Caleb’s Black Eye

Caleb had a fight with our neighbor’s tramp-o-line and it won.

These first pictures were taken a couple days after it happened and the swelling had gone down some already. The last two were taken a few days later.

Elsie turned 1!

On Valentine’s Day we celebrated Elsie’s first birthday! Time flies too fast.

In the morning she opened a couple presents, one being her first baby doll stroller which she loves to push around. (She’s still learning how to walk, so she loves being able to walk behind this new toy.) After breakfast and presents she had a nap, then lunch, then later refused to take her second nap. So in the evening she was really tired and was ready for bed right after dinner.

BUT first we made her open a couple more presents. One was a doll, and she only held it long enough to poke it in the eye and stick her finger in it’s mouth before she decided it scared her and she pushed it away and screamed. We got through one game of red light green light with the boys. Then we quickly moved on to cake. She wasn’t impressed. She was probably wondering why she was sitting on the table with this sticky, gooey mess, and why I hadn’t let her go to bed yet.

Here are a few pictures.

The kids think it’s Spring

 

It is close to 50 outside, and I have my garden all planned, but I’m afraid the calendar still says January Sad smile

Look who’s learned a new trick!

Just a couple days ago Caleb ran in the kitchen to tell me that Elsie had pulled herself up to stand against the couch. She’s been working on it for awhile. We had to lower her crib a few weeks ago for fear she would pull herself up and tumble over the edge. She’s 11 months old now! I can’t believe it!

Caleb is 5!

It’s been over a month but I thought I would post some pictures from Caleb’s birthday. He had a pancakes and pajama party with 9 friends coming plus his brothers. It was fun (and a little crazy)!
