Charlie wants a box of granola bars and a skateboard for his birthday. No wait. He wants a skateboard and skis. No wait. He wants bay blades and Legos.

From 530 am on a constant “I can’t find my blue ninja”
It’s really hard to keep track of someone’s teeny tiny item. But we try hard.

Huck works very hard. Very hard. Her constant barking and herding may be annoying at time-even most of the time- but I’ve never known a worker to be so passionate about her work. We take her to the park or waking through jam pond and she makes sure no one is alone for a step. Once at home she some times takes time off. You will notice she is off the clock by her laying in the floor with her head under a chair as a sign of “do not disturb.”

Teddy (as 3 friends leave from a play date at our house that’s ended) crying “I don’t want them to go. I don’t want to be alone!!!”
ALB “But you have three brothers and sisters inside. And two babysitters. And two parents.”
Teddy “But I also need two play dates”
Obviously Teddy loves having as many kids in the house as I do.

Charlie and Teddy are very excited for St Patrick’s day (they take after their mother with their enthusiasm for all holidays. I’m trying to come up with what to do besides making green pancakes and homemade green milkshakes. Maybe build a leprechaun trap?

Teddy was carrying the “old fluffy bunny” to the park to play soccer saying ” he is my fan”.

I sing show tunes to a bathtub audience that requests constant signing.
Today Scottie actually sang the words “broadway baby night”.

Charlie has been waiting for this day since he could talk. The day he gets cleats and shin guards. And to make it even better he has leant Teddy one of his shin guards.

Grandpa Allan helped teach Charlie to ride his bike without training wheels this weekend. It reminded me of Dada Bayly teaching me to ride my first two wheeler–it was red. I crashed into a tree when he let go but it was so much fun. He also taught me to tie my shoes, ride a pony (and not get kicked), and pick blackberries when I was really little.
