Toothless!

Sunday it was loose.

Monday it was out.

Tuesday it was a dollar.

Thanks, Tooth Fairy!

Dance Recital

Grandma Sue and Grampa Jim came north for Evelyn's dance recital on Saturday. She started excited for the rehearsal, and didn't stop her excitement until all was well over. In Evvie's words, "I want to do that a hundred and a million more times!"

The program:

Children's Museum

Tuesday was a reta day to go to te Children's Museum with the kids. FAMILY FIELD TRIP! We spent hours and hours there, doing some of the following:


Both kids were super-serious about their face paint.




They played for quite awhile in the vet room, giving shots, locking animals in their cages and knocking them on the floor. The usual stuff.






Evelyn got temporarily thrown in the Brig by some pirates, but don't worry, Levie saved her.



After that, we headed to the Deering Oaks for a picnic lunch (including oranges).

Hot or Thirsty?

It's supposed to be a wacky sprinkler. Turns out it's just as good a straw.

We're getting a puppy!

And we're so excited about it, Hallie took the kids there for a visit with the soon-to-be newest addition to our family. Aren't they cute?


Yes, she's a Golden Retriever, and that's her mom, Moxie, in the foreground. We can't wait until July 5!

Wacky Family

Not entirely sure what brought this about. Use your imagination.

Visit to Grammy's

A nice trip to Grammy and Grampa's house yielded a few cute pix of Levi (and Grampa)



Levi gets a push and...


Grampa gets a push.

Bradbury Mountain Hike

We took a nice family hike at Bradbury Mountain State Park this weekend. It was pretty foggy at the top, but the kids both surprised us with their stamina. (Of course it's not a long hike, but they're little). Levi was especially into the climbing and just motored up the thing. Check out the video to hear him chatter about it.

End of the bloom

We'd been meaning to take some shots in front of the crabapple tree while it was still in bloom.... Pretty near made it, too. Fun pix of Hallie & the kids just having a nice afternoon at home.







Later Evvie took the camera and took a few shots of mama.
