Lydia's Political Endorsement

hehehe I (Elizabeth) couldn't resist and as Auntie Kathy says-our family shouldn't discuss politics because we all just cancel out each other's votes anyway.

Little Pumpkins

Caleb's family came to visit and we went to a pumpkin patch-Gloria slept the whole time. We also took her to a restaurant-hamburgers & ice cream)

Big sister & little sister

Lydia and Gloria exchanged big sister and little sister baby dolls. Now Lydia wants the one she gave Gloria to always be by her side, we were all in the kitchen and watched out to find Gloria like this (she is asleep under there)

Gloria's here!

Gloria Joy has joined us! Here are some quick pics from early days. More details to come soon.

Hair cut!

Lydia needed her bangs trimmed and I have done it twice before so last night I got the scissors out and oops-I cut them way too short! I know they will grow but hopefully any minute now we will be having lots of family photo opportunities with the new baby. Discussing it with a friend I remembered the French movie Amelie and her short bangs, so we decided this is what we were going for :) chic and french.

Fun sayings

Some more funny things Lydia has said:
"I see Nini eat Happy cake." She calls herself Nini, and this was when she wanted to look in her baby book and see the pictures of her eating her 1 year birthday cake.
"Jesus help boo-boos" This is when she wants you to read the story of Jesus and the 10 lepers. This is a big improvement because for a long time we were only 'allowed' to read Adam&Eve and Baby Moses :)
"poor humpy humpy" after Humpty Dumpty fell off the wall.
"hakahaka" = helicopter
"labalaba" = water bottle
