A Wee Bit Irish

This family may not be Irish, but we do like celebrations!

Initially only the wee lass was interested in being in a picture, so we had to get creative...

I finally caught my little leprechaun

It's beginning to look a lot like...Christmas?!

So despite the calendar claiming that it is March, and (hopefully) heading towards spring, the weather here today seems to think that we are right in the middle of winter and all of its snowy glory. Clearly the weather is trying to encourage me to post some of the winter pictures that never quite made it on the blog in a timely manner...here are the remainder of the "winter" pictures (take note, weather, and now proceed to spring-like conditions!).

Four (Months) is Fabulous!

This week, Evelyn celebrated turning 4 months old by sleeping through the night - twice! Traditionally, the birthday celebrant is the one receiving gifts, but this was one lovely gift for Mommy and Daddy. Now if only it could become our new normal...

Evelyn was a pleasant participant in her 4-month photo shoot, although she was not her usual super-smiley self (LOVE these 4-month-old sweet smiles, and giggles starting now too!). Here are a few pictures of the little lady, and also some of her handsome older brother.

What's so interesting over there? (hint: it is 2.5 yrs old and responds to the name "Eli")
