Cara Has Shamed Me

Well, I guess I should post something more substantial this week. I have been busy, as we had the first of our two Crusader football camps this weekend and I got quite the sunburn. At the same time, Cara participated in the MS Walk which she raised a substantial amount of cash for (North of $500). We also had a hectic weekend, as Saturday we went to Noah's 3rd birthday, a potluck going away for an Air Force mechanic from the dog park that is going to Afghanistan and then to (dad will cringe) the Social Distortion concert (I won a pair of tickets off of Freq 107 for this). I was also invited to a BBQ at a coworkers in Warren where I would have got to shoot guns & ride horses.

As for Teresa, she is very squeaky nowadays making lots of noise. She has also been paying attention to her reflection in the mirror and all in all is a pile of cuteness. Seeing as we got the camera last weekend in Steinbach, I have some pictures to post.

Teresa has been going with me to the dog park and LOVES watching the dogs run around as she giggles the whole time! The ladies there love her too, and my "I'm a widow" story is going to help with the whole 7 year itch thing... Cara & I will have been married 7 years in September and we have been dating now for almost exactly a decade (we agreed to first date in May for June 7, 1997). Teresa has also been out a lot more, and she got a bit of a burn on the MS Walk. Spring is a much better time to have kids around, as we can do more stuff.

Hmmm... What else is there to say? I have 5 weeks of teaching left, and then exams. This weekend holds much raking in store, and I am not looking forward to that. Cara says to mention that she takes after her auntie Pearl, kissing herself in the mirror and that she should be about 28 1/2 inches, and about a pound heavier, although we don’t know b/c the doctor won’t be seeing her until the end of June.

Now some pics...


Teresa's Wild Hair - Note the pudgy legs. So cute! BTW the hair is Myrna's fault. She bathed her, put her to bed then BANG! crazy hair.


Cara & Rowdy & Teresa at the Walk saying hi & Thanks!

Now some pics of Teresa giving... I mean playing with a full moon. Sarah found & bought Teresa a stuffed moon, and she enjoys munching on it!

Actual Stuff about Teresa

Hello all, Cara the Mom here. I noticed that there have been many videos, but not much info about Teresa, so I am here to quench the thirst of those who need to know (Sarah).

Teresa has been doing really well. At her last doctors appointment she weighed 17 pounds and was 27 1/2 inches long. She can now sit up on her own for 5 plus minutes at a time before she tries to launch herself in another direction. She is constantly eating her feet and has discovered pinching and playing with her belly fat is quite entertaining.

As for solid foods, she seems to prefer veggies over fruit, her favourites being sweet potato, peas, bananas and pears. She won't eat any meat purees, but I think that is due to the texture, and the fact they all smell like spam, ick!

In the miscillaneous category, watching dogs at the park makes her giggle, she really likes Ken's glasses and chews on anything she can get her hands on. She is also head over heels for Rowdy, but ever since she became miss grabby hands, he seems less than enthused. Rowdy is a very patient dog though, he takes all the abuse Teresa and her father dish out.

There you go. In one short post you are all up to date, but don't fret, Ken will be inundating you with more videos soon enough.

Baptism Video

Well, because of YouTube limitations I pared down the baptism video to under 10 minutes...

Well, we went over to Wally's for a fantastic Mexican themed dinner party on Saturday and Jeff was there with his Blackberry... He used the camera and got a cute picture.

Enjoy the results.

Over the next few days I will be posting some stuff from the Christmas video. As always Cara wants stuff of Teresa to be private. If you want to see them, and have not signed up I have ageneric username & password I can send to you...

For now a free & public video for all to see... I present:

A Blessed & Happy Easter To Everyone...

I hope that everyone had a great Easter weekend. Mine was busy, as I suffered with Jesus on Good Friday by marking labs. We then had 2 dinners in Steinbach the ast two nights, and one in Stonewall tomorrow...

I feel like a goose being forcefed in order to create a fine fois gras!

Teresa's New Shirt

Teresa finally fits her Input, Ouput shirt and as always it is amazingly cute!
