Feeding the Geese and Visiting the Garden

Another fun, family walk we took about a month ago.  I’m slowly catching up!  I wanted to test out my birthday present that had just come in the mail (a new lens), so beware of the many pictures.

Tybee’s 1st Birthday!

I really should have split this post into 2, but I didn’t :)  So make sure you have time to sit back and enjoy Tybee’s day with the many pictures that are here.

Of course we all had to greet her and sing to her the moment she woke up and she enjoyed every minute of it.  She is so much fun when she wakes up because she is so happy.  We just love this little girl.

This post is long overdue, as are some other posts that will hopefully be coming shortly.

About a month ago, we met up with some friends in Niederwerth, which is an island in the middle of the Rhein River, just outside of Koblenz.  I know Laura and her family from Houston.  They moved out here just over a year ago to go to graduate school.  It has been a lot of fun getting to know them better and having friends from home nearby.

The many faces of Tybee

Little Miss Independent

Two weeks ago, Tybee finally realized she can walk around all by herself and pretty much get where ever she wants to without any help.  It has been so great and so scary at the same time.  She gets into everything and wants to go everywhere, but I don’t have to be right there with her all of the time.  I can finally get some things done that I need to ( a little bit, anyway).

Finally a Warm, Sunny Day with no where to be

It was such a beautiful day today that Tybee and I had to get out of the house.  We ended up at the river and had a great time.  She was laughing and making happy noises the whole time we were there.  We even made a couple of friends :)
