nothing in particular

so, i don't really have anything particular to post. i thought i'd share a few somewhat recent pics & a couple of videos from this week. both of the boys got their haircut a few weeks ago. trip told me that he liked his hair short better, so we may have seen the end of his cool-dude long hair.... at least until he is a pre-teen or teenager & he goes thru a phase thinking long hair is rebellious & cool. enjoy the pics & the videos!


this was trip before his summer haircut, the next shows him afterwards

and the brother wrestling matches have begun



quinn has finally 'pinned' his big brother

trip enjoying a nice day outside!


here are a couple of short videos of the little man. he is such a smart kid. his vocabulary is amazing to us and he is learning so much everyday. he can count to 4 already by himself & will count to 10 with us alternating the numbers (ex: he counts to 4, then i say 5 & 6, he will say 7, i say 8, he says 9 & 10). for a 17 mth old, that is pretty good. he is counting in the 1st video below & doing his lizard impression in the 2nd video. the 2nd video is a little dark... hopefully you can see it.

All my little boys are brilliant! I am just constantly amazed. I agree with Amber, I have seen that lizard before too :D

Love all the videos and pics.
Quinn is a genius, just like his big brother:)

The post made me realize how long it's been since I have seen them... they look so big to me...:(

Wow, what a smart little man! Grace likes to count as well, but you can't understand her yet. AND, she does the lizard tongue thing as well! I can't get it on camera though! Oh, and I like Tripp's summmer cut-he looks like a different kid!

My 7th graders laughed hysterically at the lizard. I was thinking maybe you forgot your password or something since you were depriving me of seeing my favorite boys!

I noticed you changed your wording of your title...I was trying to figure out if imparticular was a word or if I'd been saying it wrong all this time!! :-)

rachel-- funny... chuck said, did you do that on purpose or were you just trying to be funny? it made me laugh... i totally meant in particular. imparticular isn't a word, as it turns out. although, i did a google search for it & it came up.... a lot.... like over 21,000 occurances. it was even part of a discussion within the American Dialect Society. so maybe it isn't a real word... but maybe an americanized slang version?????

Amy-
Thanks for the comment on my blog :) I have to confess, I am a fellow stalker also... It's nice to "meet" you!!! Your boys are absolutely adorable, I like following their adventures!! I actually have Nikki to thank for starting me on blogging and now I'm hooked on it!!!

We had so much fun in St. Louis. I can't wait to take Nora back to the Magic House when she's a little older, I think she'll LOVE it.

Take care and feel free to visit our blog anytime!!

Hey Amy,

I am glad you wrote on our blog so we could find you and meet your family. What cute fellas you have! I am looking forward to being a mama of a son and I am thinking you are a pro now and could teach me a few things!

Take care- Mary Katherine

Amy,
Your boys are so precious! Looks like they have a lot of fun together! Isn't wrestling funny? Our girls wrestle too!
