Fine Dining

Fine dining at the Allan house has sure changed. Yes, we ate dinner tonight at the little tiny table. Check out Aaron on the little chair, so sweet. Zackary had a blast, he even moved the chairs for all of us. Sometimes getting him to come to the dinner table just isn't worth it. We actually enjoyed ourselves.

Nice Rolls!

Baby Lane is huge! I just had to show off his great rolls. These pictures don't even do them justice. This was after his long day of hiking in the Bjorn, in which he thoroughly enjoyed. I have a feeling he is going to be even bigger than Zackary. Look out!

Hiking

On MLK day we went to Boyce Thompson Arboretum with the Fox Family. What a great day hiking with friends (practically family). The weather was amazing, it almost seemed like late spring. Check out Zackary, he kept up with the big kids the entire time; hiking, running, and climbing. Matthew, Jacob, and Kathryn all entertained Zackary so much and took such good care of him climbing on the rocks. I guess we no longer need the stroller for him, he's a trooper. Lane got to ride in the Bjorn...he loves it. Yes, his shirt says Go Giants.

Boots

I just had to post more pictures of the boots. I just can't get enough. Playing outside with only an undershirt, diaper, and 'the boots.' Aaron took him upstairs to get a bath and didn't make it very far, only the pants made it off...he showed up downstairs to put on the boots and head outside.

Forced Friends

Check this out. Lane is exactly 1 month older than Baby K. I can't believe the difference. We are talking around a 6lb difference. He's huge! I bet he is thinking "Steamroll!!!"
These are all the children that are going to be 'forced friends' because all their parents are best friends. Suppose they will all like each other? We sure hope so. So far so good, they all play very well together. We really struggled to get all of them in one shot, it wasn't very successful. We were afraid someone was going to get crushed.

Nice birdy

I thought this picture was quite comical. Baby Lane was pretty much flipping me the bird. It looks like the pacifier wasn't exactly what he had in mind.

Into Trouble

I apparently wasn't thinking. I pulled a chair over to the counter so Zackary could help make some frosting for the cupcakes I had to make one night. I taught him a very bad thing, well bad for me, I should say. Now I continually hear the chair being moved over to the counter to get into all sorts of new things that have never been seen before. I keep finding fruit that has a couple of little bits in them. Nice!

This is another daily battle of mine, which Aaron just doesn't understand. You see, Aaron has this drawer, as he calls it, "the man drawer." It has all sorts of NOT child safe items, such as, keys, screw drivers, gum, coins, pens, markers, matches... as you can see in the picture. He was playing with a full box of matches, they were everywhere. I know the kid is already into fire, this is not a good sign.
