arghhh!

jacob and isabel have been a lot more interactive with each other, which is fun to watch. here are some pictures that candace took of them "sharing" toys:

i got a happy meal the other night from McDonalds (yes i am a child at heart). the "toy" i got with my meal was a "Pirates of the Carribean" bandana with a plastic yellow dreadlock. here is my little pirate, argh!

exciting day!!

it is an incredibly exciting day here for the pié family... cincinnati has finally moved up in the world and our brand new IKEA is having their grand opening today!!! and soon our new Crate & Barrel will be opening. oh, cincinnati, you're on a roll!!!

and how can i not mention another reason to celebrate...jacob is 10 months old today. wow!

and by popular demand...a picture of our bedroom color.

white death

that's what they call snow in Kentucky. i call it heaven.
we got 12 inches on friday and saturday. i have to give the road crews credit, though. as much as people were freaking out and panicking about the snow, they did a great job getting the roads cleared. i guess the sunshine helped too.
we ventured out a few times. jesse painted our bedroom 'celery sprig' green, which really brightened things up. and now we are ready for spring!

colorado or bust

jacob and i spent this past weekend in colorado. we were able to go to jacob's great grandma vollbracht's surprise 80th birthday party. we also spent lots of time with aunt brianne, aunt michal, cousins ryan and lindsey, grandpa scruggs.

jacob did great on the plane! we even got to spend an extra day in colorado - thanks to a colorado snowstorm that helped us be late for our flight out on sunday morning. :)

here's the pics:
