Marin wanted it but didn't like it...

Marin has been looking at food longingly over the past month and I finally gave her a little rice cereal today. After I saw her face I guess rice cereal with a tiny bit of peas was not what she was thinking about over this past month. I am going to try again in a few days, we will see if it gets better. As particular as she has been about eating up to this point I am prepared that she might have similar issues with other food.



Mom I am not sure about this food stuff



Mom I don't think I like this



Yah I am sure I really don't like this

Just some cute pictures


They both had their computers open and they were "working" on them. Symeon was typing letters he knows and Marin was mostly eating the mouse on her toy computer.



Someone gave me these bows for Marin's hair so I thought I would give them a try just to see. Gosh she is cute but she is not fond of the bow. She had it out in about 2 seconds.



Symeon on the other hand loved the bow and would have worn it as long as I let him. I find he likes anything Sissy has so for instance if I want to trim his finger nails all I have to do is put Marin on my lap and begin cutting her nails and he comes over showing me his finger nails so I will cut his as well.



Marin enjoying some lite reading on the couch.



Hanging out in their pajamas.

A nice walk

Our dear friend Rachel likes to take Symeon for walks and he loves to go anywhere Ms. Rachel will take him. He adores her so the other night when she stopped by to pick him up he was ready to go. He had a very short nap on this particular day so I think a nice walk wrapped in a warm blanket made sleep inevitable. Rachel said he managed to point to the small stream with a weak arm before he drifted off to sleep.

Fall Festival

We finally had a nice Saturday so we headed to a fall festival. It was a beautiful day. We went to this festival last year and it was weird to remember being there with Symeon as a baby and I would have been pregnant with Marin. My how a year has changed our family.


Milking a fake cow, Symeon wanted to drink the water which was just gross.


Symeon and I playing in the corn box.


Marin (5 months old) and I enjoying a beautiful fall day.



Symeon (8 months old) and I at the same festival last year. I think it is funny I am wearing almost the exact same thing a year later.



Symeon loved the Alpaca's


This was the best picture we could get of the two of them. They were both so busy we were lucky they both sat there for a few pictures.

Photo shoot

Getting a good picture of Symeon and Marin together can be a bit difficult. Here is one of our photo shoots, I think they are all cute because they show their personalities.







Enjoying the view

Symeon loves to look out our third floor window and watch for truck, buses, anything with a siren, and motorcycles. When I came home from work the other day I found them all enjoying the view.




Football - E-A-G-L-E-S

We are huge Eagles fans and Symeon is so cute in his Eagles hat, he loves wearing it.
