Tornado!

We finally replaced our broken camera! Here are some pictures from a few weeks ago (pre-drop) and some from the day of the tornadoes.











More pictures to come. Evidently pics from the new camera are 20 times the size of those from the old camera. We have to figure out how to compress them so that uploading them to the blog takes less than an hour and 20 minutes for one picture.

Easter Time

Baby girl number 2 at 19 weeks. From crown to rump she is as long as a large banana!


Belly at 21 weeks.




Brunch with our sweet neighbors: Torr, Maddie, and Abby


Our buddies Tami and sweet Brooklynn






Feeling little sister kick. Later this same day the baby kicked so hard that Ellie yanked her hand back and pulled down my shirt. She hasn't really been in to feeling little sister move since.


Dressed like an Easter egg for her egg hunt at school. Ellie participated in FOUR hunts this year!


Using her tools to help Daddy hang the curtain Mommy made for her room.


Looking like the Easter Bunny :)


Ellie had a little mishap with the camera. As a result, it is currently out of order - thus, the tiny iPhone pictures. I should be back in business with lots of picture taking starting tomorrow! We're headed to the beach this Friday and should have lots of good pictures when we return :)

Tools and Leotards

Cashing in on Christmas! Ellie got two Christmas presents that we are finally putting to good use. First was some Christmas money from Grumpa and Maw Maw that we wanted to use for Gymnastics. She had her first class today and LOVED it! It's a "mommy and me" class which means that I get to semi-participate. She was a little timid at first and not so sure of Miss Emily, her teacher, but she warmed up in no time at all. We both had a blast. The teacher in me loved to watch Ellie listen to instructions, follow directions, and smile with pride when she was able to do the activity. The second Christmas gift was a toolbox and tools from Aunt Ann. Now that it's warming up outside, Ellie has found lots of things that need fixing. She likes to follow Daddy around and tinker with things.

Watching Miss Emily demonstrate the obstacle course.


"Walk like a bear!"


"Arms out like an airplane!"


"I'm like Brian Boitano!"





Ellie loves to stand underneath the maple tree and let the "helicopters" tickle her when daddy shakes the branch.


This wagon needs fixin'.
