August through the lens

There weren't many separate occasions on the camera once I finally emptied the card, but there were quite a number from the few times it was out. Mostly just my adorable and uncooperative models :)

Aunt Who-who sent us a Christmas package! Even the mailman was very excited

A new favorite dress

Both kids are in love with the inflatable sword

Adorable elephant hand puppet (hand knit too!)

Hate it when people let their kids just run around in diapers, but this was in the process of dressing and he was just such a cute squish

Hen continues the ballerina obsession. I'm being "treated" to performances hourly

The sad banner. I had fun painting it though

Birthday morning! Hen was a big help unwrapping everything for Hud

Her gift to him;  a pink plush mirror. He loves it

Dump truck fun

Cake

Oh yeah, dig right in

This is good stuff

Sugar starting to kick in....

He ate the whole thing. Eeks

Oh you know, another attempt at a family photo

Horseplay

Farmer Boy

Always in the dirt

His new favorite person is Dad. Mom is a distant second suddenly. Much heartbreak every morning when Dadadadadada leaves. 

There's a story behind the fabulous paint job, but it looks all better now :)

Sorry, I know, very repetitive. But he's so cute, and I have like a bazillion of them.

My gorgeous girl 

She posed! With a normal smile! Miracles :)

Those eyes. That hair. Little toddler body in overalls. LOVE it!!!!

I said no haircuts for my boy until he was like 5, but the little thatches over his ears is starting to look mighty silly We'll see. I do love long hair on babies though

Marching along, looking for dirt

Mid dance

Singing. His favorite right now is "Baa baa black sheep" and he'll "baaaa" along loudly

Eating dirt

Trying to sneak over the embankment

Just got called back and is not happy about it (note the hoe behind him that he threw down in a fit)

Trying to sneak back again, checking to see if anyone is looking

Hen noticed! She keeps a close eye on him :)

Caught and returning
