B-A-N-A-N-A-S

Rachael told me a funny story about Lily the other day--that she saw a commercial for bananas on t.v., then pointed to Rach, had her follow her into the kitchen, and pointed at the bananas on the counter. She is a little smarty pants! Lily also loves to read. She is a little dramatic, though! I also got some cute pictures when Becca came down for Labor Day. These are some of my favorites of Mia. She's so photogenic! We went to Rumbi's with Dave, Lex & Noah. This one is a classic of the little man. I can't believe his 1st birthday is this week! Craziness! I also can't believe my 6-month-old weighs more than he does. But then, he also weighs more than Shelly's little girl, who is about 15 months old. What do you do? He's kinda crazy and very demanding when he's hungry! These aren't very high quality, but there are more pics to be seen on my Picasa album. I also just want to extol the virtues of Picasa 3. Download it here. For example, here is what this cute picture looked like before (BTW, I took these pictures while feeding him bananas this afternoon): And this is the "after" shot: I have been getting a little obsessive with the pictures, but it's pretty cool what a little program can do, eh? Picasa does drive me nuts sometimes, but version 3.0 is very nice. I'm pretty pathetic. I really want a DSLR (a big fat Canon with real lenses and the whole outfit), but I really can't justify it. *sigh* Someday.
