Wicked Busy Summer of 2011

So we did a lot of stuff and had a lot of fun. Check it out!



Hanging out with Grammy and Poppi.




Big smile with Joseph at Colby's big 3rd Birthday!



Joseph and Vonny getting ready to hit the beach at the house at Pawleys Island, SC.

And here we all are, the continued family tradition!

Another happy Collicki beach baby!




Laura and Colby catching the beachy moonlight on our last night at Pawleys.


And lots of art projects in the basement, where it was nice and cool.


Of course there were lots of stroller rides to the park and around the neighborhood.

And swinging at the park!


Colby and Vonny all suited up for a boat ride on the lake at Nennie and Grumpy's in NH.

Up at the top of the tower at Blue Job Mountain. No fear!


As usual, Princess Colby reading with Nennie.

Family fun on the lake.

Cutest Ever

So there have been times this summer (all 4 weeks so far) that I have wanted to tear my hair out. And then this happens....

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!!!

I just want to say happy father's day to all the Fathers out there. I hope you have a wonderful day with your family. I just have to say, that no one has it as good as me. Check out the videos on Picasa for the proof.

The Happy Helper Continues! Part 37?

Helping is so much fun. Colby likes helping and Vonn likes being helped. As we work on getting Vonn to eat semi-solids, we are also working on getting Colby to take over many of our parental duties. It has started with feeding Vonn. Next is babysitting?

And feel free to check out some other pics here.

Presents from Nennie and Grumpy

Today presents came from Nennie and Grumpy. We love presents!!! Last week it was cool stuff from Florida. This time it was super pretty dresses for me and Vonn. Check them out!!


We had so much fun much fun hugging and playing and hamming it up for the camera, we could hardly contain ourselves.

Oh, I fell over. (Don't worry, Daddy got us before we hit the floor)

I think that we both look so pretty in our new dresses. Mom and Dad wouldn't let us wear them when we ate spagehetti though. I told Mom the we looked so good we could be models and we should be able to do whatever we want. Vonn even struck a pose to prove my point. To no avail.


Oh well, the dresses are still the best and can't wait for a fancy occasion to where them. Schools out in 2 weeks. Happy Summer everyone.
Love, Colby and Vonn

The Happy Helper Continues! Part Fifteen?

I know we've posted a few under this title, but this one is true as well. Colby thought she would move Vonn so her Nennie could see better during a Skype session....You'll see how it turned out!

Hungry for More?

Click here for more pics than you could ever hope for! Eat your heart out.

And some more videos:

Eating squash! If by eating, you mean, shoveling food into a baby's mouth, hoping it will stay in and she will eat it!




Eating rice cereal! Vonn got gutsy and grabbed the bowl; she caught Daddy monologueing and made her move!




An older video of Vonn wearing the famous wig, the Donald. It looks more like Orphan Annie with a mullet. I put it on her head backwards by accident and it turns out, it still looks awesome!
