John and the camera

John had a little fun taking some self portraits.




















He also took a picture of Uncle Paul doing some work.


And last but not least, he took several pictures of his baby sister.

John and Eliana

John just loves his new baby sister. He always wants to hold her and loves to shower her with hugs and smooches.

Visit from Uncle Paul

Visit from Aunt Ashley

Eliana Nicole has arrived

Farewell Uncle Trent

Trent had a layover in Seattle on his way to Utah. We picked him up and hung out for a few hours. John really wanted to take him home with us, but he had to settle with the sweet bucket of dinosaurs his uncle brought him.

Gum

We bought John some gum at the store today. He was snacking on some apple slices and somehow the gum ended up in his hair.

He was a little upset.....


So I slapped a little peanut butter in his hair......


And he was happy again......

Cousins!

John's cousins came up to Washington for a visit and he had a blast with them! We will see them again in July and they will get to meet their new cousin, Maya, before we move to Florida.

Sledding in Alaska

While Mom was resting, John went sledding with daddy and Uncle Steven at UAF. It was 5 degrees ABOVE zero today, so they were excited to get some fresh air.

It's a GIRL!!!

Baby girl Barona is due March 10th, 2007!

First Day of Preschool

Happy Birthday Daddy!

John got his temporary ID card today. We are traveling to Alaska in December and decided to get him one.

Thanks Liam

I put John down for his nap this afternoon and as I was walking by the window I noticed something shiny on the ground outside. Upon closer inspection, I noticed that the shiny stuff was little pieces of my broken window. GRRR!

Immigration March

Downtown Seattle.

Short visit

Uncle Jeremy and Aunt Terra had a short layover in Seattle on their way home from Jamaica so we met them at the airport and had lunch together.

Good-Bye Old Jetta

I love this car and I don't want to sell it, but we bought a newer Jetta last month and this one has to go. :(

Good-Bye Aunt Ashley

We are sad to report that Ashley moved back to Alaska today.

This is just before we took her to the airport. :(
