The latest addition to our family

OK, So this is Buster, Woof, Rascal, Jack, Rastas, or Buster
Woofie John Loon.....and Itchy.....not sure which one
will stick...right now he answers to them all!

WOW Brandon, I can't see you or the puppy......I love little boys in camo!
Ok, so by now you've guessed it.....we all got new sunglasses on our trip to pick up the puppy!

This is our fashion statement angel......Princess Brooklyn!

Yes, Baby Boy, I see those big beautiful brown eyes! You are sooo cool!

Larkin asked us the other day "how did I get such a wonderful Mommy and Daddy?" When I was able to breath again, I said "and how did I get such a wonderful little boy? Larkin said, "I don't know, God gave me to you!" Yes He did Little Man, yes He did!

"Life is not measured by the breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath...."

Larkin's Imagination....

Who could ever forget the Red Ranger!?!


Yes, It is Anakin Skywalker and we all know who he later became....of course, I always get to be the leading lady, when he is Anakin, I am Padama Amidala.... When he is in Star Wars Mode, he will also be Luke Skywalker or Obiwan Kenobi or just plain old Ben Kenobi......

This is the coolest Capt Jack.....oops, excuse me, that is Captain Jack Sparrow.....Arrrgh, Matey.

I love the dreadlocks!

When he is Batman (Bruce Wayne) I get to be Barbara Gordon (aka BatGirl!) Awesome! Daddy gets to be Alfred! Hehe!

When Larkin was 2 he could tell you (and he still can) that Batman is Bruce Wayne, Spiderman is Peter Parker, and Superman is Clark Kent! Now, just how many people know that!?!

Every Moment of Every Day, Larkin uses his imagination to the fullest....When he was just a liitle boy, I would say "Larkin" to which his response would be "Mom, I'm not Larkin, I'm ???? (whoever he chose to be at the moment). He used to say to me I'm Deananern...That was a hard one, but thank goodness, Daddy finally figured it out. He was the Green Lantern! These are some highlights of the past few "characters" that we live with on a daily basis. As O and J always say, Larkin is the only 4 year old with his own "Theme Song".....we always here him humming and then he appears.....he's (whoever????) today!

Uncle Chris's Dad

Update: Jim is doing much better...

Larkin's Valentine's Party 2008
