Claudia and her friend, Abby, outside the Indianapolis Children's Museum.
Claudia and Tripp in the dinosaur exhibit.
This was Tripp's first visit to the children's museum. I think he liked it. :-)
Abby and Claudia during their "fossil" dig.

It was so hot today, we needed a little water to cool us off.

Claudia likes to feed Tripp, which helps me out alot when I'm cooking. Such a good big sis.
Oh, those biter biscuits are so good, and sooooo messy!!!
Yes, Claudia is picking up Tripp. He doesn't seem to mind as long as she doesn't drop him. :-)
Just playin' around.

While we were in Madisonville last weekend, HC took apart Aunt Cindy's old playset and brought part of it back with us. This is what he created! It's awesome! He built it pretty much by himself and in only about 3 days. What a good daddy!

This was Claudia's last soccer game for the season. She'll start t-ball in a few weeks. She's still a little timid with the soccer ball. I'll let ya know how t-ball goes.
Good game, good game. :-)
The best part of playing soccer: the trophy!

Aunt Cindy got this water slide for Claudia. She loves it! We've had it up every day since we brought it home. It's a big hit with all the neighbors, too.



The three amigos modeling their stylish goggles. Aren't they funny!

We spent the weekend at Aunt Cindy's. Claudia was definitely not scared of the water this year. She jumped off the diving board about 100 times. Tripp had all the swimming he could handle!

Tripp is officially on the move. He's been crawling for about a week now. And he's getting faster every day! He's also pulling up to standing position. That just happened yesterday.
Tripp and his dog rope. YUCK!

Claudia and Tripp have been enjoying this nice weather we've had. Tripp will soon find out about the swimming pool!!!

We were having dinner tonight and I guess the little man just had all the excitement he could handle. He usually has to be rocked to sleep, but not this time. He just ate himself to sleep. :-)
Sleepy baby!!!

Claudia is afraid of strange dogs, much less horses. But last weekend she overcame her fears and actually sat on one of Papa Harry's horses! We were so proud of her. Maybe next time we visit she and Daddy will ride one.

Just had to include a cute picture of Tripp. He's such a doll baby!!!

For those of you that don't know, my little brother, Kendall, turned 16 this past weekend. This is a picture of him opening the keys to his car that HC and I gave him. He had no idea he was getting it.
Here's Kendall with his birthday present. It's my old Saturn, but it's new to him. He was very excited.

Daddy has a mighty big hat to fill, huh Tripp? Tripp's first bath in the kitchen sink. He seemed to like it ok. He's been splashing so much in the baby tub I thought it was time to graduate to the sink.

Happy Easter!!!
Claudia got up at 5:30 this morning and said the Easter Bunny came and left her some stuff. She made a line with pillows that she didn't want the Bunny to cross because she didn't want him close to her bed. Funny girl.
Thanks Easter Bunny!

Emily, Alyson, Claudia, and Abby before the big Doodlebops show in Nashville this past weekend. What a crew!!!
Claudia and Alyson patiently waiting for the show to start.
Emily, Alyson, Logan, Claudia, and Abby just hangin' out.

We go to Chick-Fil-A every Tuesday for family night and sometimes Claudia gets her face painted. This week she was a St. Patricks Day puppy dog!
Just a cute shot of the little man!

I realize it's far from Halloween, but a friend gave us this pumpkin outfit and we just had to try it on. What a cutie!!!

Another big snow in Indiana. Claudia and Daddy had fun playing, but they had to carve out a seat and take a rest!

HC and Tripp were baptised in February. He did so good, didn't cry at all. And neither did Tripp. :-)

Claudia went on her first ski trip yesterday at Perfect North Slopes. She did really good! She even got on the ski lift and went down a small slope, with Daddy's help of course.


Tripp all bundled up for the snow. Isn't he cute?
