No Bunnies

Teagan clung to her "bunny bread" as if it were the last supper. What is "bunny bread" you ask? Well, in a tiny town on the Skagit River near New Halem, WA there used to be a bunny haven. The local restaurant owners would save old bread for the bunnies in a giant garbage can labeled "bunny bread." Hundreds, maybe even a thousand bunnies have happily frolicked in the Clarks Cabin bunny sanctuary for over a half century. So who could blame us for getting Teagan all excited to see all the BUNNIES! Well, she soon learned her new favorite phrase, "no bunnies." The winter before last was too much for the little guys and they nearly all perished. Needless to say we didn't see a single bunny. We did however have a splendid time with Bips (my dad) anyway!

Cabins that we must rent this summer!


Getting hungry Mama...

I'm really hungry!

Ah to heck with those bunnies, I'm eating their bread!

Happiness!


Our little Tree Hugger!

It's the unibomber...
No, it's just Teagan, running of course

Victory!

Monkey see monkey do

Birthday #2 - The Seattle celebration :)

What would be an occasion if we didn't have a chance to celebrate with Aunt Kathy and the rest of the Federoff troop! So we did :)

For me? Again?

The raddest lego set in the world!

Little homunculus

Yes, Teagan has a kitchen aid before I do...


We literally looked away for one moment while Kathy was getting the
lighter only to find Teagan beating us all to the punch! HAHAHA. CLASSIC!



Already old enough to blow out her own candles, I'm getting verklepmt!

Don't worry, she didn't eat ALL this cake...


Birthday #1 Continued...

Refreshed after a LONG sleep and she's ready to party again!




She LOVES her umbrella, Op!!

Gi Gi and Julia's baby

Birthday #1

After getting up at 4:30am and traveling for 14 hours, we arrived to a full house of birthday party goers!

Ooooohhhhh CAKE!




Teagan's long day starts to catch up with her...



After she opened up Sha Sha's lady bug pillow she literally ran to the bedroom and begged to get in the pack 'n play. The party would have to be continued...

Ms. Clark

She's famous throughout the Mississippi Delta as being the fastest and sharpest seamstress in the land. With the coming of age, turning 2 and all, it was time for Teagan to meet Ms. Clark...

Pleased to meet you Ms. Clark...



Being SO GOOD until suddenly something pierces her skin.
Whoopsie Daisies, stuck by one of Ms. Clark's pins...
Already learning one of life's lessons, "Beauty is painful"
As my mother once said while ripping out knots in my hair.
Holding it together and wondering why am I here!

Now, you look just dawwwwling!

Viva Mississippi

We have yet to have a winter here in Seattle, so we decided to go south for some sub freezing tempatures - that and to celebrate Teagan's 2nd birthday with Will's family!

Luckily, there wasn't a shortage of skins to play with! Phew...
Nice kitty!

Meowww....

The face off...

Her new skill

Teagan's new pet bird! All the way from Switzerland.

Recent Phone Snapshots

Thank goodness for cell phone cameras!

weeeee!

Privacy Please!

Working again has its benefits; like having a 24 hour paid vacation Cancun!

The shell that nearly drowned me. I literally caught my toe in the thing while I was playing in the surf!
The toe crushing incident was worth it when I saw how much Teagan loved it!
She calls it a "hole" which I guess is a pretty good observation.

Our neighbor Liz who is currently living in Japan brought this kimono back for Teagan!
