The Gang!


We are now clearly outnumbered by this roving band of crazy kids! Mia is the de facto leader, and makes certain to lead them towards trouble whenever possible... The twins are quite happy to defer to her, and in fact do their best to emulate her at every turn. They sure love their leader! So do we...

Intellectual Boy?!?!


I'm not sure who Big Boy is trying to fool, but we Lovell boys aren't known for our overwhelming intellectual prowess... Perhaps he'll be the first to change that! He sat down at Daddy's computer the other night and threw an absolute fit when anyone tried to prevent him from doing his work. What a ham this kid is!

Aubs Kisses!




Our sweet little angel just loves to give kisses! Only problem is that unlike her brother who gives sweet little kisses, she tries to shove her tongue in your mouth... She always finds her own path!

The Yarmulke Queen!


We all know how much Mia likes to pretend that she is a boy! Well, she took it to a new level last week at services. When she saw them passing out Yarmulkes to all the men & boys, she decided she absolutely must wear one... Who am I to ruin a little girls dreams?! So here she is sporting her beanie with her best friend Easton! Too cute...

Happy Holidays!


For the High Holidays we took the kids to Temple and then had a Tot Shabbat party in the auditorium. Mia had a blast dancing and singing along, while the twins... Oh yeah, they slept through the whole thing! You can see Big Boy lounging in his stroller above, next to his sister! It was amazingly loud in that room, and they snoozed through the whole thing... Those kids can sleep through anything!

SHE WALKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


After a very long 19 months, we are excited to announce that Aubrey is fully walking!!!!! For several months she's been taking a few steps here & there, and then quickly going back to her routine crawling. But this past week she finally stood up, started walking, and hasn't stopped... I know this may not sound like much, but it is huge for us! We're very proud of our little Aubs!

Mia's Fort!


Mia has been wanting to build a new fort lately. So Daddy & Mia spent some time at Home Depot designing a new fort, and gathering the necessary materials. Then today we spent the whole afternoon cutting & assembling the new fort. We used painters drop cloth for the walls and roof so that the kids would be able to 'grafiti' it. They were so exicted to take markers to the finished product and do exactly what they are always told not to do... It really turned out great, and Mia was very proud of her finished product. There's pretty much nothing she enjoys as much as working with tools, except maybe eating chocolate!!

Brandon's Baby?!


Brandon is clearly surrounded by too many women! He is now taking 'Honey Bear' for walks in his stroller... Good lord, we need to save this boy's dignity and manhood!
