Bath Time

The kids loving taking baths together.

Best Cousins

Bethany and Jonas were having lots of fun with the camera the other day!

Dedication

Beautiful Abigail on her dedication day! My grandma made the gown she's wearing for my baptism - very special!



Abby with her Godmother, Aunt Mary! We're so thankful that she has such an awesome aunt - my brother sure knows how to pick them. Her Godfather, "Uncle" Pete, was needed back in Ohio, so couldn't make it up. Abby can't wait to meet him!!

Wishing for Spring

Photo Shoot

For some reason, Rebekah hasn't wanted to take pictures with Abigail the past couple of days, so pictures of the 2 of them have been pretty limited. Love these pictures though!

Science Museum

Bethany and Rebekah had a fun outing with Grandma and Papa to see Sesame Street at the Science Museum. Bethany says her favorite part was Big Bird. Rebekah, of course, went for the obstacle course!







To see tons of pictures of the outing, check out Jonas's blog!

Thompson Christmas

The cousins had lots of fun watching the train go around Grandma and Papa's tree! Just wait, by next Christmas there will be 3 more babies on this side of the family!

Train to North Pole

One of our Christmas activities this year was taking the kids on a Christmas train to the North Pole. They decked out in PJs for the trip, Polar Express style, and stocked up on popcorn. Everyone loved the train ride - even Rebekah!

Christmas Train

The kids love the Christmas train. It's a wonder it hasn't been broken yet!

Silliness

Ariel and her Sister

Bet you never would've guessed that Bethany was Ariel for Halloween this year. We got Rebekah the same costume, but Bethany insisted that she's "Ariel's sister." Bekah was not a fan of being a mermaid. Bethany, of course, LOVED it.

Pumpkin Carving

My girls actually got into the goop pumpkin carving this year! They had a blast, but strangely enough, we never took a picture of the final product.

Griffis Sculpture Park

It was our first time to Griffis Sculpture Park, and it was well worth it! It was a little muddy, which inspired the toddlers' theme of the day - "I don't know about this!", but we had so much fun exploring and just being outdoors. I love that the weather this week is so gorgeous!

Party Day

Happy birthday to Jonas!!! We had lots of fun "monkeying" around at your party! Curious George is way cooler than old dinosaurs!

The Falls!

The kids loved seeing Niagara Falls this week. They even took a ride on the Maid of the Mist! Bethany and Rebekah hung out in the middle of the boat, where they could stay nice and dry, but that didn't stop Bethany from loving it!

Zoo Day

Happy Birthday Daddy and Aunt Mary

Extended Family

One of Rebekah's Godfathers and his family made the long trip up to Buffalo to celebrate her birthday with her. It was a whirlwind weekend, and we squeezed as much fun out of it as we could. The kids got along great, and the adults had a late Saturday night! We loved having them up and can't wait for our next visit!

The Party

The party was awesome! The present opening was kind of crazy - the big kids opened most of Bekah's presents for her. She was ok with that because she got them once they were out of the packaging. She loved her cell phone from G.G.s Faye and Richard.

I'm so thankful for Rebekah. Her sweet, happy nature is a constant blessing in our house. We love hearing her babblings, and watching her think new things through. I love how she's already so much different than Bethany - such a unique personality to love!
