Christmas in Corpus

Some photos from Christmas in Corpus with the family.

Opening presents!!!

Megan's First Haircut!

Although she doesn't have MUCH hair, it was getting so scruffy and fuzzy that we took Megan for her first haircut in December. Not much to show for 2 years worth of hair, but it did look a lot neater after the trim!

And, Megan was lucky enough to get to sit in a cool car seat. It had a buckle, and a TV just opposite it with movies to watch and games to play. What fun for a haircut! Cool cuts for kids.

A sleepover

Megan got to have a sleepover, and have her good friends Ella and Brenna over.
Chris set about teaching all of the girls to make cupcakes, and Megan kept chanting "I'm cooking!"

In the end though, Megan refused to frost hers, or even eat frosting, and Brenna ate only frosting. Everyone had a lot of fun though.

This is a quick shot of the girls the next morning as they were playing and sitting together.

Megan turns TWO!

Megan had fun at her birthday party in Amarillo this year. She got lots of fun presents and had a great second birthday. Here are lots of snapshots of her fun.

A Chilly Thanksgiving in Amarillo

Megan got another real taste of winter during the Thanksgiving trip to Amarillo. In my memory, Thanksgiving was always a cold and snowy time. It could be beautiful the day before and the week after, but somehow that week always brought winter storms, travel difficulties, and cold windy Amarillo weather.




True to form, we got a small winter blast when we visited. Even a whole day of big white snowflakes.

Here is a picture of Megan and Mommy at the beginning of the snowy Thanksgiving day.

Christmas Pictures

A few photos from some fun we had playing dress up and taking pictures

Reading a book

Fake smile. This is the look that you get if Megan notices that you are taking her picture! Also, this is what happens if you tell her to "Smile" or say "Cheese!"

And a few of the more authentic faces of Megan....

Family Homan -- Nov 2007

A bit of the "buzz" from halloween

Megan was a bumblebee for Halloween, right down to her fun bee shoes.

We even got to go to the Fort Worth Zoo's "Boo at the Zoo" with her buddies Ella & Brenna

A shower for my cousin

In October, we flew to Denver for a baby shower for my new baby cousin. He didn't have a name then, but I soon learned that his name is Martin. I can't wait to get to meet another fun cousin!

It was really cold in Denver, and the first time this year that I had to get all bundled up to go outside. I kept my hat on all day and snuggled in tight. It finally got warm just when we were going home. Oh well!

Some cute random shots

Cool new hat. Hangs conveniently on the kitchen wall!


My, what big feet you have Daddy!



And then several more shots of the cute and expressive faces of Megan. Of course for these, she was sporting her new black and blue spots due to an unfortunate incident with a computer desk!

Pfffbbbbbbbbbbb

This photo actually has sound effects! You might notice the action shot of Megan's lips. For about two months, this was her favorite noise -- something like "pffbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb"

It came out as babble. It came out in sentences. It is most often applied when she is aggravated or frustrated.

However, here we just caught a still moment of Megan in one of her pfffbbbbbbbb modes.

The Botanical Gardens

A few photos from several of our trips to the Botanical gardens. Really a beautiful place, and lots of great picture opportunities. But mostly, Megan loves to feed the huge Koi fish at the Japenese gardens.

Shots with Mom & Dad

And my favorite fish
