A Month's Worth of Photos

These pictures are from two different cameras this time, so some of them are out of order.

Simon LOVES high places; one of his favorites being on top the cabinets.

Waiting for dinner to be ready.

Sleepy monkey

Helping Mommy crochet.

We did a little school.  These are items that were in the room that begin with the letter B.  (Notice the striped outfit on the baby.)

Baby Brother, Balloon, Boot, Ball, Bunny.  (Notice the striped outfit on the baby.)

Daddy brought his gas mask home from the guard.  Dassah got to try it on.

Time for another haircut!

After the haircut.

Simon has decided he likes the bristles on the broom.

 We went down to Becky's house because Kara, Lexi, Aunt Rachel and Aunt Liz were all there.

Just hangin' out.

All the cousins together!

Mmmm! Doughnuts!

Baby's are popular.

Getting to know Aunt Rachel.

Kara and Dassah

Aunt Liz!

Obi is getting good at grasping his toys.

My cute kids.

A funny expression

Look at that smirk.

Dassah didn't nap this day.  I went to put Obi down for bed and came back to find her conked out on the couch.

A dolly I made.

Dassah let me play with her hair.  She looks so adorable with her hair up.

A side view of her pretty hair.

We read the Bible story about Jesus feeding the 5000, then attempted to apply it.

Then we made a fish pond and went fishing.  Simon really enjoyed catching Dassah's fishing line.

Tangled up in her fishing line.

"Swimming" in the "pond".

Another picture of cute kids.

Tummy time!

"Let me join you, brother."

Simon is completely comfortable with us all, by the way.

Dressed up for church!

Cloth diaper

More tummy time.

"Sister, what are you doing?"

Daddy and Obi.  Obi is wearing a sweater I made for him.

A cute picture.

Wearing a cheetah hat I made this past summer.

Obi loves his jumperoo.

Dassah thinks it's fun, too.

A picture of Obi's sweater I crocheted.

New Year's and Life Choices

"What should I be when I grow up?  A tiger hunter?"

"Or a lion tamer?"

We adopted Elizabeth's cat Simon at Christmas.  Here is the first time he was comfortable enough to come out of hiding.

Dassah loves to play with her brother.

Daddy and Obi.

"Maybe I'll consider Oneirology." (study of dreams)

Look at the smile Obi had when Dassah sat down beside him!

Wearing the new boots she got for Christmas

Mommy and Obi

"Maybe when I grow up, I should be a football player."

Funny face!

So excited about the toys on his bouncy seat.

"Or maybe I'll be an Ornithologist." (someone who studies birds)

New Year's Day, we started painting the kitchen.  Dassah painted too, just not the same thing Daddy was.

We had homemade cinnamon rolls for breakfast on New Year's Day.

Mike bought me a beautiful cuckoo clock for Christmas and hung it New Year's Day.

Painting the ceiling.

About a week and Simon was comfortable enough to get this close to Obi, but still hid when Dassah came around.

"Maybe I can be a cowboy!"

"Or a race car driver!"

Dassah's riding the bike she received for Christmas.

Dressed "alike".  Both are wearing zip-up hoodies.

Riding the 4-wheeler Dassah got for Christmas.  Look!  Simon is comfortable enough to be on the same floor with her!

Mostly he prefers the safety of the basement when she's awake though.

"No matter what I am when I grow up, right now I just need plenty of sleep."

"And plenty of time to play."
