My happy 3-year-old.
My cute 8-month-old. (Eating grass.)

GOSH I LOVE this one. Soooo beautiful. Makes me just have the 'awwwwww' feeling. I could look at it and look at it.


I love the arm around Ethne's shoulder. So sweet. Ethne's face is pretty adorable too.

Ethne's such a spaz these days. When Elena was here Brett and I were shocked at how mellow she was. We painted the front of the house, and Elena sat in the same spot the WHOLE hour and a half, just chilling and chewing on some grass. Ethne, on the other hand, kept crawling up to us, pulled herself up the step, whined and cried to be picked up and played with, then would be happy and excited when we played with her, but none of that keeping-herself-occupied stuff. And lately, her favorite thing to do is to SCREAM at the top of her lungs when she's excited. We were at the store buying some special 100% nylon pants for Brett's Scout trip to Boundary Waters in Minnesota, and Ethne was excited to get into the dressing room with the big mirror and she kept SCHRIEKING sooooooooo loud!!! Crazy head. We always say "Screamer no screaming!" like from Dora the Explorer. :)
