Do you see it?

Everywhere I go people are always exclaiming how much Jason looks like Christian.


I see more of Joseph in him. What do you all think?

First Stitches

Yesterday Joseph was leaning forward in his chair at church and fell forward onto another chair. After a 3 hour urgent care visit, he is the proud barer of two stitches.

Jason LOVES the dishwasher!

Joseph lost his 2nd tooth. This time he wrote a note to go with his tooth under his pillow. He asked the tooth fairy if he could get money but still keep his tooth.

Jason's the baby so naturally there are less pictures of him. I took some today to alleviate my guilt.






Lorelei and Christian were so proud of their tower.

This picture makes me smile

New Years

I've been terrible at taking pictures recently. Here's the happy crowd on New Year's Eve.

Merry Christmas

Welcome to Christmas morning at our house. Lots of wrapping paper, toys, and tears. Why tears you ask? We had lots of candy around the house that Christian kept snitching. The tears came after we forced him to spit out the entire roll of lifesavers he had stuffed into his mouth. He did this 3 times that day.... anyway back to the happy part of Christmas... toys and paper.

Derek opening a toy snake..... speaking of which, Grandma do not look at the next picture! :)


Lorelei opening her guitar, and the boys with their legos they've been asking for since we went to visit their cousins in September.
Frank is thrilled that he's about to spend the weekend learning to transform all the transformers we got.

Opening a present from Grandma and Grandpa McQuade

playing with the prsent from Grandma and Grandpa McQuade. I asked him what he was playing.... it was the book of mormon characters vs the transformers.

I caught a rare super smile from Lorelei with the camera.

I tried to upload other videos and it stopped working on me.

Happy Thanksgiving

This year we were lucky enough to visit some of our friends in Winston-Salem. Our kids played so well together back when Frank and their dad were in school. After 2 years without seeing each other, it took approximately 5 minutes to become reacquainted . They spent the next two days playing non stop.

When we got home Saturday night we decided to set up the Christmas tree.




Jason's discovery of the tree.

And this picture is for my mom.
