John was burning a giant ant hill...and this reminded me of that Shawn Colvin song "Set the Prairie on Fire".

The Great Escape

Big sisters aren't the only crazy, funny ones:

Asa is quickly becoming a mess...standing in his crib, chewing on the dirty piece of plastic that was attached to the outside of the dishwasher whenever he gets the chance, and here you see....climbing out of the baby pool that we placed him in so that he wouldn't eat grass.

"Ahhh, aren't you so proud of me?"

Izalou is very creative, and sometimes expresses herself in strange but funny ways. I can't wait to see what she will come up with next...

1.) "Mommy, I painted my nails! (while you were all taking a nap!) They're PINK!" {sidenote: She put the brush back in the polish and put it back on the counter, with minimal damage done to the couch.} She did a pretty good job by herself; the pictures don't really do it justice.

2.) Adventures in playdough..."magnets".

3.) "Izalou, please put your plate on the counter." Thirty minutes later I came into the kitchen to find this...."How? I mean...HOW? There's still food on the plate!"

i have finally entered the world of "blog"...after several requests from friends that i create one. i don't really have time for anything else internet related, but hopefully my posts will be short and sweet. i love watching my friends' kids grow up, so maybe this will help bridge the gap that distance has created for us.
