Uncle Mitch Get's Hitched!

August, 2008 - Uncle Mitch and Aunt Stacey (now it's official!) tie the knot in beautiful Winter Park, CO. Marlee got to see snow for the first time (yes, there was snow in August!), ride a chair lift to the wedding site and even went to a rodeo! 

Keeping warm with Zadie, Dad and Bubie.

This altitude sure makes me tired! Dad's hand makes a great pillow and I love this new sling.

The city folk on their way into the rodeo.

The cutest cowgirls at the rodeo!

Ride 'em cowgirl! 

All this ropin' and ridin' makes a cowgirl tired. Bubie's shoulder makes a great place to nap.

A beautiful view with Mom and Dad.

After a long day on the range, it's time for a good bath.

All these wedding activities sure can wear a girl out.

Uncle Mitch taking time out to give Marlee some breakfast. Just a tip, it definitely helps to watch and make sure the spoon actually goes into the mouth. I learned that the hard way. (See previous post)

Marlee and cousin Noah chillin' with the Bubies.

Why Dad Shouldn't Feed The Baby!

This is just a small sample of where I started when it was my turn to feed Marlee. She's eating more foods by this time: carrots, peas, sweat potatoes, etc. By the looks of it, I think this day was carrots!

I've got a strange feeling about this!

Um, Dad, I think you're doing it wrong. The food's supposed to go in my mouth.

Check please!!

Random

These are just some random shots from the end of July.

Definitely a little "triple threat"!

Check out my cool slippers!

Totally partied too hard with pig and frog!

What are you lookin' at?

Off To Denver

We went out to Denver in July for Cyd's high school reunion. Marlee had a great flight and enjoyed her time with Bubie, Zadie, Uncle Rosie and (soon to be) Aunt Stacey. 

All this traveling makes me exhausted!

Play time with Uncle Rosie and Zadie.

Attack of the drooling baby!

Time to go home. Snuggle time with Puppy.

Solid Foods

It's finally time for solid food. Started with some delicious and flavorful rice cereal mixed with milk. Yum! 

Not so sure about this! What's this thing being shoved in my mouth? This doesn't look like my foot!

Everything tastes better when eaten with your fingers.

This is a big bite, Mom! What's the deal with holding my hands down? Don't you know everything tastes better with your fingers?

Now what are you feeding me?

I've got to eat more of this stuff?

It's All About the Feet!

Marlee has now found her feet and spends most of the time eating them! Yummy!!

Working with Mom makes me hungry! Time for a foot break!

I'm pretty sure if I try hard enough I can get all five toes in!

Not sure what this pose is. 

Seems to like the right foot the best.
