Family Fun

Testing the waters....
Bright white butt!
Me and my Grandma!
The Simon clan


Last weekend we went to Grandma Jean's for Lauren and Jeannie's graduation party! It was great to see all of the family. I had so much fun socializing and playing in the pond. Grandpa gave me too much sugar, again. Later we went to Jennifer's house and I saw my first fireworks! It was sooo cool! Mommy said it was the best fireworks she had ever seen. Momo liked it too, but it was a little too loud for him. All in all it was good times! We all took a well deserved nap when we got home!
****Feel better soon MIMI, mommy said she is soo sorry you don't feel well!

Baby boy's baptism!

Little boy looks like a little girl!
The dunking!
Parents and Godparents...
Baptism is exhausting!
The seven grandsons!

What a busy weekend! Momo had his baptism today and the whole family (except Uncle John; he's too far away, and Aunt Amy and Uncle Derrick were out of town) came down and we spent some quality time together. After the baptism everyone came over and we had a little party where everyone ate too much and drank lots of sugar filled drinks! It was great!
Love Ya!

We had so much fun at the zoo last week. We got to see Mimi, Beth and Janet. Andrew had tons of fun hanging out with all of the girls. He, Baylor and Momo were the only boys! He's definately not used to that!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Opening presents...
The BIG gift....
TWO candles!
Yummy...sugar.....

Happy Birthday Andrew! The big number 2! Andrew started the day opening his many presents! He got a tee ball set, his first tool box, his first play-doh, some african animals and the diego motorized 4 wheeler. He got on his 4 wheeler for about two minutes and then was done with it; it scares him so we're going to have to slowly work up to that. He has spent most of the day walking around with his screw drivers "fixing" mommy's house! We went this morning to the second street market with Chris and Matt and spent the rest of the day at home. It is raining and chilly out so our plans for a day at the pool have to be put aside for another day....All in all it was a good day, lots of family time together!

What a weekend!

We had such a busy weekend! On Friday we drove to Pennsylvania with the Kidders. It was a very LONG drive. Saturday was the best day of all. We went to great wolf lodge and went swimming. It was sooo much fun! Even Joseph went swimming for a little bit! We got to see all of our cousins and hang out with Grandma and Grandpa! It was just great! On Sunday we went to the playland at McDonalds and had a great time there too! I was running around so much that sweat was pouring off of me. I really liked hanging out with the family; the only person missing was John. We'll get him here eventually! Mommy is having trouble uploading pictures, so this is it for now (us at great wolf). We'll get the rest up as soon as we can and you can all see us and all of our cousins! We're a pretty cute bunch if I do say so myself!

Love Ya!

TICKERS TAKE TWO!

THE TICKERS ARE BACK! THANK YOU SO MUCH BETH!!!!!!!!!

Fatty McFat!

Joseph went to the pediatrician this morning for his two month check-up. All went well; he did not like his shots; but drank down the rotavirus vaccine! Tubby weighed in at 15 pounds 9 ounces. He is so fat that he doesn't even have a percentile; he is off of the charts! Dr. Heritage wasn't concerned, so neither are we. He is 23 inches long; 50th percentile. Daddy called him a little sumo. He goes back in two months and we'll see where he is then!

TICKERS!

Grandma brought it to mommy's attention yesterday that our birthday tickers are gone! Apparently when mommy updated to the new blogger the tickers were wiped out. Mommy tried very hard today to put them back in but the way the template is set up it can't be done. When mommy has more time she will try again, but as of right now they don't fit into the blogger allotted space. I know this is very upsetting to everyone, as it is me; mommy will do everything she can!

Getting things done!

This is me sleeping in the high chair. It was just sooo exhausting to eat my lunch!

Here are the Snowden boys! I love to hold my brother now!

This one is me and my BEST friends. I love to roll around with my dogs!

Just wanted to let everyone know what we've been up to. I am really starting to like this big brother thing! Whenever we go anywhere I get to show him off to everyone and make sure that everyone knows that he is MINE! I also let mommy know if Joseph is crying b/c she obviously doesn't hear him b/c she doesn't get up and run to him like she should. Lots of times I make it into his room before her and have to talk to him and calm him while we wait for mommy. I keep trying to climb into the crib with him but for some reason mommy doesn't like it when I do that! We've been keeping busy around here. Mommy finally finished painting the living room (basque brown). It is lovely. This weekend we are going to work in the yard with daddy (he's THRILLED about doing yardwork!) and put up the trim in the living room. We are also getting ready for our trip next week. I am sooo excited about a road trip with my cousins! We will be taking lots of pictures b/c it will be the first time all 7 grandsons (that's right, no girls!) will be together. We'll make sure to post lots for everyone to see!
Love ya!

Andrew

Here are a few more pictures to keep everyone updated on our growth! The first one highlights all of Joseph's fat rolls quite well. Then a certain cutie pie drawing. The third one is Joseph fighting AIDS in Africa! Who knew it was as easy as just laying on the couch! Lastly, all the Snowden men. Aren't we handsome!?! If daddy looks a little rough it is from the two bottles of wine he drank last night!

Love Ya!
Andrew

Snowden Boys Update

We're keeping busy here! Joseph is getting so big, so fast! Mommy calls him tubby tubby b/c he's sooooo fat! She has to go shopping for some new clothes b/c he's getting so big! I'm not the best at counting but I think he has 3 chins! And his arms and legs look like sausages! I'm doing well too. I am allergic to my sunscreen so I am covered in red splotches (ALL OVER) but they are finally starting to go away. Once they are all cleared up I will get to spend time outside again! Mommy and I are working hard trying to decide what color to paint the living room and planning all our household projects. Have fun everyone!
Love ya!
Andrew

Random Pics

Brotherly love! Hiding the ball. The joy of sweet corn! Party in the park with daddy!

Bath Time Fun!

We took our first bath together! This kid is a water hog! Also; I'm not all about sharing my toys and having to hold back on the splashing! Joseph loved it though! He's a water baby just like me!

Love ya!

Andrew

Afternoon in the park

Yesterday after daddy got home from work we went to the park. We had so much fun playing and feeding the ducks! Joseph slept the whole time (as you can see from the picture that mommy isn't smart enough to rotate). It was great fun for all!! I hope you guys are all having as much fun!

Love ya!

Andrew

Weekend Away!

Last weekend we all went to Archbold for Jared's first communion. (Congratulations Jared!) We had a great time visiting with the family; especially Grandpa Simon! Joseph and I like him and Grandma better than we like our parents! We stayed at Sauder Inn and went swimming (except for mommy b/c of her vac). We also went to the new playground with 26 foot slides! I had so much fun!!!!! Jospeh just sat in his seat and watched; he's still a blob and is not very interactive yet. That's ok though; I have enough fun for both of us! Mommy forgot the camera so we only have one picture to post that Grandma took for us. It is our first family picture with the four of us!!! We will be getting our pictures done sometime in the near future and I will have mommy post those too. That's about all that is going on here; we just hang out and play! We'll keep you updated!

Love,

Andrew
