In the "good old days"

Here he is as a newborn, weighing 11 pounds.

And here is his proud big sister!

His lovely mama and...

...his very proud papa!

Kind of chubby, wasn't he!?!

Bedtime?

Flyboy.

OK, if you can tell me what he's doing here, it would be a huge help!  :)

Uh-oh! Finger in the frosting!

He was never really that fat - just something he stuffed under his PJs!

Cute little "grin" isn't it?

He tried to retrieve his toothbrush from the tub, but failed

miserably- as may be seen by the wet clothes and the unhappy face!

Playing store - I don't think that I'd want to

go to a cashier that made faces like that!

Mama's li'l helper. 

The guy in the coonskin hat.

There's nothing like a popsicle for a little kid on a hot summer day!

Cause.....

.....and effect.

The gardening pals.

Apparently, he's very happy to be turning 5! 

 (10 years ago - how time flys!)

The very proud big brother of Christian Zadok Armour.

The observant big brother observing the cute little brother.

Elijah was really into chess that year and requested a chess cake.  We still play sometimes and he almost always beats me (the only 2 times that I ever beat him turned out to be a complete accident on my part!)

The very pruod big brother of Jonathan Edward Armour.
