Jake adores his daddy

I can't blame you, baby. I feel the same way about him, the same way!


February 21, 2001

Oh, the wonderful help

I get every. single. day organizing my bathroom. How in the world this is still adorable?

Natulya's new hairstyle and stylist

She stayed with Jake half of the day today, while we attended the funeral. Fed him, changed him, played with him, and put him down for his naps, all by herself. Such a huge help she is. Nate, obviously, found her deserving of a nice hairstyle!

Playing cowboy

I love his pose here.



February 18, 2009

I know, very original

February 17, 2009

He is really NOT a good eater

and that is why I was so excited to take this picture. Besides, he definitely does not look girly here.

February 16, 2009

My Cutie Pie

I think he looks like a girl here, oh how I love this sweet face!

Our Valentine's Day breakfast

February 14, 2009

OK, I am done,

please take the bottle


February 13, 2009

Yep,

he even eats while he is reading


February 12, 2009

Something is fishy

Today it seems like that's the only thing he wants to eat


February 11, 2009

Should I do it?

Should I try it? It looks nice and bright...

Oh, no! I should have listened to that small voiceFebruary 10, 2009

I talked Natalie into being a girl of the day

Glued...

Baby Einstein edition (note Nate's bored face, he'd rather watch something else)

Helping daddy

Whenever and wherever somebody is doing something that includes using tools Nate would be right in the middle of the action.

Cool specs, cool dude

Not feeling well today

February 5, 2009

It was such a gorgeous day, we played outside long enough for me to take so many pictures that I could not narrow down to one.

A Rare Moment

This is definitely a rare moment and I am so happy to have caught it. In fact, the very next moment they... never mind

February 3, 2009

That is how I see you...

Praying...

before leaving for church. Nate ALWAYS prays before we go anywhere. "Иисус, храни нас эту по дороге..." Too cute!

Hanging out

they are so much alike and have loads of fun together

And he is not even a teenager

He found a dollar in Nat's room. Our conversation went like this:
-Нэйт, что это у тебя?
-Деньга
-А зачем она тебе?
-Буду покупать... пиццу

January 29, 2009

Intimidating

I am so glad he is not like that in real life. He looks so not 12 here

January 28, 2009

Miss Nat..

right before going to bed, well, she is in the bed, then right before going to sleep. She still wants me to tuck her in. Love it!

January 27, 2009

pick up time

Jake actually picks them up and puts them in the bin

January 26, 2009

Stealing the show

We celebrated grandma's 80th birthday and right after we finished singing the Happy Birthday song, Nate jumped in and blew the candles
