Veda J 8 Months

Christmas 2010

We are overwhelmed with spoilage at the Smith house.  By the time we got home from Steve's parents and my parents, Sawyer was no longer interested in opening presents... until we started opening presents.  :)

A very popular gift is the IPAD that Steve surprised me with.  Sawyer and I have been showing off the cool apps all over the place.  I even had to have a talk with one of my students at school who shouted "I call the IPAD!"  "The Monster at the End of this Book" clearly gets the most play, at least once a day at bedtime.  Hopefully Sawyer won't lose all interest in real books...

Veda is 7 Months Old!

...and big enough to sit up and play blocks with the boys!

...and big enough to eat sweet potatoes and even try to feed/gag herself...

 Just look at that sweet face...  :)

Timeout!

Watch out, that nutcracker ornament is an ornery one.  Sawyer has put him in timeout many times now for biting.  In fact, the other day, three of those pesky things were in time-out together.  Ask Sawyer and he will tell you that they we are crying because they "wanted" him.  I asked him what was going to happen when they got out of timeout and he informed me that they were going to bite again...  Sounds like the timeout isn't doing the trick!  :)

Not my proudest moment...

Hmmm... think she was tired?

6 Months Old and growing fast!

Halloween!

Sawyer thinks Daddy should handle the messy stuff....

So many adorable pictures... Where to start?

Daddy's pumpkin carving skills at their finest!

The crew all dressed up.

Tough Guy!

First stop... Daddy.

The end of a good night... Halloween #1 is a success!
