There's an app for that

*or random post from biggest blogging slacker in the universe.

"Jon if you gave me an i pad for Christmas I think I would probably actually be mad at you because you would have had to rob a bank or something to afford it and I dont want to have you in jail for the next couple of years."

"yes dear but Im sure there is a really cool app you can get that would help you count down the days till I got out!"

"sweet!"

just for fun

Just a few pictures of the kids. A picture of Breanna and the lovley lady she is turning in to. Skyler being a typical boy, dirty legs, a stick and some bark, who needs expensive toys? A typical moment between Ryan and Lane.

Ryan adores this kid like there is no tomorow. He is always playing with him or making him laugh. Or in this case putting something funny on his head and then jumping into the shot when I take a picture of it. Oh and notice Ryan's Knee? There goes the knees in yet another pair of pants.

Dear Lane

So Lane lets talk about this moving thing.

As you know I was a little less then impressed when you started rolling over at 3 months old and even less enthused when you started rolling the other way just 2 weeks after that. I also distinctly remember that feeling of dread when at the tender age of 5 months old you got your self going and pushed your self all the way across the living room floor. Dont you know that you could have waited another 2 months and been well within range of meeting your devlopmental milestones on time?

That being said what is done is done. I accept that you are a mover and a doer and that you will try to put every tiny little thing you can see in your mouth. I have decided though that you can start crawling on your hands and knees. I know you are super efficent at your little "army crawl" but I am afraid you are going to wear out chests of all your onsies and shirts. So go ahead and crawl for real, have at it.

Oh but there is one last thing, under no circumstances are you alowed to figure out how to climb up the step and get out of the sunken living room. That is not negotiable.

Love Mom.

I asked the kids today who they loved most in the whole wide world.

Although I came behind Dad from both the boys I am just happy Skyler loves me more then the TV and the wall.

Gratuitious Breanna Shot.

I have not posted a pic of Bug for a while so I just found one to throw out there. Taken on Jon's phone this is Breanna at her first Oilers game, she went with Dad and Grandpa. To top it all off she got to see her first oilers game in the skybox!

Hooo are you looking at?

p.s. do you know how hard it is to lock focus on a baby who insists on crawling toward the camera?

Today Ryan is having surgery on his eyes so he wont do this anymore. Im happy for him but it will be different. We were taking family pictures once and we kept getting glare off his glasses, we thought of taking his lenses out so we still had the look of the glasses without the glare. The problem was that as soon as you took the lenses away his eyes went cross eyed. I think in the end we just dealt with a little glare.

I love this picutre, so Ryan. We wont be getting them quite like this after today though!
