Neely Eats Cereal and The Rest of Us Do Other Things

With 3 kids now, it gets even crazier if I miss a day of blogging. I have a zillion pictures to post and have to narrow it down some.

Cason wants to play outside all day now, so if I need to do something IN the house and try to keep him in a while, he ends up sneaking his bike inside. The other day he pedaled around as fast as he could,
and then ran into the hearth, said "I'm not fast" and hung his head sadly.
He hadn't been napping for a long time, but since our vacation he takes LONG ones every day. Still worn out I guess. Then we wake him up if we need to go places, and he's all groggy.
But handsome.

Paige is getting really excited about her ballet recital in a couple months. The other night she set up an audience in the living room.
And practiced for us.
Then she took a bow.
And then she made each and EVERY one of the stuffed animals in the audience get on stage and perform for us, one at a time. Ha. She hid off to the side and watched after she put them on stage.
Jess, Neely, and I would sit quietly, staring at the motionless stuffed animal, and after a few seconds applaud and she'd run out and switch animals.
Ha. It took a while.

The next day Alex and Faith came over and spent the night.
I like Caso's tough guy look he's giving Alex there.

Jess brought me home some flowers yesterday,
and Paige and Cason stole some of them. Paige set hers up in her room. :)
Neely's really been staring at our food all of a sudden, so last night she got to try rice cereal.
She was really happy we were letting her try it, but I don't think much actually made it to her belly.I love this cross-eyed shot.
And this happy one.
Today Barby's cousin Annette and her husband John were visiting, so we went out to meet them and visit a while.

Cason had fun a while,
And then passed out for the rest of the visit.
Neely has been acting a little funky, maybe getting teeth, but she mostly enjoyed her visit too.
Smiling at Grampy.
And sleeping and looking pretty doing it.
Paige had a good hair day for the visit. Haha.
I didn't see much of her, she and Lily were off playing the whole time.
I usually bring my camera everywhere, but forget to actually get it out of my bag when we go somewhere away from home. Today we actually got some pictures of people.
Cason was asleep and missed out on the Great Grama, Grammy, and kids shot.

I totally know what you mean about not blogging and the pictures and stories just pile up! I love Paige's practice recital...she cracks me up.

Aw, Cason looks so sweet sleeping. Oh and I love that Paige made you watch all of her stuffed animals.

Well...I love Cason's crazy happy smile while he was biking like a maniac AND I laughed reading about the Paige/stuffed animal recital AND there was something else, but I can't remember. =)

Touching, Chris. You are so sentimental.

You should make a photo book of the faces that Cason makes. That guy is one funny fellow. As is Paigers. But not a fellow. . . "make sure that swing works." Ha. She's awesome.
