Okay! I get it! I'm a very bad blogger!

At the state fair in Minnesota:

In the butterfly "house" The butterflies were told to disrobe and get ready for the "showers". Thomas "Eichmann" Allen was responsible for mutilating at least three innocent butterflies.

I can still see you!
Me and Nut. (sporting the Maddox Jolie-Pitt 'do)

So to make up for it, I will post a whole bunch of pictures. Thomas is currently sick and miserable. I think he has a cold/allergies/teething and no poop all at the same time. Poor little pumkin head. This morning (1/18) Leah came over to watch him and all he did was cry for over 2 hours. When I finally got home, he was all smiles cuz mom came back for baby. Already the manipulation starts.

Last weekend I got to go to St. Croix and See Jess, Adam and the girls. It was great because I hadn't seen them at all since Addie's 3rd birthday! Addie and Thomas seemed to have a bit of a crush on each other, but Lily wasn't buying the "Thomas is a baby" bit. Lily is a bit taller than Thomas, but not by much. I was the biggest kid in my kindergarten class, so the height now means nothing. This may be his one and only growth spurt....

Still busy with work, trying to talk Eugene into anoher baby, and getting home improvement/Eugene Improvement projects done. House: new screen doors on front and back, new rook, new gabled entry over the back door. Eugene: tooth surgery, dentist and hernia surgery. Note to the readers...fixer uppers may be charming and quirky, but they will cost you an arm and a leg...

Also, I am currently trying to organize a rally/protest of some sort because there is a 2 month old baby that was beaten severly by her parents here in Rapids....22 fractures. I am trying to get national coverage, so you may yet hear that I am on the news or in jail....

On to the photos!

He's a very happy eater, although Jess noticed his nose was a bit orange due to his love of carrots and sweet potatoes.

Thomas and Addie....an eerie premonition of their engagment picture 26 years from now...


Lily refused to wear her pajamas...she wanted to wear Thomas' shirt instead...


Lily, Thomas and Addie... not sure what was so funny, but the girls absolutely wore Thomas out. He slept like a rock. But balancing two women would wear a fellow out. I guess he won't be much of a fundie after all....

He army crawled in reverse and got stuck. Similar to Zoolander, but he can't go forward...
