Videos-Mama.

At Nama and PawPaw's, we finally have fast enough internet to upload some videos. These span the past few weeks.

Put Henry and Sadie together and you're bound to end up with two wound up screaming kids. Sadie thinks Henry is pretty funny and Henry thinks it's fun to chase Sadie.




Henry really got into the Grinch Who Stole Christmas. He really likes it when they dress the dog up like a reindeer.



We wanted to post this video to show how loud it got at the Meyer's. But all the kids played well together. And June even got in on the fun. She was sitting right outide the playhouse door playing with a balloon and watching the big kids right before I took this video.




This is from the Lights before Christmas at the Toledo Zoo. They had a whole display of lights timed to music. It was great and Natalie danced to it.


We had a hard time upleading this video, so we posted it to YouTube because it was too good not to post. Here's how charming can be when he wants. And for those who are concerned about him, he's starting to feel better. Yesterday was the worst when you could tell he just felt crummy and spent the whole day crying and complaining. (He must have been 180 proof,he was so full of w(h)ine! Zing! But today he's been able to maintain his composure more. He did have a coughing fit that led to his barfing on PawPaw's new carpet. But we're glad it was Henry who did it first because he's PawPaw's favorite (maybe now the no food ban will be lifted!).

June is starting to develop a cough of her own, so hopefully Henry gets back to his charming self before she is overcome with the whines next.

Back home-Mama.

We made it back to Ohio without incident. Now it's back to taking care of kids and trying to lose the 5 pounds I gained over Christmas break. We were going to head back to Winston, but papa talked us into staying longer so we could watch the National Championship game on PawPaw's big screen hi-def tv.
Gugger must have been working the whole vacation because this morning she helped move all the silverware from the dishwasher to the bottom drawer. What a helper.


Henry had a pretty quiet day. He's got quite a cough and though he's not showing many other symptoms, he must not be feeling great because he spent all day playing with his cars on the table (so June couldn't get them). He was feeling well enough to spend all day asking for big glasses of milk and cookies because he "has a cough."
June took advantage of Henry's chill and turned up the cute. She now bumps noses with Nama and open mouth kisses Aunt Girl. She was dressed up in a really pretty dress, but after a really messy supper, she was stripped down to her tights.

Look at that big belly. We may be biased, but she is the prettiest baby EVER.

An action shot for posterity.

Look at how all of the ornaments are moved up two feet on the tree. Wonder which 10 month old caused that?

June is also started to stand on her own for a second or two at a time. Actually, I never see it, but everyone else tells me she is.

Vacation was fun, but it's really nice to be home with these two goofballs.
