Recent Photos

Here are a couple of recent photos.

Walker has been experimenting with the swing set lately.  This is one of the more dangerous configurations he's tried.


A couple of weeks ago, we went to wish Geneva happy birthday.  Findley was so excited to see her.  This is a great photo of all four ladies.


Findley went digging through the costume box and found the monkey costume that Walker wore for his first Halloween.  It fits her perfectly!


For pajama day at school, Walker chose to take his largest stuffed animal. And yes, the bedhead is intentional. Of course it is. Really.

Recent Conversations

We sometimes wish that we had a voice recorder going at all times in our house, because the kids say things all the time that crack us up, but we somehow can't remember them a day or two later.  Here are a couple remarks that Mama wrote down before she forgot them:

Mama: "Findley, please don't touch that blanket.  I need to wash it because there is pee-pee on it."

Walker:  "And boogers."

Walker: "Mama, you're like a dentist because you are doing things that I don't like."

Halloween Costumes

This year for Halloween, it took the kids a long time to decide on a costume.  For a while, we were going to have two Batmans, then two Spidermans.  Eventually, Walker settled on Buzz Lightyear.  Of course, Findley wants to be whatever Walker is, so she wanted to be Buzz Lightyear also.  Fortuntately, we were able to convince her to go as Jessie.  Their costumes got a lot of use this year at school parties and wearing them to friends' houses.

Here are a couple of photos from the first night they tried the costumes on.







Then, before the night was over, this happened.
