Lilly sits so good for me when I want to take pictures of her. I was lucky to get this shot where her face was really relaxed, so much so that she looks like more of a baby than the big girl she is growing up to be. I like the way her lips are so full, and her cheeks are so round. My little girl!
Jude's been rocking the 'hawk lately, thanks to baby lotion and his mommy's insistance. Here, you can see the multiple bruises on his forehead, thanks to his ever-growing desire to be fully mobile (and the knocks he takes along the way!). Also observe the big tears in his eyes...he had just fallen and knocked his head on Lilly's chair. My response? Take a picture, of course. (Don't worry, I snuggled with him soon after this one was shot.)
Matt loves this one of Lilly-bean.
Everyone loves games where I make them end up sitting on each other in the end. Well, everyone but Nic. (We love our Soul Pardoners!)
My handsome little man.
And my beautiful little...ahem, I mean BIG girl. Her birthday's "comin' up in April. April 9th. I'll be 3." (Lilly's response whenever anyone asks her when her birthday is, verbatim.)
Jude the dude.

Lilly made sure that Mommy's art made it on to the fridge for all to see.
Lilly was so tuckered out from her extensive artistic ventures that she put her head down right on the counter and took a nap.
Well, maybe not a real nap.
draw circles on the magna-doodle, (Lilly's really concentrating...you can tell by the way she is sticking out her tongue!)
give each other fancy hairstyles, (Lilly wanted 2 buns: one on the top of her head, and one in the back)
and we talk about important stuff.
One other noteworthy occurrance...I actually reorganized/rearranged our kitchen cabinets. Of my own volition. Without a fuss. I even wiped the cabinets down before I put stuff back into them! See, I can clean stuff! Here's proof:
Lilly & Judah played the night away a few nights ago...
...and then Jude played the piano for awhile.
Jude has some intense eyes when he's eating. I like how his pinky was pointed while he was holding his bottle.
Yep, that's right, it says, "I'm gonna have another cousin!" Wa-hoo!!! We're all excited, and I'm convinced (for no good reason) that the baby will be a girl, and they are going to name her Amelia. Lilly is already talking about her cousin "Anelia." We'll call her Millie for short. That's right, Lilly & Millie. Here's hoping Millie doesn't turn out to be a boy! Nah...we're happy either way!
