Tron Be Gone

The kids and I took our last trip to Phoenix Children's Hospital this week (on his 7-month-old b-day) and Dray's head is officially helmet free! Hooray! The upside is that he no longer has to wear a tight, sweaty, stinky helmet. The downside is that without the protection of the helmet, he's bonked his head about six times. He insists on pulling himself to a stand on everything around him and then trying to walk. He also seems to crawl at the speed of light. He is without a doubt one of those busy babies who wants to get into everything, pull everything down, and attempt as many physical stunts as possible. I don't think he has a cautious bone in his lil' body. It's even hard to get him to stay still long enough for me to feed him in his highchair. He is constantly squirming and trying to escape.
Alan and Ellie are enjoying their summer break. Alan loves staying in his PJs and getting his fill of computer and video games. He'd be happy if he never had to leave the house again. He's been a great help with his little bro. lately. He sits next to him while we drive and stays vigilant on pacifier patrol. He also keeps and eye on him while I straighten up the house.
Ellie has been busy practicing for her play. She'll be playing the queen in Snow White next Friday evening with Copperstar Theater Company. She's been working hard to memorize her lines and get into her "evil" character. I think I've heard "Mirror, mirror on the wall," atleast 200 times this week.

And now...in the spirit of the recent Lost Finale, Lana created this photoshop masterpiece. Hee hee.
