Look where I found Noah today...

Okay, just kidding, but I went looking for Noah today and here is where I found him! He somehow climbed up on to the toilet so he could play with the baby wipes...what a monkey!

Working hard...

Lyna LOVES Michael's computer (even going so far as saying Daddy's computer, a MAC, is better then Mommy's computer, a PC. Unfortunately for Mommy, I think she is right!). So, here are some pictures of her "working" on Daddy's computer and talking on Mommy's phone.

Noah + Yellow Crayon =

Luckily they are non-toxic!

Lyna Health Update...

As some of you know, Lyna has been having stomach problems for about a week now. We ended up taking her to the ER last night and it turns out she has a bladder infection. They gave us antibiotics and some medication to take for the cramping. Hopefully she will be back to 100% soon!

Thanksgiving 2007

We hosted Thanksgiving this year at my mother's home (she was out of town on holiday in Hawaii!). We had a lot of fun and were glad to get to see family. Here are some photos from the weekend.

Here is Noah the day before Thanksgiving. He had found a remnant of his sister's oreo cookie...

Here are some pictures of the kids and Grandma Kathryn (in their Thanksgiving outfits). I did not get any photos of Grandma Marian with the kids, not sure why, so hopefully someone else got some!! (Oh and sorry about the smudges on my camera, evidently my lense was dirty)


Here is Eli and Noah. Noah really took to Eli, he loved getting to play with him!

Here are the cinnamon rolls I made for breakfast Thanksgiving day. They didn't really look like cinnamon "rolls", more like cinnamon blobs, but they tasted good!

Here is Noah "helping" me cook (don't mind me looking awful, I hadn't gotten ready yet)


And here is what happens after Thanksgiving (while I do the dishes lol)...

Thanksgiving Outfits

I made some outfits for Alyna and Noah to wear on Thanksgiving day, so I thought I would post some pictures...

Love these diapers...

As most of you know, we use cloth diapers at home, but I have found it difficult to use cloth when we are traveling (like now, we are staying at my mother's house for Thanksgiving). So, I decided to try G Diapers . These diapers are kind of in between cloth and disposable and the disposable part of the diaper is biodegradable (and flushable!), which is awesome! And I can use the G Diaper covers with my regular cloth diapers, another plus! We tried them on Noah last night and the fit is great...they also velco in the back so little hands can't undo their dipes! So, I will be using these while traveling and when we are out and about. I am so excited to have found them! Here are some pictures of Noah in his new dipes!!!

Cheer Power Competition

Here are some photos and the video from today's cheer competition. Lyna didn't do as well as last time (I think it was way too early for her, we had to wake up at 6am to get there and she is NOT a morning person), but she still did great and we were very proud of her. It takes a lot of nerve just to walk out on a stage like that!! She got a great trophy this time (bigger then that last time), that she thinks is pretty cool!
I am going to try and add the video later, I am having technical difficulties right now.

Playdate!!

Today, we went to the Omniplex to have a fun playdate with our friends Blythe, Banton, and Beatrice!! We had lots of fun and Banton and Alyna had a blast playing together! We love the Omniplex, they have done a great job on their children's play areas. Here are some photos...

5 Years of Fun!!
