Fixing, Hiding, Chewing, and Riding

Jonathan is hard at work fixing our deck table. He's quite serious about all of this "carpentering". Notice his tongue is out (evidence of a concentrating carpenter), he's wearing his hard hat (evidence of a safe carpenter), and he's using a wrench (evidence of a carpenter who is willing to try anything to fix what's broken!) Pay no attention to the hammer on the floor (evidence of a carpenter who really doesn't take very good care of his tools) and his Pooh truck parked very close (evidence of a carpenter who has a very short attention span and may need a quick getaway!)

Sunday morning, Jonathan decided it would be fun to hide in Daddy's bathrooom cabinet while wearing Daddy's robe tie around his neck. I think this is the first time he has actually accomodated me when I said, "Smile!" It's such a cute grin, don't you think? Oh, and never mind the tools strewn carelessly on the bathroom floor (evidence of a typical 2 1/2 year old flitting from activity to activity.)

Annisia looks so sweet in the cordouroy dress and matching tights from my dear friend, Debbie. She thought the horses were pretty neat, but the Legos were better to chew on.

"Mommy, I want to ride on you!" Jonathan loves to jump on us and get rides. It's a good thing he only weighs about 26#! Here's one of those rare photos of Mommy. Ladies, remember to have your husbands get pics of you with the kids sometimes!

Hey Darla,
It is a great to be reminded how important it is to have pics taken with our little ones! I have a ton of Fish and Daddy, but not so many of mommy and Fish. I just posted one of the whole family on our blog...so now I at least have one! :)
