i Caught

...Helen lending a hand with freshly laundered towels,













and then emptying the laundry room wastebasket. Guess how dryer lint looks on a baby with a cold?














...Owen helping Vanna select the correct letters. Wheel!! of!! Fortuuuuune!!! is one of Owen's favorite shows. This is both a motivator--Owen, finish your supper and then we can watch Letters!--and an annoyance--tear bursts at commercial breaks. He is now learning the sounds of the letters, and hits the correct letter on his Leapfrog bus when given its sound.



















...Helen's toe rest. Those poor little piggies have quite a job to do, helping her balance. They deserve an occasional break.














...and a dirt-covered Jason. That is Jason, right?

I can't believe you. Your husband's a mess, your baby is playing in the trash, and your toddler is sitting in front of the TV. :) Looks like my family. Except my child would be the one heading for the toilet. Roll of the eyes. He is also mighty handy at emptying out dresser drawers. Gabriel is currently obsessed with his Wacecah's (Racecars) and it's sort of a nice distraction when i'm trying to get something accomplished. Your babies are just the cutest. I loved Helen's dress.

Joyce, So cute! I loved the picture of Helen's toe rest. Suzanna does the same thing! It is so cute to take a picture of little things like that....because in a year you'll probably forget she ever did that. And like Helen Suzanna loves to "explore." This week she is walking all over....when I found her the other day she was playing in the toilet that William had just taken a leak in. Then decided to suck her thumb. G.A.G. M.E.!! Thanks for sharing what's going on down there. Miss and Love ya~

Toilet water. Mmmmmm. It's good for the complexion. Helen hasn't found that yet, and Jason's good about putting the lid down, so maybe she won't. (Hopeful, begging plea.)

By the way, by 'Racecars' I mean the movie 'Cars'. Just so no one thinks that I'm am piously telling you to get your child an activity. Because we like TV around here. :)

thanks for all the great pics. i love seeing updates and Karis loves saying, "baby" when she sees Helen. Jason looks like Jerry in that picture with his mustache and everything. I love that Owen plays W of F! What a kid. Ruby was telling me about that so it was great to see him in action.
