Brotherly Love

While playing in the yard, I noticed Jacob loving playing with Joshua, stroking his face ever so gently. How sweet! Oh, the love my boys have for each other, what great... wait a minute...


Oh, I see, it wasn't an act of kindness, he was picking the grass clippings off his face from the grass fight that got out of hand before I saw what happened.
Joshua didn't seem to mind.

Now, I'm not going to get too excited yet, but...

Gracie is showing much interest in the potty. Yesterday, while giving her a bath, she starting yelling "potty!"
"Yep, that's the potty, now sit down and..."
Uh, huh. She peed in the tub. Duh, mom. She told ya she had to go. I'm just thinking she's much too young. Or maybe I'm much too lazy. At any rate, today, she told me "potty" so we rushed to the bathroom and sure enough, she went!

Now, aren't you glad I shared that with you? :)



She got her first pack of undies. Only... I don't think they go on your head. Unless I'm wearing mine wrong.



"Miwall!" In case you forgot, that means "smile"
Yeah, it's a calculator, but she thinks it's a cell phone. When I was a kid, I would pretend to take a picture and then crank my camera, not turn it around to show you the image. Oh, the technology these kids have today.

Big Sister, Little Brother

"Miwall, miwall, Ja!"
(Smile, smile, Josh!)

Wordless Wednesday

A few wedding pics

My favorites from Joy and Joe's wedding. I apologize for the poor quality - the Gym lighting is horrid. They really have to do something about that :)
And you have to see the photographer's pictures HERE. She did a great job! I was impressed with mine until I saw what she captured. Also check out Amy's view, she got a lot of great shots, too. She posted a good one of me (theres a camera in front of my face- isn't there always?)














Julia did the girls hair. She did a great job. Here is some of her handiwork.

Goofy Girls

So what do you do when it starts raining? Well, you run outside for a game of badmitton, of course!
I grabbed a plastic bag, wrapped up my camera and headed out there cause I guess I'm just as crazy (or stupid) as they are. And I got some really great pictures. But... Grace loves to look at the pictures on my camera. She can turn it on, hit the right button to display the pictures, and even browse through them. But, um, apparantly now she has also learned how to delete them. So this one is the only one I have left.

Our new niece

What a little cutie, and when I say little...
This is Lily, Kathy's (Tony's sister) new baby. Isn't she precious?



She's got some catching up to do
