oooo....Why'd you slice off my hand?

This situation was also documented by JuggleDoug. A couple weeks ago the Royals came over with their children Isaac and Lily. At some point both Isaac and Craig picked up inflatable lightsabers. After about a half hour of prompting we were finally able to realize the dream of our children having a lightsaber duel. Ok, the video only caught the tail end of it, but you can tell by us laughing that it was a good fight before I started filming. Craig and Isaac had been at it a while, so when Isaac says "Please no" it is more about being done playing than being pwned. (I promise the video works)



If you haven't seen it before, or just want to remember, I highly recommend the Star Wars Gangsta Rap Special Edition.

Craig vs. the Box

Moving into a new house creates lots of boxes. One day we unloaded a particularly large one and tossed Craig into it just to see what would happen. Something cute happened of course.

Ho Baby!

Announcement time: We are expecting Baby #2 August 21st! We are excited and no, we aren't finding out what it is. Surprises are fun.

Craig has been very cute recently and I have lots of videos to share. Unfortunately I have to iron out some technical problems first. But after that there will be some amazing videos coming your way!

Our House, in the middle of our street

We are very excited to announce we have moved into a our very own house! It is one story with a pretty kickin' basement. 3 bed 2 bath upstairs with another bed and bath in the basement. It is in St. Peters near 70 and Mid Rivers Mall Dr. A very special thanks to all those who helped us move including: our parents, Tommy, Lisa, Christian, Annette, Ken, Scott and Susan. If I forgot anyone, that would be really bad cause it is probably a family member. Now on to the pics! First, you will notice the nice layer of snowfall we ordered especially for the move.



This is the front. My first job as a homeowner was to shovel snow. Joy.



The backyard. There are doors to the basement and the kitchen. Very good size, great for impromptu games of soccer and wiffle ball.



This is a pic of the steps leading down from the kitchen door. Ummm...imagine wooden steps.



Craig loves the house. He ran around exploring for the first half hour we were there. This is a pic of him playing with his Little People for the very first time! (We have owned them for over a year now.)



You Rock! You earned $2000. Deductions include:
- $200 Clothes, strewn about.
- $300 Milk, spilt.
- $500 Diapers, pooped in.
Your cut: $500. (for college of course)

Off Line for a while.

Just an update, we are without internet for the next 2 weeks. So unless I hijack someone's computer and download some pics, we won't have any new pics for a while.

But when we get this straightened out we will get lots of pictures up. I promise.

The Matrix has you.

Much has happened in the month of January. First, Tania's Saturn died the day after Christmas. That was no good. But, we were able to find a 2004 Toyota Matrix for a good price! It is listed as a mini-wagon and is good for trasporting people and stuff. Tania loves it! Here are some pictures.




Craig wanted a car too, and who are we to argue?



Drive fast son. Drive fast.

And, because I feel bad about not posting in a while, you get a pic of Craig in the bathtub.



Someday, when Craig is wanting to date, we won't have to pull out a photo album of embarassing pictures. I will just hand the young lady a web address. I love the internet!

Snow, presents and Christmas time fun.

Craig's second Christmas was a blast. We went to 4 family Christmas parties as well as spent time with all the grandparents. Here is the visual proof.



This was Craig's first venture into the snow. He really liked it, until he fell facefirst into the snow. Then he cried until we took him in. It's a start.



This is Craig ready for Christmas Eve. Different than being ready for the snow.



Craig and his cousin Jesse play with Craig' new dog xylophone with the Mantias.



Craig, Cousin Meg and Grandpa Willmann at the Willmann party.



What did Santa bring? It's a red wagon full of presents! Craig loves his wagon and gets mad if you stop pulling him around the basement.



Grandma and Grandpa Willmann gave Craig the blue Dragon-chair. Craig likes to run up and give it a big hug.



This is a video of Craig playing with his new golf clubs in a....well....trash can. We dubbed it "churning the butter." Daddy and Grandpa Willmann are commenting. Ignote the screaming by Mom and Aunt Maureen in the background. They were playing the Wii.
