OK, one more...

Anastasia has a new game... "Hug Christopher" He hates this particular game. she thinks it is hilarious when he tries to get away.



Is it wrong to laugh?

We are homeowners!

OK, i know i am a few days (months) behind on the blog. i will get up to date. however big news today... We are homeowners.



Take a look!

Good Morning Grandpa!!!!

In the Old days, Adam and i would have started this by shouting... "To the Rescue!"

Now we just dump our kids on Grandpa. Literally. I think he might even be enjoying it...

Mmmmmmm... Blueberries!

Well, it took a few minutes for them to get it... but they picked and ate the bush clean!

Such Cute summer outfits!

What can i say? the tank and the little flower.

And if there are any cracks from the peanut gallery questioning which one is the tank they will be deleted forthwith!

postcard pics!

i was quite impressed with these first two pics, they look almost like the kinds of shots you get in those pre-made frames. Have i mentioned that they are cute kids?

i must add that these FAN-DAMM-TASTIC pictures were taken by mommy. Odds are good that if you see a great pic anywhere in this blog... it was taken by Mommy.

water... AND WE GET TO THROW ROCKS???

The things you forget about. throwing a rock seems instinctual... but even that you get to teach your kids

Ach that boy!

Christopher is not happy unless he is hanging onto something... like my face!

Hangin with the Grandparents

Visiting the grandparents.

It was my dads first time to meet the babies and Mom had not seen them since they were a few weeks old.

It was really neat going to places i had been many times, but this time with my kids.

Airmane! Airmane!

Well, with a little help from the grandparents, we managed to plop the kids on a airmane (Anastasia's pronuncation) and head on up to the wilds of Canada. We got lucky with all the online booking. Instead of having to jam them into our seats, (under two can lap sit) we managed to get a full row on a Quantas 747 from San Francisco to Vancouver! Yee Haa. an enjoyable first flight i do have to say. (with good Aussie beer for Daddy!)

Naked on the Couch

Simple secret to keeping babies happy... let them be Nekkid!

Anastasias first Haircut.

She did not seem to enjoy it that much... although the sucker went over big!

Babies first Pee Pool!

Did i mention that they like water?

We found something they love as much as water...

The Aquarium...



Although with semi regular visits to the Monterey Bay Aquarium, they could get spoiled. They loved it. what was funny was when Anastasia was pressed up against the biggest aquarium wall you have ever seen and a big fish swam by and it startled her so much she fell over backwards. They LOVED it.

My Country, Tis of thee...

Sweet land of Liberty!
