Train Show

Last Sunday I had to work so Dan and Brian took Alma and Harper to the train show in Pullman. I hear it was a lot of fun. Turns out there was a whole room with wooden train track for the kiddos. Dan and Brian built an awesome train for Harper to play with and then they were joined by other kids. Afterwards they all went out to lunch at the Ale House. Gretta and I were sad not to make it! (But not really :)

Oh the Mess!

Alma is really starting to enjoy her solid food - but dinner time is a very messy time. Most of the time we just strip her down to her diaper and stick her in the tub right after dinner. I am not sure why I left this onesie on for dinner, but I am pretty sure it is ruined. I couldn't resist taking some pictures of the cuteness!

A Visit from Aunt Mardyne

This week we had a very special treat - my Aunt Mardyne came to our house for dinner! This was very exciting because nobody from my extended family has ever been up North to visit me. Well, she was actually in Lewiston for some meetings, but was able to visit us and it was awesome. Alma was very happy to see her, and sat and played with her all evening. Come again soon!

Alma waves hello to everybody out there in cyber space . . .

Daddy's Beard

Alma is at that stage where she loves to grab things - currently, she loves to grab Daddy's hair and beard. She is quite pleased with herself when she gets a good hold of it and Dan is pretty good about humoring her. It is very comical!

Alma's First Bike Ride

When we found out I was pregnant we immediately thought that we had to buy a bike trailer for our baby. Biking is a big part of our lives and we have just been waiting for Alma to get big enough to sit in the trailer. Today we had a bit of spring fever and decided it was time - so we made the big purchase and went for a ride. We didn't go very far, but Alma really seemed to enjoy it. She is going to be adventurous!

This weekend the Jarolimeks came over to meet us for Breakfast on Saturday. Breakfast turned into lunch and an entire afternoon of games and good times. Dan pulled out all of his trains for Harper - the electric one and the wooden ones, and we watched movies and played wii. Good times were had by all.
