Waiting for Sunday brunch


The first waffle was just about ready to exit the waffle maker when Henry decided to take his seat at the counter. You can see by the look on his face that he isn't leaving anytime soon and would really prefer 2 dallops of whipped cream, syrup on the side (and something for his bunny friend.) Whenever we'd say something to him he'd look away - as if to tell us he was simply invisible.

An alternative theory




Adalia is studying dinosaurs this week in school. She brought home a picture she made with ink stamps and was excited to show Finnian:

A: "Look at my dinosaurs, Finnian!"

F: "Oh! Let me see!"

A: "They got too stinky."

F: "What? They got too stinky?"

A: "Yeah, they all died because they got too stinky."

F: "Adalia! (giggle) They didn't get stinky. They got extinct."

A: "Oh, yeah. Extinct."

I don't know... I think she may be onto something.

Valentines Day



Beginning a blog on Valentines Day seemed sweet and enticing to me (it's a day for sweet and enticing, right?). So, I'll give it a try.


We had a perfect night. I couldn't ask for anything better.


Homeade pizza and smiles from our kids. (I think the smiles were all about the rootbeer!)


Happy Valentines Day.
