Zeke is ready to go on the car ride.

Check out Grandma and Stazi!

Vroom!

Zeke liked the red car best.

Grandma and Stazi are still hanging out.

...and taking some pictures.

Vroom, part 2!

Zeke driving in his car (I think the ride is over; he looks pretty sulky.)

Zeke reluctantly models his new "frog hat". Actually a grasshopper hat, but you try correcting a determined two-year-old.

Whee!

Zeke is the most stylish toddler on this ride.

More zooming.

Even more zooming.

Mommy takes a train ride with Zeke!

And a swing ride! (We had to go on this ride twice.)

Zeke and Mommy on the antique cars ride. (Grandma took the picture from the back seat, where she was holding Stazi.

Speaking of Stazi.

Mommy and a very short-looking Zeke get ready for the Scrambler ride.

You can't actually see Zeke in this picture, but I sure do look like I'm having fun.

Ride's over! Or maybe ride's about to begin; I may have got this picture out of order.

Zeke does this with his cars all the time. I have no idea why.

More car organizing. He can do this for hours.

Sometimes it's more fun to just take one car and make it go "vroom vroom" back and forth along the railing.

Zeke likes to help water the plants.

How can this possibly be comfortable?

Zeke's favorite dinner.

"Zeke, say cheese!"

How can this possibly be comfortable, part II.

Don't these look like the guiltiest two children you've ever seen?

"Is that you, Mommy?

Fun times on the front porch.

Beautiful boy.

...and beautiful girl!

Oh, so happy!

Muahahahaha! I am the king of this porch!

"I can fly!"

Check out Stazi's groovy new threads.

"Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Stayin' alive! Stayin' alive!"

Stazi in her exersaucer.

More exersaucer hijinks.

Daddy helps Zeke with his shoes.

Stazi really likes her jumpy thing.

Whoa! I'm backwards!

I mean, Stazi really really likes her jumpy thing.

"I LOVE MY JUMPY THING!"

Lunchtime. And just look at those pretty blue eyes.

Uploaded 7/6/04

Zeke eats a marker.

...and thinks it's hilarious.


"Our trip to Nashville"

Grandma meets Stazi!

And Aunt Monica!

Zeke in the hotel room. (This is why Zeke gets his very own bed these days.)

Grandma, Zeke, and Stazi have breakfast.

Big hug from Aunt Mandy!


"July 4 at Casa B"

Zeke "helps" assemble the BBQ grill.

Just before this picture, Zeke said, "No picture now please".

Daddy looks like he really appreciates all the "help"!

Zeke contemplates the mayhem he could cause with his new wrench.

Stazi chills in her (formerly Zeke's) exersaucer.

Zeke thinks maybe Stazi would like to help put one of the wheels on the grill.

The family comes over for a visit.

Aunt Amanda and Uncle Josh are entertained by something Zeke is doing off-camera.

Yes, Keith is now officially a Real Dad.

Mommy and a sleepy Stazi.

Zeke has apparently just done something very hilarious.

Joe and Amanda have fun times with Stazi.

...while Grandma is still having some hilarious antics with Zeke.

...and Keith finally gets to play his cool "Landslide" board game! (Which of course he won.)

More fun times with Stazi.

"Have burger, will travel."

Josh's dad, Joe, and Jaren wait for the fireworks to start.

Josh, by his own admission, "cheeses up" this picture.

Zeke watches the fireworks.

Proud Daddy.

Stazi models this season's new "Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man" look.

Not even a week old and already she's playing with Zeke's toys.

"I'm ready for my diaper change, Mr. DeMille."

Stazi wakes up.

They call me... Squinty.

Sleeping like a baby.

Stazi starts giving Aunt Amanda ideas...

...and Zeke makes her rethink them.

Zeke examines the baby and decides that maybe she's a keeper...but just maybe.

Stazi close up!

Stazi extreme close up!

Nobody can resist making faces at a baby.

"With these pink socks I shall rule the world!"

Stazi chills with her uncle Joe.

Zeke generously shares Daddy storytime with his new little sister.

Ducky PJs are even cuter with a smile on top!

Daddy rocks Zeke to sleep.

Zeke sitting up again.

"Quit bugging me with that stupid camera, I'm just trying to get to my rattle!"

"Actually, that camera looks pretty good too."

"You talkin' to ME?"

Daddy's lap is the best lap.

Coolest outfit ever. (And it's not even his Halloween costume!)

Or this?

Zeke sits up.

Blocks are fun, but eating Mama's shoe is more fun.

Now that's a smug baby.

Ready to go in the backpack!

All loaded up and ready to go.

OK, maybe THIS is more fun than eating Mom's shoe.

This is definitely more fun than the shoe OR the blinds!

Ready to eat! Look how clean I am!

Seriously, where's the food?

That's more like it! Yummy avocados!

Avocados AND carrots! Mom's never going to get this out of the carpet!
