Holy *@%#!


Picture it: Midnight in Seattle, Wa
Matt: "Jenna!...Jenna! Hey..."
Jenna: "What!? I'm sleeping. What is it?"
Matt: "Check this out. Look what I just found right outside the front door." Hey...Jenna..look. It was right outside. "

Jenna sleepishly turns 180 degrees to see what all the excitement is about. And then wishes to GOD she didn't. A lady shouldn't know such icky things exist. Especially when trying to drift off to sleep.

So..who wants to come visit first?

Whoop! Whoop! I'm T-W-O

Hey Pop! You're two! These past couple years have been a blast and you keep us on our toes that is for sure. We love you baby girl!

Welcome Zoe Olivia

Yep...more girls. Hey Zoe, you are the final member of our foursome (on Daddy's side), and I am the oldest and know the most. Vivian, Gigi, and I are so excited you are here.

Girl Power!

So, here we are. Us three girls with no boy cousins in sight. We may find come early September that we get to gang up on a new boy cousin. However, my gut feeling is we will be adding another girl to the mix. G-I-R-L P-O-W-E-R!

All Of Us

It was a house full, but we sure had a great time together. Uncle Adam, Auntie Birdie, care to join us in all of this craziness? We will be patient....but hurry up!!!!!!

Hook 'Em Horns Jay-Jay?

Does Jay-Jay have as much Longhorn spirit as the rest of my family? What have I gotten myself into? Jorja..can you help me out here? Eh...I think I'll love him anyway.

A Close Hug

I am already finding out about one of the great things in my life...Jan-Jan.

Hello Salem!

I met my Grampa and my Gra'ma Carol this weekend. Think they like me? Yeah, I think it is safe to say that they like me. I love them too. :)

Sorry Girls...

I love this matching outfit stuff! Thanks for getting us started Aunt Kristen!

Hi.

Hi. It's me..Gigi. So far so good. Thanks to everyone who has been asking about me and sending such wonderful welcome presents. I think I am going to like it here. :)

Holding My Breath

I hope all this "big sister" stuff goes O.K. I am not sure how to take care of such a little person. Hope I have some help.

Gigi is Here!

We welcome with tons of LOVE...

Gillian "Gigi" Lindley Gehring
July 1, 2007 at 2317 (that's the same as 11:17 p.m.)
8 pounds 7 ounces (yikes!)
20 inches

Everyone is doing great!

Here We All Are...

So this is the moment we have all been waiting for. Only five and a half hours of labor from start to finish. Quite the difference from 26 hours the first time around. :)

Nothing Like a Sister!

OK, so here is the first thing I have to tell you Gigi, we are sisters and we have to stick together. Stay close to me and I will help you figure this place out.

My Cousins..and Pals

Here are my cousins Jason and Vivi. Did you know that after my sister comes, my aunt Vanessa is going to have a baby girl? There will be four of us girls all within just two years! Us gals can't wait to drive Jason and Zach c-r-a-z-y!!!

It's a Pool Thing.

Daddy and me at the neighborhood pool. He lets me go down the big slides, jump off the side, float on my back, and go under water all by myself. Mommy just pretends like she doesn't see. :)

OHHH-EESSS-YOU (OSU)

Gra'ma Carol~ It's official. I'm a fan! Thanks for my first Beaver T! There's still room for my precious Longhorns right? ;)

It's a Hard Knock Life...

Yep. Earnin' my keep. Anyone else have to put up with such things? (Actually, I can't get enough of the sweeping. I also do windows and am excellent at dryer loading. Call me for an in home estimate today!)

All Ready to Go

Well, nothing else I can do at this point except...EVERYTHING! We are all ready to go. Now we wait...and wait...and wait.........

See Me. See Me in the Sea.

Yep. It's. Me.
I am in the sea.
The sea. The sea.
It's just the sea and me.

OOOO Weeeeee....

This water is C-O-L-D. We better just stay here for a spell.

Lovely Day for a Picnic

Me and my best pal Lexie are enjoying some spirits, light snacks and of course some girl talk.

I was Trying to Have a Fit but...

Then I decided I was having too much fun for such nonsense and decided to drop the "tude". Painting makes everything OK. :)

A Fun Mess to Get Into

We had so much fun painting mommy's belly. She has told me that I will not be doing this on her tummy once my sister arrives. ;)

Ready To Do It All Again?

Yeee---haw!

Us

It's just us. Waiting for little you.

Don't Worry POP...

You will always be my first baby girl, and you will be such an amazing big sister. I love you.

Summer is HERE!

Yes my peeps, it is officially summer! This means, my sister is coming very soon, I get to eat lots of peaches, and it has even been rumored that I may get to have a later bed time. Yipeeeee!

His Name is Simon...

..and he is the bee's knees. He is from a great family and I like him very much. We plan on a 25 year engagement. I'll keep you posted on the deets.

Can We Just Hang Here?

I know you two are busy unpacking the new house, so Indy and I will just stay out of the way and eat our snack. If you need me let me know.

Daddy and Me Just Chillaxin'

I am fixin' to head to my swim class in a minute. I am ready to go, but I am not sure Daddy is ready to let me go. Hey..I'll be back. I promise!

How BIG am I?

Sooooo B-I-G! 35 weeks and into the home stretch.

"I'm Working"

I spend way more time in one of these than you Daddy so let me just show you what goes where and how this all works. Hold it steady Daddy while I lift this side up. Easy...easy...hold it...

A Cha-Cha-Cha...

See...I know what I'm doin'. It's perfect!

Mother's Day 2007

Daddy and I took Mommy out for Mother's Day. We had a very nice brunch and I ate all my parfait all gone. :)

Mirror Mirror on the Floor...

Who is the one we all adore? Hey..it's POP!!! Hi POP!

"Rents" Night Out

So my rents went to the Mariners game the other night. Seems like they will be doing this a lot this season. I get to go to a few games, but for the most part this is their time. Soon enough they will be home with my little sis. (He-He. Hope they enjoy their freedom while it lasts!)

Our New Home

We took the plunge and bought our first house. This means we will be staying in Seattle for a spell. We couldn't be more excited!

Put the Pedal to the Metal and DRIVE


zzooooommm.....eeeerrrrrtttttt......vvvvvvmmm.........wwwahhhhh...
wwwwweeeee.....OH. Hi...guess I better keep my eyes on the road. See ya..eeeeeeerrrrrrttttt...vvvrrrrmmm...

Gotta Ride!

We are off to see the farm on the John Deere. I have to be familiar with these rigs to stay in good with my G'pa. So far so good.

Hey Glory...

Let's check out the neighbors. Don't get us caught. Stay cool kid, stay cool.

Goin' a Marketing...

I have taken to driving our cart around. This way I can control where we go in the store and get my mom to buy me what I want. Funny how when we get home all we have is fruit, veggies and other things that are "good" for me.

A Day at the Beauty Salon

Here I am in my stylist's chair getting my hair done. I went from what I heard my Auntie Bubbles call a "mullet" to a very posh "bob". I had a very pleasant afternoon and will be booking my next appointment for six weeks from now.

The Finished Product

So..what do you think? I like the bounce it added to the back.

Um...Did Someone Say...

COOKIES?! I don't ask for much. Just a cookie now and then. I'll be your best friend. :) Anyone?

Check Out the Huge Waves

Don't worry peeps, I won't let my Daddy get swept out to sea. It may look peaceful from where you are sitting, but those waves were vicious. Plum near knocked me off my feet.

She Sells Seashells...

I went to a very fun place the other day. Mommy called it the "shoreline", while Daddy insists it's a "beach". Guess I will have to get back to San Diego one day soon to make the comparison for myself (I have a feeling my Mom is right) Whatever it is...I dig it.

An Action Packed Day

We spent a great day at Griffith Park with my family. I love my Jay-Jay and Jan-Jan! They are the bees knees. We took a few minutes out of our busy day to relax in the cool grass.

Me and My Jay-Jay

I was pooped after having so much fun. My Jay-Jay knew just the right thing to do for a bit of a pick me up. I like the view from up here.
