Family Photos - March 2014


For no other reason, but to try out a new photographer, we dressed up on a Saturday morning and took some pictures with Chantel!  We couldn't be happier!  She is a sweetheart and such a fun person to work with!  Here are a few of the shots from the day!

Our little family...expanding by the day!

 What "Growing up Meyer" is all about....exploring!













 

Bird poop...sure, why not?!?!





A month that March*ed by!


Cuddles with my love bug NEVER get old and I doubt they ever will!  Our family was sick, sick, sick in March, so there were lots of G and mama cuddles (G and daddy cuddles too)!

Number one excited that he gets to go to Doggie Daycare for the day!  Yes, he's posing!

 Cuddling with his horsey at Grammy's!

Bath time fun!!!!

Just chilling in "his" chair....he seriously believes this is his spot and we will find him up here with a blanket or a book at random times!  Plus, during family time he goes here to just "hang".  We are so lucky that this little man is such a good boy!

Posing in Papa's slippers...he put them on ALL by himself!

Sick baby!


Sunshine out! Shades on! Ready to see what Spring is all about!



 
All smiles...seriously, this kiddo is happy 99.9% of the time!

Favorite morning past time (after looking out the window)...saying HELLO to his favorite buddy Griffin!  He is obsessed with the mirror and we constantly see him checking himself out when he passes one!

Playtime at Cousin Jilly's house!





 Who's cute buns are those?!?!?

March even brought a girl's brunch and spa day for me!!!  Picture of the mamas-to-be (again)!

Our little Good Luck Charm!  Happy St. Patrick's Day!  St. Patrick's Day has always been a special day in our family and this year was no exception!  It marked the 15th anniversary of my amazing Grandpa Rudy's passing.  He would have been so proud of the little man below!


 Pose for Grammy...not as easy as it once was!

Reading with Grandpa after work....there favorite spot (his lap) when he gets home as they usually rush over and pat his chair until he sits down to have some time with them!

At night, G loves to crawl into mama's side of the bed and pretend he is a BIG boy...he typically brings a book, a blankie and a buddy (Elmo, Chukar, Papa, ...)


This little piggy loves to eat everything....everything!  Grammy's wrap is no exception!  He usually will say MMMMMMM until you cave and give him a bite...come on, where are your manners?!?!  Guess we will need to work on those, someday!


 Dressed and ready to roll!

G got to celebrate his buddy Beckett's 2nd birthday....here go the boys, not once looking back at there mamas!

 Poser!

Watching for airplanes!

 These little munckins were obsessed!



It took a long time...but we finally have completed our front room and found the perfect rug to compliment it!  G wanted to help papa roll it out!

 We couldn't be happier!

More bathtime fun...this one cracks me up because Chukar is just hanging out while G plays and mama reads a book!  G could stay in there for days...and not even care if the water was freezing!

Sometimes mama needs just 15 minutes to shower....insert cartoon time!  He doesn't get it often at our house, so it's a treat...and he was a little angel!

Funny faces...loves blowing raspberries with his tongue...or just showing his tongue off!



Friday snuggles with GG!  After being sick most of March, GG had to stay away.  G was happy she was back to hang out finally!

Posing with his teddy bear aka Mama's teddy bear from when she was a baby!

Weekend adventure alert...the last weekend of March, we headed over to our friend Alex's cabin in Packwood for a little R&R!  We even got outside to enjoy a little walk!

 The boys!

Sunday afternoon, G helped Rich put together his new slide from Grandma & Grandpa Meyer!  He is so handy and inquisitive when it comes to building and helping!




Safety first!

The maiden voyage down the slide...tummy first!

The last day of March was not only Griffin's 17 month birthday, but a day that Rich and I had scheduled off over a month ago...with no plans, just to do something with the family!  When the tragedy of the 530 mudslide happened a little over a week ago, we knew this would be a great day for our family to help! 

G loaded up and ready to drop off supplies in Arlington...he is currently obsessed with is sunglasses and wears them sometimes right side up and sometimes upside down...

 G with all the gracious donations from friends and family!

A little detour on the way home to see the daffodils in Mt. Vernon...the tulips are only a few days away!


Final stop...the outlet malls to enjoy a little family shopping!

What a busy March we had and there is no sign of slowing down for April!  We have a trip to Meyer East planned, date nights booked, business anniversaries to celebrate, friends to see, Easter to host, turkey hunting for Rich and more!  Bring it out!  We can't wait for Spring!
