Cute notes from my Gabe!
I bought a Bumbo seat for Ian at a consignment store. The next week a friend wanted to give me her old one. Grrrrr. Ian tolerates his seat fairly well. Elisa loved hers so much she practically lived in it!
A nice friend of mine gave me tons and tons of NICE clothes for Ian. Most of them were 12-18 months. He is approaching 12 month size alarmingly fast! There was just so much stuff, I decided to go through EVERYTHING--that is, these clothes and Gabe's old clothes in the same size. I thought I would be emotionally attached to Gabe's old clothes, but surprisingly I wasn't the bit attached. I was actually happy to see it go. I mean "go" as in give away. Some to goodwill, but most to my sister Lisa because her boy Aiden was/is in 12-18 month size. So now Ian has plenty of really nice, stylish clothes to wear when he grows a little bit more. What's great is that I have that size in both summer and winter styles, so whether he keeps growing as he has been or levels out, either way we have him covered!
Grainy and dark, but still cute!
One of my favorite pictures of Ian
Om-nom-nom!! Teething!
Elisa and a slobber spot on our couch. This is why we can't have nice things.
An outfit I bought Eesa online. $19 shipped, 4 pieces. I couldn't resist!
We don't go to the library very often, but when we do, there is a man in a terrifying blow-up costume. Elisa wouldn't go near him. But she did enjoy coloring a picture and drawing on the chalkboard. The man in the terrifying blow-up costume was not in her line of sight when she was at the chalkboard.
Reading a book to miss Elisa
The mother-load of buffalo-flavored wheat thins. Nauseating!
Gabe is exceptionally creative. He made this Mario out of Legos. He's always working on some creative project, self-directed.
Church is exhausting. I wish I could do this, but alas, it is not socially acceptable for a grown adult to do so.
The same day, on the ride home! I don't know why they're so tired this particular week!
Elisa and Ian.
A video of Ian's cuteness:
She hurt her chin AGAIN!
A look into our un-staged, every day life. The kids are playing in their undies and the house is a mess. In my defense, all those clothes were for Ian. A sweet friend dropped them off; I was in the middle of going through them. Plus I was holding Ian!
And some more cute pictures of Ian, 3-months old, some 4 month pics too:
I (we) love, love, LOVE this little guy! He is so darling and sweet and adorable!
These pictures are all so cute! Nice Elisa drawings and flowers, dinner by Erik, Gabie love notes and Lego Mario, darling faces in 3rd picture of Ian in his bumbo seat, in the orange/blue outfit, and Sesame St. shirt and video (talking). Elisa is afraid of the blown up man because Erik was afraid of the huge dancing gorilla at a Hawaiian restaurant in SLC.
