Random Sampler

So after going through the most recent pictures of the kids, I realized I need to take more pictures of Abby.  So we'll get some good ones of her soon, but until then here's some random pics of the kids.  Enjoy!

And... he's up!

It's funny how even after two other kids, watching Evan learn how to stand and walk is still so awesome. This little guy goes over to the book case, pulls down everything that is either interesting or in the way, and hoists himself up onto his knees:


Then after opening the nearest drawer, and a bit of effort, he's up, and proud of it!

Day Laborer

This morning we busted out the clippers and saws and did some serious maintenance on our two trees in the front yard. The kids didn't help as much as they wanted to with the actual trimming, but Collin sure enjoyed the clean up. If he doen't become a track star or a super-cyclist, I think we might have a future lumberjack in the family!

I Love Costco

 


Costco is awesome and for so many more reasons than the 12 lbs. of baking soda they sell for only $4! I can feed my family for $6 and change, get two weeks of groceries in a single trip, and they give you free boxes. They say the boxes are to help carry the groceries, but we all know they are really meant for the hours of fun at home playing pirate ship, puppet theater and building the tallest buildings you possibly can!
