a boy and his wipes

Ian was playing with the wipes warmer, and I just stood and took pictures while I watched him explore.

"Hm, what's this?"

"Look! I can pull them out!"

"Mmm. Soapy. Yum!"

Well, we've done it again!

As of now, this little branch of the Smillie family is in Indianapolis, IN. Feel free to leave a comment or email me if you'd like our current address!

every little girl loves buttons :)

I found a bunch on vintage buttons at a flea market last Sunday, and on Monday I let Emma play with them. :) At first she was enjoying looking at the individual buttons, but pretty soon she moved to placing (or throwing) them into a vase and then dumping them back and forth.

She had sooooo much fun!

and getting cuter, sweeter and chubbier by the day. We love you Buddy!

"playing" with Daddy's new game

John got an Xbox from the family for Christmas, and we've been keeping him company as he plays. :)

Emma likes to pretend that she can play, too, and will put on John's headset and talk to "Shosh" (Josh, the brother who is on the most often) as she sits with John.

Ian really has no idea what's going on - he just likes to be with Daddy. :)

(almost) sitting up!

let's play!

thank you Uncle David and Aunt Jenny for all the pretend food! I really like it a lot - want to come and play with me?
