Life Lately

Damon loves his Aunt Al! These pictures are so cute.

I showed Rockwell some home movies from when he was a baby around his birthday. Here he is six years later.

He wanted to see himself at Damon's age, so we watched when he was 9 months. This is him watching himself. He thought he was hilarious! :)

I am loving Macey's Anywhere still. 2 weeks ago they added a bouquet of flowers to our cart to say thanks for being their customers. Not much can make a mother of young kids' day like someone grocery shopping for you, loading the groceries in your car, and giving you flowers. :)

Paul and Rockwell went to Family Night at Northridge. Rockwell got to show Paul what he does in computer class, do their own face painting in the art room, and listen to an Olympic bobsledder talk about working hard in life. Rockwell loves 1-on-1 time with Paul.

Tess thought this trick was pretty cool. :)

This seems to be the way Damon plays with toys now. Everything goes in his mouth. Bless everyone's hearts at church, but seriously why does everyone give babies things to play with there? They have to know it's going in the baby's mouth! Gross.

Our neighbors trimmed their trees and were going to throw the branches away. So Paul and the kids brought them to our house and chopped them up for firewood. The kids thought that was pretty fun.

Al's family have an adorable dog named Jackson now. Rockwell is very afraid of dogs and asks Al to keep Jackson in his "cage" while we're there. Tessa warmed up pretty quickly to him though. She tells almost every she talks to about Jackson and his white tummy.

Isn't he just the cutest?!

Tessa goes to bed before the boys. Every night, Damon goes over to Tessa's bed as soon as she lays down and talks to her for a while. It's adorable!
