Bern-Kastle

Here are some pics from our visit with the Bousloughs. We went to Bern-Kastle. There were wineries everywhere! It rained a little, but it wasn't problematic. We had a nice time. We are definitely going back.




The babes upon arriving in Bern-Kastle

Oh my..TOUR DE FRANCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.....not really




This one is just because. Tavin and Marlee playing....wouldn't look at the camera for anything!

Shhhweeet Thing

So here are a bunch of pictures we have taken. You should definitely scroll through, because there is the sweetest video at the end. She is such a little girl now and no longer a baby. She has four teeth and more wanting to make their way through. She isn't quite taking any steps yet, but she is pulling herself up on everything. She still manages to get into just about anything and everything she can. Her favorite right now would be crawling into her room and pulling all the books off her bookshelf. She would also probably stay outside all day if we let her. She loves going on walks and being outside. She puts her hand outside the stroller and tries to grab the flowers and bushes as we walk by. She is something special for sure.



So, I was trying so hard to get a picture of Marlee and I....it didn't work out. I just ended up taking a picture of myself instead.




Here she is getting the best daddy kisses!









Tavin loves touching Marlee! He likes her hair too I think. He is always trying to grab it.




"MMMMmmmmm........you smell good!!"




Her wheels are always turning.





Potty Time!! eh, kidding...she gets "nakeded" time before bath and has peed on the floor.....(good thing we have tile)....anyway I thought I would try sitting her on it. She didn't last long.




This has to be the sweetest thing ....

She's a Singer!



This is Marlee eating dinner. Notice, how most of it is under her?!?!?




Such a Goober! This one is my new fav I think! ...so hard to choose.




Another Model Pose.........she has these down!




So much expression!




Our sweet girl!





Those are just some of the recent pictures I have taken. She is such a ham for the camera. She is getting so big these days. She is 31in. long and 22.9 lbs! Her two top teeth finally came in, but not all the way just yet! She isn't sick anymore, ans is back to her usual self. We can't keep her in one spot now. She is everywhere she can get to. She definitely takes after her daddy and LOVES electronics! Any cords, remotes, laptops, dvd players....anything like that she loves! She now knows how to eject a disc from the PS3 and tries any moment she gets close enough. Her vocabulary has extended and now she says "Ogga" for Oscar and clearly says DaDa. Another exciting thing is that this week I found out that my mom gets to fly over here in September! I am so excited! Three generations of us women! ...uh oh...is that a good thing?? Jk... well I am excited that my mom gets to meet her. Then, a couple of weeks later Zachary's dad is coming and we are all going to Oktoberfest! I am not all that excited about the Oktoberfest thing, BUT the area is absolutely beautiful down there and I know we will have a great time. After all that is said and done...we won't have too much time left until we come home!! I am oh so excited about it I can't express it enough......however, I am nervous too. This has been our life for the past three years at this point. It has been different. It will be a transition coming back I'm sure, but we are ready for it. We don't know yet where we will be stationed, but if all goes well till we leave, we are set to come to texas for the first six months. Zach's retraining got approved!!!! yea!!!!! I am hoping to get to visit my family. I say hoping because you never know what can happen. Stay tuned!

We couldn't get her to look at the camera! Happy 4th!




She has been sick over the last week...feeling better now, but this was her when she wasn't feeling well! Poor thing!




She was sick here too. She was slapping her leg while relaxing.




Our sweet little lady soooo sleepy!




She fell asleep clutching on to this post it note!
