Janey Stands...

And gets a visit in her crib.

"no mom, she puked."

Was Christofer's response when I said "oh look, Janey spit up." Actually, I said "she syruped" because up to last week, he called spit up "syrup." I guess now it's just plain old puke.

He is also obsessed with pointing out "crumbs." Chip off the old block.

Try as I may.

I am just not sure I can do the two blog thing. I am not abandoning this one yet, but I might have to. If you don't see updates here, check over on the other blog. I am pretty sure that's what I am leaning towards... sorry.

Procrastinating.

Don't tell his father, but sometimes I let him jump on the bed.



My calm demeanor and mystical beauty has cast a spell on them.


Until Janey realizes "hey, she can't keep us in this cage forever!"


"Oh, no, maybe she can. Dammit. Why can't I walk yet?"


"Mama, vait... I don't have to sleep in Janey's crib again, do I?"

Posting out of order.

This was SUPPOSED to be a post about our wonderful day at the Museum of Science, but I took so many cute pictures of Christofer and Katherine that it will take me a few days to pull together the best ones to show you. So, because I took NONE of Janey yesterday (well, none that came out), I shot a few this morning.

She is such an awesome little girlie. She can stand if I prop her. She is just beginning to figure out the stomach thing (though I think it will be a while until she can crawl). And she is SO super awesome at pilates. I could just eat her up.

I love her. I love both of them. So much.

In honor of a photographer whose blog I visit quite often, I decided to start a "50 Things I Love" list about the kids. I hope it grows to more than 50, I hope I can continue it for a long time. If you want to see what I've added, click on either of their names on the right, under categories.

Proof She Smiles.

But only for a minute. No, that's not true. She smiles a lot. And she coos and screams and jumps. But I think maybe she's scared of my camera and that's why she always looks a little serious in photographs.



This one, on the other hand, gave up smiling for me a long time ago.






This was taken on Trevor & Denise's roofdeck, after a simply fabulous brunch that required a nap after eating.

I don't post enough...

shots of them together. I don't take enough shots of our family together. I know I need to fix this.

Stop the Press.

Shut the front door. Hold on to your hats.

Christofer peed in the potty. And it was YEWOW.

That is all. Carry on with your day.

[yes, i did contemplate posting a picture. no, i didn't actually take one].

I am having a canvas contest.
