Making it even



Everyone knows that the first child has about 2 million more pictures taken of them then any following children. I guess I am making up for it by posting way too many pictures of Logan. That way if Logan says "why does Austin have so many pictures?" I can say "Why son, he does have a lot of pictures, but yours were on the World Wide Web." And then he will be so amazed it will instantly solve any jealousy issues right then and there. At least that will be how it goes in my dream world. Because then of course Austin will say, "How come you didn't put me on the Internet." and then they will pummel each other as only brothers know how. Oh well. Here are more cute pictures of Logan and I guess I better find some for Austin. *sigh*

p.s. I love that Logans eyes are blue. I now have a chocolate boy and a blue boy. yesssss.





Here we go. This was taken today at the botanical gardens. You even get the benefit of seeing me in a picture. A rare occurrence since I am the family photographer.

Wow I really do have a snotty face. Oh well, I felt happy on the inside. :-)

Food, Glorious Food!

As you can see we are finally getting to try SOLID FOOD (said in a boomy sort of superhero voice). Logan has been smacking is lips for about a month now and finally got to see what the big deal about eating is and well...he LOVED it. While I was mixing his first bowl of rice cereal he got all excited like he knew exactly what I was up too. Then when I gave him his first bite, he just chomped it down like he had been eating his whole life. I have never seen a baby eat so well right away, beware the future.


Mom, I totally love food, but like my brother, I totally DON'T love a mess.

Look Alike Contest


Okay, so I have said it over and over that my boys look just like Dan and well here it is again. The eyebrows have it Ladies and Gentleman. I thought that Dan was the only one able to do the whole pointy eyebrow thing, but alas I am wrong. Apparently I am breeding a whole generation of pointy eyebrow people. They, and Smiths, are slowly taking over the world one baby at a time. BEWARE.






I threw this one in just for the cuteness factor. And yes, for those of you that know about the sacred choo-choo blanket, Austin actually did put it there. How is that for big brother devotion?

Gotta love Texas!

Howdy all. I just have to say the fall/winter in Texas is WAY better than winter any where else. Here are some great pictures of us enjoying the wonderful outdoors over thanksgiving. We have had a minor little cold front come in, making it super cold at night (about 35 degrees) then in the day it is around the 60's. I love it. I'll take a green Christmas anytime.

Here we are at McKinny Falls the day after Thanksgiving. Why yes we are wearing shorts, thank you very much. We had a blast and Austin really loved throwing rocks in the water. Logan got to ride in the Back Pack for the first time and thought it was just about the neatest thing since his fingers.


This is the way everyone should travel! and FYI my dad is the best
rock skipper in the world!


Wow, I never knew how exhausting it is to be carried around on Dans back. Logan didn't have to move one muscle and is completely gone. Now I know that if I want a really good workout, I'll just have Dan go hiking with me on his back.
