They better stay blue or ELSE





James' eyes are very blue. But I guess because I am not a professional photographer in a nice white studio with great lighting, his eye color sort of gets lost in the photos I take. Well here is a random one of him eating and for once you can see how blue his eyes are!

Sorry I have been so bad about posting lately. James is a little over 7 months and just got his first tooth and is crawling everywhere! His favorite person is Reese and he can just watch her all day long. Reese is talking in sentences now (although she is pretty shy so you will probably not hear it if you aren't me, Jeff, or Mimi!). Everything is "AMAZING!" and she just discovered carrying her baby around the house in the Bjorn. She loves to swing at the park on her tummy, blow bubbles in the pool, and play with "baby jaze" (as she calls James). Every time she gives kisses she has to kiss you once, then hug, then kiss again. It's hilarious!

It's Not Working...

Reese's new thing lately has been to point out things that are not working.

*Every time she colors with the light beige crayon, she runs it over to me and says "Mommy it's not working" (it is just so light she cannot see it color on the paper).

*We have several toys out of batteries and she is always quick to point out to James, "It's not working" (said in a cute childish voice with an emphasis on "wor" in working).

*Our neighbor Deanna gave Reese a ring that lights up and when Reese cannot turn it properly, she brings it to me saying "it's not working".

Well this next story, I am sure Reese will kill me when she is older and sees I blogged about this. Today she told me she wanted to use the potty. I put her on the potty and she sat there a minute. She usually pee pees right away. Well this time, she pointed to her private part and exclaimed, "It's not working!". She says it a few more times all the while pointing in between her legs and I am pretty much dying laughing. I told her to push real hard and then she started to pee pee with a huge smile across her face. I guess she got it working again...:)
