Office Chair

Sophie and Spencer spend a lot of time together. They love sitting on the office chair and spinning here are some funny pics.






Sophia's Birthday Party February 17, 2007

Sophia wanted to have a Princess Party again this year. I was not altogether thrilled about the idea. I kept pushing the bowling alley, but no go. The party turned out fun. We had 12 kids there counting Mackay and Spencer and it was crazy! She wanted to invite more but I finally drew the line. Next time I will draw it a little sooner. We had a dance party, played who can find the pea, duck, duck goose and even had a surprise performace from Danny. That's what happens when you under-plan. Sophia had a wonderful time!

Everyone scarfing their frozen pizza before the guest arrive.

The Royal Crown Cake.

Sophia opening Granny and Grandpa Waite's birthday gift to her. More dress up, Oh Yeah, Uh-huh!



Everyone enjoying their cake. Mackay of course giving bunny ears--he is such a joker!



Sophia blowing out her candles. Sitting by her two good friends Ellie K. and Abby.


Sophie and Ellie. She really wanted a picture of her and Ellie together. They are friends from preschool.

The whole gang, minus two boys who came a little late. This was just after all the girls got their princess makeovers.




Our New/Old Piano

I keep forgetting to put a picture of our piano up. We got a great deal on this piano--free. It cost us to tune it and I made a cover for the seat. All together is cost us $90! What a bargin. Cliff I know you are proud of me for being so cheap! The past couple of days I have found Spencer just sitting on the seat hangn' out. He loves to climb and has already tried to get to the top of the piano--he hasn't made it yet. I'm still to quick for him.

Valentines Day 2007

We had a fun Valentines Day. Some of our friends had a death in their family so we had one of Sophia's friends staying with us. She thought this was a 4 day party. The kids all had their school parties and Danny helped Sophia and Abby decorate the basement with balloons and crate paper while I went to the Grocery store. This worked well for me. You'll have to ask Danny how he felt about the deal. We had some great food for dinner--Grilled steaks and shrimp, baked potatoes, fresh green beans and chocolate dipped strawberries for dessert. We were stuffed!


Spencer is turing into such a litttle boy! Where does the time go?



Sophia and her friend Abby


Mackay is so photogenic and is always ready to stike a pose.


Danny showing his muscles as he takes a break from the computer. He would probably kill me if he knew I was posting this. Which is one of the reasons blogging is so much fun.



Mackay's 2nd Grade Research Report

Mackay had to do a research report on an endangered animal. He did a great job doing research and learning all about Manatees. I was really impressed! This is the visual aide he made for his report.


Spencer playing Dress up

Spencer loves playing in Sophia's room, mostly because she doesn't kick him out like Mackay. One day he came out all made over by his sister. He was laughing and running around he thought it was so fun. Here are just a few photos I could snap.
