Friends!

We had such a nice visit with our friends last weekend. Erin, Sareana and Alex Kelly came down from Portland to thaw out a little. We had a great time watching the boys play together. They hadn't seen each other since Jake was about 4 or 5 months old. They got along great! We wish they lived closer to us, but hopefully with airline daddy's we can keep seeing each other periodically. 

The boys at the "kid" table

Eating lettuce out of the garden - yummy! 

Playing with trucks 

Erin reading to the boys before bed (another great Daddy!)

Posing after the McDowell Mtn bike race

If there is anything better than bike shorts and helmets, it is our husbands dancing in their lovely outfits :-) Wish this was video!

Baby Murphy

Here is a picture of Baby Murphy at 35 weeks .. big fat cheeks for us to pinch in a few weeks!

He/she is smiling in the bottom picture :-)

Jake is 2!

One of Jake's (and Dad's) favorite activities is reading together before bed. I know this isn't a birthday picture - but it was taken right around his birthday and fit in with this posting :-)

 Jake has perfected the art of smiling for the camera, complete with a cheesey grin. Here he is having a birthday cupcake - or maybe just smearing it on his face. I'm nor sure if any of it made it into his mouth.

 Playing with blocks on his birthday - and another pose for the camera

Playing with Mom in the new Thomas Tent - Thanks Aunt Amy and Uncle Steve, Macie, Maddie & Mylie!

Jake and Tommy eating frosting .. yum yum!

January fun

Here we are after Brian's 12 hour race in Tempe this past Saturday. He did a great job! 

Jake and I like to watch him have fun on his bike.

 Jake and I eating some grapefruit - Jake likes to ham it up for the camera these days .. 

he is definitely not camera shy!

I know he'll be mad when he's older, but how can I not share this one? 

Christmas! (No, I couldn't think of a better title)

Jake standing on the baby - 30 weeks along here
