Well, I’ve been getting some disgruntled calls from family members due to an apparent lack of pictures on this blog.  My suggestions to “get on facebook!  I post a lot more pictures there!” were met with silence, and I’m pretty sure that my justification of how crazy busy we have been recently is far from a valid excuse for the grand and great-grandparents.  And so, here we go.  A slew of pictures from my fancy new iPhone, lovingly gifted to me by Matt last week.  Why, yes- this girl has finally made the leap into the 21st century.  Why in the heck did I wait so long?  Anyway… the pictures:

gotta document this: the “big kids” started back-to-back swimming lessons this week, so I have some time to kill with Elizabeth while waiting for them.  thankfully, the pool has an adjacent “splash park”, but I was almost certain that the girl would be terrified of the water spraying and spurting everywhere.  WRONG.  she loved it!  unbelievable.
