Static Electricity



This video was actually an accident, I always seem to have the video button on when I mean to be taking a still photo! Anyway, in the end, it caught the crazy hair better than the photo did! This was after rolling around on the fleece cover on our couch.

Christmas Tree Etiquette 101



Miles will now illustrate 'Look with your eyes'.

Catch and Release


These pics were actually taken before Christmas (12/13/11 I think. Sheesh, it wasn't that long ago and already I've forgotten!), a week before our Christmas break started. Isaac has actually been home with his parents for the last two weeks, enjoying a little bit of sleeping in and staying home. But, I digress...so, this was a little outing to our new Natural History Museum. It is gorgeous and full of hands on activities for kids throughout. The fish and water are located in an actual room devoted to little ones. There's a cave, some live animals/bugs in cages, this stream, costumes, a play garden and little activity backpacks. Lots of fun. I love that with the reflection of the flash, the fish actually looks like it might be real. But, the best part, it's indoors and has lots of ground to cover. Perfect for our cold, cloudy, inversion-filled winter. Yes!


Trying to get a shot at the archaeological dig site (which you can walk down into!!). Oh well, I did my best! :-)

Up, up, up

Merry Christmas!


Hope everyone had a wonderful holiday! Miles really enjoyed opening presents this year...a lot! We are missing family and feeling blessed to be close to family. It's a bittersweet day. Our love to you all!

Just for Fun

A little stroll down memory lane!








(this one was taken today 12/15/11)
I wish I had dates for all the other ones, I'll try to organize that, but today...no time! :-)

First glance

Waking up after his nap to find the Christmas tree in place and full of lights!
