Scriven Family: March 2011

Ary's new baseball & bat

Sometimes I knock the tee down but the ball still goes far!

Daddy showing Ary how to hold the bat.

We switched to pitching to her with Rodger helping. She thought that was pretty fun to hit the ball in the air.

Ary's Birthday February 2011

Ary wanted to take every picture with Hayley when she opened her presents.

Thanks for the new clothes Papa and CiCi!

Cooper, Hayley & Ary.

Ary & Papa working on her new puzzle

We celebrated Rodger & Ary's birthday together. Rodger got pink candles too. I tried to make cupcakes but didn't follow the high altitude directions and they were a flat mess. Luckily Rodger saved the day by buying some cakes. His carrot cake actually looked great but ended up being a ton of frosting even in the middle, it was WAY too sweet. It looked pretty though!

Ary just wanted the candy on top.

I think I'll help myself to some while you are cutting Daddy.

What a cute monkey CiCi and Papa!

Thanks for the build a bear from the Jaap's & Grandma & Grandpa Scriven. Don't tell anyone but I'm convinced it's a carebear.

Thanks for the Noah's Ark Granny Ann!

Thanks for Tinker Bell & her blanket Granny Ann.

What a cool placemat CiCi and Papa. Who knew you could find one with my name, neat!

Brynnley Hope

We had to get a second sonogram because we could not tell if the baby is a boy or a girl. We didn't pay for 3D picture but they were nice enough to take a couple anyway. It's a girl. Brynnley Hope.

Since Brynn was in the breach position at this time the lady got really excited that she could get such great shots of her legs. Pretty neat.

Granny Ann's, Grandma & Grandpa Scriven X-mas visit

I love the book "When you give a mouse a cookie" Granny Ann!

And now I have the mouse!

For some reason Ary tells us there is a mouse in her room. She says it's hiding. For awhile we stopped reading books about mice (though strangely enough there are a lot of mice in her books) but she loves this book and wants to read it every night so we just keep telling her that there is no mouse in her room.
