climbing

Who needs a playground when you can just climb the retraining wall around the playground.

He doesn't seem to have a fear of heights...at least not like me.

He was inventing new ways to get up and down the retaining wall. Sky was a little frustrated that she wasn't allowed to join him.

ice cream at the town center

They thoroughly enjoyed their ice cream.

You'd think they were in Paris.

My very expressive little girl.

running girl

This is the treat I get every day when I arrive at home...; ) ; ) : )

doing doughnuts already

Uncle Dullah and Uncle Caleb, you are required to comment on this post.

super friends

The kid has Bat-Man, Super-Man, and Spider-Man on the brain. He is totally obsessed.

ryan's birthday party

deja vu but still cute

Sky was making a necklace for Nana Beth again. Look at how focused she can be on the task at hand.

lookin' like his daddy

I'm pretty sure I've seen a picture Adam at about the same age looking a lot like this little boy.

seattle

Pike's Place in Seattle - Adam and I both loved Seattle. We were lucky enough to have had four perfectly sunny, warm days.

THE ORIGINAL (yes, very first) Starbucks...located in Pike's Place.

strange gum from seattle

where is bobba?

beautiful Mt. Rainier

irrigation assistant

Aiden helping me put in flags by the sprinklers in preparation for some yard work. He took his job so seriously but he also enjoyed running through the sprinklers.

the merchant and the doctor

"Don't worry, okay? I just going to check your ear."

"You okay? You need some med'cine?"



Watch out, Molly...Sky's got some techniques too.


"Don't move, Aiden."


Aiden reading a customer's order for "two eggs, some bananas, coffee, apple sauce, and broccoli."


This little boy loves to play store. We use his old flash cards for the food items - bananas, fish, apples, etc and play money.

champe and caden's birthday party

Aiden and Sky had a great time at Champe (5 year) and Caden's (2 year) birthday party. I think they enjoyed the rope swing the most because they're talking about it non-stop. Aiden also went nuts over the awesome NASA gift bags.

saturday morning farmers' market

There is a clown that makes these balloon figures at the farmers' market. Aiden and Sky get a sward and that entertains them the entire time we're at the market.


Kettle corn...we get that every time too.


Sky with a mouth full of grapes.


That's us picking peaches from two giant piles...delicious, juicy, Pennsylvania peaches that we enjoyed just minutes after we arrived home.



Natalie is sad that now they call her "Natalie" and not "Nakalie"...just shows they're both growing up fast.


"Are they twins?" is a question I get all the time now.


Aiden giving Sky a powerful kiss.
