Fall Favorites

Fall is so beautiful! We have huge trees that line our street and it's so pretty when the leaves fall. Tate is loving being able to roam around and explore the yard. He is completely mesmerized by everything around him. It's fun to watch.

I'm thinking about finding out how these leaves taste. Is mom still watching? Weeeeeeeeee!

Thanks for the jack-o-latern, Grandma & Grandpa!!

Have you met Tate?

Tate has now been in our family for over a year, and it is amazing how much he has grown and changed in that amount of time. I'll quickly take you through this transformation in a few pictures.



September 6, 2006 - Tate is born!

Napping with daddy. What else is there to do when you're two weeks old?


Blessing day with Grandpa Egbert.


Happy Halloween- 2006! Where did everybody go?

Ready for a baseball game. Could anyone use a chubby short stop?

Yummo!

Swimming at Aunt Andrea's pool. Before the banning of all diapered children, just in case you were wondering.

Wicked smile. Tate's fangs were in for about a month before his front teeth. He was a little vampire.

Happy 1st Birthday!! Tate dove head first into his birthday cake. Messy, messy.

Family Pics

Yahoo! It worked. At least the text. I had to come over here to my in-law's to use their high speed so I can post pictures. Oh well. Gives me an excuse to visit them. Anyway. Here's the most recent pictures of our little family, as well as our bigger "Ralphs" family. Just so you know, Andrea and I picked out everyone's outfits. Aren't they cute?

Testing, testing, 1, 2, 3 . . .

Hey, everyone! We've spent the last few months looking at all of our family and friends' cute blogs. So we decided to try it out ourselves. However, our dial-up connecton makes me doubtful that we will be able to post anything. At least, not without a 24 hour wait. So we'll see if this works.
