Walking!!!

It's only been the last couple of days that Bailey has started doing this. Before she'd let go take one step and drop down. We're sure proud of our little girl, but we're also not completely looking forward to what's ahead with her walking...

Niagara Falls

Hi all.  We visited one of the most awesome wonders of the world.  This is Liesl and Bailey in front of the Canadian Horse Shoe falls of Niagara Falls.  True to form, Bailey was as interested in the people as the spectacle. 

They let you get up close with the falls.  Bailey did like looking over the edge...

They teach you about the creation of the falls in a 4-D movie called Niagara's Fury.  Bailey found a friend who happened to be the movie's narrator. 

By the look on her face, it could have been her favorite part of the trip.

She stayed like this for several minutes.  In a couple years, she may ask to talk about our trip to see the giant beaver.

We took Bailey on the Maid of the Mist.   Here we are riding past the American falls.  We're in the blue ponchos on the deck.

 Bailey was the youngest sailor aboard, but looked bravely into the face of danger.

After several minutes of churning at the base of the falls, we were all ready to go back to base.  The view was breathtaking.

On land, we journeyed behind the falls.  This was our favorite spot for viewing Niagara Falls.

When we dried off we went butterfly hunting... Bailey has a keen eye for the flying insects, and even developed her detective abilities for those that had landed.  Found you!

She did such great work that the Canadians rewarded her with their 2nd highest honor,

....to be a mounties trusted moose.  What a privilege.

After a hard days work with her two favorite sidekicks the stresses of the day started to show in her eyes.  Knowing her job was done she could rest well.

Visiting the Zoo and Playing in the Pool!!!

Today was a beautiful day, so Jared decided to take Bailey and I to the Zoo.

We saw lions, gorillas, and koalas.  The tigers and bears apparently had the day off.  We did get to walk behind this lorikeet exhibit.  It was one of the very few times today that Bailey payed more attention to the animals than the people.  We thought her favorite animal would be a monkey or a fish, but it ended up being the indiginous primate people of Cleveland.

That was apparently not enough excitment for one day, so we took her out to our swimming pool.  The water had been heating for two days, and was just right.  She was even a good sport when she fell in face first on her right side.  This picture details the sad, wet, right piggy tail that never recovered.  Although the piggy tail was sad, Bailey was amused.

She learned the delicate art of splashing!

It was a fantastic day.

Crawling and Eating

It seems like just yesterday Bailey was born, and now she's scooting around the house like it's nothing!
I'm going to give Grammy Gilman all the credit for this one. She was working a ton with Bailey to get her to crawl. She's also starting to really enjoy her food! Everytime we feed her now she makes this really funny noise...

New Baby Girl!

We went to have our ultrasound on Tuesday and found out we're having another baby girl!

This is my favorite picture!

I also love this one of her cute little feet!

and here's the proof...

Easter Break

Over Easter, Bailey and I had to leave daddy and go to Wisconsin to help out with Grandma and Grandpa Gilman. We had lot's of fun visiting all of our friends and family.

These two pictures are some of Bailey's "photo shoot" at the Fillmore's at Easter

This was our walk around the lake with the Fillmore's

We had so much fun and look forward to having Daddy with us next time we go!

The Harris'

Our time with the Harris' came and went too quickly, but we had lot's of fun while it lasted!

Grandma and Grandpa Curtis sent Bailey a book for Easter that she loved sharing with her cousins

We wish we had more picture to put up, Bailey playing with Uncle Jay at the Children's Museum... , but we couldn't find the cord to Aunt Julie's camera to get the pictures off : ( Maybe sometime soon we'll get them! Thanks for coming to visit!!!!!
