Whale

I was really impressed with this picture that Parker drew of a whale--I can really see the whale, can you?! I think he even drew gills on it :)

T.I.R.E.D.

Deep in the depths of exhaustion. We had a really fun but super busy Sunday--started off with a birthday party for a girl from Parker's preschool class, then came home for a photo shoot with our sister/in-law Diana, who is an awesome photographer. She flew down from Northern California just for the day to take portraits of the kids and the whole family--we laughed a lot and hustled to get as many different photos done as possible before dark. I can't wait to see the results!


I've been fighting a nasty cough for over a week now, which combined with getting up four times a night with Levi (and rarely getting a nap) is just really grinding me down. It's bitterly ironic that while we've tried to be really conscientious about not having Levi around too many people in his first weeks, to try to keep him healthy, the person that he has to be closest to is constantly coughing. I'm really, really hoping that he and Parker stay healthy--Jared is already the next man down. 

Daddy and Levi

O Christmas Tree!

We went to our favorite Christmas tree lot this weekend to pick out our tree. We gave Parker Jared's GoPro video camera to record his experiences--we tried putting it on his head first (it has a strap that goes on your head just like a headlamp), but it kept slipping off. So Parker carried it around with him in his hands, and had so much fun filming his view of running in and out of all of the trees like a crazy evergreen maze. He and Jared played a lot of hide and seek until we settled on a nice big Douglas Fir. 

Bright Eyes

Levi has really woken up to the world in the last week--you can tell there's someone home behind those eyes :)

November 22, 2010

I found this photo that I haven't posted yet, I thought it was a cute one (except for the pile of laundry looming behind us!).

Another Weekend Ends

First off before we get to the kid stuff I want to let Santa know that there is a lightly used 23' Parker for sale that would look great in our driveway.


Now to the Kids. I can write about all the little stuff we did at the beach but I think this pic tells a good story. This sand pile was from just one shoe!


Parker wanted to eat broccoli for a snack. He helped himself.


kitchen tile progress. I layed up another 6ft. Still need to finish one edge, seal, caulk, grout, seal again and then start on the stove side of the kitchen.
Cut, wash and dry in the toaster.
