TM 4's Pictures

TMurphy 4
(and now there are four of us!)
TMM * TLM * TRM * TARM

Here are some more pictures of us. Some are from our trip to Monterey Bay, CA. The rest are pictures of our "real life"--dogs, house, cooking, van . . .

On Vacation

Here are my three men right after a shower. Tom and Thomas' hair usually looks better, but Timothy's seems to have chosen the "sideways mohawk" permanently. The cheesy paneling is part of the deluxe motel accommodations (Tom says it's 1/4" plywood--and nothing else--I'm happy we're not visiting in the winter).

At the Beach

Here are Thomas, my sister Mandy, and I at a beach in Asilomar. The sand was white and wide at this point. We're looking for otters. We saw at least three from this vantage point. Then we went searching in the tide pools. Thomas saw snails, hermit crabs, anemones and tons of kelp. The kelp is dying because El Nino is warming the water so much.

Family portrait with Sandy

Sandy is the humpback whale at the Pacific Grove Natural History Museum. We're all squinting in the sun and sad to be headed home.

Rollin' Rollin' Rollin' Watch that baby Rollin'

Timothy is on the move and now rolls from back to tummy and back again. He's holding his head up well and Sept 20th he pushed up on tummy and toes and tried to "crawl". I think he's on the fast track like his big brother, who walked at 9 months.

Souffle

Here I am, nursing Timothy, sitting down to dinner of my first cheese souffle. I'd never made one before and it came off very well. The three of us gobbled it up and I'm sure I'll be making more.

Our House and Van

Here's where Timothy was born. If you look carefully at the house, you'll see the front window was the door to the hayloft back before 1930 (or so) when the carriage house became a residence. The van, however, is very new and fits the four of us quite well.

Sit!

Ummmmm. When you give the sit command at our house you get a big reply. S'more (the red greyhound), Goblin (the fawn Italian Greyhound) and Thomas (the little boy ;-) all plop their butts down and wait for a treat. We really didn't teach Thomas to do this, but it was a great trick when we lived in an apartment and had to dry feet when we came in from a wet walk.
