Keepin' Busy

A few weeks ago Miss Elianna and her mommy came for a visit. James is just mesmerized by the lovely Elianna and her thick hair. He wanted to poke and touch her so badly! I told Kristen that if Pan*tene started a baby line of shampoo, her daughter could have a job doing commercials! :)
Last weekend we attended an ethnic festival here in town. Here's James chowing on a fresh tortilla from Colombia!
We walked through the booths (selling cuisine from tens of different countries) with Ricky, Kristen, and baby Elianna. I took the opportunity to get a family picture squeezed in.
Silly boy! He's been wearing the same size pants for months now. I don't think he's gaining much because he's always on the move! He loves to look out the front window to see the mail lady in her truck or our neighbor mowing the lawn!
This started two nights ago. This is James pretending he's talking on the phone. All we have to do is say, 'oh, hello?' and he puts his hand up by his ear. And yes, that's a grain of rice in his hair.

Oh so many things to say!!!

1. I was going to comment on Elianna's hair before I even started reading! I can tell she has hispanic blood!!!

2. I heard from my cousin that there was Bolivian food at an ethnic food thing in KC recently...was it the same one you went to??? and if so I'm SO jealous!

3. LOVE that James pretends to talk on the phone. Be careful soon he'll discover that your cell phones are better than any toy he owns!

Wish I lived closer and could come visit him (and you and Mark!)

Oh he sounds like such a little ham now! Is he sleeping through the night yet? Please say yes, please say yes, please says yes (Ainsley still isn't).
