Fun Pictures

I thought that I would add a couple of pictures from the past couple weeks. I'm not so great at this whole blogging thing and I meant for this picture to be the last one since it is pretty much the result of the other ones. Brock took this on a Sunday afternoon when Aaron and I snuck in a quick nap (collapsed in exaustion).



I took these next couple pictures after church when the kids were still relatively groomed. What a family!



This last one is one of my favorites. Aaron works most evenings on his computer and Evie enjoys sitting with him and trying to type so we gave her Mia's toy computer to keep her occupied. It worked pretty well.

I love Evie's gimpy crawl!

Evie has such a cute crawl right now. She started crawling a week or so ago and today I was able to get a video of it before she progresses to a more normal crawl. Evie has been such a sweet and mellow baby, I am sad that she is growing up and now crawls around, stands up to furniture and gets into a lot more trouble. On the other hand she is so dang cute, how can I help but love her sweet gimpy crawl.

Our Parrot

We recently acquired a parrot. Actually we developed one. Mia has hit that stage where she parrots many of the things we say and so far it is pretty amusing (this is where you hear all the things you didn't realize you say). A couple of the things she says are not the greatest like when she suddenly says "I'm a dork" or "I'm annoying". I swear the kids must have told her the second but I will admit that I have called her a dork, in a very loving way of course. The other night she was stealing cookie dough and when I stopped her she said (in a very pathetic voice I might add) "but I'm a hungry monkey". My sister Becca's favorite time is when she heard Mia tell her brother, "that is a piece of junk". There are lots of other things she says that you can tell she is repeating from us and we have fun listening to our little parrot.
