Princess Bug

Bug got a TRUNK FULL of dress up clothes for Christmas. Here she is as Cinderella.

Merry Christmas, everyone!

This is a very happy little boy with a gingerbread house he made during his last week of school. We finished eating it yesterday. I have to say that the frosting was pretty good even after being dried out.

Christmas with a 2 and a 4 year old is wonderful. Everything is exciting. Favorite gifts? Elliot got a Nerf dart gun from Elsie. Today it topped the charts. Right up until Michael nailed me in the face as I came in from feeding Stripes. Tomorrow we're going to return a gift and get more guns. It's ON.

Feeding the birds

So we thought it would be the opposite. We thought Elliot would freak out from the closeness of the birds. But it was Elsie that cowered near me. Elliot loved it.

We just returned from a few days with grandma and grandpa on the beach in St. Pete. I have to say it was lovely. Grandparents are a wonderful thing. And we got two good sets.

Poor Stripes

You may not be able to see her in the first picture, but there is actually a cat under the pink Barbie blanket. Stripes endures all kinds of torture from our children. This is why she is only inside about 20 minutes per day. The kids love her. Whenever she scoots inside they both yell, 'Stripes is in the HOUSE!'
