Caitlynn is Here!

Gotta start those Mariner fans early!

Dave suits up!

Ryan lost a tooth while we were at the hospital...

It's Another GIRL!!! Introducing Caitlynn Marie Schmidt, born January 5, 2007, 9 lbs.

Jacob and Ryan call meat balls "meat bulbs."

Guess what? We have lots of HANG UPS! Do you know what those are? They are clothes that are SUPPOSED to be hung in the closet instead of put in the dresser.

Luke called Caitlynn Marie, "Caitlynn Barie" for quite a while!

4/28 - Jacob called his zip-up pajamas "zip-lock" jammies!

5/16 - Jacob said when he's an adult he's going to be on "AMERCAN IDOL" and sing, "On Top of Spaghetti, all covered with cheese....."

5/18 - While watching "Bonanza," Ryan asked, "Is that Little Joe?" "No," Luke replied, "That's Big Joe!"

5/18 - Luke's playing with a robot and says, "Jacob, I'm playing with the redbot. Are you playing with the bluebot?"

5/28 - Cassandra described something as "hugantic!"

6/4 - Luke says, "Mom, my pants are inside out. Can you put them inside in?" (He had put his pants on by himself...

We'll continue to add more funnies as we hear them!

BEAR With Us...

As I keep learning how to publish this blog, it will change from time to time. So please keep checking back for the latest updates! I can't seem to get the text to correspond with the photos sometimes... I'll keep working on it! (Kristina)

January 2007

A very quick photo session with Caitlynn (1/15/07 - 10 days old) and Rebecca (15 mo.). We didn't plan to have matching outfits; 2 different people gave us almost the same outfits for the girls! Caitlynn is oblivious to what's going on...Rebecca is still trying to get used to not being the baby anymore...

Rebecca examines her "prey" (Lukester).

Dave gets a not-so-quiet moment with his newest daughter. Caitlynn is 8 days old.

March 2007

Our new wood-burning outdoor furnace that will heat our house, garage, and water, and save us tons of $$$ .

In case you wondered, the kids DO go on the slide in the winter time. Brought this slide all the way from Oregon!

Looking across the street from our house. Love those trees!

Isn't Caitlynn cute?

Easter 2007

A rare moment when Rebecca is still.

This is the best photo we could get of Rebecca's curls...she's always on the move! She's the first of our children to show a bit of curl...we hope it lasts!

Dave tries to get Rebecca to sit still for her photo-op while Jacob smiles his usual mischievious half-grin.
Caitlynn enjoys her Easter outfit (we bought it in Indonesia).

Cassandra has an extra-large basket...it's for storage for her newly-remodeled room.

Luke...need we say more?
Jacob-don't eat the plastic egg!?!

What a toothless grin, Ryan!

Brandon doesn't look too thrilled about his purple peeps...

Luke's just happy knowing it's chocolate time. We had a big discussion about why people eat the bunny ears first.

The kids pretend to be asleep.
Luke will fall asleep anywhere!
