Uncle Eric's last visit home...

...before leaving for Afghanistan.  :(  He seems to be doing much better with this news than we are. All of our family traditions just won't be the same until he is home, safe and sound, again!

Finn's new goal in life:  get whatever Layla has...or the camera.


Jonas swears he is going to WD40 these swings someday...

Fun Uncle Eric!!

Clapping on Papa's shoulders.



An almost-complete family picture (Lauren was working):

Layla, 2.5 years (30 months)


Layla has started doing this silly sort of smile where she looks all glassy-eyed and sucks in her bottom lip/teeth.  Fingers crossed that doesn't last long. :/

Finn, 11 months














Found on the camera:

Papa and Layla must have been having some fun with the camera a while back...




Tot Time:



Layla LOVES to take pictures.  Before the presses the button each time she says "Say, CWICK!" (for the "Say, CLICK" sound-bite in Dora.)  Good times:


What?

Mom?

Hey, Mom?

Um....

I want that!  Gimme that camera!

Please?

Sort-of-standing by himself



Crawling to get Aunt Renee with the camera...

So far away...

Giving up...




"Swides" as Layla calls them...



BOY did they have a disagreement over who should open the door, and how often.



Crawling all over stuff!

Layla took this picture of my arm and Renee.  She forgot to focus.  Amateur.
