New look and old pics






Well here is our new look. I hate to toot my own horn but I'm pretty proud of myself. I have been checking out a bunch of other blogs (Thanks Tina) and realized we too could have a fun new look. After some tinkering for the last few days, this is what I'm going with. Hope everyone likes it.
As promised here are a few pics from the last month or so. The one of Christine with the pacifier is really funny because she has never used one, Thomas likes to play with them (don't ask) so she thought she's give it a go. She's right on the verge of running across the living room. She's still a little apprehensive but will walk 3 or 4 steps to get a toy. Thomas is gearing up for school in September. He's so excited he may burst (hope the enthusiasm sticks around for a good long time). I think it will be so good for him to branch out some.
The other cutie is our cousin "baby Ray". Thomas just thinks he is the greatest thing ever and would trade his sister in a second. I haven't been able to explain to him that in a few months Baby Ray will be into everything just like his sister.

Looking like Pop-Pop

There are some pictures of my Dad from when he was in the Marines and Thomas looks just like him here. Funny, he's such a clone of Art but every once in a while I see little bits of my Dad

With a smile like this

is it any wonder she's got us wrapped around her finger

Updates

No pictures today, just boring Mommy commentary. Boredom has set in big here...for Art & I not so much for the kids. I thought I might as well update the blog and spice it up a bit. Currently green is my favorite color. I have a ton of picture I have to upload. I've been so addicted to my new phone I've completely forgotten about all the new pictures on my camera.
The kids are just dandy. Thomas is really into baseball right now. Every free second Art has is spent pitching balls to him. For a three year old he's pretty good. He actually hits a good number of them, when he misses he gets all upset...it's so sad. He puts a great deal of pressure on himself when he can't do something well...I hope he relaxes a bit as he gets older, I doubt it, he is Art's little clone. Christine is her usual sunny self. Not walking yet, just crawling with lightening speed. She gets into so much, way more than Thomas did. She misses nothing and gives you a devilish smile. It's hysterical really. Along with her constant chatter, who knew a baby has so much to say. Well I better go attend to them, I'm not hearing much sound from the living room right now and as all you Mothers know, quiet children are usually in the most trouble.

These feet are made for walking

Okay the title is totally cheesy but, my little gal is on the verge of something big these days. We're expecting anyday she will be walking. We could be wrong of course, but she's very convincing. Here she is at the park with a push toy acting like a pro.
