AAAHHHHH....Mexico!

I always look forward to Mexico. Pretty much, we are lazy all day and soak up the sun! And that's exactly what we did this trip! It was perfect weather(as always in Mexico)! Our activities included eating, swimming, sleeping, and an occasional walk!
Gentry did great despite the heat. She loves the water, and was walking into the ocean by herself by the end of the week.
(Again, there are more pics of our trip in "Knecht Family Pictures")





Gentry's One Year Pics

So, Gentry is almost 15 months now, and i am just getting around to posting her "one year" pictures. But actually, I just got them from Emily, who took them when we were in Orlando. Anyhow, they are too cute, and i can't wait to frame a couple!
She is a camera snob. She doesn't like to smile at the camera, you have to catch her off guard. And now she is starting to turn the opposite way and run when she sees the camera! Just her way of showing some independence i guess!! So, we only got a couple of pics of her smiling, but they are all still cute!
I uploaded the rest into the Picasa Web Album, which you can see by clicking on "Knecht Family Pics" on the right of the screen!




This is her "Are you kidding me?" face.

My First Flower Bed!

I finally got sick of looking at all the deadness and weeds in my front flower bed. I put myself to work, tearing out all the dead plants and weeds, raking the soil and planting all new flowers! I did have help from a few little girls i found begging on the street (just kidding, i was watching them for the day, but they came in handy!) and my wonderful husband! This is the first flower bed I have ever planted, so we'll see how it goes! Hope you enjoy the before and after as much as we did!!
