Almost One

I end up taking lots of pics of declan in his chair. He Loves to eat after all.

Declan actually loves this game. I swear we're not bad parents.

 Hard to get good lighting in there, but I like this one. 

Perhaps obvious ceiling bounce flash, but I like how it caught the moment of celebration.

Bath night.

Mostly Declan photos this time, but I had this imported as well and love the pair of Owen shots.

Its harder and harder to tell what is going on behind those eyes these days. 

A slightly crazy shot, but I somehow really like it. This part of the front yard is a new favorite play area. Now that the sun is out there's a water table. I knew Declan would love it, water is his favorite thing, but I'm happily surprised that Owen loves to play in it as well. Owen is gradually being coaxed into the pool, and some baths are not scream fests, so maybe he's coming around. Plus, you can't see what Declan is holding on to, so it looks like he's standing.

Evening park report

declan had a great day on the swings and owen showed off his new haircut on the slide.

a pair of photos, hopefully to be out of order when I eventually go back and add some from before, but maybe not. Both are from a beautiful Sunday in the kid's garden of the little farm. Owen liked looking at the baby sheep, but didn't want to pet them. After the sheep left, we had the garden to ourselves.
