Happy Birthday Bridget!

We have our second birthday celebration in the month of January, and a new 12 year old in the house. Happy Birthday, Bridget! We love you very much and thank you for the joy you've brought us for the past 12 years! You kept us on our toes when you were a toddler (you were our busiest baby!) and you keep us all laughing with your deep thoughts and great sense of humor now! You sure have made life better for our family. Thanks for being you! Bridgee-boo at about 18 months

And now...

Wii Fun!

The kids have enjoyed their Wii they got for Christmas! Here's a picture of three of the younger kids playing. Erin is not "plugged in" but she sure enjoys the game none-the-less. She watches the racing track and turns the wheel, back and forth, so seriously. It cracks me up! She's such a little mimic. She loves to do whatever the other kids are doing.

Anyone Want Some Beta Fish?

As part of Moira's Natural History/Biology course this year, she is required to do a number of lab experiments. For one of her labs she chose to observe, and set up experiments, using Beta fish. She had a number of arrangements and settings for these fish, two males and two females. Of course you cannot predict how your subjects will respond to the environment you provide; you just carry out the activities and hope they cooperate. Well, as you can see, Moira came to her final conclusion to her project by writing her somewhat brief summery on the fish bowl. See for yourself the conclusion she came to, written with black permanent marker. Well Moira, better luck next time!

Erin's New Trick

It seems Erin wants to get in on a little bloggin' too. This is her latest little predicament. She wants to use the computer, but she's just too short to reach the keyboard. So she brings the keyboard to her....it works much better this way!

More video of Erin walking

Erin is making great progress with walking! She walks about 50% of the time now. :)

Go Erin go!

I took this video early in the morning, so her hair is a crazy mess.
