Christmas Picture Fail!

We tried to take pictures of the kids today for our Christmas cards. 

They weren't really into it!  (Could you tell?)  I think we got a few we can use though.  We had to bribe Parker to smile by yelling "Daddy has stinky feet!" over and over again in the front yard.  Our neighbors must think we are idiots!

Jon Went Hunting

And saw nothing but a skunk!  At least he was happy when he got home though!

Parker-ism

P: Momma, you please get me some candy?

Me: Sure, here you go!  (I handed him some of those old school candy sticks--you know, candy cigarettes that they don't call cigarettes anymore?  Yeah, those.)

P: What is this?

Me: They are candy sticks.

P: OH, OK.  (Parker takes a bite)  Hmmm, Interesting.

I just love this kid!

Elliot's 2 Month Stats!

Elliot went for her 2 month appointment today.  She is 22" long (45%), and weighs 11lbs, 5oz (60%).  She is right on track developmentally, if not a little advanced!  She is sleeping through the night (And has been since about 3 weeks) and she is smiling like crazy and starting to coo.  She really is a joy to have around, and I can't imagine how we ever survived without her!

Parker-ism

This is how the conversation last week went down:

Me: Oh Man! (I had dropped a cup while trying to put it up in the cabinet)

Parker:  What Momma?  What?  What Happened?  Huh? What going on?  Why you say Oh Man? Huh Momma?

Me: I just dropped a cup Parker!  Geez, you little nosey turd!

Parker:  OH, OK you big old TURDHOUND!

Happy Halloween!

I'm A Cowboy!

We get that statement at least 5 times a week, and look up to see this.  I especially like the fireman snow boots with the mutilated hat and diaper.  I'm sure John Wayne rode into town looking just like this!
