Big Brother is so funny!

This clip captures Elise's giggle, compliments of the hilarious John Patrick. (Turn up your sound!) He is absolutely WONDERFUL at entertaining her-- I'm so grateful. Maybe I should be bolting down the baby swing, though.

Me and my big brother

More bro/sis shots, more indecision about which are the cutest:

I can't decide which of these is cutest...

Grandparents are GOOD!

Tom and Sue (aka, Grandpa and Grandma Mooney) came for a weekend of grandkid bonding. We potty trained (JP), teethed (Elise) and broke in some new Kipper movies (all of us)! I'm happy to say that JP has not had an accident in recent memory (even at night!) and Elise's second tooth just poked through (9/3/08). What do we have, like 18 more to go???

I love the progression of Sue's face in the next two photos, proof of teething:

Future Roommates



One of my college roommates and dear friends Angela had a baby shower in Dallas in early August. We had a mini reunion, sans Kimi. (We missed you-- Elise was not happy to stand in for you!) Kristin's daughter Audrey was born just days after Elise... we figure they'll make great roommates at the Kappa house in 18 years. Aren't they just precious? Congrats, Ang, we're so excited for y'all and your baby BOY! He'll have to keep an eye out for the new 1001 Bright Circle Trouble.

Look at the gleam in her eyes, folks. They both love this new game.

Bath time fun

John Patrick and his friend, Kadyn, just sharing a bath, singing "Jesus Loves Me", and, of course, the alphabet song. Life is absolutely hilarious some days...
