guess how much it was for over 60 pictures...only $90! That is almost as cheap as snapshot pictures! That is another reason we left with so many...Shannon convinced me it was a deal of a lifetime.
And so you also get what we tried out today...rice cereal. Davey actually eat a significant amount and was great at opening his mouth (as you see in the picture). Of course we ended with a mega-mess at the end, but I think we all had fun with it.

I LOVED the rice cereal...that meant longer sleep periods for us! :)

Oh no you did not just mention Blossom! Whoa! Hey, Claire's tear duct problem cleared up! (Fingers crossed it stays that way) Hope Davey's does soon! Have you tried massaging it lightly? I did that every once in a while; I don't know if that's what did it or not. She hated it of course.
