No Reason Except New Overalls

It's true, I do take pictures each time he's in a new outfit! I developed my pictures two nights ago, and just since September 1st I'd taken 183 pictures. That's not excessive, is it?

Hockey Buddies

Daddy would say, "We're training him right!" Here the two of them are, cheering on the Penguins. (Alright, Daddy isn't cheering in the picture since the Penguins were losing at the moment, and Parker spent more time licking Kenzie's princess camera than he did staring at the bright screen, but I'm sure he'll get the hang of it eventually.)

"Buddy, You Not Eat the Blocks!"

I haven't posted in awhile due to a lovely cold that has sapped my wit, but this afternoon Kenzie came in, dumped the sack of blocks on the floor, and informed me it would be fun to play blocks. It was the most exciting thing I'd done in days so I took some pictures. Yes, I do need to get out more!
I was rather impressed with this in-action shot. It looks like the blocks are about to whack him right in the face but they actually missed. (Lucky!)

Books are for Hitting

Parker loves to look at books - he gets really worked up and hits the pages as fast as he can. I think he just needs to know how stories go, because his sister sure won't tell him. Case in point: last night we were making our third trip to Holladay this week (long story), and Kenzie was making all sorts of obnoxious noises in the back seat. (Parker was loving it, but Mommy and Daddy did not share the same sentiment). In an effort to distract Kenzie, I suggested, "Why don't you tell Parker a story? Tell him Cinderella." Kenzie quickly told Parker, "The glass slipper just fits." We were pretty impressed with her ability to sum it up in one sentence!

Sleeping Beauty Has Joined Our Family

Kenzie with our newest addition
She got to go to Build-a-Bear tonight after filling her potty chart with stickers. She picked every single bear, then finally decided on this one. I saw the Cinderella dress she'd picked out online, but to my surprise she instead wanted, "Sleeping Booty" (I love how she says that one). We figured the expense was much cheaper than buying diapers!

Parker Takes the Day of Rest Literally

You know me, I don't really need an excuse to post a picture of my little goobers, but Parker sure amused us yesterday. Chris put him down on the bed for a minute (apparently he makes a bad computer game partner and tends to whack the keyboard, crashing whatever vehicle poor Daddy was operating), but Parker didn't mind and just lay there, smiling, for a good 20 minutes or so.

Tagging is Illegal, You Know

I saw on my sister-in-law Hannah's blog that I'd been "tagged" to find the fourth picture in my fourth folder. That put me in my "Random Pictures" file, and aren't we glad it did? Here's my nephew, Daniel, in the file cabinet. Yes, IN the file cabinet. If you know him you won't even blink an eye in surprise, though!
