Mother's Day!

Mother's Day

Since this was Mommy's first Mother's Day we wanted to do something really special. Daddy helped us pick out a great card and translated so Mommy would know how much we love her. Then we all drove out to Rocky Mountain National Park for our first real outing.


Mommy is very beautiful!
(even in her HUGE sunglasses)


It is bright and cold out, but the waterfall is nice and 
Daddy is keeping us warm in our hats and blankets.


Mommy and Daddy love us SOOOO much!


After that long 1/4 mile hike, we are exhausted.


Better hurry Daddy, there is a storm coming in.


An Elk! This animal is way bigger than the neighbor's dog.


Mommy watch out! There is a herd of Elk behind us!


They are getting closer, so its time to go. Bye

Busy First Month!

First Month

Our first month was very busy. We got to meet Grandma and Grandpa Vogts, Grandma and Grandpa Schneider, Aunt Emily, and Aunt Kristin, plus lots of Mommy and Daddy's friends. There are a lot of people in this world!


I got all dressed up to meet Grandma Vogts


 Me Too!


Hi Grandma! I am Matthew and that is my sister Abigail.


It was so comfortable in Grandpa's arms that we fell asleep.


Daddy is reading me a book, but there are not enough pictures.


Aunt Emily is helping me hold my head up!


Daddy, I am too little to play football!


Ready for our first walk. 
Why can't Mommy and daddy just carry us?


That was a long walk! We are tired.


Mommy is so cuddly!


Mommy says Aunt Kristin has a cousin in her belly.


I am hanging out with three generations of Vogts' girls!


Mommy and Daddy, you are embarrassing us!


It is always so nice to sleep close together.


My first bath!


I have a sweet hairdo!


That bath was a little scary...


But Daddy was there to comfort me.


Play Time!


We wouldn't fall asleep unless we could see each other,
 so Daddy figured out a way to make it work.


Hey, Ho, Hey, Ho


The backyard is great!


Everybody likes to sleep outside.


Mommy doesn't want me to scratch my face.


Playing with Mommy in the backyard.


Hi Grandma Schneider!


Hi Grandpa Schneider!


Daddy, I am so tired...


We may be twins, but we have different silhouettes. 


Daddy and Mommy love us so much!!!


Is sister asleep yet?


Yup


Aren't I just as cute as can be?


Peacefully sleeping...


Hi Mommy! Abby and I are having fun with Grandpa.


This was our first attempt at playtime...it didn't go so well.


This time we did much better.


I am going to miss you Grandpa.


We love you Grandma and Grandpa!
