Hats, Hats and more Hats

Dane has recently acquired a plethora of hats from both Nannie & Grandma Heidi. (Great Grammas think alike. ;) ) Just like anything with Dane, it did take awhile for him to appreciate the kind gifts, but now he can't get enough of them! He loves running around the house with them on his head. It's so cute. He definitely has his favorites though. The yellow construction hat and his personalized Mickey hat top the list!

Notice Daddy's shoes in the below picture. He is fascinated our shoes and stomps around all day in them.

Who's in there?

This picture is classic - He really does love this zebra hat!

This was Dan's Davy Crockett style hat when he was a little boy.

So, which one is your favorite?

Let's Dance

Dane loves to dance these days and he especially LOVES to dance to KT Tunstall's "Black Horse and the Cherry Tree" while we're driving in the car. You can see him signing more while he's waiting for the song to play. (Please excuse the commentary and the slight wait- he wouldn't perform on demand.)

The magic of Crayola!

Dane had his first experience with Crayola markers today and it was a HIT!

I love how serious he is in this picture. He's so intent on trying to figure out how to put the cap on - SO DADDY! :)

He was quite mesmerized with the new color of his hands.

And now for his masterpiece....DRUM ROLL.......

What do you think about July 29, 2009?

That's when little Phelps will be making his BIG debut! Due to the fact that I had a c-section with Dane, I already know that I'll have to have one with #2. It's so strange being able to plan exactly when your baby will arrive. I guess I won't be able to have any excuses on being ready.

Around town

Dan took some pictures around town recently and I just had to share.

Do we not live in the most beautiful area? As much as we complain about the rain, thankfully, we are often reminded of what a paradise we actually get to live in.

Spinning Fun

Who needs fancy toys?

Not me! One Huggies box = one happy little boy.
