Silly Kid Faces

 

Kora is Mobile

 

It’s true!  As of June 16 at 6 1/2 months, Kora is mobile.  She is getting up on her knees and flopping forward.   

Most of it is actually backwards at this point.Tuck is mimicking Kora, here, doing the bridge. I do not remember when Tuck started crawling but I think Kora is ahead of him.  She just seems to want to be in the middle of things.

We are back to having to baby proof again.  It is amazing the number of tiny toys a 2 year old can accumulate.

I just love this picture.  Ahh, my boys.

And this one is Delicious!

Obstacle Course at Missy’s

TJ and I put together an obstacle course for the kids at Missy’s.  They had a ball.

First they rolled the giant ball around the orange cones… or over them as Tuck did.  Then they went up and over the slide.

Next they threw bean bags into a laundry basket.

Then they crawled through the tunnelThrew the pool ring over the baseball tee Walked across the 2x4 balance beam.  Here Tuck is really concentrating!   Then they crawled under a broom laid across 2 chairs and walked backwards to the finish line.  And finally it was time for their popsicle prize! Missy said it was a hit since we kept their attention for over 15 minutes.  They all ran through it at least 2 times and then played with the stuff the rest of the afternoon.  What fun!

Smile Baby!

If you need pictures done, I highly recommend Brook.  She's Fab!

Brook did a phenomenal job, as usual.  I love these little ones so much.  They make me smile every day.

Radio Celebrity-That's Me

This afternoon I did a telephone interview with the national radio program called "Living the Country Life". It airs twice daily on 306 stations in 39 states from coast-to-coast. The program is run by Meredith Corporation in Des Moines, Iowa (Better Homes & Gardens, Successful Farming, Ladies Home Journal, etc.) and Learfield Communications in Missouri. 

My segment was on Livestock Nose Pumps. 

This is me during the interview.  Deb came in and took the picture for future reference of "I knew her when..."

My interview will broadcast the week of August 23rd with Betsey Freese and a link will be on their website starting that week as well.  Check it out at http://www.livingthecountrylife.com/

I was pretty nervous so I can only hope I sound intelligent.
