Family








Wow! I think I am going to post three times in one day. It is just so easy and I have so much to share.

I was going through all my digital pictures and remembered that I digitalized some of Mom, Dad, and Grandma's slides. I thought I would share them.

I will start off with Grandma's. She has a ton of picture slides and they are all very neatly organized thanks to Grandpa Jack. I only took a few home with me and put them on my computer. It is so fun to see Grandma taking care of Mom like Mom took care of us and now we are do the same thing with our own children, it makes me feel very grateful and kind of warm and fuzzy inside. God must really know what he is doing!








Here are the last of Grandma's slides. Iris just woke up so I will post the other pictures later.





Scott and TIghts



Grandma Kris got Iris the cutest scottie dog dress with the most adorable winter tights. The package came and I knew it was for Iris so I thought I would let Scott open it and see it before Iris got to. Iris is only seven months and I knew she wouldn't care, I didn't think Scott would be that interested anyway. I was wrong. Scott wanted to try on the tights, especially since I told them they had scottie dogson them. He was so excitied and so proud to have them on! (Maybe the mistake was letting him try on the tights in the first place!) When it was time to take them off and put them away before they got dirty, he got very upset and didn't want to take them off. I finally got them off, but with much tears and yelling.

The story doesn't stop there. On Sunday I gave Jeff the dress with the tights and asked him to dress Iris. As soon as Scott saw the tights he got very excitied and wanted to put them on. Jeff said no and tried to explain, but it was to no avail, Scott wanted to wear the scottie dog tights. Iris didn't wear the dress, no one wore the dress, it was too controversial! We will give it a few weeks, maybe he will forget?

Wipes


Iris loves the baby wipes. She gets so excitied when she is scooting around and finds a package. This is the photo in which I caught her not only eating the wipes but pulling them out. She thought it was great!

Welcome



I am entering the world of blogging since I could not keep up with My Space ( it had too many ads for our slow dial-up). I am going to do this mostly for my family since I live so far away from them. Enjoy!
