Funny Kid Pics

First of all, please forgive these pictures, they were taken on my phone because our camera was broken! We did just get a free video camera that also takes stills from debit card reward points (woohoo!) so hopefully the pictures will be better with that.

So, this first picture is my silly boy giving his stuffed giraffe a piggy back ride. He was so proud of himself for getting is strapped on his back. Such a goofball! :)

The story on this next picture is so adorable. We were grocery shopping and I picked out a watermelon. Adah wanted it to sit next to her. She then talked to, hugged, and kissed the watermelon until I was done shopping. It was her own little imaginary watermelon friend. I made sure she wasn't in the room when we chopped him up! ;)

This last one is a reminder of my childhood. :) One year for Christmas, my parents gave me this dome tent. I can't remember if I ever actually slept in it outside, but I do remember having it set up in our living room quite often. We had a day a while back that it was actually rainy off and on all day (a miracle!) so it was too nasty to play outside. I decided this was the perfect time to unveil my tent. The kids loved it. We even took a nap in it.

Photo Shoot

While the Cumming side of our family was together my in-laws wanted to hire a photographer to take some family pictures. I have two good friends who are photographers (see a like to Michaela Carpentar Photography to the right) were both in NYC on a mission trip! So luckily I had one more friend that I knew did photography so she got the job and did awesome! It was super hot, but after bribing Adah with ice cream, we got some great shots! My favorites of our family are here, along with a picture of some VERY happy grandparents with all three of their grandkids together for the first time.


If you ask Adah where she gets her pretties she says "from my mommy!" Also if you ask Nate where he gets his good looks he says "from my daddy!" :) They are trained well.

Happy Grandpa and Grammy with all three of their grandkids!

Meeting baby Charlie

We recently had a visit from Thomas's brother and his family. The kids were SO excited about seeing Uncle Alan and Aunt Sarah, AND meeting baby Charlie who was in Aunt Sarah's tummy when we went to visit them in NYC at Christmas. As you can see below, Charlie is just as adorable as we thought he would be :)


Adah is currently pretty baby obsessed. She has this purple stuffed bear that she pretends is her baby. It has been swaddled for about 2 months. I have to sneak the blanket away to wash it. So needless to say, she was VERY happy to have a REAL baby to play with. She loved "Baby Chawie" and I think she would have been happy to keep him, but alas, he had to go home. :( We had a great visit and can't wait to see them again!
