Happy Birthday

Today (August 29) is Kelly’s Birthday. I had a much, much longer version of what I thought appropriate to post today. I even proof read it. Then I decided to keep it short and simple. People don’t like it when the blog gets sad. And I don’t want to turn this into a writers forum, a sermon or a long post whose purpose might have been simply an attempt to make me feel better.

So Happy Birthday Brother. We miss you more than you ever would have imagined while you were here.

Practice Pics

Here is my first round of practice pics with my new camera. No captions, unedited. Remember, I'm a rookie.

The Danny

Tara calls Wilbur the Danny. Get it, (D)og N(anny).

For the record, Nanna Babs actually coined the term.

Lovin the Baby in the Mirror

Don't know what it is about that mirror...but boy does he love what he sees!!!

Look at me!

I guess he likes what he sees.

Family

I thought why not drop in some pre and non Olin family pics...so here you go. Remember I am still practicing. I'm trying to keep the pics even.

3 month highlights

This is my attempt at slideshows. If it works the blog will take on a whole new look.

Baseball

In the spirit of baseball season & our trip to Yankee Stadium over Labor Day here are some pics of Olin in one of his baseball outfits. His strike zone would small. Very small.

Fun days at the pool....

I'm resting. I've had a hard day. Please no pictures.

Summertime

I think this wet rag is supposed to keep me cool although it is like 120 degrees out here.


Ah, yes, that is a Hula Hut margarita. Like my shades?

I think he is throwing a gang sign here.

Not a big belly but a small shirt.

At the pool with Nanna Babs.

Another Photoshoot

I am very cute.

Check out the nice linen outfit. Yes, those are my initials on the breastplate.

Life is good.

Have you noticed that I have dimples?

I have grown bored of this. I am outta here.

After watching this, you'll be smiling. Olin loves laughing in the morning.
