Baby baby

Linus loves to lie on his back and grab onto his feet. This to me is the quintessential baby pose.

Sisters

While Daddy was feeding Linus, the ladies decided to have a little photo shoot on a perfect day in the city.

Grandbabies

Somewhere, someone is able to get three adults and two children to pose perfectly. Alas, I had to settle for a nice picture of the boy. :)

The artist at work

IMG_1805.JPG
Zofie is passionate about her drawing and loves intense colors---frequently inking the page until the paper is just about to dissolve. The result is really interesting.

Maeta's Art

IMG_1806.JPG
While Zofie inks a single page, Maeta draws wide arcs across an entire ream of paper. The difference between the two is remarkable.

Hacked!

I put my first web page up in 1993 and during the past 14 years through countless ecommerce, other commercial, and nonprofit sites, I have never been hacked---until today and on my kids' website. Thanks to my sister for noticing...new pics are going up shortly since I know you check twice a day.

Christmas Jammies

IMG_1790.JPG
Seasonally wrong, but considering that the girls were 5 months (Linus is 3 months) at Christmas in 2004 and wore these jammies, it seemed only appropriate to get a picture of him (and they are really cute).

Lounging around

IMG_1787.JPG
Maeta and Zofie spent countless hours sitting on this blanket; it has now been given over to Linus. As you can see, M still feels drawn to it when she needs to lounge about.

The shape of things to come

IMG_1772.JPG
Team Repptian takes a minute to watch the Fisher-Price fish tank (the closest we have to domesticated animals in the house). Reminds me of their older cousins all huddled around a computer game....

3 Months Old (Yesterday)

IMG_1745.JPG
Parent of the year is already gone---with the third child, we cannot even properly record the months as they pass. Not entirely true, I think we are actually doing better with him than we did with the girls. With him we forget; with them we simply did not know what day of the week it was most of the time.

While I was away on a business trip, the ladies (and boy) went to Saint Louis where the twins had their first experience at Grandpa's "Yard Care Camp".

On his belly

Linus started rolling over in mid-July and is now happily examines the world from his belly.
