Parenting

I always thought that parenting would change as you had more children. Your first one, you are extra cautious. Your first get a bath every day with a lavender massage after. Your second gets a bath every other day and gets some lotion in the winter for dryness. Your third gets a bath when they start to stink and lotion? do you even have any? I'm just joking but you get what I'm talking about. Anyway, I think I did birthdays a little backward.



Savanna's birthday cake. She has favorite stuffed animal flamingo so I thought she'd like a flamingo cake. So she had a personally interest in the cake and it turned out cute.







Sean's first birthday cake. A square cut away from the rest of the cake. The palm tree looks a little funny. The only reason its a palm tree is because we were in Florida and he was calmed down by being outside looking at the trees. And he burnt himself on the massive candle we got.



And Kaelin's first cake was store bought by her aunt Brandi and had cute bugs on it, mostly because her room was decorated with lady bugs. We didn't take any pictures, or even buy a candle.

Squeakers

Savanna got some sneakers that squeak when she walks. They are so stinking cute. And I'm so mad that I turned the camera sideways AGAIN. I need to make a sticker and post it on the camera so I don't forget again. Anyway, its really cute.

Papa Moore's camera

My parents and my uncle came to visit for their last time. My dad kept telling Kaelin about his camera and how it could take pictures under water. So here there are. I personally love just about all these pictures.

Gaga and Savanna





Ready...Set...





GO!!!






Sean jumped too, but only from one step to the next, never even got his hair wet.



Diving together



Kaelin loves to dive under the water to retrieve things. She's getting rather good at it.




This is Sean's most common pose in the pool.




Savanna sort of jumped, more like walked off the edge.



Big smiles and blue eyes, which by the end of the day were bright red

Bunches of birthday pictures

Lame post

I know this is a lame post, but I've been asked to post a link to Kaelin's page by a couple different people, and I'm just letting everyone know that there is a link over on the right above the "Memphis Pals" list. She's included in the "Family" list. I've also made it so that if you click on her picture on the right it should take you to her blog. Let me know if that doesn't work. Later I'll have a post for Savanna's birthday, because IT"S TODAY!!!!! I'm gathering the pictures of the day. Alright thanks for letting me do a lame post.

Sean the climber???

A little while ago I posted a picture of Sean climbing on the water heater. I assumed that was what you got with a boy. A born climber. Until this past week, when I have found another child of mine climbing on anything and everything. Surprisingly, it's Savanna! She's just barely turning one and already has climbed her way into the shower with me, into an empty tub, up some opened drawers, and now up onto an old crate that the kids use to reach the sink. I'm definitely going to have to watch this girl.





BTW Kaelin has a new post

Happy Birthday! It is early, I know

We just got back from a family reunion to Nauvoo. Did I take any pictures? Not really. The only pictures that I took were a few shots of Savanna having a mini birthday celebration. Since we had all the family together we had them sing "Happy Birthday" to her. Her actual birthday isn't until Friday. Rob found some candles at a local general store and she enjoyed some mud slide type cake with a whipped cream topping on it.
It looks like she got cake all over the wall, but it's just the floral wall paper.



Little video, nothing too exciting!
