What the kids are up to.

Elise has finally decided to be more photogenic. She has never liked having her picture taken, but lately whenever I get my camera out, she smiles.
She is already starting to crawl. She has mastered the army crawl, but still working hard at getting up on her knees. She does that cute little rock back and forth all the time.
She is very motivated to go really fast when she see something she wants. Which usually is Dallin cars, the phone, or in this case the remote.


Dallin LOVES to play letters. Ever since he learned the alphabet and then learned to recognize the letters he has done this. He thinks it is so fun to sit on the computer and types letters and numbers.
Dallin also has a new found love for the US map. I bought him a map placemat and he loves to ask about the states. He has gotten really good at remember most all the states too; in just a few days. He never ceases to amaze me. You just point to a state and he will tell you the name. He is acting pretty silly since he had a camera in his face, but you get the idea. He actually answered a map question on “Are you Smarter than a Fifth Grader” the other day too! He flipped it over and found the state flags on the other side and now he is asking which one belongs to which state and he know about 8 of those too. He’s so cute!One more bragging moment, Dallin can now spell his name. I taught him one morning and by the time Jon came home he could do it all by himself. He apparently got Jon's love for learning!
Being cute!
Getting frustrated
Eating! Elise loves to eat. She is such a natural too.
Just Chillin.
