Jude Swimming

After one week of swimming lessons, Jude is ready for Hawaii!! Hooray. See you in two weeks all tanned and smiling.

James is 30 today!!!

Happy Birthday my love! I hope your next ten years are as good as the last!

Doing a bit of service

Our friends needed a wall knocked down and a bit of gardening.

Jude and James picking at the rubble

James wielding the whellbarrow while Jude offers emotional support.

Jude's got a hammer!!! Watch your toes. (He is wearing his Wellies)

(That's british for rain boots)

(Where else would you put a baby in a bumbo?)

Photo Shoot

SHe looks like such a cheeky little chunker!!!

Jude is learning to smile on demand :)

He thinks this is smiling. I think he looks like he is about to attack...

She loves her tummy time.

Deep in the land of Nod

I love my darling kids. These are just some shots we took while hanging out inside during the rainy days of winter. Which are quite common here in the good ol' UK.

Sooooo Hillarious

I love these commercials. They are so funny. They are for a british candy co. that makes gummy bear like candy but from real fruit juice. You have to watch this. Some of you may know people like this. :)

My crazy kids

Jude loves to "play" with Polly. He is always in her face, roaring like a dinosaur, kissing her, hugging her, and calling her by name in very high pitched tones!

Jude in the foam pit at our local gymnastics center. We go each Wednesday to the open session where he can just run around and use everything! He loves it.

Sweet Polly all ready for church at 4 weeks old! I love this dress, so girly, yet not pink. :)

Jude, on the other hand, loves pink. jk He does love pushing around the baby strollers at play groups though. This is at the gymnastics center. They put out toys for the kids.

GLASSES AT 2!!!

So cute! My little Jude has glasses now! He is far-sighted and works so hard to see that he only uses one of his eyes. These are meant to help correct that.

2 pairs of glasses

Wearing them for 5 days now

Broken both pairs twice already

They know us by first names at SpecSavers

He's had loads of bribery chocolate to wear them

NOW he has the hang of them and wears them with no problem. He even asks for them when he wakes up! Horray!!!!

Did I mention they are "Mr. Bump" glasses?

What a cutie!

His Eyes are Huge! Like that chap from A CHRISTMAS STORY.

"You'll shoot your eye out" You know what I mean?
