playing catch-up

So this post is HUGE because I am putting pictures from most of January on here! We have already had a busy 2009 and thankfully, right now, everyone is well--well almost everyone--Zuzu has a hurt paw after boarding for the weekend while we were in Disney. We don't know what happened, but the vet looked at her today and said we'll watch her for a day or so and see if she improves--poor puppy! Anyway, on a much more important note, my best friend Jamie delivered a healthy boy today--James Norman--7 lbs, 3 oz! I CANNOT wait to see pictures of him! I will be visiting her in March in NY. Alrighty, here are the pictures you've been waiiting to see! Enjoy! Ty one morning hanging out in his pjs...

ready for the crawling race...

Lily one morning with her Hello Kitty umbrella and cinderella costume--a complete outfit if you ask me :)

the twins in their "baby pit" which they escape from many, many times a day!

this photo is out of order since we just went to Disney, but I goofed during the upload... this was the twins first visit to the Magic Kingdom and Epcot and they LOVED it!

at GG and Gran's house for "Christmas" with them around New Year's--Lily found a shower cap and couldn't resist!

then she convinced Gran and Ty to join in on the fun...

this is a good look for him...

a quick story about Ty--we happened to meet a little girl (Sara) and her family--Sara is a BEAUTIFUL little girl and is a tri-lateral amputee (both hands and her left foot) and we really enjoyed talking with her and her family. Sara is 6 and Ty was the first child she had ever met who was an amputee like her. Ty was also enamored with her and began showing off for her--it was so cute to see. They were both having a good time looking at one another and playing. A very cool divine appointment!

I think that just about does it for January--cheers!
