Super Mario EJ



Recently EJ has become obsessed with playing Super Mario Brothers Wii. Daddy and Uncles like it too, so whatever they do EJ needs to do. He is slowly learning, but sometimes his excitement gets the best of him. This is a short video of Paco and EJ playing the game. Notice how he jumps the entire time he is playing. I guess it's a good way of getting exercise while playing a video game.

The Magic House

This past week EJ, Molly and I took a short drive down to St. Louis to meet up with some of our friends from Ohio. We had a tasty lunch and then headed to the Magic House, which is a wonderful children's museum. The kids had SUCH a fun time and the Mama's enjoyed catching up and having some grown up conversation.

Molly rolling around in her brace

At home in her new brace

The casts are off but Molly still isn't 100% free of hip support. She now has a brace to wear, but at least the brace is removable. Currently she is allowed an hour in the morning and an hour at night plus baths and diaper changes free of the brace. We go back to the doctor in a month and she will hopefully approve Molly to just need the brace at nights and nap times.


The brace has one velcro strap that goes around her belly and two around the thighs

The brace helps keep her hip in proper alignment

The back is hard plastic to help support her legs

At the doctors office

Today was a very important day in our family...Molly got her cast off! We are so excited to hear from the doctor that her hip is looking solid and growing into a normal socket. This is a short video of how excited she was once that cast came off.

Dear Fisher Price,

Dear Fisher Price,

I believe we now own roughly 90% of the GeoTrax line. A frequent buyer program or some stock in the company would be lovely. Please do not put out any new trains or we will have to add on a room to whatever house we eventually buy.



Paco and EJ put this great set together


This set-up has every accessory and all but 3 of our pieces of track

Finally enough hair to get a bow in...and, of course, a scrunchy face

Bouncy, bouncy, bounce






Molly woke up from her morning nap in a very good mood today. She has recently started bouncing up and down on her toes and thinks this is the most hilarious thing ever. I couldn't help getting a few videos of my smiley, giggly girl.
