Boring Video that Only this mom loves...

but if you have 6ish minutes to waste...look for these things that I personally find hilarious.

1. Every time I pan to Lily...the way she is rummaging through her lunch box of toys.
2. Ian slamming the kitchen doors.
3. Ian announcing his need to use the poo poo facilities at the end.
4. My soup slurping sound effects.
5. Lily thinking she is actually going to get real Chicken Noodle soup.
6. Ian's Chicken Noodle soup having everything but chicken or noodles in the soup.

This Week In Lily's Mouth....

I like to, jump and kick --- I'm 6 months old!

"No, I don't want your blue hair in my mouth"

...said Ian, when Uncle Thomas asked if he wanted to ride on his shoulders.


I begged and pleaded and Uncle Thomas agreed to bring him and Griffin to come play with us. They spent the night and Ian had a party sword fighting all night. He learned several knew techniques....which is something he really needed. Lily was pretty nice to them too.

Sleep Over!!!

Betsy and the Boys spent the night with us last night while our husbands were gone. Here are a couple pictures from our party!

We Crack Each Other Up.

"Sin will Find You Out."

That's what I was told by a very serious Ian while I thought we were watching a nice show of Charlie and Lola. I don't remember what sinfulness I was thinking, that God thought I needed to be reminded by a little boy. I'm not even sure what it means...but thought I'd pass it along to all.

My Halloweenies....Power Up, Hook!

I couldn't decide on what they should be this year....so I roped my mom into making 2 sets of costumes. She didn't make the Red Ranger costume...but the rest she made while I was in Springfield. I think they turned out too cute! Lily's more of a natural Power Ranger than Tinker Bell, I think.

Movie Night

About 2 times a month we sit down and have a movie night. This was the first movie night that Lily has been able to enjoy with us. She liked the eating part best. She'lll be glad when she can partake of the popcorn and candy also.

What I love about Tuesday's and Thursday's

I may have to play castle and power ranger most of the day...but nothing beats lounge time with him. We had a rough start with the beginning of the 3's but it has smoothed out nicely. I believe I have Lily to thank for that. He insists often that he is growing and that he will be a big boy like his dad. I sometimes make him promise that he'll stay sweet to me and Lily and that he'll never talk ugly to me. He looks at me like that is the most ridiculous thing he can think of doing....as if he'll never be a teenager. I need to record him promising. When his teeth start falling out...I think I'll shove them back in...

Ode to Ang

My best friend growing up agreed to let me take photos of her beautiful girls while I was in Springfield. Click Here to see them.

Angie is one of the most genuine and kindest people I've ever met. We became friends in 1st grade. God has always blessed me throughout my life with these sort of friends. We became "Best Friends" in school and later found out that we lived in the same neighborhood. My mom didn't let me loose much so I actually thought I was lost going to her house for the first time. (our neighborhood only has 3 streets) We were best friends through elementary, junior high and high school. She is hilarious...I rarely think people are as funny as that. She's the kind of friend that when dared to moon the next passing car...will do it willinging. Everyone should be best friends with her! Her mom became like a second mother too me. We shared BFF Necklaces, lockers, carpools...everything but boyfriends. I never thought hers were good enough for her, until her now husband came along. She actually found someone who, what I know of him, is just as sweet and as genuine as her. I rarely see her and I enjoyed seeing and spending some time with her girls, Sydney and Hannah.

Another From Ian...

Betsy and I are no longer an item in the photography business world. The break-up was mutual. We've decided to just be friends. She'll always have a special place in my heart. Click The Bearer of Boys blog to the right to see what Betsy will be replacing her time with. I'm continuing for a few months and then will be taking a break until Lily can stay with Dad or anyone else with out causing a scene. I'm thinking the magic number for her will be at 10 months. But please schedule an appointment with me soon! I've got partners to buy out and websites to save for! Throw a photo party or two!

I do want to thank our friends that have supported us so much these past 2 years with client referrals and doing photo parties.
