About a Boy

Jack is getting cuter by the minute, not only in looks but in personality as well (obviously I'm biased). He is becoming quite the "little boy"... although he has been known to partake in the occasional tea party. Recently, he has been really into playing with cars, climbing, and swinging like a monkey from the oven door (that's a safe one). Some of his hobbies include: wrestling with his Teddy, making spit bubbles, flirting with old ladies and waitresses, knocking over block towers, and swiftly stealing and drinking any and all sippy cups or bottles within reach.

Whose kid is this?

It still amazes me that Annabelle actually under-stands me when I ask/tell her to do some-thing... She even occasionally gives an appropriate and logical response! A little while ago Annabelle and Jack were playing on the three season porch (which has been doubling as a play room since season 4 ended) and I noticed that it was getting close to dinner time. I asked Annabelle if she wanted to have dinner soon and she said "oh yes please Mommy"... Whose kid is this??? She had come into the kitchen at this point, so I told her that we have to go get Jack so that we can eat. She then ran over to the door and said "hey baby, you wanna have num nums?" "Come on, you have to get in your chair"... When did she become so grown up?

Happy Easter!

A few pictures from today:
Annabelle and Jack strike a pose before heading over to Nana and Papa's house...

The super bunny cake made an appearance this year. Annabelle was so excited about the bunny cake and had planned to eat the whole left ear all by herself, but when it actually came down to it she opted for ice cream instead... on the ride home of course she kept asking where the cake was.
A few weeks ago my mother gave Jack a blue Polo shirt, apparently my nephews Danny and Michael each got one too! By some very weird coincidence they all wore the shirts and tan trousers today...

What Are They Up To?

I imagine the conversation went something like this: "Listen sister, I'm taking charge of the driving today". "Well then Baby, I'm going to bite your arm".

Viva Las Vegas

I was going to post a few pictures from our Anniversary weekend in Las Vegas but then I remembered the old saying: "what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas". Ok, we weren't really THAT bad... the photos definitely were though. After sifting through them I decided that it best no one ever see them... then I changed my mind, sorry guys! So here are some very scary pictures:

Mr. & Mrs. Drunky celebrating their 5th wedding Anniversary... are we both wearing lipstick?

Jenny and Mark give a little cheer of excitement after having sent their dinners back...

Tracy and Kristen patiently await more booze

Nick and Mark enjoy a few Margaritas at Margaritaville...

and later on that evening Mark showed up with his new bird...

Luckily she was called back to the mother ship before he had a chance to drink her pretty!

Looking very tired the morning of departure

Strollin'

Since we've had some nice weather lately, our new favorite after dinner activity has been strolling around the neighborhood in the little red wagon. Annabelle and Jack have a grand ole time kicking each other, and having competitions to see who can laugh and scream the loudest! The day this picture was taken (Friday) we made the mistake of letting them take the balls along for the ride... that day we had the "who can make Mommy and Daddy run the farthest" competition!!
