Are we having fun yet?

I don't know why this is underlining in blue but for some reason it is! Something one of the kids did to the computer I suppose. Anyway, these are a few photos that were taken just before Christmas by Greg's brother Dan. So, that brings us to December. Just a few more posts and I can be current with the "blog". The kids hung in there pretty well with having there pictures taken. I remember hating having this done when I was a kid, but there were 8 of us, and to get even one decent picture with all 8 took a long, long time!

Aunt Ali's knitting

The hat Ali knitted for Kathryn with her knitting rings for her first birthday (thank you Keary Ritchie for getting her started). It fit, but not for too long. Cristen will have to save this for the next little girl, which may be a while, since she is due to have a boy in Sept!

Quick glance at the leaves full of Crabtrees

You can see his tonsils!

The kids had a fun time playing out in the back yard with all the giant leaves this past fall. Nick loved it when Ali buried him under all the leaves.

Learning a new trick (back in Oct)

I had these photos from the same visit in Lexington with Cristen and Kathryn and had to put them on my blog cause they were so cute. Kathryn was almost 10 months old here, and I was sticking out my tongue and getting her to imitate me. She did a GREAT job!

Catching up

I am going to try to post a few pics from each month or so to get my blog caught up. These pics are from last fall (Oct 2007) . Grammy (me :-), Aunt Ali, and Uncle Nicholas met Cristen and Kathryn in Lexington on this beautiful afternoon on the grounds of Washington and Lee University. We had a nice time. Kathryn enjoyed watching and trying to catch bubbles, and Nicholas had a blast riding his scooter down the hill (yikes, be careful Nick!). Kathryn has changed so fast. She is now walking and her light brown hair has turned to blonde!

Eat your heart out, ladies!

I caught Nicholas sleeping on the sofa with his feet on the arm of the sofa which looked kind of cute, so I took several pictures, but the one that really got me was this one with the eyelashes! Eat your heart out girls! Well, at least we have mascara if we feel like messing with it, which I usually don't bother!
