since we’ve been back from ny, the weather has been glorious, so many park outings have been in order. picnic lunch with friends. goofy boys. laughing girls. the blackberry thief. car frame fun. on another nice day, my pal kristin boone took some pictures of mostly anna. some isaac. we’ve also played with some play-doh, […]
lid kid everyday life
about the kids
i thought i was about due (overdue, that is) for an update on the lid kids. first up: ike. for starters, he can’t smile on command. we get pictures home from school almost weekly, and in each one, he looks like this. as you know, from the THREE birthday parties at the end of january, […]
78 degrees.
on friday (4 days after we woke up to snow), it was 78 degrees. so, after lunch, we busted out the new baggie of happy meal toys, the colored rice and some scoops and containers, and headed to the deck….
