quick fix


i realize that i am terrible about taking pictures during the winter months. the lighting isn't as good, the colors aren't as vibrant, and really, we just do a lot of sitting around the house, which doesn't make me think of getting out my camera too often. so, while i have been bad about blogging for a couple reasons (instagram), the main reason is because i really just don't have that many pictures.

so, to give those grandmas a quick fix, i got the camera out this morning and snapped away for a while. nothing thrilling, just hanging out around the house. 


this boy is constantly on the move and i deleted about twenty blurry pictures like this from the ones that i took today. 









jonathan comes running when he hears the fridge open. he loves to explore and try to shove food in his mouth before i snatch him up and shut the fridge.









this is our everyday: the girls playing nicely together, when suddenly, jonathan bursts upon the scene and ruins their lives. diane likes to throw herself dramatically on top of whatever toy jonathan has become interested in and start sobbing and yelling all at once. madeleine is constantly saying, "mom! it's hard to have a little brother!" and then diane says, "yeah! why don't we have a little sister?"


lately, diane has been trying to make decoy towers for jonathan while they play with blocks. jonathan will walk into the toy room and diane immediately starts directing him toward the one she has doomed for destruction. "jonathan! over here! this is your tower! come play with this one!" of course, he always goes straight for the real thing.

more posts to come soon...

Fun to catch up on your blog! Ha ha, decoy towers. That's a great idea- too bad it doesn't work too well. I understand the panic though because we have the same thing over here. Baby boys are just destroyers, that's all there is too it. But they are cute.
