...no ideas for a good title here...

And thinking of a title is just wasting more time that I don't have. Let's see how long it will take before Amelia decided to push buttons on me...or start to scream or be bad etc. Hmm, how do people keep up with a blog? I was caught reading Leah's post just before writing this and all of a sudden I thought "oh...if I don't post anything soon Amelia will do such and such and Aaron will wake up and Jett will come in saying why I haven't gone to bed yet..." etc. Sooo, I actually didn't manage to finish reading Leah's post (sadly!) and I haven't checked a few other blogs in a while either...oh well. Ok must load some pics up!

Having two kids is somewhat of a challenge (of course!). I'm still trying to figure out how I'm going to go back to cloth diapers with Amelia...but for now I'm enjoying the "ease" of disposable or are they giving me ease? Amelia has a rash and I think it has a whole lot to do with using disposables (and I'm using Pampers so you would think that is a good brand).

So, we've been a busy household for the past two days (and I've been a busy, overtired, housewife and mom). Busy that is with terminating my PR in the States (now why is it soooo easy to terminate PR, but excruciatingly difficult to get it in the first place?? I suppose it is a good thing it was easy cause I would have gotten upset over more stress of paperwork...ugh) And we've been working on getting Aaron to be a citizen of the US, for as it stands right now he appears to have no citizenship of any country. Sooo we thought we had all the right things and we get to the Consulate today only to find out that we need the "long form birth certificate" not the abbreviated one which we had. Ugh, it always always happens to me to run into some mean US official, or something is not going to workout with getting documents for the US. Ach well, by the end of this I'll know what to do next time.


I thought this pic was cute, Aaron of course is kind of a blob not being able to move much but still cute nonetheless.

Steph you wanted to see her eat...well this is the closest I got. We've been trying to give her, her own plate of food now but she still would rather have us feed her (well the majority of the time).
Quiche and carrots mmm!
Jett took this pic (I just erased Daddy and put Jett there instead...I guess it is true you start to call your husband Daddy when you have kids!!).

And here is Amelia talking on the phone to her one and only Daddy. She really is beginning to say more words now, the newest being Apple and duckie. Their conversation went something like this:
Daddy: Hi Amelia! (ok it took a few of these "hi Amelia's" before she responded)
Amelia: Hi
Daddy: Where's Aaron? Where's the baby?
Amelia: A-a-a-,
Daddy: Can you say baby?
Amelia: Baby.
Daddy: Yeah. Where's Mommy?
Amelia: Mama.
Daddy: Are you being a good girl?
Amelia: good girl (or close to that)
Daddy: Yeah. Are we going to go bye bye?
Amelia: bye bye.
And then lots of baby talk started on Amelia's end.

Okay a few more pictures and then I need to be getting ready for bed!
This is the way your supposed to wear a hat...lol, why do hats always do this? Thank you Melissa for the cute hat...I thought you might like to see my manny actually wearing it. :)

And here I pulled it up a bit. Ok must be off! :)

Awww!! Aaron is starting to get so chubby! It's adorable! The hat, btw, if it is falling down that much, can be rolled up more, lol. :-) Glad to see it getting put to use! He looks good in blue/green/yellow!

The photos are great! I have been waiting for new ones...Will try to call soon.

(Amelia's phone conversation was really cute.)

She's cute on the phone. . .I find that at first when they recognise the voice, an infant will start looking down the phone as tho suddenly Daddy is going to appear. It takes a while for them to work out that Daddy can be there in voice but not in body :-)

Thank you for posting a food photo, Ev. Way down inside I also think "hmmm, Ev remembers me!" LOL! We've been letting Claire eat by herself, but I have to help her alot too. She eats till the plate/bowl is *almost* empty then puts it to the side like she's done. It's kina funny.

I think I need to email you. I'd like to say a bunch of things, but then again, this is only a comment I'm supposed to leave, not an email type.

You're always on my mind and in my heart!
Love you sis
