FINALLY…

Some pictures…

First of all, I’ve been baking…Vanilla and Chocolate with pretty spring-colored cream cheese frosting. Oh, they were SO good!


I had promised pictures earlier of the Barbie Jeep ride…well…here are a couple. She took such good care of him while she was driving – see the arm around his shoulders and the stuffed animal for comfort? But the most priceless thing is his expression…she is obviously talking about something…and its equally obvious that what ever she is talking about thoroughly confuses him. So easy to see that understanding between men and women can be complicated right from the start, no?





Our boy has become QUITE the helper around the house…he’ll load the dishwasher if you hand him things (strictly spoons and plastic bowls at this point, but we have to build these habits early!!!) AND he will Swiffer…of course there is no guarantee he will get the corners…


Oh, and how is THIS for a hammy face – the wrinkle nose smile...it seems as though he is thinking, “Mommy – you are SO silly!”


The next few shots are especially for Grandma Barb and Grandpa Steve and “On Ellie,” because he’s playing with some of the things they have gifted him with…

First, the ginormous Leggos…when I’m in the kitchen, he drags the wagon full of them into the kitchen, dumps them out and goes to town…I’ve got QUITE the little builder…after Daddy took this shot, my comment was, “I kind of dread the day that he plays with SMALL leggos!”


When Jay was born, “On Ellie” gave him these two little LeapFrog toys. One sings the ABC’s and the other sings the 123’s. He has developed a HUGE love of turning them both on at the same time, holding one up to each ear and doing a little dance…its kind of the toddler version of headphones…


They are apparently WIRELESS toddler headphones, because they go everywhere – including on his new trike.


And one more for the road…Happy Easter – from Jay…


And the rest of us, too!

He is Risen!
He is Risen indeed!!

You are so right to dread the itty bitty Legos. I honestly believe they are somehow mating because we seem to have so many, many more than we've bought. I find them everywhere - under couches, in the dishwasher, in bathtubs and of course, wherever I happen to step in the middle of the night. I also think they grow teeth at some point.

Love the Swiffer shot - that has always been a big hit with our littler friends. It's never too early to start teaching them to clean!

What an adorable punkin is that Jay. Boy is he ever growing fast. Where did that time go? You were just pregnant like 20 minutes ago. Thank you for the pictures! Thank you also for the etsy link you sent me with the labels. I LOVE those! Yummo looking icing! Happy Resurrection Day to your precious family! : ) We serve a risen Savior!
