A Climbing Daniel


This week we went to the doctor, all of us actually. Daniel went and he is 23 lbs and 31 inches tall. I went and we do indeed have a baby growing inside me. Jason also went but I don't remember what for so I guess it doesn't matter. Anyway, our pediatrician told me that Daniel is at the age where he will start to climb. Literally the second we walked through the door he started. He now tries to climb over the arms of the couch, on the coffee table, the chairs, the shoe rack, and his table and chairs. So far no casualties yet but I am sure eventually we will end up with broken stuff or a broken Daniel. We discovered today that the main reason for his climbing is that Daniel wishes for everything in the house to be used as a slide. I think that if he had his way half the house would be a playground while the other house would just be full of his drinks and snacks.

Mel! I'm so happy to hear from you! Wow, I can't believe your little guys is so big! Trit's Jackson is quite the climber as well, he makes me so nervous, but nothing phases him. And congrats on your "news"! Exciting! So happy for you! Hope your pregnancy goes well!

Whale Watching in San Francisco

My sister and her family came all the way from Idaho to visit us. Naturally we had to take them to the Golden Gate Bridge. It was a typical July day, foggy, freezing, windy and crowded. We battled people on bikes and with strollers and the wind to walk onto the bridge. We had just made it to the first tower when we noticed a whale watching tour boat and joked about how cool it would be if there was suddenly a whale that came out of the water. About ten seconds later, A WHALE CAME OUT OF THE WATER! It didn't ever do the complete National Geographic flip over or show it's tail, but there was a Humpback Whale feeding, and it kept coming up to eat. It was amazing. AMAZING. We spent almost 40 minutes watching the whale, possibly whales at the time. There was one in particular that came over, right below us the kids could all see it, and it was so close we could see the barnacles on the mouth, and it rolled and was putting on quite the show for us. It was an amazing sigh...

in case you have not heard

Baby Webb #3 is on the way. Here the baby is. We are going to try to be strong and not find out the sex at the ultra sound. So if you have an opinion, about the sex, feel free to share it. I am sure Jason will put a vote up. So far he wants names like "gunner" and "ruby." I told him Gunner might not go so well with Alice and Daniel, but who am I to stop an opinion? Oh wait. I was sick off and on for a few weeks but feel pretty good now. This is the baby at 10 weeks. We are about 13.5 weeks today. Due the end of February. I guess if we are lucky it could be a leap day baby. Daniel saw the baby in the ultra sound and was totally not surprised. His comment was "is that the baby I knew was growing in your tummy?" Alice was disturbed and cried and didn't eat for about two days. Then Daniel reminded me of a few months ago when he heard a voice from heaven telling him we needed another baby. He told me that "heavenly father w...

Easter

My mom and dad invited us all kids to Easter at their house. Most of us made it. They had a whole weekend of fun planned for the kids. Thanks to mom and Tiff. The kids made bunny ears and little ducks and bunnies. They decorated cookies and played with cousins. My kids had so much fun. Then we had a wonderful easter egg hunt in which we found all but one easter egg. Daniel of course tried to get all the eggs before the other kids even realized what was going on. Alice did pretty good collecting eggs. Abby and Steph looking at their goodies. This is Alice in her adorable new dress. Thanks Steph!
