Smile Big


This is Megan's interpretation of "Smile Big!"

New Sink!

Our sink and faucet had seen better days, mostly the faucet. We decided to do it right and upgrade. We upgrade here and there so it won't be such a huge hit later on. Looks nice huh?

New Bathing Suit

Megan needed a new swimsuit. Her 2T one was getting a big snug! Blame it on mommy for being too lazy to air dry it! Hopefully this 4T will last through the summer!


Megan-in-the-Box

We were cooking breakfast in bed for Daddy and when I turned around, Megan had found a distraction. She seemed to fit perfectly in it. And of course, she's pretty cute!


Hi Mommy!


Fish Tank For Sale $50

This is a 12 gallon tank. Josh recently upgraded to a 30 gallon tank so we aren't in need of this one anymore! Let me know if you're interested.

First Slurpee!

While Josh was in Arkansas, Megan probably got more treats than she needed. Mostly because Mommy was trying to drown her loneliness - and what better way to do it than sweets? Yeah, yeah, I know I don't to start any bad habits. But how bad could a slurpee be? I think she got brain freeze cause she only had about 1/4 of it.

Picking Up Daddy

So, these pictures aren't that flattering but they show her shirt that she wore. I had it made online for pretty cheap. Everyone at the airport thought it was cute. I wanted to get their first glimpse of eachother on video but all I really got was the back of her waddling/running up to him for about 10 seconds. I'd put it on here but it's on old school video tape. Anyway, it was precious. She saw him and ran immediately - no hesitation. And Daddy brought a soldier bear back to her from Arkansas with her name on it and everything. I feel like I can't get enough of him now. I don't want him to go anywhere with out me/us!!

I suprised him when he got home with babysitters for Megan and an appointment for a couples massage. I got a GC for Christmas from Kathy and I got him one too at Massage Envy. For the price, we got a great massage! Thanks Kathy! And thanks Grandma and Grandpa for watching Megan for us!

Mother's Day

For Mother's Day we went to my parent's house. Kelly and Jon came into town on Friday so we were basically over there all weekend. Tami made a really great dinner for everyone on Sunday. As most of you all know, Megan's flirty-ness has started to run rampant. She could not get enough of Jon. This picture below shows her positioning herself just perfect so that she could see him sitting on the stairs. She was all about Jon!

and of course, Mommy and Megan!



While Daddy's away.....

I've been racking my brain on ways to entertain Megan while Josh is gone. It's not as easy to keep her home all day when he doesn't come home after work to help out! We had a busy day on Saturday. First we went to the World's Largest Yard Sale at the Washington County Fairgrounds. Nothing real exciting there except they did have a little 'petting zoo' a.k.a. goats inside field fencing. After that we went to the Hillsboro Farmer's Market. I started going last year and love it! They have all sorts of arts. crafts, food, plants, fresh fruit and veggies and lots of flowers. It's fun to be outside and walk around. Then we went to Coastal Farm and Ranch where for a few hours they were doing a kids planting event. Megan got to plant her own flowers in a pot and she gave them to Grandma for Mother's Day. Pretty cute. And this was all before noon.
Here are the pictures of the petting zoo. Megan loves all things furry.


Gabriel Patrick Lahr

I'm a little late in welcoming the newest baby to the world. Gabriel Patrick Lahr was born on May 1st. He's as healthy as can be and everyone is doing well.
Jaxon is being a good big brother!

We Miss Daddy!

Josh is in Arkansas for 2 weeks! He left last Sunday and will be back next Saturday. I think Megan has really been thrown off by his absence. Plus we've had to stay at my parents for a couple of days so that while I worked they could watch her. Thank goodness for Grandparents! I think they even got to see a bit of her 'not so cute' side, but I don't know if they'd admit it!




Such a big girl!

Megan LOVES to brush her teeth. She has a new giggle when she gets really excited and she does it every time I ask her if she wants to brush her teeth. Now when it's time to stop brushing her teeth, it's not such a joyful experience! You know her famous scream? Yeah usually right in my eardrum. She's getting better about it now. I have to do a 10-9-8.....countdown.
