Summers in the backyard

We were all hanging out in the backyard. The light was amazing and demanded pictures. These expressions convey their current personalities quite well.

Number 2 is curious, with a touch of pain thanks to some unrelenting new teeth.

Number 1 is happy and mischievous, always looking for something to get into.

No. 2's B-Day

Someone turned ONE!

Moody first thing in the morning.

Enjoying some lunch.

Someone is a standy-uppy-baby.

Enjoying mommy's homemade whoopie pie.

Hey! Stop that!

Bath time.

Sledding

 Daddy with No. 2

 The whole crew.

 Mommy and No. 1.

 Mommy and No. 2

No. 1 all by herself. I love the combined look of excitement and terror.

SNOW!

Got to spend the morning playing in the snow. It isn't really snowman snow, so this is Piley the Snow Pile.

Puppet Theatre

I really need to add an audio file of No. 1 saying 'theatre.' Think a three-year old's take on an snooty British aristocrat.

Whole Family

These two images were taken at the exact same time. The top image was taken by my dad on my camera. The bottom by my mom on her camera. Either way, it's a pretty damn cute family.
