These are some random pics of my two youngest brothers. For those who don't know the tall blond one is 2 almost 3 year old Anders (Spidey). The shorter redhead is 1 and a half Jorgen.

Mother Nature's Art by Kaia

I've been reading Zandra's blog lately and have noticed that she often talks of all of the beautiful nature in Tennesee. Well, I wanted everyone to know that we have a lot of nature up north here in Illinois, too.

Spidey loves to put on any pair of sunglasses he can find. Most of the time they are several sizes too big:] Then he'll jump on his bike and try to run over Jorgen.;]

This is a picture of Helena in one of her favorite outfits! In this picture she's missing a couple of teeth, but most of them have grown back.

December 2008

Jorgen's 1st Birthday. Kaia decorated the cake by herself and we had a small party with our friends, the Andersons, the Jensens, and the Fetters. Here's Jorgen with Aunt Melody.
All the kids wanted to make Get Well cards for Aunt Jo and I caught them all having a good time together while they were working on the cards.
Christmas Eve and we all had the stomach flu. Jason was out late at night looking for an open store to buy diapers since we had run out. Even though we felt icky, we were still having fun together.
Spidey and Jorgen. You can see here that Spidey's eyes have turned green like Jason's.

Seriously, look at this hair! I've tried everything to get it to lay down - hair gel, hairspray, etc. and it just makes it worse. Jason calls him "Syndrome" from The Incredibles. I admit I see the resemblance.
