We're back online with a new digital camera and the kids couldn't be more thrilled. Actually I'm pretty excited about it too, but the kids are glad that they can now see the picture right after I take it. It was so hard to explain film to them! On that same note...I was reading a story from my childhood to Ella Jane and wondered if she realized what the picture on the cover was. She didn't, and I told her it was a telephone. She very adamantly said, "no it's not!" I realized she'd never seen anything like that before; a phone with a cord and a dial that you have to, well, dial.
Went to our community wide yard sale this weekend and found bikes for both of the kids. Ella Jane's has training wheels so she's able to ride it but Matthew's does not so he needs one of us to balance him on it. I'm amazed at how strong Ella Jane has gotten in the past two weeks even with being on her tricycle. I tell her to use her muscles and she has delighted in showing me how she is pushing her muscles everytime she goes up our driveway. She's really gotten good.
Above are some fun new pictures...enjoy. The first three were taken today. Imagine that!
You look fantastic. Obviously you've found a great place to get your hair cut. The kids look great as well. What fun! Thank you for sharing your energy with us. I got it through the blog. I miss all of you! I really hope to see you someday sooner than later! Good luck in the next couple of weeks. Please give me a call if you are up past 9. Maryland Love,April
ReplyDeleteI love the pictures, especiall of you in the brown top and both kids are just so smiling, Ella Jane is even squiting. Great idea to "use your muscles" I bet she tries harder and harder each time. What a cute family. Can't wait for the pictures of them holding the new baby together. The picture of Matthew holding and looking at Ella Jane for his 2nd birthday is so indelible on my mind. What a prize.
