Grace's Joke

On special days we go to "old" McDonalds (as Grace calls it) and get happy meals for the kids. On this particular day I was eating something else. Grace asked my where my happy meal was and I said that they don't make happy meals for grownups. She said, " Mama you don't have a happy meal you have a sad meal," and started laughing. Then she said, " I made a funny joke." She was right on two counts: it was a funny joke, and it was a pretty sad meal of tuna salad.

Charlie's Chair


Charlie loves his new chair. Especially the fact that he can get in and out all by himself.

Charlie watches the rain


Grace is a robot.

Grace decided two things on this day. 1. boxes are great fun to make robot heads with and 2. Red shorts are cool even on cold days with long sleeve shirts.

Charlie struts his stuff.

I swear we do dress this boy, but he is slightly messy when he eats...ok you saw the yogurt pictures. Case closed.

They're cousins, identical cousins

Admit it, you were just humming the Patty Duke theme. Charlie and Max play together, or at least next to each other.

If I were king, I could wear as much yougurt as I liked!


What do you mean we are out of yogurt!


Playing outside

Yeah for sunny days and sandboxes. Even louder cheers for big sisters who like to sweep.

Can't reach the pedals, but ain't life great!


Busted in the Pantry

Charlie realizes that the gig is up...he's in the pantry and trying to get into Gracie's playdough!

Chocolate Cake...again

The great thing about birthday cake is that it lasts for more than one day!

Love those Smiles


Charlie breaks into one of his heart melting grins.

Yeah for Birthdays


More Cake...


Hey, this cake is ok!


Cake, decorated by Grace


Grace believes that sprinkles make everything better. Unfortunately, they were the only part of the cake that Charlie didn't like!

Nothing runs like a Deere

It's never to early to learn that the only good tractors are green tractors.

Presents for Everyone!

If Charlie's Birthday means that Grace gets presents, then she is all for it.

Joe Cool

The key to any outfit, regardless of the amount of drool, is the proper accessory.

Charlie and Grandpa Bob

You know that Charlie is comfortable when he sucks his fingers. Looks like life is pretty good.
