Monster Truck Rally

Either that, or Eric is trying to set up some kind of
trap to protect us against monsters and burglars.

Maybe Jesus lived in dinosaur times?

Eric's Sunday School class decorated a 'candle' this week,
and the teachers complimented his artist skills...


...I'm not really sure what to make of this one, but hey,
not bad for a four-year-old!

Haircut, part 4

Took Emmett for his 4th haircut yesterday...
I'm pretty sure the screaming is getting worse instead of better.
At least it's (pretty) straight this time!

Skate Night!

Ice skating with Evan's elementary school.
I'm still in pain, but at least he had fun :-)

Fever time!

Gotta love the 4pm phone call to come get the kid with a 103 fever.
Thankfully, all was well the next morning...just a bug!

Kinda Scary

Not sure if it was the lighting, but Evan looks kinda scary in this one!

Working at home

Evan 'worked' at home with me today, creating a story online with a book-publishing kit he received for Christmas. So studious! And clearly working harder than I was, since I was taking pictures of him during this ;-)

Not-So-Sweet Potato

I'm trying to waste less food.
It's going pretty well, except for potatoes...
the gnarly skin and gray/white splotch scares me.

Boy in a Box

I swear I should have at least 3 more picture posts with Eric in a box...the boy LOVES to climb in these canvas boxes we have despite being told not to over and over and over again.


As you can see, he finally got out of the box, only to put it on his head :-)

Hop on Pop

We read this book at least 14 times a day...
I think I can recite it in my sleep, but this cutie is well worth it.

Evan made 'Student of the Week' in karate this week!
And he is testing for his blue belt at the end of the month!

Rhyming Dust Bunnies

This one of the new books in our bedtime story collection, and Eric loves to read it to anyone who will listen. It's hilarious when he says "No Bob, ... does not rhyme with ..."

It's Ooooo-ver

I wouldn't dare take pictures of the woeful Eagles fan after the loss,
but the house is still bleeding green :-)

Later Mom!


No, I did not put my seven-year-old on a train by himself...not quite willing to be THAT free range of a parent (yet). He's just hanging out in the back of a fire truck (at a birthday party, we did not do anything to deserve the fire truck coming to our house. Yet.).

Emmett, sit!

I'm sure our neighbors think we have traded our youngest child for a dog based on the number of times a day we say "Emmett! Sit!" But no, the two-legged cutie is still around, and using every opportunity to climb onto chairs (and tables).
