The Zoo is still around!

 

 

 

We're still here! Busier than I could have imagined possible. Can you believe our Gracie Girl is 8 months old today the 23rd?! Where does that time go? (BTW, that's Elizabeth in case you are confused...) :) Happy Day! Oh, and she's begun to sit up by herself finally--YAHOO!! I was so excited last night when she sat up in the bathtub and splashed around for a little bit!! I tried to have B get a picture but the moment was gone (she grew tired and hungry before I could summon the photographer). OH well, have a great one!

Save Time, Create a Web Album (or 2)

Life is short and freetime is shorter. In being a conservationist, I've created two web albums with the pictorial Easley Zoo News dating from the arrival of the youngest zoo member until almost current day (same month anyway...) If you haven't recieved the link via email (for any variety of reasons) or you are a long lost friend stumbling upon our blog, drop me a comment and I'll see if I can hook you up. You don't want to miss out, I know! :)

 

Ben (L) and Elizabeth (R)

 

At 3 days old, she's gotten prettier...and looks more like the others at that age.

Check 'em out.

Jacob's 7th in Jan.

 

Ta-Da! The dining room

Here it is! We are missing the crown moulding and the ceiling needs work (after the roof is fixed), but this is it. (If we had the fruit painting from Brad and Meg's we'd replace it with the one on the far wall.) :) That swag is my sari from India! 

Our kitchen--nearly done...

We've yet to do the backsplash; the legs supporting the pennisula are unfinished, and we lack a few knobs on the cabinets, but I love it! 

Word to the Wise...

NEVER fall asleep when your 3 year old is awake! Or else...
(She told me she was "skating". The thin tracks on right of the cusion match a toy car that must have been skating, too.)

Check out that training wheel! 

Laughing siblings...

What fun my 3 had a MawMaw's in early November! 

Jacob lost his first tooth!

After a day of whining about how his loose tooth hurt and how he couldn't eat and in particular, his comment, "What if my tooth falls out while I am sleeping and I choke on it?", Mom just pulled it out. Next morning, Jacob was sad to see his tooth had been taken--even though the tooth fairy replaced it with a dollar! He wants to start a tooth collection, so tonight he's leaving a note to ask for his tooth back.
