a common seen

 e is so glad when daddy comes home.

that means it is time for their daily ball toss from coffee table to chair.

just look at e's cute little face! 

i love it so.

i am so grateful for this father son time.

it is so important and although i love love love that he is a mama's boy,

i am happy that they have something that is all there own.

family pictures

we finally were able to go in and have some new family pictures taken! it was totally worth taking care of jamie's zoo for a few days to get some darling, current pictures of my clan. the pictures of the littles turned out extra adorable. Her are a few of my favorites:

keeping it fair

 mr. e started to notice that our new dog charley was eating his food along with betty's. 

 in his own little boy process he realized how unfair that was and has since been a quest to make sure betty gets her share.

 he will reach bravely reach into charleys bowl and retrieve a handful for betty. 

he then will place it on the floor for her.

 betty is very grateful.

and this boy of mine is too cute.

it kills me.

i just want to smother him in kisses.
