Family....Ahh!

I just wanted to post some photos of our latest activities. The photos of damian is the night and day he spent at our house. It was so fun babysitting, I truly got to pretend the I was a mom. I think I really like the feeling. I can say that until that time, I just really liked kids. But since babysitting Damian, it was just so fun to play with him, watch him play and talk and sleep. It was amazing to see this wonderful little boy grow up. Nate and I had agreed before we were married that we would wait for 5 years before we considered children.....this may change after our weekend with Damian. He cried only once the whole time....and that was because he didnt want to take a bath...i can deal with a dirty kid for a day or two. ha ha

I posted a few photos of Damian making this funny face..kind of like he is putting all his might into trying to break the item in his hands. I love it...the face is accompanied with this funny grunt that I just can't seem to describe. If I could have a boy just like Damian, I would forfeit our deal to wait. He is truly a joy....on top of that, I think that N8 has really found a true friend in our family. Nate and N8 get along so great and Laura and I are closer than I ever thought possible. I think that when we lived together, it was always Laura telling us that we were too young or that we couldnt borrow her stuff. now whenever we visit, it is like none of us can stop talking, we just have so much to talk about and so much to always catch up on. i love going to visit them and not worrying about becoming bored...it is just fun.

Anyway, here are some photos of Damian at Mom and Dad's house playing Dominoes and hanging out with Grandpa. One of my favorites is the one where damian is trying to big up the gian stack of dominoes and ends up collapsing the whole thing. i had to include Eem's picture because he is playing Scrabble with Becca on Facebook.

I also posted some other photos...i think it was bryce's birthday....I may be wrong, maybe just a sunday dinner. It was in Feb sometime. Eliska is wearing Eem's raquetball goggles (we had gone to play raquetball earlier for Danny's birthday). And Chiska had just finished picking hunadu's face and was showing his cute 16 year old butt to everyone.

Hope this will help everyone feel included in our life a little more of the fun we are having living so near to family.
