Happy Valentine's Day

This year I took the kids to get some pictures done for Daddy on Valentine's Day, they were a hit of course. Dani is 9 months old now and Chris is rapidly approaching 4. We are happy to report that after some stubbornness and a lot of patience...Chris has mastered the potty and has been accident free with the big boy undies for a week now. Dani is the queen of crawling and standing up, walking is just around the corner.

couldn't resist

Some pictures just have to be taken....there has to be a lightbulb joke out there for this one!

a little late

I realize that this is the February ....
but better late then never. Here are a few pictures of the kids from New Year's. Chris, Dani and I headed over to the Chance's with the Kundert's, Byington's and few other people. We had a nice dinner, played games and all the kids actually pretty much entertained themselves. Dani nodded off around 9pm but the rest of the kids fought the good fight and made it till 12am. Believe it or not for a bunch of 2, 3, and 4 year olds, they were in great shape. Granted I think Chris was asleep before I finished buckling him in the car seat on the way home. All in all we had a blast spending the New Year with friends!

the WHOLE francis family

When we were in Florida for our early Christmas, we took a family picture for Bryan's parents to use on their Christmas card. We introduced them to the ease of doing Costco Christmas cards....especially considering they sent out 800 cards. I don't think I have met 800 people in my lifetime, let alone have that many friends to send cards to.

switching over

If you have not already guessed it we are in the process of switching over to this blog from our previous site with mac. With the renewal coming up, FREE sounded better and better. So be patient as we figure things out here and get organized. We still have a link on here for the old site, it should be active for another month. Bryan has the camera at work with him tonight, otherwise I would post some recent pictures. I will just have to make sure that I don't post his pictures from work, I don't think you would like to so those.

Stay tuned for more...
