this was cracking me up at lunch today.
tilly played along, but i think jeremy was beyond embarrassed. still - he was a good sport!
bubbe and poppy were in town last weekend. the weather was bad, the cubs lost (the rockies won!), but we made great apple pie, chocolate cake and butternut squash soup.
and tilly would spend all day reading at the bookstore if you let her.
Baby Girl likes to put everything to bed. We've been making sleeping bags for a long time. I kind of like the latest - for McD's Oz toys or Princess Polly's - cute fabric with wool felt lining - quick and easy makes a happy baby (and mommy!).
I'm sure he's never thought of himself as being in the middle but in this group he is...
My second brother is just a little younger then me (although still willing to break bones which I'm not).
Another excellent Uncle - I was so proud of him getting his shoes wet on a bitterly cold Chicago Thanksgiving to build his little niece a sandcastle. (That's true 'best uncle' competition spirit - and love!)
... and that I happen to have 5 brothers.
This is a picture of my eldest brother (in front of a big cloud off of Mount St. Helens - that's cool).
We spent a great deal of time together as kids playing Super Mario, eating chinese food (or mac and cheese if we had to cook). He's turned into a great uncle - he can sit on the floor for hours and play (he's pretty happy to have an excuse to play with the playdough and paints).
I guess I'll have to start a series here - it's a good place to begin!
Baby Girl is getting into crafts - I suppose it would be hard for her not to notice my completely overwhelimg and overgrown craft area in the back of our house. Our new most favorite acitivity has to be melty beads. I want to be patient and let her do them on her own, but really, I just want to make my own...
My husband is a professional photographer. We have at least 3 pro-level Canons around. I love disposable cameras. And I love developing them when I don't remember when they're from. We just got some pictures back today from Christmas in Tucson. I love this shot of Baby Girl - outside in the desert, as the sun sets, perched on a chair in her Christmas dress-up.
Baby Girl and I made our way to the front of the Aspen Ski Company website!
