All kinds of pictures (and a birthday)

Hi Everybody!  We've been keeping busy. Mostly, these days, we are keeping busy by growing. Here's a quick slew of photos:

How we roll (inspired, I'm pretty sure, by the 4th of July parade).




M's Birthday!





The birthday walk, enlivened by gathering dandelions.

What she wanted for dinner.

Three candles, although the third is hard to see.





The neighbors gave us their swing/play set. The kids are pretty thrilled.










Trying to capture a photo before church--only moderately successful. At least the baby isn't screaming in this one!







This is what you call a great outfit.






And some video footage:

Summer Days

Hi Everyone!

Here is some more footage and more pictures of life these days. We are doing well. Our little guy remains little--he still hasn't broken 11 pounds despite his large size at birth--and we are taking him in for periodic weight checks. He is learning new things and seems to be a pretty healthy, happy baby, though, which is reassuring!

Here are the kids riding their balance bikes (notice that M, as usual, is singing a song of her own making):



I was trying to capture some of his smiles:



And a few pictures from around our house:


I was pretty proud that I managed to take all three to the zoo by myself!



He likes his bath, but apparently pools are NOT his thing.






The classic preschool graft: gluing beans and pasta.


The kiddo picked these and told he he had "organized them" for me.

All the Latest Pics

First off, Easter:



(Learning how to pose from Uncle Tom)

Ready for church.





Mostly the Baby Boy:



Aunt C. was able to make an impromptu visit.




We finished another read-aloud chapter book!

More Baby Pictures!

Hi Everybody!

Our life is pretty baby-centric right now, so here are some baby photos (it's pretty much all we've got around here).

The kids are enjoying the baby. Mr. A  says that the baby is his favorite person now instead of me, and thus it shall remain until the baby is 1, when I will be favorite again.

Miss M was smoothing down the baby's hair with something wet. I asked her if it was spit. Oh no, she said-- "No, it's just water from my mouth!"


Taking a brief nap in the pack n' play in the dining room.

First family walk!

Looking surprised after I washed his hair in the sink.

Miss M was helping Daddy in the garage.

Not sure about his first real bath.





 
The three guys.




On the first official day of spring, they built a snowman...


... And then it just kept on snowing. It's still coming down.
