Homemade Studio

It's amazing what you can do with a blanket, a Boppy, and an open window.  Micah even said, "It's like the picture store."  I took these pictures at home a few weekends ago when the weather was kinda cold outside and I really wanted to get some pictures of Silas.

So, I realize these aren't exactly professional photos, but they're good enough for me.  I can see the flaws in them, but I can also see the sweet, precious child that I want to freeze in time.  

I'm really looking forward to enrolling in the photography workshop Tom got me for Christmas. 

 Of course, Micah had to get in on the fun too!
Gosh, he really looks like his daddy in this one!

Brothers

We may have posed them, but I'm pretty sure Micah likes being a big brother.

3 Months Old

This sweet face is 3 months old.

(Okay, he's really a little more than 3 months old.  I'm trying.  Having two of them keeps me busy.)


He wasn't really thrilled with posing.

Pinewood Derby


Last Saturday I finally got to attend one of Tom and Micah's Pioneer Club events: 

The Pinewood Derby

Tom spent the better part of the prior weekend building Micah's car and Micah helped with the paint job.  I think it was more of a competition for the dads, but the kids seem to have had alot of fun too.








Micah:  "Whose name did they call?"
Tom:  "Yours."
Micah won 3rd place overall.

He received a medal, a pinewood derby patch, and a 3rd place ribbon.
He was a very happy boy!

And we're very proud parents!

Hi There!

I just wanted to drop by to say that we have been SO BUSY lately!

 I have several thing I'd like to post soon. Real soon. I promise.

I hope this will tide you over. It's a glimpse of what Silas does in the bathroom while we get ready in the mornings. And a snippet of Tom chasing Micah around trying to dress him. Typical morning.
