Well, for some annoying reason the photos I had on Photobucket didn't want to cooperate and transfer over here. Oh well, I guess it worked out because this way I looked back on the camera card and found a bunch of pictures that I didn't have on the Photobucket account. Here you go, finally!
I love the note that Gail (Quinn's Physical Therapist from First Steps) left on his homework sheet. It said to continue to work with Quinn's standing stability and to encourage lots of stand up play. The best part was the last sentence: 'you're not going to stop him now!' Loved that!
I love how Quinn's hands are blurry in this picture. It so sums him up. He's ALWAYS got his hands moving about something he's excited about. I wish I could remember what he was looking at in the picture that had him so excited.
Who knows if this was before or after Quinn bit Parker in the arm because Parker tried to invade Quinn's cupboard. Are you kidding me?? Don't you love how Quinn is ALL THE WAY inside the cupboard?! What a monkey!
So excited!
Some of the boys' clothes fit them really well everywhere except over their big heads. Case in point!!
I just love the look on Parker's face. He's looking at me like: 'Do you think this is FUNNY?! My head is STUCK!'
Becoming 'one with the toys'
Miss Sally. I had to meow to get her to turn her head like that...but it looks awfully cute!
Check out the eyelashes on this dog! The breeder joked that I should put some mascara on her.
Quinn aka Brillo. Check out that HAIR! Haircuts for both boys on Thursday. Thank goodness!
This weekend we had a party to go to at Jason's cousins house. They had a lot of yummy food. Everyone got a big kick out of the boys, but I do get tired of people commenting that Quinn is 'slower' than Parker. Ugh, that just makes me grit my teeth. Please do not pigeon hole my children. I know people don't mean anything by it, but it really offends me. I think the next time I hear that I really need to have a response. I'm usually so taken aback that I don't have anything to say. I think the next time I will say: 'He's not SLOWER, he's developing on his own schedule, and for being nine weeks early I'd say he's just fine, but thanks for your concern-because I'm sure that's what you meant by what you said.' My sister tells me I need to have a thicker skin, but at some point he will understand all of what people are saying, and I just don't think that's a fair assessment.
That's it for now. Am keeping it short since I posted lots of pictures today.

hi sister!
i LOVE the photos. Boo, it makes me sad i cannot see you guys more often. :(
in the process of ATTEMPTING to pack and throw away some of my clutter i came across pictures of the boys from when they were first born--i mean FIRST born, cords attached and all.
what little wonders they are, you and jason must be so proud.
joel and i were talking about you guys visiting in october and i told him we'll have to baby proof the place! ahh!
we are both planning on taking off from work! how exciting!
we've been having fun craigslisting for the new place. yesterday we got a rice cooker, microwave (the sort that has a grill in it, too), and metal canisters that match the micro&rice cooker--all for under 80$!
speak soon--perhaps i'll ring you after 8.
OH! AND while buying the microwave...i spotted the most gorgeous owl s&p shakers--and i said 'oo! can i buy those, too?!' they guy goes, 'well they are my girlfriend's and she isn't home.' anyway...we had to run to brake a 20$ and when we came back to grab the oven and set off to leave, the guy came running out with the shakers for me!
i love europeans--so giving! ha. his g/f is from turkey so i named one owl Hagia and the other Sophia

Ok, Parker's pic with the shirt on his head is hysterical. If you would have submitted that for Regis and Kelley's beautiful baby contest, it would have won for sure.
Mikan is just getting started with opening cabinets. I love that they are exploring!
