E's first haircut

Granny still has it! even after 8o years, she is still cutting and styling hair. Elliott was well behaved for his first haircut.

Comparison at 1

Wow. Lennox was so much more beefy than Elliott at the same age! Both aren't really interested in getting their hands dirty. Elliott was extra grumpy because he wasn't feeling great.

happy 1st bday E

Elliott turned 1 last weekend. we can't believe how time flys...

muscles

when papa was lennox's age, the family joke was that everytime papa showed his muscles, he contracted some sort of sickness. Lennox or mama did not seem to have any post-flex illness.

mama and elliott

elliott hasn't figured out yet that the cubs are the despicable this year....and most years.

Oh Honey Bunches of Oats!

Elliott is caught in the act here....mama was getting ready to make some homeade chicken fingers with honey bunches of oats breading. Well, Elliott figured out how to get into the bag and the rest is a mess.

brady bunch

Lennox and Elliott love to head to the basement for fun time. Nox painted this house and here they are peering out of one of the windows.

taking a break on easter sunday

Lennox was all tuckered out from Easter festivities. Mama helps him relax.

Toad huntin'

Lennox was out toad hunting again. He said he needed four since we had four people in the family.

Allerton

Lennox said, "Papa, this is a pretty bad picnic because it is too windy." We recovered to have a wonderful time in the spring sun. Lennox loved the Fu Dog Garden so much, we had to walk back to it again. The family hiked a couple of miles - finally!
