Our Birthday Girl! :)

Right before her bday party -
The Gorgeous Princess! Julia's very first taste of chocolate CAKE!

She was pretty serious about her cake, didn't really like everyone looking at her much, BUT never cried. :) She had a great day, got a lot of nice presents, beautiful clothes, fun toys, and slept - well - like a baby that night! xo

OUCH!

Poor Shane got an eye infection. Luckily, he had no other symptoms other then the red puffy eye. He was quite happy actually. A quick visit to Dr. Sherman & some meds and he was back to normal in 2 days.

A bunch of pics :)

Eric and Shane captured a grasshopper. Shane was SO fascinated w/it!

Our friends Julie & Anthony came to visit (from WA state) with their kids! This was the first time Julia & Claire met. Julia was happy to meet Claire, she really was. The reason for her 'what you talkin about Willis' face is Anthony was doing something silly to make Claire smile, which worked. For Claire. LOL We had a nice visit and really miss seeing them!

Our big boy about a month ago, at a bday party. It was frikkin FREEZING outside that day. OK, well. By 'freezing' I mean about 47F. With the wind, that IS cold here. So, zip it, my east coast peeps. ;) I LOVE this pic, he is so adorable.

Julia's hair is SERIOUSLY out of control. This is what she looks like if she goes to bed with damp hair. oh, who am I kidding. This is Julia every morning.

Little Miss Don King. Only WAY, waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay cuter.

"Hey Shane, can you get your sister something to play with?"
