The many moods of Garrett the hand chewer

Eating

Ellie eating cereal (cee do do) Garrett eating cereal (some of it, most of it ends up on the bouncy chair and bib)

Frosty eating his lunch. He's a very healthy, vegetarian penguin

I Looooove my brother

Life in the fast lane

Garrett and Ian taking a cat nap. It was a long night. Garrett has started rolling over and he prefers to be free and easy to do so. Who wouldn't.

Oh look, he loves Elmo just like his sister (no I don't really sit him in front of the TV in case anyone worries about this, it was a great photo op)

I did not see that part coming... Drool Master Garrett

It's time for Ellie to run and play at the Little Gym

We started going to the Little Gym in December. Ellie really enjoys running and climbing and playing and she narrates it as she goes. The following are her words... Ellie running

Ellie flying (sounds like frying)
