Sleeping on the job

I guess the chair is more comfy then his bed. Every night once we put him to bed we are treated to the recitation of "night night"...to every train he owns and sometimes other things in the room too. "nigh night percy, nigh nigh james..."

Up pops the Sun

the dew falls away
Leaving many mud puddles of joy for tommy boy.

We may need some new shoes....


relaxing on the picnic pad after mud puddle play..with pals

Wearing all the Hats

Also could be called, wearing all the hats dad wants to wear and his gloves too....

Sweet Dreams are made of these...

One of the benefits of not sleeping anymore...is being able to capture this on film

A little more red please

Can you say Irish...much

If you can't beat them....

let them run free. Apparently today is no clothes day at our house....so you know what that means...we are definately not going outside! It's not even laundry day! Okay everyday is laundry day with this guy but...I can't figure out why he won't wear clothes today.

When you gotta go...

We spend a lot of time in the kitchen here, after work especially. The buddy got into the action last night, we heard a dragging noise and then he appeared around the corner with his potty chair....

Weekend update

Aunt Lauren and Moo enjoy some quiet time at this weeks Quilting...



Mama, your face is swollen!


And here are the pictures that really capture the speed with which our days go bye..

Not Winnie the Poo

the face of someone who has gone through five diapers on twenty minutes.....



we won't show the face of the perosn cleaning up the diapers or doing the laundry...its ugly..

When One runs out of things to do....

there is always decorating the cat...

Hat's off

In our world...wearing a hat means "I'm going outside"

Here we see someone holding their hat on to their noggin even though it is HAILING outside, and our pants were so wet we took them off before we came into the house...because they're may be a chance we can go outside again!
