SAHM

I think if I could choose it any way I'd like it, I'd work full-time the first 4-5 months (at an office with a couch) and then stay home after that, because who would want to leave this...

100% Sweet.

Life just doesn't get any sweeter than this. I could watch this little clip 1,000 times and then watch it again. Notice his facial expressions, especially when he gives the baby doll a little squeeze. I am so in love.

And Now You're 4!

Kind of hot, kind of full of mosquitoes, but still really fun.

We painted t-shirts, an idea we stole from awesome Aunt Amy, everybody's shirts looked colorful, messy and great.

Cousin Kai thought it was just fine to paint a few more shirts!

Every person who was more than three feet tall ended up helping at this party--this made for two super grateful parents!

Eleanor was flooded with fabulous gifts, which was a little overwhelming (like Christmas on steroids) and she flew through them shouting "thanks!" and then turning to me asking, "what else?" This was a little embarrassing for me but I'm told it's pretty typical for a four-year-old birthday queen.

Overall, turning four was exciting. Oh! And I almost forgot, her big gift from Mom and Dad was a bike. I'm hoping to post some video of her biking after this weekend. Big stuff in the Johnson/Granstrom house!

Big Sister....Big Baby!

This picture makes me laugh. He is just sooo big!

7 Months

People have been asking or commenting a lot lately on how much Colin does or doesn't look like Ellie did at this age. I thought it would be fun to post some pics comparing the two of them at 7 months.
