A Really Long Post

As usual it has been a while so this post is really long. Without further adieu...


We took a little trip to the beach to visit Ooloo & Poppie. Mamaw the Great came along for a colorful and interesting ride.


William got a little silly and earned the nickname "Strainer Spitz".


...wonder who taught him that.


This is a photo of mommy at the same age as William. Those may be mommy's eyes and coloring but the rest is all daddy!


More home improvements (this was during, not the actual improvement). Our bedroom went way downhill before it got better.


And for a few days we set up camp in the den.

-{I almost feel like I need to add an intermission here}-


William loves giving Neifi hugs. He hasn't been as successful with kisses.


As I am late in reporting, we got snow here earlier this week. And not just the typical wussy amount that NC gets but a real snow - like a postcard amount of snow.


It was lovely and William has enjoyed looking out the window and talking about it.


He did not enjoy being in it. Once he fell and touched it and realized how cold and wet it is he was ready to head inside and take his hat off.


Maybe he will enjoy it when he gets older. But for now we have had a great time admiring it from inside.


This is the control panel on his Little Einstein rocket ship. Note that only three continents are named (leaving out a few important and rather large ones). Also note the image on the left...when he pulls the lever different places of interest from around the world pop up. As I took the photo he pulled the lever and the Statue of Liberty popped up. His rocket loudly proclaimed, "Wow! It's the Great Wall of China". Einstein would be proud.

Great pictures! He takes great pictures. GAP sure missed the boat with their model search!

Thank you for your kind words. I am sure the Gap chose some pretty cute kids but if only they knew how he can work a strainer.
