Tea Party etc.

We finally have a new camera, not a fancy shmancy one like we used to have but this will do just fine and it does have accidental insurance. This sounds like I didn't mean to purchase this insurance but I assure you I did. I've been so happy to have a camera again. I have been somewhat puzzled on how to download them but I'll do my best. Here is a smattering of what has taken place since we got the new camera.

James makes the best tea.

Ellie makes the best faces.And messes..Naps are fun..And Cute

James loved helping clean up after the ice storm

A bad pic of their room post visit to Ikea

James does this a lot and Ellie isn't always so sure about it.

Boy does this ever bring back some embarrassing memories. :)

Praise

Today Mom and I headed down to Little Rock for what looks like our last visit for Ellie's hip. She was born with a click in it and we've been following its progress at Children's. As of today they couldn't find anything on the films and pediatric orthopedic specialist couldn't find anything out of the ordinary. Praise God!

I have a lot of thoughts. Some of them I don't know what to do with.

And then there were none

(Not actual camera)

About a month ago I was uploading some pics to sell some stuff on e-bay and I knocked my camera off the desk. It wasn't a big deal till I tried to turn it on. No matter how I tried I couldn't convince the thing to turn on. So this is my excuse for lack of posting. I have nothing on which to blame the month of emptiness prior to that.

Being Helpful

Today we returned home from staying at Mom and Dad's for the Holidays. I was changing Ellie's diaper and James walked into the nursery and asked "Ellie shooie?" I said that she was and he replied with "James get spankin moon" as he tottered off into the other room to find his wooden aquaintence. Hmmm...

The TaBoots

James loves trains so this week I took him to visit a Caboose at one of the parks in town. He loved it even though I was a little freaked out by the obvious signs that people had been living in it.

Baking Bread

This past week I branched out and made sourdough bread for the first time. It was tons of fun and James loved helping. Kneading it was his favorite part. He loves to cook you never know maybe I should have named him Basil. How could you go wrong with a chef named Basil?
