What's new?

In all honesty, not too much! But here's the rundown.



Max seems to be experiencing the biggest life changes these days. He can now do this:

No steps yet, but I think they're coming soon!He's also sprouted a tooth. Just one...if you squint really hard you can see it.He's everywhere and into everything! Emptying cupboards, tearing apart bookshelves, and destroying train tracks and lego creations designed by his older brother.




Sam continues to talk and talk. His favorite phrase of the week: "I'm a way good HOOKER." Referring to his new found ability to hook his trains together all by himself. What did you think he meant?!




He's also teaching us patience while testing the limits again and again.

And as for us...

Eric's gearing up for part 2 of Step 2 this week. That about sums up his life right now.

And me...I'm getting ready for the craziness that the next few months will bring. Some of which will include hopping from Utah to North Carolina to Iowa, being husbandless for a few weeks at a time, and staying with family for a month!

Life is good!

Standing! Wow! It makes me nervous (& excited) to hear what Max is up to because I know Willa will be there in just a couple months.

Hooker...LOL. Kids say the funniest things.

4th year is such a great year (minus having to be husbandless for some of it). Have fun.

I miss walking group and all of you. My ward here doesn't compare to the Toledo ward.

I'm so glad part of the craziness in the next couple months includes time in Utah! Your pictures are beautiful...of course they are your kids, so what do you expect? But you're such a great photographer! I'm so impressed!!

Such sweet pictures! Sam is the cutest train hooker I've ever seen! LOL

Your photography is always stunning, Lindsay. And that scowly face of Sam's is perfect for a train "hooker."

My goodness, your pictures are amazing! Maybe I could get you to photograph my kids while you are out this summer.

Sam looks like a toddler on two feet! Super cute! Speaking of two feet, your last post was darling with the block leg lengtheners. We could have used Eric's handy work at Disney World this summer, Braden could have gone on a lot more rides with a couple more inches!
