A Great Week!

Our week has been very busy and full of fun! As I said before, Jason's dad was able to come out for the week just in time for turkey season. They were very successful and Dad got his first turkey! We later had a very yummy feast consisting of a juicy fried tukey. The guys were also able to work on some of the wood work that needed finishing in the house, and thanks to Dad's help, it looks beautiful! We are so thankful that we were able to spend time with Dad and Matt. We had a wonderful week!

This week is EXTRA special because Pop Pop Argo is here visiting! We have had so much fun! Rowen even had a day with just the Argo boys. Jason, Matt (brother), and Ed (Dad), and Rowen went to visit Mom Mom Argo in Delaware for the day on Tuesday. They had a great time. We will post more pictures of our week later.

Fun in the Sun!

We have had beautiful weather the last couple of weeks! We could not resist taking advantage of it and going outside to play. Jason has taken up fly fishing with some of the guys at our church and Rowen and I decided to go to the park and watch Daddy fish. Rowen was looking so cute, I couldn't resist taking pictures!

~Jason and our friend Chip fly fishing~

~That is one good lookin' fisherman!!!~


~Rowen enjoying the park!~


~That's our girl!~

~When I am getting ready in the morning, Rowen likes to come in the bathroom and watch me. She loves to play with her brush and comb!~

~Bathtime is one of Rowen's favorite things to do. She loves to lay on her belly and kick and splay her little feet. She is going to love it when we go to Florida in a month!~

Happy Spring!

We hope that all of you had a wonderful Easter and are enjoying the warmer weather. We had a lovely Easter and were able to spend it with the DeLue side of the family (Jason's mom's side). It was SO much fun! Rowen was able to play with her Great Mom Mom, Great Aunts and Uncles and her VERY cool cousins. It was also Uncle Ralph's Aunt Laura's 95th birthday, so we were able to celebrate her amazing birthday with her!

Today was a big day for us. It was Rowen's last time in her bassinet. She is actually sleeping in her crib tonight for the first time. I have already cried. We will see how much sleep I get (or won't get I should say) tonight. Our little girl is growing so fast!!!

I had a minute so I thought I would post a few pictures from our week. As you can see Rowen is very busy and constantly changing!

Having So Much Fun!!!

So much has been going on in our lives! So much that I have neglected this blog. I apologize for all of the pictures at one time, but it is my way of playing catch up. Chris and Heidi Decker from Michigan came out and we went to New York City for dinner and some site seeing. We had a blast! It was SO wonderful seeing them...we miss you guys!
We were able to go to Buffalo about two weeks ago and had a great time with Jason's parents. We were also able to see the Arnolds's new baby boy Nathan....he's beautiful!
This Sunday, Rowen was dedicated by Dr. Harry Wood, our DS. Our families were able to come out for it. It was a wonderful service! (I will post pictures of the dedication later when we get them from the photographer.) Needless to say we have been busy, but having a lot of fun too!!!

~ Playing with Mom Mom is so great!~

~ Who needs toys when you have such cute toes?!~

~ Okay, so I had to put this one up. I thought I would try and get a cute mom and daughter picture myself. Well, Rowen thought it would be more fun nursing my nose than smiling for the camera!~

I'm A Big Girl Now!!!

~ Rowen loves her "nakey" time!~

~ We love Rubber Ducky!~

~Get that Ducky!~

I know, I know, it has been WAY too long since our last post. Time has flown by! I can't believe Rowen is 5 months today! She has been changing by leaps and bounds. She is now 11lbs 12 oz ! She is still a petite little thing but she is growing fast! She has started eating rice cereal and loves it. She rolls from her tummy to her back and back to tummy. She laughs and "talks" all the time!

We have been VERY busy lately. I have started working at a local gourmet cafe for about 15 hrs a week. I really like it; it is convenient and fun and helps out a lot! Jason has taken on more resposibilities at our church and is enjoying ministry. We have a wonderful, supportive church family, staff, and board!
We have also been blessed recently with new carpet for the whole house! Jason has been busy putting in Pergo flooring for our dining room and it is looking beautiful. We are almost done; the house is coming back together slowly, but surely getting back in order. We are so excited to have it all completed!

We love you and hope everthing is wonderful with you!
