Pictures Liam took
Despite the fact that he got a beautiful camera for Christmas, he took these with mine. Vote for your favourite.
Random outside fun
Being parents to two kids versus one has taught us an important lesson. There is no time for anything. Not even for updating the blog. So here are a few photos of springtime fun for now. Because really, we'd rather be outside playing with the kids.

Happy first birthday Lily
Lily turned one on April 21. Where did that year go?? On April 20, we had a big party with most of her favourite people (except for the ones who were out of town or working.. you know who you are!!). Lily had a great time. We all did.
Here is the obligatory "stuffing my face with cake" shot.
And here's the happy crew.
Thanks, everyone, for making Lily's special day so special!Wednesday, April 16, 2008

Computer wizard
Here is Liam on my computer (aka: mommy's pomputer). I put up with the sticky mouse and fingerprinted screen because he has so much fun playing on it, and I even catch him learning from time to time.Over the past six months or so, he has become increasingly proficient at computing. It's actually a little bit scary. Not only can he manipulate the mouse like he was born with it in his hand, he can open up Firefox (two clicks on the orange marble), go to the bookmarks menu, select the specific website he wants to visit from the list of "his" sites (there are eight of them) and then navigate around to the games, videos, and other features. When he gets bored, he simply selects another site and away he goes.
Sometimes the games involve math or reading, which are a bit beyond his reach at this time, but with a little help he does just fine. I'm sure Lily will take to it just as easily. And then they can both teach me.
