Making Some Noise (briefly)

After spending several days at Grammy & Grandpa's, we needed some family time to goof off and recalibrate ourselves.

Here's Looking at You

Bottoms Up?

Evelyn's new favorite game is to put her pull-up diapers on her head. Occasionally, she enlists an accomplice in the game as well.

Counting the stacks

...just a little video to show off Evvie's counting abilities!

A package arrives...

Thanks for the Easter Gel Gems Grandma Sue!

Evvie had a blast putting up the perky first signs of spring in the window. There's some bare ground showing, but still a lot of snow here. The extra color is welcome.

Feathers and Popcorn Balls

Thanks for the stickers and feathers Grandma Sue and Grandpa Jim! This Easter greeting was, in fact, the first piece of mail that she's been able to open completely by herself. AS she is wont to do with sticky things, we were wearing the stickers before much time had passed.


Here's Evvie enjoying her popcorn ball from her party at daycare today!

Sittin' Pretty

We've been having a pretty fun time with the snow in the yard. This snowman (named "Frosty" of all things) presided over the building of a snow-slide, which Evvie just adores.

Perhaps I should use the past tense, as the milder weather of late has done a number on the sculptures since these photos were taken a week or so ago.

Wintertime Slide

Just a little video of goofing in the backyard.

Happy GIrls

While we while away the winter weather, we sometimes smile and play.

Great Hats and Bad Puns

A very talented friend is helping to ensure Evvie and Howie's ears stay warm through the long Maine winter. Thanks, Wendy!

We're mooved.

Evvie will be wearing this 'til the cows come home. The hat is truly bovine. It's tough to cowculate something like that. It will probably keep her warm for-heifer. I don't mean to be a cattle-tale, but Howie wasn't wearing his hat this morning. Are there any more puns? I'll have to ruminant on it...
