Trip to Colorado

Hello friends,
During our trip to Colorado we spent some time in Estes Park, the Denver Zoo and visited CSU. Rori seemed more involved with her bottle and the walkway railing than the animals but we had a good time showing her the animals!



Lions....Ho My!

Going to be a CSU baby! Despite our best efforts, we could not find any baby sized outfits for Rori. Dusti even got ran out of a clothing place in down town Boulder (CU territory) looking for CSU garb...go RAMS!!

It is a bit chilly in Estes Park, CO but I have my camo "huntin for hugs" hat on and am toasty!

Grandpa spent about an hour remembering how to make a paper hat out of newspaper. We all giggled for hours when I wore it!

FOOD FIGHT!

Hello everyone!!

I have been so busy the last 2 months I have forgotten to post my latest pictures. Mom and Papa have been working diligently on their house plans. They would like to break ground by the end of the year, but time is ticking. Papa was almost sent to the Netherlands for work and Mom and I was supposed to tag along but the trip was canceled...bummer.

We spent this week in Colorado visiting friends and enjoying the front range....Go Rams! We enjoyed the Denver Zoo, Estes Park, Boulder shopping (They don't have any CSU stuff there) and papa went snow boarding with friends at A Basin. We even stopped by Mom's alma mater for a picture! The weather was great at 70 degrees, almost forgot why we left...until a snow storm blew in just as we were flying out;-)

On our way home drove to Phoenix for our friend Amanda's wedding. It was the first time I met her so we snapped a picture.

Looking forward to my first Thanksgiving and Christmas....as I have my grubby little paws into everything! I will post pictures of the zoo and wedding soon.

Roosevelt Lake Trip

I'm 7 months old now and trying to crawl!

My family decided to take a trip to Roosevelt lake before the summer heat let up! I got to hang out on the Prentice boat with my Ants, Uncle and cousins! We camped in a tent, swam and Mom and Dad even wakeboarded behind the pontoon boat. Take a look at a few pictures we took along the way.

Wow! These shots are one in a hundred...everyone's looking at the camera and smiling ;-)

Pat's Bass...you'll have to ask him how he caught it!

Mom and I are hangin' out on the boat in the shade. I usually have a bib on to keep my shirt from being saturated but it served as evaporative cooling...it was only 114 degrees out!

Long overdue update

Hello Babycakes here...aka Rori!

I've been so busy growing, laughing and playing lately that I haven't posted any new pictures. Mom and Papa have all sorts of nicknames for me....Rori J, Robox, and RoJo, but my favorite is Babycakes!


Dad and Mom are always on the go and we hardly ever slow down to smell the dirty diapers. Papa is in Death Valley right now working in the sweltering heat. He did get a chance to go skiing at Havasu for some fun. Mom and I are planning a trip of Columbus, Ohio next week for some continuing education....something about horse feet. When we all get back home the first item on the agenda is to make the molds of my hands and feet before I grow out of the casting material! The engineer and the doctor have been intimidated on mixing the quick drying molding material and have been putting off the molds for some time.

I took a trip to Phoenix for a friend's wedding and stopped by to see Doug. He even let me hang out on the scooter!

I was getting ready for my bath when mom put this ridiculous wash rag on my head then started dancing around like a moron. Guess what...out came the camera.

I've started wearing/eating rice cereal and can't wait to shove peas in my ears!

We do take some time to sleep and snuggle ;-)

You'll notice I have one foot out of my onsie. Papa loves to play with my feet! Mom took an opportune time to snap a pic while we were snoozin'

Signing off for now!

Rori Laughs

Pat, Dusti and Rori are having so much fun together!!! We took some pictures on Friday the 13th. ....she is 2 months old now. She is starting to smile and laugh a bit and give us endless hours of joy and entertainment. We can't decide who she looks more like.
She is holding her head up, laughing and starting to sleep through the night. Oh she is growing so fast!!

Dad is taking a moment to admire his little girl.



Mom's hands and Rori's sweet feet. Look at those Prentice toes...little grabbers!!

Fun with animals

I'm surrounded by stuffed animals and need a nap!

Family photos

Rori is 7 weeks now. We worked hard to keep her awake for the photos. It was mid day on a full belly so she was less then interested in voguing.

Funny faces & sweet feet

Daddy's hand with those little sweet feet!

Gimme that camera....I'm 1 month old now.
Surprise!! Smooches from mom.

Baby bump

Just in time to get the baby bump! Pat and Dusti were overwhelmed with anticipation for our new arrival. These photos were taken 2 days before Rori arrived. Of course our horses, Hank and Reina, had to be in a picture too.

First weeks

Rori at 7 days.....it took several pictures to get one worth posting where both eyes are open and the mouth is closed ;-)





9 days old and posing well for the camera. If only mom could get it in focus.

Baby's first trip to the Sonoita Ranch. The ranch horses and cattle can be seen with the Santa Rita Mountains as a backdrop.
