"When did he start using the computer?"

"I don't know. He's using the computer?"

"Yeah, he's playing an Elmo game on the Internet."

"By himself?"

"Yes. By. Himself."

"He's 3!"

"Evil genius."

Family portrait

The poor photographer who had to try to get everyone to look at the camera and Liam not to say "cheeeeeeeze" so hard that it looks like he's crying instead of smiling!

too soon?!

So, Addison has been doing this for the past two days. I actually caught a stand on camera finally! Enjoy!

two things that dan learned today...

1. 2x4x16 and windshields do not make good friends.
2. Lumber yards close at noon on Saturdays.

IT'S DONE!!!!

OK, we're so close. We just have to patch the siding on the house. But the deck is DONE!!! And we LOVE it!

Birthday Girl....

Ellison turned 2 years old today. Can't believe it's been that long. She is a sweetheart even when she shows her age. Much love to you, Elli-JJ...

Elli and the rest of the kids actually slept in this morning much to the surprise of those who tried to call to wish her happy birthday. But first thing before breakfast... OPEN PRESENTS!!!

Elli is thrilled with her new Dora the Explorer roller skates. She also got a Dora backpack from Grandma Ellie and Grand-Bob.
Here is Liam showing Elli how it's done... (I'm not sure he's ever roller skated before though)

Elli got a Dressy-Bessy (So cute in her vintage fabrics) from Grandma and Poppie Scott. This will be hours of FUN...


Here Elli is ripping open her gift from Uncle Matt and Aunt Julie...


Elli insisted on an Airplane cake. Jenna created the AIR-E...


Daddy came home early from work to go out with everyone to the mall for ride on the Merry-Go-Round, A&W fast food, and a trip to Build-A-Bear...


Elli wanted to sport her new cozy PJs from Grand-Bob and Grandma Ellie.


There of course was the cake...
