One way to ensure your child gets a good nap : make her row you around the lake.

This picture represents the pecking order of life: children, grownups, dogs. Don't let your dog boss you around, or you'll come home to find him in your hammock and you'll end up sleeping with the ants.

It didn't take Wesley long to figure out that you can get the filling out without eating the cookie part first.

Audrey's already thinking about where her next cookie is going to come from...

... and there it is.

Definitely don't take a picture of Karen eating peanut butter out of the jar...

Don't let those looks fool you... they're up to something.

When I was a baby, we didn't have any fancy videos or educational whatamabobbits. On rainy days, the only game we had to play was called 'Carry Water'.
IMG_1195.JPG
And once we were done with that game, we played 'Carry it Back'.

And also limbo.

This is the best way to end a busy day spent playing Row Daddy Around the Lake and Carry Water. Daddy mixes up the G&Ts and Babba reads the story.

For what game do you need a wooden scooter, an oversized necklace, a mechanical squirrel, and a tape measure? I don't know; I'm glad there are no live animals involved though.

No, I don't think you can smoke that one.

This is not cool. Please end it now.

There's just a complete breakdown of discipline here. Max is just not able to get much fear or respect with the cone on. And Audrey won't even wrap up her call before dinner.
IMG_1269.JPG
What do I have to do to get a little peace and quiet here while I eat my cereal? Sometimes, all I want to hear is *chew*, *chew*, *chew*.
IMG_1270.JPG
Sweet! I've got a bee in here.

Paris and Nicole want to meet you where? I don't know about that, umm... you'll have to ask your dad.

Sure you can jump off the couch. Think of me like a fun uncle; the last thing you'll here from me is rules!
IMG_1276.JPG
I'm just going to brush my teeth and finish up this call, I'll see you in 10.

A phone. You speak into it, and people hear you many miles away. Brilliant!
