The wheels on the bus...

Here is a video of Caroline singing the wheels on the bus

Now we BOTH have little booster chairs!

Jump Clayton, Jump!

Happy Easter!

Dying Easter Eggs for the first time

Good Friday

On this Good Friday, we mourn the death of our saviour.

Luke 23: 44 - 46

44It was now about the sixth hour, and darkness came over the whole land until the ninth hour, 45for the sun stopped shining. And the curtain of the temple was torn in two. 46Jesus called out with a loud voice, "Father, into your hands I commit my spirit." When he had said this, he breathed his last.

All about Clayton

I sleep with my monkey and my pacifier.


I can sit up all by myself now.


I love my pacifier and know how to put it in my mouth facing the right way.


I love to kick my legs in the bath!


I like to hear my "voice". I can sing too!

a few more pics from Florida

Here are some shots from "BB's camera"...

2 year appointment

Caroline just had her 2 year old doctor's appointment and the doctor gave her a clean bill of health. Hurray! She weighed in at 22 lb 15 oz. (Yes - she is still our petite little princess), but luckily, that brought her up to the 10% growth line (as opposed to the 3% she was at her 18 month appointment).

Observation of the day...

"Daddy is NOT cold because he is NOT in the refrigerator."

"Falling Slowly"

Ever since I saw the movie "Once", I have been obsessed with one of its songs - "Falling Slowly". It is the song that won the Academy Award this year for best original song. It has been playing over and over in my head...Here it is on YouTube...video

Mr. Sun

This is the song Caroline would sing in Florida each morning to make the sun come out..."Oh Mr Sun, Sun, Mr. Golden Sun. Please shine down on me. "

Last day in Florida

Boo hoo. Today is our last day in Florida. We've had such a great trip. Caroline is really going to miss the pool and beach. Clayton loves swimming in the pool and is going to miss swimming in it. We've been practicing "sitting up" and he's getting close to being able to do it independently for more than a few seconds.
