Applesauce the pony
Another annual block party in the books! This year, Applesauce the pony came to visit and Xanna made it just in time!
“I’m so strong”
“Yes you are!” Setting up for Meryl’s birthday party tomorrow. Frank and I both had a couple of moments today realizing that Meryl is growing up. Has it really been almost three years?
A queen and her castle
Meryl’s teacher at school sent us this picture of Meryl’s creation that she called her ‘castle.’ She was beaming with pride and told her teacher that we needed to see her castle.
Holmes is nine months old
Nine months! And tonight, he graduated to the big bathtub. He’s achieved proficiency in sitting, crawling, grabbing, eating, clapping…and tipping over Lummi’s water bowl. Big month!
“I’m sneaking”
Meryl’s putting her creative genius to work with nightly attempts of never going to sleep. Last night’s shenanigans topped the cake, and we still can’t stop laughing about catching her in the hall when she said, “I’m sneaking!”
Happy Birthday, Tito!
Steak and mushrooms, and chocolate cake! (And, a rollicking game of ‘Tito, chase me!’ afterwards to run through all that sugar.)
