Stratton Turns Three!!

Stratton turned three this month and Grandpa Johnson gave him his first birthday present. A Lightening McQueen shake car. He thought it was the coolest present ever! He played with it and his other shake cars for about an hour after he got it.

Strat got a gigantic birthday cake, as it was dessert for the Blessing. He liked the blue frosting only. He tried to blow the candle out, but the wind kept blowing it out for him. One time he got really close before the wind blew it out, so we counted it as good. He also got to open a few presents. We gave him a Leapster ClickStart, which is like a little computer that hooks into the T.V. He looks so cute playing the games on it, just like a little computer geek.


Dinosaur Museum...

For Strat's birthday we took the cousins that are around his age to the Dinosaur Museum. It is a very cool place and really keeps the kids interested by having many interactive activities.

The kids would not set foot inside this cave without Sar. Once they went in, they decided it was okay and kept running through it.

Here are all the cousins with 'Grandma'.

Stratton can't quite believe that he is under a huge dinosaur!


I call this the paintbrush dance. I think they are under a trance!
Funny picture here. I got all the kids looking at me and smiling, even though they were more than a little bit scared to go in front of the big shark. Well, I took the 'perfect' picture and instantly heard crying. It was Strat, and as you can see, he fell backwards right when I took the picture. I caught him in the act, but he didn't think it was very funny.


It's Party time!


Yep, another Lighting McQueen!

Happy Birthday Strat!!

Fun Marley Pictures!

These pictures really have no theme, except they are all pictures of Marley...

Our flower child!

This is Marley enjoying her time at the Dinosaur Museum.

Marley got some new glasses, just her size!

This is the neatest thing, it is called a Bumbo. Marley thinks she is so big when she sits in it and she is so nosy that it is perfect for her to check out the world.

This is Marley on her blessing day (September 16th). This was also Stratton's third birthday so we did a double party.

Welcome Seth!

Marley is not the youngest any longer! She now has a brand new cousin that is 2 months younger than her. She is still so small, but now she seems like a giant!
