Camera Connecter Busted!

To our Blog followers:  We apologize for not posting any photos and updates for over a month.  It wasn't our intention to leave you all in the dark, so to speak.  We've been having camera issues!  We initially misplaced our camera (slid under the passenger seat of the car).  We looked everywhere for it for two weeks before we finally figured out where it had run off to!  There are some really cool photos on it, so I eagerly went to download them onto our computer, but the USB cord wasn't making a connection. Turns out, our 11 month old was sucking on the end that attaches to the camera rendering it unusable... :) We're going to get a new one ASAP!  Please stand by :)  

Buddies and Halloween!

 One of her favorite things to do lately is sit up on the counter while I'm busy in the kitchen :)  

 While on a walk, Klaudia and Lillian preferred to sit on each other's lap :) 

 James bounced himself to sleep!

 For Halloween, James was a pumpkin!

 It took a couple of houses to get the hang of Trick-Or-Treating, but before long, Lillian was a master at it!  At this particular house, the gentleman who answered the door lowered the basket of candy and let Lillian pick which treat she wanted.  Lillian proceeded to try and fit as many pieces of candy that she could into her hand.  It was really cute and super funny :)

Knock-knock!!!!

Little Characters!

At 9-months old, James is quite the piano player and typist... and he does both at the same time!!

 When Keith is home from work, we are less strict about nap time and Lillian often passes out on the sofa with us :)

 Lillian got all decked out in her Halloween costume for preschool!  Yippy, I'm a cow!!

 Every evening, James and Lillian take a bath together.  It's very cute!  Lately, we've been playing a new game... see if we can turn on the water on before mommy can stop us!

It was quiet in the house, so I knew they were up to something!  I turn around to find them sprinkling water on Ginger while she was resting in her dog bed!

Mr. James has started walking with support!

A video of the first time he used his walker!

Coffees Love Sundays!

Mr. and Miss Coffee are sloowwwwly waking up! 

Can I suck on your earlobes, Mommy?

Come back here with those earlobes!

1... 2... 3... say COFFEE!

COFFEE!!!!!

Mommy caught her little boy trying to take a header off of the sofa!  Not this time, little one!

Lillian and James playing with their trains!

Mommy, James is destroying the track again... -Lillian

Oooooooooo!  Computer Time!!!!!

Kisses!

 Our little doggy, Ginger, has been such a gift!  She is a loved, valued and cherished companion and a member of our family :)  She warms our hearts!    

And gives the best little kisses! He-he-he!

Little Cruiser!

 Since he was 7 3/4 months old, James has been a little mover!  Every day, he has been gaining confidence and growing stronger in his mobility!

 He can easily pull himself into a standing position...

 ...crawl over obstacles...

...and is determined to catch up to his sister! :)

Sticker Fun!

 We got some stickers from the nice folks at In-N-Out the other day.  Lillian had so much fun placing them all over EVERYTHING including her baby brother!

He wasn't too happy about the stickers though... :)

Oakland Zoo and More!

 It's spaghetti and meatball time!

 Love all around!

 I heard this familiar, "click-click-click-click" coming down the hallway.  Lillian was walking around in my mountain bike shoes!  :)

 It was a rainy day, but that didn't stop us from going to the zoo!

 We visited the Sun Bears again and this time they were out and about!

 Lillian visits with a new friend while watching the bunnies. 

 James tried to stay dry under our umbrella!

 Daddy points out some centipedes in the Bug House!

 Lillian's favorite exhibit was the petting zoo! She pet several goats...

 ...and fed one too!

 James passed out on the way home after a long day hang'n with the animals.

"I can do it mom!  I just know I can!"

Just You and I!

 Our Sleeping Beauty!

 Little Rock Star!

 "I won't put it in my mouth, I swear!"

 "He-he, James put it in his mouth!"

 1st Day of Preschool!

 While Lillian was in Preschool, James and I visited the ducks!

 James drove us home :)

 He's pooping :)

 Picture Perfect!

 At nine months old, James is crawling everywhere, pulling himself up, and cruising around furniture and their play table!

With James getting bigger and stronger, he and Lillian are spending more and more time playing together!
