a few more pics...

Here are a few more...

Chris sent us a "Little Einstein" music box to go along with a handmade blanket for Jackson that almost perfectly matches the color scheme of Jack's room. And she sent a Bath and Body works kit of smelly stuff for Jodie.

I apparently wasn't good enough to get a gift. :)

Oh, and picture of Bubble head Riley thrown in for good measure








Pics from the Park!

we went over to the school today, to enjoy the nice fall day. I, of course, took pictures. You'll notice the one where she's climbing the top of the ladder... she did that all by herself! We were a bit scared, but as a Dad, I'm willing to let her try. She did it several times!

School picture time!

I know I've taken some good pictures of Riley, but this latest school picture is a classic!

a few new pics...

Three weeks ago tonight, my friends at the IFC threw me a surprise diaper shower. At a bar, yes.... but still. Anyhow, amidst the cake, and diapers (which we have plenty of) and the cake and the beers... Starr and her hubby (I assume) got this blue "It's a boy" mylar balloon.

It's still up, albeit weakly. I don't have the heart to take it down. I wanna see how long it will take to finally go down, or before the cats eat it.






Plus, Aunt Pam, Uncle Brian and Cousin Tyler sent packages for the two kids, and today Riley got her "Big Sister Dora." She played with it pretty well. Then it was time to play with Jackson. Here are a couple of pics of that.

The return of Baby Mohawk!

and a few other pics.

This is Riley at about 3 months.





Here's Jackson at 6 days.





And here's a few more of the Helper Big Sister. She's such a poser now.
