4th of July

Happy 4th of July! Our neighborhood had a small "parade" for all the kids followed by a brunch. We live in the best, most family oriented neighborhood! It is great!


Erik was very excited about having his bike decorated with flags.

Where did the Chinese genes go?

When I was about 13 weeks pregnant I dreamt that I was going to have a strawberry blond baby girl that looked like me. She really doesn't have strawberry blond hair (it is brown with blond hair under it) but otherwise I think the dream was pretty accurate. What do you think?

These impressive photos were taken by our neighbor Irene Timm. Aren't they amazing?

"I Share"

Erik wants to share all of his toys with Elaina. He has handed her his golf clubs, baseball, large diggers, etc. He doesn't quite get that large diggers weigh almost as much as she does. I love that he wants to share everything with her though.

In the photo below he was sharing his new snack cups with her.
