I Scream, You Scream, Leah Definitely Screams

We are blessed to have two wonderful places to get ice cream within a 20 minute drive from our home. One is at Clemson's student center where they sell ice cream created by students in the school's dairy department. It's fantastic. The other is the Callaham Orchard which has a petting zoo, fresh produce and delicious ice cream to be enjoyed on a rocking chair on the front porch.

Well Leah didn't get to sit in a rocking chair, but she did enjoy her first taste of ice cream over the weekend. In fact she enjoyed the taste so much, that she went berserk when she could no longer taste it.

Unfortunately for Darcey, Leah ate a lot of her scoops of peach and strawberry. In my defense for not sharing, I tried to argue against giving Leah any ice cream at all. I mean, knowing how much her parents love the stuff, I thought it would be best to keep her from having ice cream until she could get a job and buy her own.

I think my plan would have been a good way to go. Judge for yourselves.

First Swim

We bought the swimsuit last month. We got the pool a little bit later.
We finally got to put all of the elements together today.

Awesome.

Wooing Leah


Have you ever seen two grown men battle over a baby's attention? It's pretty funny.

While in Wisconsin recently, Leah met her great-uncle Randy who she took to immediately. Grampa Dallmann was a little hurt by this because she is still a little unsure of him. So in an absolutely adult way, they both got on the ground and shook rattles in Leah's face in the hopes that they could win a smile or even a hug from Leah.

It was one of those golden moments that I will never forget.

Just like I will never forget Randy's promise to buy Leah a pony and pay her college tuition.
