Eva

This one is a little crazy. We took this picture of her in the summer. She is 20 months old now and has an appetite for destruction. She is into everything. Rachel does a great job keeping this one under control. Don't let her beautiful little face deceive you, this child was the mastermind behind our latest arson attack.

Eva loves to read books with her daddy, play with her big sister and hold onto mommy's leg all day long. Whateven she decides to do in life, Eva will be in control. Her personality of independance is already evident and she is so fun to talk to and to cuddle. I know that she will break a lot of hearts when she gets older.

Our Little Arsons

Last week I walked into the kitchen to discover flames shooting out of the microwave. The look in the kids faces that something was amiss in the house didn't happen until I pulled the extinguisher out and commenced to put out the blaze. The house quickly filled with thick smoke. I ran the children out to the van in the parking lot. And headed back into the house to open windows and start a fan. When interrogated by Davy, Leah admitted that her and Eva had decided to cook. Found inside the microwave were 2 sippy cups, a pretend hotdog, a doll, and 2 bouncy balls. Leah is very nervous that other fires are going to start but was most concerned that her toy hot dog was gone. She now knows that if there is a fire she does 2 things, yells fire then grabs her sister and runs outside.

Our Little Pumpkins

This was our latest outing to Pack's Pumpkin Patch. Here are the girls with my friend Shannons son Colby. I thought it would be fun to dress up the girls in fall outfits and get some cute pictures. As you can see they didn't cooperate much. Eva's favorite thing was being dragged around in the wagon. She kept yelling, whee, when we went over all the bumps. Leah was in the search for a perfect small pumpkin. She ended up finding a funny shaped one which she calls a coconut. Last night she tried to sneak it into bed with her.

Rachel is Cute, Davy is Bald

Thanks Davy! It was his idea to start this blog. Actually now that we have it started I am having fun. Hopefully some of you will actually look at this and if not it is for posterity.
