Happy St. Patrick's day everyone! We hope you had a special day. The weather was perfect again today (at least this afternoon), so we spent much of the evening outdoors. Later on, we had a lovely time decorating a birthday cake for Granny Barry! Even though we can't be with you, we wanted to share in your birthday celebration a bit and let you know that we love you and are thinking of you on your special day.

Aghhhh...I'm so sorry all. I've not had the camera out in a very long while!! BUT, YIPEE!!! We spent the whole evening outdoors today!! The weather was beautiful and it was wonderful! Thank you Katie, Mandy, and Kylie for coming over (and for bringing us a yummy dinner!) We are very happy to be able to get outside again, so we will try to remember to bring the camera with us...

XOXO Us
Isn't he a handsome boy?!
 

This picture was taken a couple days ago when Seanie backed himself under the bed...again. No more folks...this little man LEARNED TO CRAWL TODAY!! I'm so glad I got to catch it. He started to crawl just a few minutes before I left for work. What a SMART BABY ; )
 

Look at how Momma put the patch on the wrong way?! GoOfY Momma... (Seanie is wearing a patch to help make his left eye a bit stronger...he needs to keep it on for 1-2 hours a day and he is VERY GOOD about it...he's VERY GOOD about most things...nice baby!)

So, today was busy. You are very likely wondering what the first pic is all about...allow me to reminisce ; )

For the last couple of weeks, when I've changed Kellan's sheets, I've asked him if he needed his "gate" (bed rail) or if I should take it down. He's always said he needed it...until today. We took his bed rail down and added a couple extra pillows to the edge of his bed to keep him from falling out. Well, nap time came and things got quiet upstairs, but rather than going to sleep, Kellan decided to EMPTY HIS DRESSER. I walked to his room and was confronted with ALL his clothes in the hallway. He has never done anything like that before and I couldn't help but laugh (while trying to keep a stern face). And the best part?...he was sitting peacefully on his bed reading a book (see pic). What a goofy guy. He helped with the clean up ended up falling asleep - eventually.
 

 

And later on tonight...the boys were both resting nicely!

Here is a video of Kellan from this morning. He came downstairs with his "cell" phone and I could not resist making a video...hope you enjoy it!

XOXO

A couple "old" pics of Sean - from the end of last week.



I love when I find little things like this around the house...that is ranch dip riding behind Ernie ; )

Hello Everyone. Sorry that we've been missing for so long. I've had two sick little boys on my hands and when they were sick, they were very grouchy!! I'm afraid there was no time for posting, but we are on the mend now and I hope that I will have more time. The camera has not come out much lately, so we will have some catch up to do...We hope you enjoy these pics!
Sean is almost 10 months old!! He went to see his pediatrician 3 days ago for a well child visit. Poor baby was sick at the time, but he's pretty much back to himself now. The report on his stats are as follows:
Height >100%
Weight >100%
We could have told you that...Sean is wearing some of Kellan's clothes from last winter...2T!! The rest are 24 months. He's a big boy and lots of fun!
Sean gets very mad when he backs himself into an obstacle.

...like a chair

Funny baby!

Pancakes with "cream"..."I love cream!!"

Kellan has enjoyed looking at the pictures of his lovely cousin Eve! He especially loves the picture with your silly glasses, Eve, and the one with your "good morning" greetings from your bed!

Isn't she so sweet!!

Too Silly!!

Meanwhile...Sean would LOVE to be able to crawl - forward!

A few more photos which are "past due"...I tried to sit Seanie down and he wouldn't bend. He was standing there for a while ; ) Below, you can also see Kellan throwing a toy frog to Sean who has his arms up...ready to catch it?! (The program would not let me fix the "red eye" problem...sorry)

It is really wonderful to be back online! Thank you Gramma Denno for getting the computer fixed and back to us so quickly. (Do you think it was a little bit about missing the pics of the boys?!) There is no way to make up for all the days that I've missed posting. My computer was out of commission, but it is back (It could use a bit more memory, but we are VERY happy to have it back!). It was not an expensive repair either, so that's good enough for me! : )

Well, we had a very busy week and I think that I need a vacation from my vacation! Right Lynn? We had a great time during our visit to Albany for a couple of days. Kellan had a really fun time playing with Connor, and Lily was a very big help taking care of Sean. It would take forever to post all the pictures that I would like to post so you are getting a collage instead...we are very happy to be back on the blog!

Kellan and I made a special Valentine's day treat...Sean was napping and so not represented here...the pic below is to make up for the imbalance ; )


XOXO Goodnight!

(Seanie loves you "this much!")
