It's probably a good thing...

...that Daddy isn't home for lunch most days. Although a second set of hands would be very helpful for cleanup.

Guess what Cora is dreaming about

Uncle Marcus & Aunt Shanna's visit

WAY back on the first weekend in February, Uncle Marcus and Aunt Shanna came all the way down from Chicago to see us.

Thank you, Grandma Steele

Joel's mom made matching jumpers for the girls. Cousin Naomi has one, too! (Remember that you can click on a picture if you want to see a bigger version of it.)

Isn't she cute?

Since big sister may seem to be more interesting right now, I wanted to make sure Cora got a little web space too.

Sisters

Daddy and his girls

Just the right size

"It seems like I overheard Mommy saying she wanted to rearrange the things in this cabinet... and maybe misplace some of them too."

Killer Remote Control Robot

Nevermind the screaming baby in the background.

Cardinals Winter Warm-Up

Tom Ewing, one of our good friends from First Christian, came down to St. Louis this weekend to attend the Cardinals Winter Warm-up. Stephi and I had the chance to have dinner with him Friday night and since he had an extra pass, I took Mim on Saturday to attend the event as well. I forgot my camera and had to make do with the camera phone, but here's Mim and Fred Bird bonding.

Afterwards Tom came over to our place to visit for a while. Tom and Mim share a soft spot in each others hearts. It has been quite a bit of fun to see them together again.

St. Louis Cardinals

Here's a male and female cardinal on the tree in our back yard.

Big helper

Thanks for the help Cora.

This is the life

You can't see her, but mommy is sitting on the couch behind us. We're all watching soap operas. This is how it is when daddy is at work.

Nappy nap time

Fashion Show

Daddy and me after church

Here's my hip outfit that Uncle Marcus and Aunt Shanna gave me for Christmas. I'm so cool.

Old car seat

Since the "new one" (Cora) has come along my old car seat has reappeared. I wondered where it went. It's not quite as comfortable as I remember it.

And this hat doesn't fit anymore.

Christmas with the Steeles

The whole Steele family was in StL for the New Years weekend. Of the four days everyone was here, this was about the only picture our camera took. Check out http://micahsteele.blogspot.com/ for some more

LOTS of hugs and kisses for baby sister

These scenes are continually repeated at our house every day. Miriam absolutely adores Cora.
