Life Moves On

We have been very busy since school started up again. Willy goes to school and work for most of the day during the week. Sheri wrestles with the kids. She gets all the fun (hahaha). Isabella talks incessantly and is on an emotional roller coaster right now. However, it is not hard to look beyond those things when she laughs and plays with you. She is a beautiful and intelligent girl. Luke loves to smile and coo. If you get him started he can go on and on - it is a lot of fun.


Yes - Jedi training starts early

Being baby is so tiring. This was our 5th anniversary event - to go to the National Arboretum.

Isabella does not seem to favor the law - but her artistic abilities are coming to bloom.

Snapshots in Time

Life with a new child is crazy. We love his sweet spirit. Isabella is a big help as well. She gives her parents grief at times due to her independent will but she is all-in-all a wonderful girl. She loves Luke and finds great pride in helping Mom with him. Here are some pictures of our growing family.

He is so cute!!!

She's an American girl.

Enjoying Harper's Ferry - Dad, Bug, and G'ma Snow

First day of church - he is warming up for a big (and long) cry that almost talked Mom and Dad out of going to church. But we are glad we went.

My Aquatic Family

Both Sheri and Bug love the water. Sheri was even saying that she wanted the baby to wait to come so that she could swim as long as she could. Buggy has been learning to put her head in the water and kick her legs around.

Bug has adjusted well to the arrival of Luke. She misses Mom (and so do I). But she loved having Nona and Noko around. She is a busy body. She can't help but touch everything in sight. Bug also loves to repeat everything.

"You've Taken Your First Step into a Larger World"

We are happy to announce the grand arrival of our beautiful boy, Luke Hamilton Snow. "Grand" arrival is quite a fitting description considering that he was 9 lbs. 14 oz. and 21 inches long. He is a big boy. We were just trying to compete for news with two other famous babies that were born on July 12 (the Brangelina twins). Mama and Luke are doing well and are in the hospital. Sheri's mom and grandma, Nona and Noko, were here to help with Buggy. They flew home Sunday afternoon though. Hope you enjoy the pictures.

Big Family Breakfast

One of the tradition that our family has (thanks to Sheri) is Big Family Breakfast. On Saturday morning Daddy sleeps in (or pretends to) while Mom makes breakfast. We usually have blueberry muffins and orange juice. Bug leaves her mark on the breakfast, usually in the form of watered down orange juice. We love to have her participate. We hope she turns out to be a great cook one day (so that she can feed us when we can no longer do it ourselves).

Beautiful Girl

I know that we often use the term "beautiful girl" in reference to Isabella but if its true its true. She is growing up everyday. She is sporting the hand-made dress that G'ma Nona sent to her in this picture. Pay attention to her hands in this picture - she loves her chapstick. She asks for chapstick on a regular basis. Fortunately, she no longer eats it.

Nona's Package

Buggy always gets so excited about a package (don't we all). Lucky Nona is always winning lotteries and contests. I have never won a contest in my life and yet she always seems to win them. It is quite amazing. But things are looking up for us - G''ma now wins them and gives us the loot (with some extras). All items are now living in various corners of our house.
